@pedersen oh I believe it. #Canonical has gotten orders of magnitude better at this.

My bit is more of precautions than anything.

Funny enough, my daily driver used to be #popos until 24.04 release. 😅 and before that, was #opensuse #tumbleweed or #arch. 🫠

But for stable platform, I've always targeted #ubuntu. I like the bleeding edge to test limits, yet build for production with things that are boring. Makes those migraines disappear. 😅

Canonical releases Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS, consolidating security patches and resolving critical desktop, hardware, and installation bugs for new deployments.

Canonical has funded a PhD at the University of Bristol, backed by UK Research and Innovation, to build a system that translates large C repositories into behaviourally-correct Rust. https://www.developer-tech.com/news/canonical-bristol-phd-to-automate-c-to-rust-translation/ #canonical #rust #ubuntu #linux #developers #ai #opensource #tech

Ask me about ubuntu, circa 2008-2009. La época de las vacas gordas en la que Canonical mandaba merchandising a los LoCo Teams... ligue una de rebote que vive y lucha. Es la que voy a llevar al armado del mercado #ubuntu #canonical #merchandising #remera #tshirt

Delighted to announce a collaboration between #Canonical and the University of Bristol looking at the feasibility of precise, automated C to Rust translation by combining LLMs and formal methods.

Ubuntu continua a espandersi anche dentro Windows. Secondo Canonical, l'utilizzo della distribuzione tramite WSL sta crescendo a un ritmo superiore rispetto al desktop tradizionale. #Ubuntu #Linux #Windows11 #WSL #Canonical #OpenSource https://www.linuxeasy.org/ubuntu-su-windows-cresce-piu-velocemente-del-desktop-linux/

🐧 Ubuntu găsește în WSL o nouă cale de creștere în interiorul ecosistemului Windows!

Adoptarea Ubuntu în cadrul WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) înregistrează un boom remarcabil, transformând distribuția Canonical în opțiunea implicită și preferată pentru milioane de dezvoltatori care lucrează pe sistemul de operare de la Microsoft.

✨ De ce devine Ubuntu prin WSL o combinație imbatabilă?

💻 Puntea ideală între Windows și Linux:
• Oferă acces instantaneu la un terminal Linux complet și performant direct din Windows, fără bătăile de cap aferente mașinilor virtuale tradiționale, configurării de dual-boot sau pierderilor de performanță.

🤖 Găzduirea ideală pentru fluxurile de lucru AI & Cloud:
• Dezvoltatorii de inteligență artificială, inginerii DevOps și programatorii backend folosesc WSL pentru a rula nativ Docker, Kubernetes, Python și tool-uri Linux, profitând în același timp de accelerarea GPU directă pusă la dispoziție de plăcile video Nvidia/AMD pe Windows.

⚡ Integrare avansată WSL2:
• Cu sprijinul kernelului Linux real integrat în WSL2, suportul nativ pentru aplicații grafice GUI (WSLg) și integrarea fluidă cu Visual Studio Code, experiența de dezvoltare devine aproape nediferențiată de un sistem Linux nativ.

📈 Calea de conversie pentru Canonical:
• Această prezență masivă pe desktop-urile de Windows oferă Canonical o poartă directă prin care aduce dezvoltatorii mai aproape de ecosistemul Ubuntu Server și de serviciile sale de enterprise cloud.

O strategie câștigătoare care demonstrează cum colaborarea dintre Microsoft și lumea open-source transformă Ubuntu în standardul de facto pentru dezvoltare pe orice platformă! 🚀

Google Thought My Archive Was the Homepage

Search Console said duplicate page with a proper canonical. Six of my own URLs were pointing at /. Here is the Next.js leak, and why I flipped four reprints back to Promptway.

[Перевод] 44 CVE в uutils: что Rust ловит, а что нет на границе с системой

В апреле 2026 года Canonical раскрыла 44 CVE в uutils . Это переписанная на Rust версия GNU coreutils, которая в Ubuntu идёт по умолчанию с 25.10. Раскрытие пришло из внешнего аудита, заказанного перед релизом 26.04 LTS. Большую часть уязвимостей нашли обычным ревью кода. Ни borrow checker, ни проверки clippy , ни cargo audit не поймали ни одной. Этот аудит, пожалуй, самый чёткий из существующих примеров того, что Rust ловит, а что нет. Самый внятный разбор списка сделал Маттиас Эндлер в посте «Bugs Rust Won’t Catch» от 29 апреля. Эндлер ведёт консалтинг corrode и подкаст Rust in Production ; недавно у него в гостях был Джон Сигер, вице-президент по инженерии в Canonical. Пост построен как разбор того самого раскрытия: 44 CVE распределены по восьми категориям; к большинству приложен git diff фикса. Ниже разберу каркас Эндлера и добавлю два аргумента сверху. Первый: один из мейнтейнеров GNU coreutils в HN-треде показал бенчмарк, на котором рекомендованный Эндлером фикс не выживает. Второй: структурный аргумент про то, что 40 лет наслоённых POSIX-шрамов делают с любой переписью, независимо от языка.
