@EveHasWords @Gina Thanks for the nice words and for advocating for XWiki.
Also, what @Gina said it's true: We're hiring, and we're on the lookout for passionate people who want to contribute to building XWiki for the future.

DST-end is confusing, isn't it?

Hey, @EUCommission, fuck you too.

On Wednesday, EU Member States approved a change to the GDPR that would put the profit-making interests of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta and SpaceX over European's fundamental right to data protection. According to the approved text, processing personal data “in the context of AI” should automatically be lawful. In particular, Big Tech would be able to use all personal data collected over the past decades with virtually no restrictions, as long as this happens “in the context” of AI. Schrems: “Under the agreed text, the profits of AI companies would typically trump European’s fundamental right to privacy. This is nothing but a digital expropriation of Europeans.”

Second Bonus thought, a big thank you to the @php foundation and to all PHP's developers for their hard work. We love you guys ❤️

Computers were not a mistake.

The Internet was not a mistake.

The mistake was allowing everything to be about money and power rather than community building.

I know folks get real mad when I say this but in times of widespread security crisis, static sites sure are nice

I hope you all have Pipelines setup to test and deploy your PHP stacks .. #cd

Four shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be four. Five shalt thou not count, nor either count thou three, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Six is right out. Once the number four, being the fourth number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Private Key of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.

Today I learned that a rice cooker works because of a specially designed magnet that loses its magnetism at just over 100C (Curie point).

When you switch it on, a piece of metal sticks to the magnet, completing the circuit and heating on high. Heat stays on high until all of the water is absorbed or boiled off, at which point the temp rapidly climbs and the magnet drops the switch.
