Debian to add hard Rust dependency to APT
It seems like a number of Debian ports are going to face difficult times over the coming months. Debian developer Julian Andres Klode has sent a message to the Debian mailing lists that APT will very soon start requiring Rust. I plan to introduce hard Rust dependencies and Rust code into APT, no earlier than May 2026. This extends at first to the Rust compiler and standard library, and the Sequoia ecosystem. In particular, our code to parse .deb, . … ⌘ Read more

Microsoft breaks Task Manager in Windows 11, hard
Let’s take a look at how things are going at Microsoft, whose CEO claimed a few months ago that 30% of their code was generated by “AI”. After installing Windows Updates released on or after October 28, 2025 (KB5067036), you might encounter an issue where closing Task Manager using the Close (X) button does not fully terminate the process. When you reopen Task Manager, the previous instance continues running in the background even th … ⌘ Read more
Configuring cwm on OpenBSD
For those unfamiliar, cwm is the Calm Window Manager. It’s part of the OpenBSD base distribution as one of the native window managers, along with an old version of fvwm and the venerable twm. It’s pretty simple but surprisingly powerful, a floating window manager with some basic manual tiling. It’s keyboard-centric, has an application launcher and highly configurable menus. It uses groups rather than workspaces which provides a lot of flexibility. My configuration isn’t particu … ⌘ Read more

Duchovná úvaha vo sviatok Pamiatky na zosnulých
Na sviatok Všetkých svätých, dňa 1. novembra, slávil saský kurfirst Fridrich Múdry (Kurfürst Friedrich der Weise) veľký sviatok vo svojom sídelnom meste, vo Wittenbergu. Stredobodom tohto sviatku boli staré kosti – ľudské kosti! Tieto kosti boli vystavené vo vzácnych nádobách. Údajne to boli pozostatky významných kresťanov, ktorí už dávno zomreli. Tieto kosti sa nazývali „relikvie”. Fridrich Múdry mal ich veľkú zbierku. K … ⌘ Read more

V7 pwd, converted to modern POSIX systems
This is a conversion of the original V7 pwd program for use on POSIX systems (tested primarily on Linux). This is mostly of historical interest — modern systems have a library routine or system call for getting the current directory, and don’t need this. I’ve attempted to make the minimum set of logic/functionality changes needed to make the program work, preserving the core of the original logic. I’ve made slightly more aesthetic changes, to make r … ⌘ Read more
