Vacation in the RhĂśn
Yesterday, we came back from some much-needed vacation. We spent 9 nights in Fulda, went hiking a few times, visited some museums, and sometimes also just relaxed. On the way to Fulda, we also made a short break in Kassel and revived some memories. â Read more

Cascadia megathrust earthquake could trigger San Andreas fault
When the tectonic subduction zone beneath the Pacific Northwest moves, it does so in dramatic fashion. Not only is ground shaking from a magnitude 9+ earthquake incredibly destructive, the event triggers tsunamis and landslides to compound the damage. Now, a new study in the Geosphere suggests the âreally big oneâ could also trigger a major earthquake in California. â Read more

@zvava@twtxt.net Good question. This is the spec, I think:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de According to this screenshot, KDE still shows good old application icons: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/94/KDE_Plasma_5.21_Breeze_Twilight_screenshot.png
And GNOME used to have them, too: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Gnome-2-22_%284%29.png
I like the looks of your window manager. Thatâs using Wayland, right? The only thing on this screenshot to critique is all that wasted space of the windows not making use of the full screen!!!1 At least the file browser. 8-)
This drives me nuts when my workmates share their screens. I really donât get it how people can work like that. You canât even read the whole line in the IDE or log viewer with all the expanded side bars. And then thereâs 200 pixels on the left and another 300 pixels on the right where the desktop wallpaper shows. Gnaa! Thereâs the other extreme end when somebody shares their ultra wide screen and I just have a âregularishâ 16:10 monitor and donât see shit, because itâs resized way too tiny to fit my width. Good times. :-D
Sorry for going off on a tangent here. :-) Back to your WM: It has the right mix of being subtle and still similar to motif. Probably close to the older Windowses. My memory doesnât serve me well, but I think they actually got it fairly good in my opinion. Your purple active window title looks killer. It just fits so well. This brown one (https://www.uninformativ.de/blog/postings/2025-07-22/0/leafpads.png) gives me also classic vibes. Awww. We ran some similar brownish color scheme (donât recall its name) on Win95 or Win98 for some time on the family computer. I remember other people visting us not liking these colors. :-D

18 rules of Software Engineering
- You will regret complexity when on-call
- Stop falling in love with your own code
- Everything is a trade-off. Thereâs no âbestâ 3. Every line of code you write is a liability 4. Document your decisions and designs
- Everyone hates code they didnât write
- Donât use unnecessary dependencies
- Coding standards prevent arguments
- Write meaningful commit messages
- Donât ever stop learning new things
- Code reviews spread knowledge
- Always build for maintainability
- Ask for help when youâre stuck
- Fix root causes, not symptoms
- Software is never completed
- Estimates are not promises
- Ship early, iterate often
- Keep. It. Simple.
Solid list, even though 14 is up for debate in my opinion: Software can be completed. You have a use case / problem, you solve that problem, done. Your software is completed now. There might still be bugs and they should be fixed â but this doesnât âaddâ to the program. Donât use âsoftware is never doneâ as an excuse to keep adding and adding stuff to your code.

Genode OS Framework 25.05 released
Itâs been 9 years since we disrupted Genodeâs API.

These changes ultimately paved the ground for sophisticated systems like Sculpt OS. Since then, we identified several potential areas for further safety improvements, unlocked by the evolution of the C++ core langu ⌠â Read more

MacSSL: a port of Mbed-TLS for the classic Mac OS 7/8/9
Yesterday we had SDL2 for the classic Mac OS, today we have modern SSL/TLS for the classic Mac OS. This is a C89/C90 port of MbedTLS for Mac System 7/8/9. It works, and compiles under Metrowerks Codewarrior Pro 4. This is a basic app that performs a GET request on whatever is in api.h, and prints the result out to the text box (with a lot of debug information, of course).
