There was a time when scraping bots were well behaved... Now apparently we have to add software to actively defend against AI scrapers.

Really cool procedural environment generation.

I think this is a very welcome protest at FOSDEM. This keynote would be a shame on the conference. Unfortunately I already planned to not attend FOSDEM this year, but if you are: please participate to this sit-in.

Looks like a really nice tool to work with systemd services. It also integrates with my trusty lnav for the journal handling. I'll definitely give it a try going forward.

This article is feature packed, lots of great ideas to exploit git trailers. This can help automate some workflows easily.

You like RSS feeds? Ask for them!

A nice extension for Postgres allowing to ease the protection of personal information.

Nice trick for cleaner interruptible python scripts indeed.

Interesting article. There's clearly space for both languages indeed. They'll end up having each their own ecological niches, probably with some overlap.

A bit long and a bit too much framed in a "vs Python" fashion for my taste. That said it contains good advice on how to prototype or start simple with Rust. It's aligned with some of the advice I give as well. People tend to turn to low level details too quickly forcing themselves into a corner. There are better ways to handle it.

Color perception keeps being a fascinating and difficult topic.

Stuck in a state you don't like with Git? Here is a list of funny recipes.

Or why it can be dangerous to label medium the high likelihood low impact risks and the low likelihood high impact ones. One category is to be completely avoided while the other brings learning opportunities.

Or why you can't consider risks in isolation. It's too often forgotten.

This is definitely an excellent use of robotics. Probably one of the best I've seen. The things we can do when we're not just focusing on increasing productivity. These people get a shared sense of belonging they'd have a hard time to have without those robots.

Interesting extra dimension to think about risks. I don't think I ever encountered it in the wild but that can make sense to use it.

Nice comparison of both approaches. Some of the criteria used I would have left out but otherwise it seems fair.

Very good demonstration of why you want open source code on your projects. I often end up doing this kind of forensics myself, this is truly powerful.

This is definitely a neat trick. This way you can flush stdout regularly without modifying the code of a command.

The WordPress is still unfolding... I wouldn't be surprised if it ends with a fork.
