Hey, #FediHire me! 🥳
I'm looking for a decent #job, preferably remote.
Any help is appreciated.

I bring a ton of skills and more than a decade of experience as a #software #engineer, have been working mostly on #web #applications and some #mobile over the years, and done lots of #systems programming and #firmware in my spare time projects. 🧑‍💻⚙️

My main languages are Rust and JavaScript/TypeScript.
I'm based in Germany.

More details and CV are at dan.orangecms.org/.

Please #boost, thanks!

Lite XL – Lightweight and Powerful Text-Editing – Version 2.1.8r1 for AmigaOS 4.1 Released!

Hi there,

Thanks for visiting my blog. 🙂

A new version of the lightweight and powerful text-editor Lite XL has been released for AmigaOS 4.1. This time it is version 2.1.68r1.

The port is being maintained by George Sokianos a.k.a Walkero. The program itself was created by Francesco Abbate and the Lite XL team.

George Sokianos writes as follows about the new release on his Ko-fi page:

This new version is the first one that uses SDL3, the latest version of the SDL framework that powers it. Unfortunately, with that, there comes some slowdown in the editor that is visible with an increased CPU usage and having the scrolling and animations being slower. I put great effort the past 3 weeks profiling the code and providing all the necessary information to the original Lite XL team, as well as Capehill who is responsible for the SDL3 port to AmigaOS 4, and BeWorld who does the same for MorphOS.

If you’re interested in getting the hold of the new version, it can be freely download from OS4Depot via the link below:

Thanks again for visiting my blog! See you in another post here on Old School Game Blog!

Best regards,

Puni

@amoroso @lproven Well, I can think of many ways how to improve #computers. 😉

Once you've got rid of #filenames, #folders, #applications, ... you will find much room for coming up with something fundamental new. This
time without adapting humans for the computer but the otherwise round: creating the ultimate digital tool for the humans.

This can never be reached by an evolutionary process like suggested in the article.

I disagree with the judgment that we tried hard.

There's no incentive for a revolution. No one is able to start this process. We're pretty much stuck. 🫩

This is not the top of the IT industry. We're still in its stone age and made a situation where any fundamental change is a downside somehow. A local optimum but never ever the global one, if you like.

“The nature of scientific progress is that it sometimes provides powerful tools that can be wielded for good or for ill: splitting the atom and nuclear weapons being a case in point. In such cases, it’s necessary that researchers involved in developing such #technologies participate actively in the ethical and political discussions about the appropriate boundaries for their use. Computer vision is one area in which more voices need to be heard.”

…

“This study backs up with clear evidence what many have long suspected: that computer-vision research is being used mainly in surveillance-enabling #applications.”
