Psychological safety isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s infrastructure. And right now, it’s being demolished at scale. When the companies reduce headcount and remaining employees have to absorb the work, while living with higher fear and lower trust. People go in survival mode, and risk burning out.

“the MMAGA companies” — @robin #PubConf2026

TIL crows, starlings and similar birds only *look* black to us — they’re actually very colorful in ways human eyes are unable to perceive. 🤯

Remember that next time people can’t see your “colors”.

Some colors just require different eyes.

CSS is DOOMed!

I've build DOOM in CSS and every wall, floor, barrel, and imp is a div, positioned in 3D space using CSS transforms.

Try it out! But... not every browser can handle it. This is taking the browser to its limit. Chrome has some issues. Safari too. Bugs will be filed.

When people are asking for alternatives to #Firefox, you might not want to suggest a Chrome-based¹ browser.

Just saying.

¹) I'm using not quite correct terminology to make the issue clear.

@mcc I think this is the first time I got this when pausing a streaming service.

With Google locking down Android are there any viable mobile OSs, not based on Android, usable as a daily driver besides #SailfishOS?

I haven't used any of the other mobile Linux OSs besides #Sxmo for a short while.

And "viable" is of course very subjective but minimally one should be able to make and receive calls without any issues, SMS, mobile data up to 5G and VoLTE, run a Signal client¹ and browser.

¹ @Mer__edith please start working on a client for Linux phones (talk with @rubdos)

Interesting blog post by @GeePawHill via @nightwhistler.

(I'm also trying very hard not to be a smug lisp weenie but even then tips from the blog still apply.)

"Ask Bing" seems new since Android 16.

How do I turn this off? A casual stroll through settings didn't turn anything up.

Is this specific to #GrapheneOS? I doubt it.

This ties in with a lot of @bert_hubert's recent articles about Europe needing to become more independent from the US wrt technology.

Also @Mer__edith after the talk I mentioned #SailfishOS to you. Which is, IMHO, the only viable alternative to iOS and Android at the moment.

I've been using it as a daily driver since 2013. It's made by ex-Nokia employees after Microsoft destroyed it.

Attended a great talk yesterday at @dedependance hosted by Nuria Ribas Costa with @Mer__edith and Evelyn Austin (@bitsoffreedom) about #Signal, AI and Europe's "Big Tech Initiatives" (amongst other things).

They had an interesting perspective on how Europe can catch up on the US with regards to Big Tech, "the cloud"¹, hyperscalers, etc.

Their perspective was: should we even want this? Should we want to copy the US's Big Tech template and perhaps end up like them?

¹ such a dumb term

Nice talk by @zeno4ever about demo scene history and how it still evolves in the current day.

Included some nice live examples!

Great and very fun talk by Sara Vieira about mental health and not being ashamed talking about it.

These kinds of diverse subjects is why I like Joy of Coding.

@bagder on stage at Joy of Coding 2025 talking about the history of #curl and how to stay sane developing a hugely popular open-source project.

#JoyOfCoding #JoyOfCoding2025

Great talk by Hannes Mühleisen of #DuckDB about tables being a fundamental technology to civilization and not dismissing databases, SQL & ACID just because some implementation are getting old in the tooth.

DuckDB sounds awesome and I know @bert_hubert is a big fan.

@dthompson @flypig @jackdaniel ☝️I think one of you showed interest for this in the past?

I released the first alpha of my social media meta-client yesterday. So far only for #SailfishOS but Android's coming too after I've figured out all the Play Store stuff.

Bizar dat met vier personen met de trein heen en weer van Delft naar Amsterdam bijna twee keer duurder is dan met de auto.

Trein: €130
Auto: parkeren Museumplein max €60 en benzine ~€5-10
