@minoru if your niche programming language skills are getting rusty, is that a good or a bad thing?

Oh, okay. Any suggestions for a new language to learn in 2024?

@ljs @vbabka @krzk for the record, there is still a good chance things will go sideways with b4 send, but at this point it should work fairly reliably for the majority of workflows. It's only when someone tries to be more creative than we expect when things go boom.

I was always using git branch --edit-description && git format-patch && git send-email, but now I tried preparing and sending patchset with b4 (b4 prep && b4 send). It works great! It is trivial in use and really solves the workflow. I cannot understand why people still Cc wrong people or are unable to send one patchset properly threaded.

Edit: --edit-cover->--edit-description

@vbabka @mpdesouza reflect specifically exists to populate all to and cc headers (without actually sending to them) and I think it would be confusing for people receiving such patches for pre-review.

From CZ to SBF, 2023 was the year of the fallen crypto bro

Going from zero to billionaire to zero is no crypto bro's dream.

Drew but 7/27/25 GA ➡️ Reprise

Because doesn't allow sex workers to post anything "pornographic" means they've decided that there absolutely is a line that cannot be crossed on their platform and they have now said OUT LOUD that literal Nazis do not cross that line.

Un-fucking-believable.

https://www.postfix.org/smtp-smuggling.html

"SMTP Smuggling" vulnerability in Postfix allows to spoof senders even in the presence of some DMARC checks. Configuration workarounds exist.

Also, a wholehearted f* you to SEC Consult, who sat on this since June and disclosed it to some closed-source vendors and MSPs, but could apparently not be bothered to give e.g. Postfix a heads-up, publishing this close to the holidays.

Boosts for awareness welcome.

Captain,

When we visit planets 4 and 8 of the Chan system, is the Prime Directive still in effect? They deserve some interference.

@LWN Thank you for accurately calling it "invasion of Ukraine" as opposed to "conflict in Ukraine." ❤️

The reason Ukraine is running out of artillery shells and other critically important supplies is, Speaker Mike Johnson in his clean suit on the left thinks, the weapons support to the Ukrainian soldier on the right can wait.

So Mike Johnson is now going home to celebrate Christmas with his family, while this soldier is trying to fight the Russian invasion with even less weapons.

The US deserves better politicians.

Lost this awesome boy to heart disease this morning. We knew it was coming, but it still hit us really hard.

I'll miss you so much, pal.

@drewdevault unfortunately, we already have too many examples of people always preferring familiarity and convenience over any but very immediately threatening environmental concerns.
