@Greguti ce n'est pas le bon compte de @Sandrousseau qui semble vouloir tout migrer vers l'instance mastodon.top 😬

@TheBreadmonkey

WHAT?

Surely there's an international court of appeal...

@globalmuseum if you bring a librarian home and have this in your office, you're having sex

@floe @jwildeboer A sales person at the electronics store after we declined the wifi upgrade for the fridge: "ah maybe you are not into tech"

We are into tech, that is why we don't want a fridge to be on wifi.

@David J'ai l'impression que la culture français a aussi tendance à exacerber le problème, en donnant plus d'importance aux «principes» qu'aux résultats…

I've managed to get a new module up on Arca for the first time in a while: this one's a Websites 101 piece on using Arca to build simple static websites. This section covers getting set up with Astro, HTML, Markdown and a bit of very, very basic CSS.

I'm feeling good about having gotten it out because the state of the engineering fundamentals resources was bugging me. We're getting, little by little, somewhere better.

@steek_hutzee non so dove vivi, ma non vedo tutti questi lemming che, nascosti ai bordi della strada, aspettano il momento giusto in cui l'autista si distrae per buttarglisi improvvisamente sotto le ruote. Ogni giorno, invece, vedo automobilisti che violano il limite di velocità, invadono corsie, cambiano improvvisamente direzione, non si fermano alle strisce o ai semafori e uccidono o feriscono automobilisti, motociclisti, ciclisti e soprattutto pedoni

Comme chaque année, je suis à Lurs ! Aujourd’hui commencent les 74es Rencontres de Lure.

Les Rencontres réunissent chaque été des typographes, des éditeur·ices, des graphistes et d’autres passionné·es des lettres, des signes et des images.

Une riche programmation de conférences, d’expositions, d’ateliers et, surtout, des moments de partage plus ou moins graphiques.

Je retente cette année le compte rendu live ici 👀

@juergen_hubert To paraphrase an old quote from I Claudius, Trump is the rash that America comes out in. The disease is deeply embedded at a country level. The better presidents were more skilled at masking the symptoms.

Yes, there are good Americans, but their culture needs changing. It’s not going to survive anyway on its current rate of consuming five planets worth of resources a year.

@ListenBrainz Assholes, why should they do this…?

Thanks so much for your work people! ❤️

@Gina My mother did, aged 19

If one is trying to design efficient protocols, it makes more sense to start off making strong, realistic assumptions about the primitives that will be used. Based on the paragraph above, a pseudorandom function on 64-bit strings is an excellent starting point. As we describe below, it seems reasonable to adopt even more generous assumptions.

yeah we should make it give us back free secrecy if the global active adversary says sorry

@jwildeboer The stove in our new house inexplicably has WiFi. That's staying disconnected for sure 😬

Update: ListenBrainz is currently under attack from multiple distributed botnets.

We are doing our best to mitigate it, but (as almost always) they use masses of residential IPs, many UAs, and are almost impossible to block without also blocking legitmate users. Thank you for bearing with us! -a

I suppose I need to lookup algorithms for typechecking whether a pattern-match expression is complete? Or perhaps with interactivity this will wind up irrelevant.

And since this is a visual language... What would be more helpful: Should I synthesize catch-all branches? Or should I synthesize branches for all variants of a tagged-union?

I welcome input from functional programmers!

2/1!

Pwning the stuff on your desk with a bit of "AI" for reverse engineering. A frightening experience. And a hint for me to continue to move to devices that ideally don't have firmware at all or at the very least can run airgapped by default.
