Don't let anyone tell you that the Commission's DSA enforcement against X is about speech or censorship.
That would, indeed, be interesting. But this is just the EU enforcing some normal, boring laws that would get bipartisan support in the U.S. (I bet similar bills *have* had that support.) 1/

Good alternatives for moving out from GitHub:
* gitlab.com
* codeberg.org
* tangled.org
I must admit I've just recently found about last two. I think opensource projects should really go with diversification.

Parce que oui, il est tout à fait possible de réparer une voiture électrique. Remplacer des éléments électroniques serait totalement faisable, c'est moins compliqué que de remplacer des roulements d'une boite de vitesse.

Until now, Belgians could only access government sites using Itsme or an ID card reader. MyGov.be, a new digital identity app lets citizens log in securely to government platforms such as Tax-on-Web, My Pension, and My eBox.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

Some people say it's always DNS but I say it's always a race condition. In the AWS outage it was a race condition in the DNS.

Watched a video from a fellow developer about their journey in finding a TypeScript stack that manages real-time updates, streaming, and background jobs. It required multiple subscriptions.
In #ElixirLang, we often take for granted how seamlessly these features come with the platform.

Good #rust question. I find this question is something that people used to OOP often skip over and jump directly to the OOP answer and try to shoe-horn that into rust. This usually fails fast.
Time for another stupid rust question. #aurora_rust
So, in my program I have a structs which are called Tasks, there are certain types of those Tasks that I am making such as "Oneclick", "Ontime", etc.
How do I put all of them in one vector so that I can store them in one place?
