We rejected that approach because it would have made the organization vulnerable to being taken over by people who disagreed with its mission. If a large fraction of the free software user community disagrees with us in a particular way, it would be no surprise if many of them joined the organization, with or without any particular plan, and then voted to change the mission. Governments must be democratic because they exercise broad power over people, but activist organizations should be steady in their mission. Already in 1985, we could see that many of the people who appreciated the GNU Project's work (developing useful GNU software packages) did not support our goal and values. To look at software issues in terms of freedom was radical and many were reluctant to consider it, so they continued to evaluate programs based on practical convenience. If the FSF were member-governed, it would soon have hundreds of members who considered our goals and values unimportant and would vote to dispense with them -- if they could. To avoid that sad end, we had to design the organization not to be vulnerable to this danger. So we chose a structure whereby the FSF's governing body would appoint new people to itself.

Flask provides a good foundation for building new applications using the 12-factor methodology, effectively increasing our web team’s speed and efficiency in adding new features. Because our web team works on both the website and the product’s UI we decided to take operational improvements one step further by providing a way to stand up in a few simple commands a fully integrated and observable Kubernetes environment for their Flask apps. Our solution, called 12- factor charms, provides an easy to use abstraction layer over existing Canonical products and it is aimed at application developers who create applications based on the 12-factor methodology. * ⚓ Canonical ☛ How_we_used_Flask_and_12-factor_charms_to_simplify Canonical.com_development⠀⇛ Learn how Canonical is using Python Flask and the 12-factor charm framework to simplify the development of Canonical.com and Ubuntu.com ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 357 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Debian_12_9_Bookworm_Arrives_with_72_Bug_Fixes_and_38_Security_.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Debian_12_9_Bookworm_Arrives_with_72_Bug_Fixes_and_38_Security_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian 12.9 “Bookworm” Arrives with 72 Bug Fixes and 38 Security Updates⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Jan 11, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Debian_12.9⦈_ Coming a little over two months after Debian 12.8 and powered the Linux 6.1 LTS series, Debian 12.9 is the eighth point release of Debian Bookworm.

Back then, together we went through a period of intense creativity, standing side by side in the battle for a patent-free real-time Linux. Though our paths as contributors have taken different directions, we have always known that our friendship would endure. We got into the habit of sending each other pings of life, where Italian and French jokes punctuated our conversations. Last December, it was my turn to put on a smile in his mailbox. But Paolo didn't answer me. He left before, on tiptoe, mischievous as he often was in our discussions. This time I have to admit that you didn't make me laugh, my friend. Paolo used to describe himself as a simple practitioner of software development, one of whose missions was to contribute a free real-time system his students could use, study and improve for their research work at the university, welcoming others to join. Many Linux users and businesses owe him a lot, because under his leadership, the RTAI project has always defended the freedom of developers to implement real-time systems, particularly at times when it was threatened. His fierce will for RTAI served the Xenomai project, as well as others.

In this post, we will discuss what is still missing to continue our journey to the top of Mt. Resilience. While discussing the missing ingredient, we will also broaden our view once more and find a familiar obstacle on our way. Let us get started. * ⚓ Josh Betz ☛ Simplicity_First:_Why_Readable_Code_Is_Better_Code⠀⇛ Readable code matters more than we like to admit. It’s not just written once and forgotten; it’s read over and over again—by teammates, new hires, and sometimes by you, months or years later. In those moments, you will appreciate clear, simple code. The temptation to future-proof everything is real. You imagine all the ways your code might need to change and try to prepare for them upfront. But here’s the thing: if you control the deployment pipeline, you don’t have to solve every problem now. Start simple. Simple code is easier to read, easier to understand, and, when the time comes, easier to adapt. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ Dyson’s_Algorithm_for_the_Twelve_Coins_Problem⠀⇛ Here’s the version I set out to solve: "You have twelve coins, exactly identical in appearance; but possibly one is counterfeit (we’ll call it a “dud”). You do not know if a dud is present, nor whether it is heavier or lighter than the good coins. Can you determine in three weighings on a balance scale: (1) whether there is a dud, (2) if so, which coin, and (3) its relative weight (lighter or heavier than the good coins)?" * ⚓ Terence Eden ☛ Graphing_the_connections_between_my_blog_posts⠀⇛ Internal links back to the Post is slightly trickier. WordPress doesn't save relational information like that. Instead, we get the Post's URl and search for that in the database.

Our solution, called 12-factor charms, provides an easy to use abstraction layer over existing Canonical products and it is aimed at application developers who create applications based on the 12-factor methodology. As part of this blog post we will introduce the 12 factor charms in the context of the Flask, however the same also applies to 12-factor applications that are built using the following frameworks: [...] * § Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Realizing_why_Go_reflection_restricts what_struct_fields_can_be_modified⠀⇛ Recently I read Rust, reflection and access rules. Among other things, it describes how a hypothetical Rust reflection system couldn't safely allow access to private fields of things, and especially how it couldn't allow code to set them through reflection. My short paraphrase of the article's discussion is that in Rust, private fields can be in use as part of invariants that allow unsafe operations to be done safely through suitable public APIs. This brought into clarity what had previously been a somewhat odd seeming restriction in Go's reflect package. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ It’s_IP,_Over_TOSLINK!⠀⇛ At the recent 38C3 conference in Germany, someone gave a talk about sending TOSLINK digital audio over fiber optic networks rather than the very low-end short distance fibre you’ll find behind hour CD player. This gave [Manawyrm] some ideas, so of course the IP-over TOSLINK network was born. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1232 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Security_and_Windows_TCO_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Security_and_Windows_TCO_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security and Windows TCO Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 11, 2025 * ⚓ APNIC ☛ First_penguin_advantage_in_cryptography?⠀⇛ Deprecating SHA-256, RSA, ECDSA, and ECDH key usage ahead of quantum computing? * ⚓ Pen Test Partners ☛ The_unexpected_effects_of_GPS_spoofing_on_aviation safety⠀⇛ GPS is one service in the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS).

But is it actually used by their employees? This is particularly common in engineering, when an access management solution procured by IT/security is simply ignored by engineers due to real or perceived inconvenience and a belief that such measures will inhibit productivity. For example, only 23% of IT professionals said they have visibility into their team’s tool usage. Advertisement Alert fatigue and shadow access are just two examples of “security theater.” The broader problem is that most organizations are being swept up in security theatrics instead of adopting meaningful security measures. o ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Cell_C_was_hit_by_ransomware_gang⠀⇛ A ransomware group called RansomHouse appears to have been responsible for an attack on Cell C that compromised the data of some of its clients, TechCentral has established. o ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ HexaLocker_V2_Reveals_New_Stealth_Features_And Tactics⠀⇛ HexaLocker first emerged in mid-2024, quickly capturing the attention of security experts due to its aggressive tactics and effective encryption methods. Initially, it operated using the popular encryption standard TOXID for communication and a straightforward file-encrypting approach. However, by the end of 2024, a new version, HexaLocker V2, began to surface. This updated version incorporates a host of advanced features designed to enhance the ransomware’s effectiveness and persistence. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1365 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Sigil_2_4_Open_Source_EPUB_Ebook_Editor_Released_with_New_Featu.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/01/11/Sigil_2_4_Open_Source_EPUB_Ebook_Editor_Released_with_New_Featu.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Sigil 2.4 Open-Source EPUB Ebook Editor Released with New Features and Bug Fixes⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Jan 11, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Sigil_2.4⦈_ Sigil 2.4 introduces new features like a GetInfo dialog, along with a right- click menu option, for XHTML files that provide a collection of information specific to that file without having to run Reports, including a word count, as well as support for multiple semantics per XHTML file, while uncommon is technically allowed by the spec.

Version 20250108 sports the 6.12.8 Linux kernel, MESA 24.3.3, Wayland 1.23.1, and more. The list of options now also includes the s6 init system. Venom is one of the more recent Linux distros currently in the wild.
