Yes! I’m making progress in Spanish, and I learnt a tiny bit of Japanese last year too. I’m using Duolingo, which has its flaws but it has got better and better, and I’m a firm believer that a tiny bit of practice every day really makes a difference

Reverse chronological feed FTW!

Dutch courts fighting to make Facebook and Instagram useable again.

Ramsha Jahangir @ramshajahangir.bsky.social · 4d

Last week, a Dutch court ordered Meta to give Facebook & Instagram users the right to set a chronological feed by default - one of the first EU cases applying the DSA in civil proceedings.

To unpack what this means, I spoke with @bitsoffreedom.bsky.social:

There are reasons to use a VPN but “people are going to hack into your bank account if you use public WiFi” is only one of them if your bank doesn’t use TLS & certs - in which case, change your bank!

The @nordvpn.bsky.social ads on @therestpolitics.bsky.social are sometimes misleading on this

Marcus Hutchins @malwaretech.com · 6d

Having a rather amusing conversation after I pushed back on the advice that using public wifi without a VPN will get you hacked. I bet someone $10k that I could log into my bank account via their wifi network and they couldn't even tell me my username. This guy is telling me he'd "use Pegasus" 1/3

Doesn’t posting there make people who are still there think that it’s more balanced than it really is?

You could post here, and post links to those posts on X, for a while to make it clear that’s not your primary platform?

Agreed - through @openuk.bsky.social I’ve met a few MPs and they have all been smart. Obvs they can’t all be super-well informed on all topics but they have generally been open to hearing from specialists. Figuring out which experts to trust must be one of the most difficult bits of the job

Liz Rice 💛💙🐝 @lizrice.com · 12d

I am 💯 in agreement

It would not be too much to ask for @microsoft.com Outlook Outlook to let you know that the other person/people declined, rather than just reminding you about it as if it were going ahead. Google calendar handles this way better

This upcoming eCHO episode is one not to miss if you are working on (or interested in) using eBPF for anything non-trivial. Cilium’s approach to configuration is undergoing a complete overhaul so that it happens at runtime rather than compile time!

I'm definitely looking forward to @lizrice.com's @kcduk.bsky.social keynote on "Building a successful Cloud Native Business on Open Source".

There's a tension here and it seems to have ramped up recently with the end of ZIRP. I'm keen to hear Liz's take! Join me on 21st Oct. tix: kcduk.io

Nutanix adopted Cilium as the default CNI in its Nutanix #Kubernetes Platform. Cilium was chosen for its simplicity, robust documentation, and advanced capabilities like DSR, Hubble observability, and identity-based security—all powered by #eBPF.

Nutanix

Nutanix needed a more modern, efficient, and easier-to-manage CNI for its managed Kubernetes platform (NKP), especially as existing solutions posed complexity in configuration and lacked performance…
