Love it when an old #OSS issue you opened ages ago (this one was ~9 years old) is closed and you receive the notification email.
And obviously you completely forgot it.
It's like a message in a bottle

Holy shit…You can’t make this up: a plane is circling Soldier Field before the Bears home opener with a banner that reads— “HEY ICE, MASKS ARE FOR CUCKS.” Also the trolling is incredible for those that told us to stop wearing masks during the pandemic.

Stream ended! Didn’t quite wrap up everything I had intended for https://some.pics, but made awesome progress and paved the way to finish things up tomorrow. It’s officially out of beta now, and some long overdue UI improvements have been made to the upload process and picture management screen. Tomorrow, the custom page templates feature should go live! 🥳

Love them or hate them, mid-century rectangular glass curtain buildings like this are easy to dismiss as being "boring", but I think that misses something.

Reflections of the surroundings become part of the facade, which changes at different angles and throughout the day. I visited several times and made dozens of photos, all quite different, before I settled on this one, and there are infinitely many photos others could make, all unique. (Similar to the new World Trade Center in this regard).

Captured with the Phase One Achromatic back and the Rodenstock 32mm/4.0 HR-Digaron lens, with the back shifted down 8.5mm to maintain the building's geometry. I brought out contrast in the sky with a polarizer, but otherwise used no color contrast filtration. The camera was positioned across the avenue about 10 meters up from the plaza level (at the bottom of the "canyon" of the skyline reflected in the bottom center of the building).

Dimon has a brand new hit with an essay on Finland that recycles the rhetoric Putin used before ordering the invasion of Ukraine. It means infinitely less coming from Medvedev, but it’s all worrying, even as a trial balloon or an alcohol-fueled screed, I don’t like it. https://meduza.io/en/feature/2025/09/09/we-have-every-legal-right

A good definition for "legacy code" is any code that you're afraid to change or update because no one at your company knows how it works anymore and there's no automated test coverage to tell you if your changes break it.

AI is only capable of generating instant legacy code. At scale.

Hey everyone,

Today @joynewacc and I had video chats over Signal with four people from Gaza who, along with their families, are struggling to survive Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

I’d like to welcome them all to Gaza Verified.

• @shathamohammed123
• @Dr_Nadeen98
• @Sakhergaza13
• And Mahmoud, who is not on the site yet as we need to find a safe sever and a new account for him and explain to you what happened with his earlier accounts first.

Please give them a warm welcome to the fediverse, follow them, and help their fundraisers if you can. And please share this so others can do the same.

Thank you 💕

This is me — standing in front of what’s left of a home.
My name is Sakher, and I’m from Gaza.
I’m trying to raise money to help evacuate my family and relatives who are still trapped in northern Gaza, where daily massacres continue and there’s no food, no clean water, no safety.
