I hope it's not just US but the world!

Went to Bluesky too, at the moment too much "orange man bad" and not really anything else in Discover. At least on Twitter you can still find some nice technical discussion after you weed out the "orange man good" parts.


I highly recommend taking a look at some tech starter packs, as i've found them to be very helpful in moving away from that feed. I agree that the political discussion is definitely still in that stage though


Sometimes, the orange man just is bad.


You can hide all political crap using muted words. Just exclude any tweets with the words election(s), Biden, Trump, Kamala, Bitcoin, trading and you're good.

All I get is AI and rockets now.


I haven’t muted anything on Bluesky but I have been careful to never follow anybody who talks about #uspol in their first few posts, or their own or somebody else’s gender identity, “fascists”, etc. Also I always hit “less like this” on divisive politics. My “Discover” feed had 1 divisive politics post out of 20, my “Following” feed had 4 out of 20. Gotta prune my following list a little.


What a uselessly glib way to summarize the state of politics today


>I find editing over SSH a last resort, though, as it introduces a lot of undesirable latency.

I suggest you give Zed a try then or even VS Code remote, just to compare. They're much better engineered than Emacs tramp.


I suggest you try it and compare it to tramp-mode and see for yourself how different it is(and just how much better it is to tramp-mode)


>But it's clear from Linus' comments that he just doesn't respect these volunteers because they happen to be from a particular country

If that would be the case no russian would have reached the maintainer status to anything related to the kernel.


Yeah, Safari is on manifest v3 for some years now. Please that recomend it over Chrome for adblocking are clueless.


Safari is much more limited than even manifest v3. Gorhill's mv3 extension, uBlock Lite, can't support Safari because Apple refuses to support half the web APIs necessary, despite constant requests and appeals, including directly by Gorhill to Safari's DevRel person.

Works fine for basic ads but more tracking goes through, which is silly.


Safari’s existence (in iOS, at least, for now) is what keeps Chrome from unilaterally determining the future of the web.



No; your link immediately waters down its claims: “at least that's not the primary effect”.

It needn’t be primary to be important. If iOS didn’t enforce Safari, we’d see a lot more “only works in Chrome” signs on sites and “emerging standards” would be added to Chrome without much chance of Firefox keeping pace.

Apple’s motivations are hardly pure, but as a FF user I’m glad iOS has the market share it does.


>I'm Allen, a high school student with an interest in programming, web development, and cybersecurity.

Very impressive!


Oh boy

What an amazing technical talent, sheer persistence, and excellent documentation and communication skills.

Not to mention the work ethic of responsible disclosure.

This person is going places!


> But then WordPress wasn’t replaced by an improved WordPress. Instead, fully managed proprietary solutions took over. You want to sell things online? Shopify. You need a landing page? Webflow or Squarespace. You want a blog? Substack or Beehiiv.

Unknowingly(I asssume) the author makes the best argument why Wordpress matter for the Web. None of those tools are free and open source.


Also, data portability. I think it's fantastic that WordPress has a native import/export feature.


Well neither is WordPress, in practice.


> https://codex.wordpress.org/License

It looks pretty free and open source to me, in practice!


That is in theory, not in practice.

While it is possible to use WordPress for free without any paid plugins, most professionals/businesses using WP do so for the extensibility and that, in practice, comes at a cost of either paid plugins or external developer time for custom coding.


> Containerization in the form of Jails

Can you share "jail images" in a similar way you would share a docker image?


Yes you can, "iocage export/import" or "iocage fetch" with export you have a single compressed file (the zfs filesystem) and a manifest file...that's it.

However you can also use podman (aka docker) or other "Container-tools":

https://wiki.freebsd.org/Containers


iocage has been archived: https://github.com/iocage/iocage


It gets internally developed:

https://github.com/freebsd/iocage

As part of the FreeBSD-Project itself, since the original developer (FreeNAS?) abandon it.


Ah good to know, I wish that information would have been easier to find.


It can be done. I do it every few days, so the mechanisms to do that exist, but there is no agreed upon exchange format to form a community around to reuse work packaging application deployments.


> there is no agreed upon exchange format to form a community around to reuse work packaging application deployments.

Wasn't the OCI Image Format an attempt at this? Obviously it hasn't become THE format but I thought there was effort towards it a while back.


Not really though I think there are some half-baked projects that aimed to do that. You can get somewhat close by doing a `zfs send` to a file. You still need the jail configuration though (I suppose you could put that _into_ the filesystem.)

There's no "jailhub" that I'm aware of but could be completely wrong. IIRC there is some risk of importing a zfs dataset that you didn't create as the data stream is sent straight through the kernel.


What is the reason to run 'sleep 20m'?


exits (and so restarts) every 20min, e.g ensuring there's no hung sshd on the other side for longer than that.

IIRC if there's an active connection on the forwarding thingy, that ssh command won't exit until the forwarded connection is closed, so this won't interrupt an active forwarded connection every 20min.
