Albert Einstein’s first wife Mileva (Mitza) Marić was also a brilliant physicist. They met at the Polytechnic Institute of Zurich, where she had fought for special permissions to attend and where she received higher marks than Albert. Mitza put in as much if not more work on their theories but wasn’t credited because Albert told her their works wouldn’t get published with a woman’s name on them. Many of his lecture notes are in Mitza’s handwriting, and Albert was once heard at a party saying, “I need my wife, she helps solve all of my mathematical problems.” 80% of Einstein’s famous works were published during this marriage, referred to as his “magic years.” Those magic years ended abruptly after they divorced due to his infidelity and abandonment.
Happy #womenshistorymonth

Ich habe wieder gebloggt:
Warum es notwendig ist, den Alt-Text eines Bildes immer passend zum Artikel-Kontext zu erstellen und warum zentral gespeicherte Alt-Texte diese Anforderung nicht erfüllen.
Und auch wenn ich mein Lieblings-CMS #TYPO3 mit keinen Wort erwähne, ist der Artikel doch stark von meinen Erfahrungen damit geprägt.

I haven't talked much about my day job, but now feels like the right time since I recently moved away from management back into a content + community-driven role at @thunderbird.
As successful as the Thunderbird project is, there's a lot of room for us to improve our community engagement, whether that's creating a more welcoming environment for new contributors OR just being a fun "third place" for our users.
What do YOU think is missing right now? What can we do better? 👂

This does not only save time but also a lot of computing power. How much CO2 reduction would this be in the long term?

Here’s a clear example of how aggressive the image processing has become on newer iPhones. This is a comparison between the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the iPhone 11 Pro Max, taking photos of distant text at equal magnification. Note how the 15 Pro Max’s image pipeline has made up all the details.
EDIT: I’m going to drop mentions of “AI” and “hallucinating” here because I think it’s conjuring up the wrong mental models in readers’ heads. What’s likely happening is over-eager noise reduction and sharpening (which may or may not have pattern matching) creating details where none exist. Every phone does some amount of NR and sharpening, but later iPhones are super aggressive in this regard, so much so that the results often depart from what we accept as “reality”.

I didn't do any recap of events I've visited any more. I just enjoyed them.
But this year's Web Camp Venlo ( #WCV ) pushed me to write a blog post: https://daniel-siepmann.de/recap-web-camp-venlo-2024.html
It was such an awesome event. I learned so much about #software development. And I think it is all about humans.

the only problem I have with that take is at the end, where you essentially described some kind of whitelist federation. This invariably leads to smaller devs running their own infra being hit the most, as they could have to pass through opaque, arbitrary procedures before being able to federate at all. Or well, they can federate, but no one will hear them, except other small people, in the same situation. Therefore, I recommend a different way of doing this, what I begun calling capability based federation. It works as follows:
- the first level is restricted: the remote instance can see users of the local instance and follow them. On the remote side, users will see activities from the users they followed, but not the other way round. However, the local user can go in the profile of that person and boost their posts, increasing a score which allows the profile to go to the second stage
- visible: posts are visible in the federated timeline, but they can't be boosted by local users who aren't following that person, not yet. For that, afew more follows and perhaps boosts like stage 1 are required for stage 3:
- unrestricted: all restrictions are lifted, and federation can go as advertised
all those capabilities are given by the system, perhaps automatically and with a transparent and simple ruleset, and as quickly, all of them can be removed by administrators. Furthermore, those stages are sets of smaller capabilities, which when granted, they also come with logging facilities which log exactly what user in the chain promoted spam, in which case, capabilities could either be removed one by one, or in bulks.
what do you think?
@esoteric_programmer The implementation is not for us to decide in the end. However, the problem with Free Software development, is that the first-time-interactions (e.g. reporting an issue, sending a patch) are often the most important. You often don't follow a project and share its activity, you often look out for their online presence when you have the first problem.
The proposl in the blog means that you can interact with Codeberg if you have interacted successfully with others in the past.

I believe that #FreeSoftware #development needs free software #tools.
I’m tired of all the excuses for injecting #proprietary software like #GitHub, #Discord, #Transifex, #Slack, etc. into the development workflow. What's the point of making free software then?
We *do* have good free software tools available, we just need to use them.
Projects like #Forgejo show us exactly how it's done. Free software all the way, no compromises, no excuses. 👍
This is exactly the right direction.

Dear developers: Please stop using random valid domains in your examples or documentation, there are dedicated domain names and IP ranges for that.
For domain names for example use: example.com
Reference: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6761#section-6.5
For IP address ranges for example use: 203.0.113.0/24
or
2001:DB8::/32
Reference: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5737#section-3 [IPv4] or https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3849#section-4
