I would love to hear abour this too! Don’t really like the fact that all my precious memories are stored in icloud

Can anyone recommend a way to continuously send photos taken on my iphone to a Linux server? I've used a few things but haven't been totally happy with anything yet. Currently using Immich but I'd love something lighter for just sync files.

it’s funny to make fun of people who vibecode too close to the sun and have products that burn customers’ money or have deleted databases or whatever, but i just find it sad to look at the opposite of people who don’t make anything ever and yet use their free time to just whine about slopcode

It's often uneasy for me to share my experiences as a woman in tech, but this job market has me worried for everyone stuck somewhere harmful. I admire everyone who takes on "women in tech" speaking gigs but I am also angry for them and us. ohhelloana.blog/woman-in-tec...

ohhelloana.blogIt's 2026 and women are still asked to teach others to think a little bit and not be a prickA while back I went to a tech meet-up and one of the talks was about being a woman in tech and I am finally ready to put into words why I sat through it so uncomfortably.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Is there no way in Zig to do a for-loop over a range in reverse? I just wanna do `for (0..N) |i| { ... }` but in decreasing order, i.e. (N-1, ..., 1, 0).

Doing AoC with Zig this year. It's going pretty good so far. Zig has been on my radar for a while, finally got an excuse to properly dig into it.

🚩 So many red flags in a form with basically one field: - Using placeholder as label - Insufficient contrast on the continue button - A negated checkbox that opts you into marketing stuff per default Bad a11y and shady practices - both illegal in the EU (GDPR and EAA)

I have an atproto question. Say I migrate my data from some social app X to app Y, which use the same lexicon etc. What happens to the labeler and the moderation layer? Are all previous labels removed and new ones are somehow placed? What if some comment I made was ok in app X but not in Y?
