LiteLLM on PyPI is compromised

We're in yet another oil shock. It will produce yet another inflation crisis. Another recession is likely.

It's a great time to remember that actually...the future is electric!

We need to invest in Canadian security, stability, and energy independence.

Renewable energy is the cheapest, safest and most resilient way to power our economy.

Nobody ever invaded a country for its wind or sunlight.

Subject: Collab idea for Linus from a stay at home mom UGC creator

LOL, no, wat?

(Don't worry, it's just a spam message, but the subject is HILARIOUS.)

OMG, I finally got there. Looks like there are only 17 more units left in the Norwegian course after this.

sergey mironov, a 73-year-old russian politician, illegally adopted a Ukrainian girl from #Kherson in 2022.

Her older sister remains in #Ukraine, and her guardians are trying to reunite the sisters.

mironov altered the child’s identity, erasing her Ukrainian heritage. The forced transfer of children is a war crime, and this must not be forgotten.

"ICE agents will be deployed to US airports on Monday"

New reason #1 why I choose not to fly. Notice the word deploy - all passengers are now enemies. Plan accordingly, if you are wise. FFS - don't travel to the US.

b4 0.15.0 is out. Lots of new features in this one, including the whole new "b4 review" workflow.

https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/releases.html#v0-15

I got my inbox under 300 for the first time in weeks. A large chunk of it is the thread of doom for the bugzilla replacement that remains entirely unread.

I shall now try to catch up to it without losing my sanity.

It's a bad month to be a bearded right wing religious fundamentalist.

[$] Development tools: Sashiko, b4 review, and API specification

Lauren, we already have powerful scroll-stopping hooks for TikTok -- we just break people's video drivers.

Hi Linux Team,

I’m Lauren, a *** creator specializing in elevated, lifestyle driven content that feels organic but converts.

I love how your brand elevates everyday style. I can see strong performing angles around styling versatility, “one accessory transforms the outfit,” and close up texture shots paired with aspirational lifestyle moments.

I create short form content optimized for TikTok and Reels with scroll stopping hooks, natural testimonial delivery, and high-retention editing.

Would love to send over a few custom concepts tailored to your current campaign goals if you're okay with that!

Looking forward to connecting,

Best,
Lauren C****

Thanks, git, I could have happily lived my entire life without ever seeing the words "unborn HEAD".

I could not finish "Project Hail Mary." The part where "humanity joined forces under the leadership of UN" first made me laugh out loud and then just made me angry.

Incorporating sashiko.dev into b4 review LIKE A BOSS.

So, *this* is what it feels like to be boosted by jwz. ;)

About a cm of ice on everything, not 3. Still have power, but may change overnight if winds pick up.

Montreal is about to be hit by a bad ice storm -- 2-3 cm of ice on everything forecasted. I hope they got it wrong, but if not, I may lose power for a few days.

May be time to invest into an ecoflow home battery and a vehicle that can do v2h.

Happy International Women's Day! Being a woman in any male dominated field (which, let's face it, is most) is hard, and that certainly includes Technology.

Don't feel discouraged! You are a part of the change, and we're here to support you 💪♀️🌎
