Je suis tombé sur une petite pépite de script qui prend les règles de firewall des pfSense et qui les documente au format PDF (ou même png) 😍
C'est tellement un gain de temps pour documenter correctement. En voici un petit exemple.

La France n'est qu'au 11è rang en nombre de voyages en train par habitant. C'est le résultat d'une offre insuffisante, un réseau ferroviaire sous-utilisé. A l'inverse, la Suisse avec son réseau dense, ses trains fréquents, bat tous les records de fréquentation.

A usable product starts with the conceptual model, but designers have "optimized" that work out of the profession. It's time to bring it back.

Genuinely don't understand why progressive web apps aren't more popular. I get why you'd want to be in the app stores, but it seems there are increasingly diminishing returns as the web gains more "mobile native" features.
When the Trump administration demanded ICEBlock’s removal, Apple complied—no rival app stores, just one gatekeeper’s decision, explains Meher Sethi. The takedown exposed how easily government pressure can travel through Apple and Google’s app-store duopoly and the risk it poses to democracy.
No Kings, No Monopolies: How App Store Gatekeepers Enable Authoritarianism | TechPolicy.Press
Meher Sethi discusses how the app-store duopoly enables government pressure, including censorship of apps like ICEBlock, and poses growing risks to democracy.
