This article does not discuss one major reason why chocolate in the West got worse - Ghana and Ivory Coast, the two African countries that are the biggest suppliers of cacao globally, got organised and started demanding fair prices for it. www.reuters.com/world/africa...

Year of Linux on the Beach confirmed

After five years of development, Stalwart reaches version 1.0 with performance optimizations, database stability, and email collaboration capabilities. linuxiac.com/stalwart-1-0... #OpenSource

So @igalia.com and friends are slowly but surely turning Servo into a web-compatible browser. This would be a singular feat of engineering whose side effects throughout the process at Mozilla and Igalia have made computing better for everybody. servo.org/blog/2026/10... wpt.fyi/results/?lab...

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

someone at Polymarket is drafting a tweet about how their users accurately predicted the Brazilian election result within one point

as someone who uses llms, i'm totally fine, even happy, about lobste.rs being an anti-llm space. if you want pro-llm stuff you can look anywhere else on the internet. if we want a moderate sort-of-llm community we can create one. niche communities with hardcore value systems are good.

recommend seeing La bola negra in cinema if u can! sumptuous, expansive, vital, poetic, gripping, tender film. Queers, Spanish civil war, communing with Lorca and other lives lost to fascism. Ty to my gf for taking me on a date 💕

This is genuinely some of the most worrying news I have seen in the past few years, in terms of the ongoing effort to hold the AI industry accountable on climate Me losing work because the org I'm pitching to is funded by Anthropic is far more of a threat than actual competition from generative AI

Omg this is gorgeous

One week later, Pele is already in dozens of apps including Obsidian 1.15! Many improvements this week: - Even faster rendering! - Math resolver support: KaTeX, MathJax, Temml, etc - Gradients in sankey diagrams - Fewer edge crossings in diagrams with subgraphs - Sub, sup and inline code in labels

Today I'm finally opening @placita.app to everyone! 🙌🏼 It's a map for the places you want to go and the places you've been. Your places are saved on your own PDS, so they stay yours. Early alpha, so things will break. Tell me when they do 😅 placita.app

Cool site

It's not psychosis, just business. I wish Arc had thrived, but you don't sell to Atlassian for more than half a billion dollars, on a product with no income whatsoever and with massive competition, without an AI angle. www.cnbc.com/2025/09/04/a... (This was 3 months after the Dia beta launch)

You know what the Atmosphere tab really needs, though, is a wealth of Atmospheric records. A surfeit even. @grain.social photos, @pckt.blog posts, @leaflet.pub letters, @offprint.app printoffs, @atmo.rsvp events — lexicons we haven't even dared to dream of yet.

Code is read more often than it is written. The more code there is involved in a system, the more reading must be done. Therefore the most important change control to implement in any system which will see long-term maintenance is to rate-limit the addition of new code to keep reading easy.

⚡️️️️️️️Amid Starlink crisis, Finnish tech giants announce plan to help Ukraine build its own sovereign satellite system. "Ukraine needs secure, sovereign, and high-performance satellite communications systems that it controls," ICEYE CEO Rafal Modrzewski said.

What most people don't know: when you fill up a petrol car most of the energy never moves it. Petrol car: 13–21% of the crude oil's energy reaches wheels. Electric car on today's UK grid: 43–45%. Electric car on wind+solar: 77–80%. That's why we don't need to replace fossil energy one for one.

So, let me get this straight: @moderation.bsky.app can apply a !takedown to an account hosted in the @eurosky.social PDS and it gets suspended everywhere, even if you switch network providers in @mu.social ? This is not the "free speech != free reach" architecture we were promised.

Gil Duran @gilduran.com - author of The Nerd Reich - tells us he's just back from Peter Thiel's four-night speech on the antichrist, delivered in a red-walled room to an audience wearing Hitler haircuts. Those of us who are worried about AI safety are the antichrist, by the way...

Yet again, the industry has been let down by DigitalOcean and their abandonment of CSS-Tricks. It's time to step up and protect publishers whose goal is simply, to educate and share knowledge. bell.bz/youll-miss-p...

I love the FT, but any article about this potential merger that doesn't mention the only obvious, screaming motivation for the whole thing happening is engaged in journalistic malpractice this is all about speedrunning a nearly trillion dollar pay package 🎁🔗: www.wsj.com/business/see...

AT Protocol devroom is coming to FOSDEM 2027 🎉 @edouard.paris and I will open the CfP by October 27, mark your calendars ✍️

Damn, David Gerard blocked me over this :( it's hard to be an AI hater, there's always somebody more hater than you...

Shrinking containers often blinds security scanners. Learn how bottom-up OCI image builds eliminate the distroless visibility gap.

The PHP security team is giving advance notice: Upcoming security release Wed, Oct 21st 2026, 14:00UTC, two critical vulnerabilities, both rated CVSSv4 9.2. PHP users are encouraged to prepare to update. Earlier release if details become public or active exploit evidence.

finally got to reading maevyn's post. add this one to your queue. two paragraphs that hit me particularly hard

in Firefox nightly, suspended tabs now turn grayscale. the user experience is... funereal. makes the browser feel like a graveyard, tombstones littering the place after a while. they should just implement @devdevcharlie.com's extension instead:

Offprint is offline for some precautionary maintenance. We expect to be back around 8:00 AM PT.

I see nobody had opened a feature request to render @jupyter.org notebooks on @tangled.org , so I went ahead and did it tangled.org/tangled.org/...

truly a wild time to be alive when the cryptography world is split between those worried about quantum computers and those whose private key is “4”

New trend I spotted over the last month or so, no one really bothers any more to open issues for open source projects, it's straight to an (often) big PR 90% of the time 🤔

previously, it took just five years to lose $80 billion, but thanks to moore's law, a modern company can lose $80 billion in just under six months, a 10x improvement on the state of the art

Consumer electronics is going great

What a time to be alive.
