Here's my 6 hour conversation with @dhh, a legendary programmer, creator of Ruby on Rails, author, and race car driver. This was a fun and inspiring conversation on everything from the future of programming & AI to the nature of happiness & productivity to the value of family, getting married and having kids.
X limits video length to 6 hours. So this full convo doesn't fit (by a few minutes). So, the first 6 hours are here on X. The full version is up everywhere else (see comment).

Switzerland now requires all government software to be open source zdnet.com/article/switzerlan…

Signal strongly opposes this proposal.
Let there be no doubt: we will leave the EU market rather than undermine our privacy guarantees.
This proposal--if passed and enforced against us--would require us to make this choice.
It's surveillance wine in safety bottles.
🇬🇧🚨Beware: The #ChatControl proposal which has been stalling could be adopted by EU governments after all. France is considerung to give up its resistance.
The "compromise": Either you agree to have your chats scanned or you can no longer share&receive pictures/videos and links!

The best encoder and decoder ever. The founder refused 55 million dollars for it to keep it free...
Crazy, right?
True opensource mentality.-
VLC has the simplicity of a screwdriver from the user's end but it is a beast under the hood.

Thank you to everyone who brought this article to our attention. We agree that customers should not have to pay for unauthorized requests that they did not initiate. We’ll have more to share on exactly how we’ll help prevent these charges shortly.

Your crappy employer: "we need you back in the office and torching 2 hours a day because we're bagholding CRE, our execs can't figure out how to use PM software and we just broadly hate you/want arbitrary control over your movements"
