RE: https://social.nikkasystems.com/@nikkasystems/116504140977027189

Jag instämmer i vad @karlemilnikka och Peter rekommenderar organisationer om vad gäller #ClaudeMythos i detta avsnitt av #BliSäker. Men ser samtidigt risken att många säkerhetsavdelningar nu kommer fixera än mer på för dem tekniskt begripligt och externa hot, fortsätta prioritera ner det som redan i nuläget kostar sina organisationer enorma summor, och risker, i form av produktivitet och annan verksamhetsnytta.

De 2 viktigaste det handlar om är:

1 - Det ska vara lätt att göra rätt
2 - Kunskap

Jag blev rätt mycket mer optimistisk om framtiden efter läst den här superintressanta artikeln 🫠

"De tror att dagens ekonomiska system går mot kollaps"

Känns både tryggt och lugnande 🥰

If you are like me and rarely read the #ToS #TermsOfService on websites, as when creating an account.

Then https://tosdr.org/en is worth checking to get the am idea of the #BadStuff you agree to.

Have you #Disable to deny #GitHub to train AI on you yet?

If not, do it here: https://github.com/settings/copilot/features - it is on by default of course.

@calum

I've come across the odd ones stuck in that ((((LISP)))) world.

1+ year ago I went vscode -> :neovim: and haven't looked back. Absolutely loving it with #LazyVim.

RE: https://fedi.simonwillison.net/@simon/116256849534109614

I like what Simon is writing in his blog about this. In particular about the forkability of the tools. Backed up by quoting Armin Ronacher:

- "even in the worst possible future this is a very forkable and maintainable thing"

#Astral #uv #ruff #ty #OpenAI

I don't trust anything that #OpenAI say or promise. Now they're buying #Astral https://openai.com/index/openai-to-acquire-astral/ - and gains control over #Ruff, #uv and #ty.

That the "Astral team will join the Codex team at OpenAI and over time, we’ll explore deeper integrations" - makes me wonder how well these really great tools will keep functioning stand alone in the future.

Can I keep being depended on them for managing my :python: projects?

AI companies are gaining al the more control of the toolchain! #worrying

@mike

🍰 and 🥂 time while 🥳 #congrats

Great overview. Just want to add that Signal is #OpenSource an their #SignalProtocol (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_Protocol) is used by quite a few other messaging apps. Including Whatsapp and Google.

@hehemrin @Anders_S

Jeff ger en bra summering, och lite till, om det vi gått igenom i den här tråden: https://youtu.be/bZJ7A1QoUEI

Att GitHub nyligen lagt till en #killswitch för repo-ägare att stänga av PR för projekt kände jag inte till. Men är ju tyvärr talande för hur illa det har hunnit bli.

Open Source-gemenskapen är grym, så de kommer sannolikt klura ut bra sätt att lösa situationen på. Kommer bara ta frustrerad tid mer.

#TheBoss is not holding back ♥️

@scottjenson @[email protected] @leanderlindahl @HennaVirkkunen @dgoldsmith @Mastodon

Exponentially harder I would say.

For something like federated Community Notes an #OptIn is probably needed, with a set of governing rules that must be followed to qualify.

@[email protected] @leanderlindahl @HennaVirkkunen @dgoldsmith @Mastodon

Asking @scottjenson about if #CommunityNotes is something being considered for the future?

The other thing I will do is to use both Vim and Neovim.

:vim: for local system admin
:neovim: with LazyVim for dev and other use

The idea here is to create my own custom .vimrc tuned for local system admin stuff, that can me reused everywhere so it is the same on all machines. Including when I log in remote.

#Vim #NeoVim #LazyVim

Damn how easy #uv have made it for managing :python: projects.

This was the first time I used it to upgrade the #venv and I just stared at the screen for like 10 seconds completely dumbfounded 🤪

#python

Today I must learn what #GrubRescue is, and how I get myself out of the pickle ending up there on #shazbot.

:linux: delivers learning every day 🤓

@jimsalter

It is the video version of #clickbate mate.

:zorin: installed on #mindy and thus far I am very pleased with both look and feel on this #AcerSwift3 with #Ryzen4700u laptop.

Only thing I couldn't quickly sort out is the Fingerprint Password Settings app in the #zorinOS repo.

Other than that I have no problem seeing why it has become a popular choice for those with #Win10 that Microsoft gave a 🖕 to about upgrading to #Win11.

That would make it:

:fedora: for #shazbot the Workstation
:archlinux: for #mork the daily driver laptop
:bazzite: for #mearth the dual boot play machine
:zorin: for #mindy the easy2use laptop

🤔 I am going to enjoy that diversity.

Reordered just to make it #FABZ 😆

@brettcannon

In your specific example, assuming the project is using https://semver.org/, I would reevaluate - thinking I got it wrong since I know you are so much more experienced than me.

However, my main reason for making it show easier, including for the --version, is that there are a lot of x.y.z projects that isn't #SemVer.

https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/version-specifiers/#version-specifiers list quite a few.

What if pyproject.toml had something like:

[project]
name = "demo"
version-scheme = "SemVer 2.0.0"
version = "0.1.0"

@brettcannon

Generally I find SemVer as the best versioning scheme. One of the few exceptions is for OS's, where #CalVer makes more sense.

What would be a great improvement, especially for #SemVer, is if it would show better that a project is using it. Both in the repo and like here when doing "--version" in the CLI. Icing on the cake would be if release date also shows:

> python -V
Python 3.13.7 SemVer 2025-08-14

RE: https://fosstodon.org/@ThePSF/115537801363805637

The resent show of courage to say no to $1.5 million, because the strings attached failed to pass core principles of the :python: community (see https://www.msn.com/en-us/education-and-learning/computer-science-and-programming-learning/the-python-software-foundation-has-turned-down-a-1-5-million-us-government-grant-amid-ethical-concerns/ar-AA1PzfR1) made it easy for me to quickly stop procrastinating by becoming a proper supporting member of #ThePSF.

With automatic annual renewal ✅

@calum

Recently I added #direnv to my terminal. Now when I cd to a :python: repo its .venv is automatically sourced. Including picked up by :neovim: when running it there. All needed is that .envrc with "layout uv" in the repo root.

And, as seen in the screenshot, #starship is also picking it up.

Adding this kind of cleverness on system level, instead of a GUI monolith, takes using and developing to completely new levels.

AMD has already released its first #openSIL #BIOS for one of their CPU architectures, specifically #Zen4:

https://youtu.be/JplSooSb30o

This is quite big, as it means they are replacing its #ClosedSource AGESA with an #OpenSource BIOS.

And it will be the future for newer Zen's too.

More on AMD and openSIL: https://www.basicinputoutput.com/2025/01/amd-opensil.html

This weekend I will install Windows 11 25h2 on my new dual boot monstermachine build. So naturally I am preparing myself by watching https://youtu.be/r3XLQMsQGGk

@scottjenson

But, we also have the race to find the #HolyGrail - that for AI is AGI.

The premise is simple: The game is over then - The one getting #AGI first will rule the world.

That has roped world politics into the mess, especially between USA and China.

Thus, we have a perfect storm fueled by tech companies and bad leaders in cahoot, who don't care about anything else than not letting the other side getting there first.

Our only hope is that this #superbubble burst as soon as possible.

Well hello there #Vimium for :firefox: and :chromium:

Oh how though will make me even less use the mouse 🤪

It 🤯 me how clever #UUID7 decouples creation time from the local file metadata when saved, and/or a db-column/key.

Reading https://uuid7.com/ I am beginning to see how using it will simplify so much of the idea I'm working on. Both for single use and scale nicely to all the more complexed distributed collaboration.

It means I can probably use just one UUID7 instead of the current design with multiple data pieces and lots of complex code/logic.

Can it really be so elegant 🤔

@bagder

Watched it and yes, DOT delivered another good introduction to a useful DX tool. I know it will make me use #cURL exponentially more.

It also made me install #xh as a complement. Both because I like how colors make it easier to analyse, and for it providing a less complex command for basic stuff.

But also for its "--curl" option ;)

It was so sweet to wake up at 🕚, after a well timed #AW last night. Quite restored after a completely crazy work week that felt like 347% overloaded by stuff coming in from all directions.

But good, because it was mostly about things I've for years been trying us to change focus to solving causes, instead fixated on quick workarounds to the consequences users reports.

- Maybe the mindset of my colleagues finally is changing, to get that fixing the source makes the consequences stop?

Could it?

Ikväll hade vi #HRL-kurs för styrelse och tränare på tennis-klubben. Det var länge sedan, tiotals år säkerligen, senast för mig - så verkligen intressant och lärorikt.

Nu funderar jag på anmäla mig till https://www.smslivraddare.se/mer-om-att-bli-livraddare/ #smslivräddare - som jag kände till sedan före, men varit osäker på om ifall jag skulle klara faktiskt bidra pga min NPF.

Behöver sova på saken och läsa igenom ordentligt vad som förväntas, för handlar ju om att rädda en medmänniskas liv i nöd när det blir skarp läge.

@iakonkret

För vissa kanske, men du skrev att det fanns anledning för varje gång och #livet

Plus jag tycker det är intressant förstå mer om vad människor och djur kan ändra sig om något, eller inte.

@lcruggeri

Had to postpone digging into it. But turning on the global "Wayland windowing system" was an immediate win as it fixed Obsidian scaling.

So thanks for that quick bonus. Will have to sett aside some time as #Flatseal revealed so many interesting options to get my head around.

Precis varit och handlat efter jobbet, plockat in och lagt ölen på kylning.

Nu kraschat i favorithörnet av soffan och känner mig fullständigt slut i både kropp och knopp.

Vete tusan om jag kommer orka flytta mig ens för rädda ölen i frysen från bli 🧊

#fredag

I've been following #YouSuckAtProgramming for a while: https://youtu.be/aoHMiCzqCNw - and I really enjoy the content.

Dave is mainly focusing on :bash: #bash, often digging deep about the topic or command. This one about #shebang is one of those.

Now I know much better 🤪

The one good thing with #Trump:

- He makes it so easy to identify and write #DONTs for how not do as a leader!

For practically all it is also quite easy to then find one of more #DOs to use instead.

Using him this way has immensely helped me better understand, learn and develop a lot about #leadership.

It is - in a trumpian weird way - sort of a gift that keeps giving.

Skallen är mental köttfärs efter en tokintensivt positiv arbetsvecka.

Efter de tre orden poppade #Poltergeist upp i skallen.

Vendors who provide #firmware updates through #LVFS is likely to sell more products.

So it will be interesting to learn which ones will pitch in to fund this amazing service.

https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/08/lvfs-sustainability-plan-vendor-funding

What about if it is visible in the GUI, or #fwupdmgt output in the terminal if a vendor sponsors the service?

https://fwupd.org/lvfs/vendors/ could be made easier for users to find in, including if a device is updateable from there before deciding to buy it.

This is a positive opportunity for everyone!

@homeassistant

:vim: motion has been an interesting experience making an effort learning.

I particular resting four fingers on each hand on ASDF and HJKL, then trying to learn how to type with all eight with as smart movement as possible.

At 57yo retraining how to type on a keyboard, especially this different, is a major unlocking task of my muscle memory.

But now I can say it has totally been worth it, as I'm starting to get a hang of it. Now I am sure the speed will soon 🚀
