  2. Let's Encrypt transitions revocation program from OCSP to CRL.

    Why? Browsers have also switched browser-side checks (back) to CRL, after 10 years trying OCSP. It's all about privacy and performance.

    Until recently, your browser had to request data from the CA (eg DigiCert, Sectigo), which means they can know your sites and browsing/device habits. CRL solves this.

    Nice to see official data checks out!

    Apple on 12 Feb 2026: [1]
    > 66% of all iPhones are running iOS 26.

    Wikimedia week of 2026-02-08: [2]
    > 69% of Mobile Safari reports version 26.

    iPad presents a desktop UA (macOS/Safari), so brower stats combine. Apple doesn't report on macOS anymore?

    Wikimedia:
    > 2026-02-08: 40% Safari 26
    > 2025-02-09: 51% Safari 18
    > 2024-02-04: 55% Safari 17

    For reliable browser adoption data, check Wikimedia's analytics. We correctly use browser version for Safari (macOS) and Mobile Safari (iOS).

    I might write something up later but here's the data year-over-year.

  6. (Inspired by the BBC Tech report from @tdp_org)

    Yesterday, Wikipedia received over 45 million requests made with curl, from 113 distinct curl releases.

    Of these, 32 million use the default UA (e.g. curl CLI). The other 13 million embed libcurl with a longer UA string containing curl (e.g. GuzzleHttp/PHP, PycURL, UnityPlayer)

    At 12 million, most are curl/7.88.1.

    Raw data, queries, and scrub/cleaning parameters:

  7. I mean this reaks of desparation. It's not too surprising given their marketshare (at least among Wikipedia readers) is a below Firefox, which is already pretty low.

    Wikimedia pageviews, July 2024, Desktop:
    - Firefox: 14%
    - Edge: 12%

  9. 📝 Blog post: Browser adoption rates.

    Ever wondered how quickly browser releases are actually adopted in practice? What percentage of clients is on the latest version? I analyzed Wikipedia's to find out!

  10. Recall 10-second Tom? Background character in "50 First Dates", the 2004 rom-com starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.

    He's a punchline to comfort the main character who "merely" has a one-day memory.

    But, do you know the real story of Clive Wearing? British music producer who has severe retrograde amnesia for over 20 years. He has a 7-second memory...

    Watch the first three minutes to get the gist.

  11. BBC sites share a common layout with identical styling and fonts... except for the lowercase "a".

    Someone made a font variant just for Bitesize, changing its A to be more kid-friendly!

    bbc.co.uk/news
    bbc.co.uk/bitesize

    Toggle between. They're identical, except for the double-storey |a| on News, and Bitesize sporting a single-storey |ɑ|.

    It's implemented with CSS font-feature-settings:

  12. Vote for the OpenVox logo!

    github.com/OpenVoxProject/plan

    OpenVox is the free software successor to Puppet. The @voxpupuli community has maintained Puppet packages since 2014, and soft-forked last year after Puppet Inc stopped publishing packages and maintaining the public repos.

    """
    select a firm swede, the smaller in size the sweeter.
    """

    Yep, kids are cute. Same in Scandinavia, I guess. Did you just say "firm"?

    """
    medium size is best, depending on how you will use it.
    """

    Wait what?

    """
    avoid larger swedes as they can be bitter.
    """

    Okay, this I can relate to, see also Greg Davies on Taskmaster. (I'm a tall Dutch person myself, we're not alll bitter!)

  14. "14-Hour Search for the End of TGI Friday's Endless Appetizers" by Caity Weaver.

    A classic Gawker article from the archives...

    In this epic journey, a Gawker reporter investigates TGI Friday's bottomless mozzarella sticks — in exchange for a week's vacation. A fun read, loved every moment of it!

  15. RSS spec author Dave Winer:

    """
    I am 67 years old and every time I start a new product it could be my last. I am not trying to conquer anything.

    My product is interop. [..] I am trying to shake at least one part of the web out of the deep sleep it has been in ever since Google Reader.
    """

    Essentially, protocols-first (open, long-term interop, enable healthy competition), whereas products go second (may be closed, ephemeral, competitive).
