Developers are often joking about bugs caused by solar flares, this time it’s no joke.

I imagine the latency makes it difficult to use in many cases, but I have a need to fetch a file from cold storage, it may be perfect, as long as the user accepts the wait.

I just needed a Bissell in my life.

A WIP for a kaitai.io describing a ZIM file https://www.openzim.org/wiki/ZIM_file_format A WIP for a kaitai.io describing a ZIM file https://www.openzim.org/wiki/ZIM_file_format - zim.yaml

kaitai object tree

Using kaitai.io to create a parser for ZIM files, almost there.
I did write one manually in Go, several years ago.
There is a twist though, the Kaitai one was 100% AI generated with Qwen Max and Gemini 😲

Top: bear and rabbit look at halloween decorations, a ghost and a pumpkin. Bear: “What do you think?” Rabbit: “It’s too early to decorate for Halloween. It’s still summer.” Bottom: the ghost has sunglasses on and a towel around its neck, it’s holding ice cream & a hot dog. The pumpkin has sunglasses and a hat on. Bear: “Is this better”

Last night I've tested Qwen3 Next on a complex coding task, involving a C++ SDK and CGO, Gemini 2.5 pro completely hallucinated an answer and faked the code, where Qwen outputs did compile and did work first shot.
Next can run on consumer hardware 😲

A polar plot for a satellite pass

My defunct iOS satellite pass prediction SatSat is back as WebSat and available at websat.inair.space #radioamateur

It provides transponder frequencies with Doppler effects.

Go is in a different league, if you don't mind the goroutine costs, (99.9% you won't) then it's a dead simple mental model.

I wish Python could have solved async the same way as Go, since we are okay with the performance penalties when using Python already.

Zig's New Async I/O Asynchrony is not concurrency.

Zig new async I/O is fascinating if successful because it may solve that issue, the sync/async choice is just function parameter, just like an allocator would be.

Python has had async for 10 years -- why isn't it more popular? A deep-dive into the challenges and misconceptions surrounding async programming in Python

As an ex Pythonista, one reason against async adoption is really that you have to taint all functions with async then maintain two APIs.

The same problem exists in the Rust ecosystem.

After several months of Helix I realize I can't use vim anymore, it does not make any sense, sorry for the vim ppl offended :)

Community Salaries Reviews Jobs For Business v Tech Industry • 1h Amazon • EL TRUMP Something very strange is going on There is a seemingly coordinated effort to FLIP FLOP on Al. All of the execs who were hyping Al to death just a few weeks ago are now claiming that Al is a bubble, that AGI is nowhere near, and that Al will have a much smaller impact than anticipated. > Altman called it a bubble > Eric Schmidt said that AGI is basically bullshit > Matt Garman (AWS CEO) downplayed its impact WHY the sudden narrative switch? WHO gave the orders? I swear, it's like they're all part of some cult. They all embrace the same talking points all at once, and abandon them all at once.

Oh yeah things are falling apart. You've got paranoid guys on Blind freaking out now
