Now thatthe new @silex docs are live, I see many mistakes 🙆🤦🤷
Why it's always after I release something that my tests are sharper... Anyway, fixing things in the #accessibility pages

All in all it's quite neat I think. A mix between general #webdesign knowledge and Silex specifics, with screenshots and some videos. It shows that Silex is a decent tool to learn web dev skills

Democratic Resilience: a report back
I went to the #Oxford event tonight with a slightly awkward position in mind. Before going, I wrote that the #mainstreaming people would probably be idealistic about cynical politics, while I was going to be cynical about idealistic politics. My aim wasn't to pick a fight. I wanted to stay positive, avoid the usual political trench warfare, and try to build a bridge between idealism and the messy reality of power. The event was “Democratic Resilience: What Do We Need to Know?”, a panel […]https://hamishcampbell.com/democratic-resilience-a-report-back/

هل انتهى عصر المطورين؟
حتى الآن لا توجد أدلة على اختفاء مهنة هندسة البرمجيات. بالعكس، تقارير سوق العمل تشير إلى استمرار الطلب على المطورين والمهندسين، مع تغير طبيعة العمل والمهارات المطلوبة أكثر من اختفاء الوظائف نفسها. (Business Insider)
الذي يحدث فعليًا هو:
هل الذكاء الاصطناعي يدمر المجال أم يغنيه؟
الإجابة الواقعية: يفعل الأمرين معًا حسب طريقة الاستخدام.
السلبيات
الإيجابيات
ماذا يعني ذلك لمجتمع غنو/لينكس والبرمجيات الحرة؟
هنا أرى أن التأثير الإيجابي قد يكون كبيرًا جدًا.
1. زيادة المساهمين في المشاريع الحرة
شخص واحد يمكنه اليوم إصلاح أخطاء أو كتابة إضافات أو توثيق مشروع مفتوح المصدر بسرعة أكبر مما كان ممكنًا قبل سنوات.
2. دعم اللغات الأقل انتشارًا
الذكاء الاصطناعي يساعد في:
وهذا مفيد جدًا لمشاريع عربية مثل GT-SALAT أو GT-MARKDAWIN وغيرها.
3. تسهيل تطوير التوزيعات والأدوات
يمكن استخدام الوكلاء البرمجيين في:
4. كسر احتكار الشركات الكبرى
المثير للاهتمام أن جزءًا كبيرًا من عالم الذكاء الاصطناعي نفسه أصبح مفتوح المصدر. هناك نماذج وأدوات ومكتبات مفتوحة تزداد قوة باستمرار، كما أن منظمات مثل Linux Foundation ترى أن الذكاء الاصطناعي المفتوح المصدر يساهم في الابتكار وتقليل التكاليف وتسريع التطوير. (linuxfoundation.org)
5. تمكين المطور المستقل
في الماضي كان بناء مشروع كبير يحتاج:
اليوم يستطيع مطور واحد استخدام أدوات الذكاء الاصطناعي لإنجاز جزء كبير من هذه الأعمال بنفسه.
هل يجب على مطوري لينكس والبرمجيات الحرة الخوف؟
أرى أن الخطر الأكبر ليس من الذكاء الاصطناعي نفسه، بل من عدم تعلم استخدامه.
تمامًا كما لم يقضِ المترجم GCC على المبرمجين، ولم يقضِ Git على المطورين، ولم تقضِ لغات البرمجة عالية المستوى على مهندسي البرمجيات، فالذكاء الاصطناعي يبدو حتى الآن أقرب إلى كونه أداة قوية جديدة لا بد من تعلمها، وليس بديلًا كاملاً عن الإنسان.
الشخص الذي يجمع بين:
سيكون غالبًا أقوى وأكثر إنتاجية من أي وقت مضى، بينما من يرفض هذه الأدوات تمامًا قد يجد نفسه أبطأ من بقية السوق. (linuxfoundation.org)

¡Gente del Fediverse! 👋🐧 Hoy les quiero hablar de una herramienta que estoy usando *actualmente en mi computadora* todos los días y me tiene re contento: se llama Tuba.
Es un cliente de escritorio para el Fediverse diseñado específicamente para entornos GNOME. ¡Y la posta es que vuela! 🧵👇
💻 ¿Por qué Tuba es tan copado?
Está escrito en Vala y usa GTK4 + Libadwaita, lo que lo hace sentir 100% nativo en Linux (nada de Electron pesado).
✅ Interfaz limpia y moderna (inspirada en Mastodon y Elk).
✅ Soporte multi-cuenta y multi-instancia al toque.
✅ Compatible con Mastodon, Pleroma, Akkoma, GoToSocial, Glitch-soc e Iceshrimp.
✅ Redacción cómoda con vista previa de medios.
🔓 Licencia y Comunidad:
Es software 100% libre bajo licencia GPL-3.0. Es un fork del clásico proyecto "Tootle", pero modernizado y mantenido activamente por GeopJr y una comunidad genial.
Su filosofía es simple: darte una experiencia de escritorio fluida, respetuosa con tu privacidad y que se integre perfecto con tu tema del sistema. 🐧✨
🚀 ¿Cómo lo instalás? (Súper fácil)
La forma recomendada y más limpia en cualquier distro Linux (incluido mi querido Linux Mint) es vía Flatpak:
1️⃣ Abrí la terminal y ejecutá:
flatpak install flathub dev.geopjr.Tuba
2️⃣ También existen builds para Windows y Android, ¡o podés compilarlo desde el fuente con Meson y Vala si sos bien sysadmin! 🛠️
💡 La posta: Desde que lo tengo en mi escritorio, navegar el Fediverse se siente mucho más rápido, integrado y agradable que tener mil pestañas del navegador abiertas.
🔗 https://github.com/GeopJr/Tuba
Y ahora les pregunto a ustedes:
¿Qué cliente de escritorio usan en Linux? ¿Conocían Tuba o siguen fieles a la web, a Whalebird o a otros?
¡Los leo en los replies! 👇🍷

¡Gente del Fediverse! 👋🐧 Hoy les traigo un proyecto que piensa distinto: Soapbox.
Ojo con esto: Soapbox es el FRONTEND (lo que ves), y Mastodon el BACKEND (los datos). Podés mezclarlos como quieras. Es software libre, personalizable y con una filosofía muy clara 🧵
🎨 Lo más copado de Soapbox: la IDENTIDAD.
En Mastodon, todos los servers se llaman "Mastodon" y usan su logo. En Soapbox, el usuario ve el NOMBRE y el LOGO de TU sitio. Vos ponés la marca, no el proyecto.
Nació para que cada comunidad tenga su propia cara, no una plantilla genérica. ✨
⚙️ ¿Y el backend? Recomendado: Rebased (hecho a medida para Soapbox), con funciones que el Mastodon puro no trae de fábrica:
✅ Citar posts (quote posting)
✅ Chats integrados
Podés correr Rebased+Soapbox o Mastodon+Soapbox. Si tenés Pleroma, te sugieren migrar a Rebased para sacarle jugo. 🚀
🌐 ¿Querés verlo en acción YA? Entrá a fe.soapbox.pub, poné el dominio de tu server y usás Soapbox sobre cualquier Mastodon/Pleroma.
Servers que lo corren: gleasonator.com, spinster.xyz, poa.st y más. De todo el espectro, porque la idea es que CADA uno arme su propia casa. 🏠
🛠️ Modo geek (instalación): el tl;dr es git clone → yarn → yarn dev. Hay guías detalladas en su doc.
Está pensado para servers grandes: UI de personalización robusta y herramientas de moderación integradas. UX que compite con las Big Tech, pero con tus reglas. 💪
🔓 Licencia GNU AGPL v3. 100% libre.
Y un dato que valoro: ellos MISMO admiten una desventaja — al no poner la marca "Soapbox" en la cara, el software no se difunde tanto. Hay servers gigantes corriéndolo y nadie lo sabe. Honestidad brutal. 🤝

Niet alleen Nederlandse bedrijven hebben hun e-mail massaal via Amerika partijen.
Het blijkt namelijk dat het leeuwendeel van de EU-instellingen ook nog steeds Amerikaanse maildiensten gebruikt.
Met lokale e-mail en open standaarden behoud je wel zelf de regie. En soeverein mailen op eigen bodem is lang niet zo ingewikkeld als het lijkt.

I am a KDE person. I have been for decades. Give me Plasma, Qt and a sensible desktop any day.
But… Synaptic is still magnificent after all these years.
A proper GUI for APT that lets you actually see dependencies, conflicts, versions, proposed changes and the consequences of your choices. Just Debian’s package machinery, exposed in all its glorious complexity.
It resolves dependency conflicts better than many newer tools, and lets you argue with the package universe until you reach an arrangement everyone can live with.
Some software ages. Synaptic simply acquires patina. 🐙💜

So I got to find the Cisco Transco meme funny enough to actually make an icon replacement for #cisco AnyConnect, originally because I need to use it to connect to University of #saarland online library from Rennes. It's basically the double, mirrored and intertwined C replaced with TC and the original blue color (changed a little bit) replaced with the ones of the transgender flag.
I can share the #SVG version if anyone is interested. Made with #inkscape
