Every Linux PC I've used in the last 15 years has come with screen pre-installed, whether it was the most barebone version of Debian for a headless server or a fully-fledged desktop operating system like Kubuntu. This has been especially handy when I'm working with headless servers that I don't intend to ever put on the internet. I don't need to worry about whether my SSH session is going to crash the long job I just queued because I don't have the right program. Screen is going to be available. On the other hand, tmux is far from universal. There is no guarantee that I'll always have the required permissions to install a different terminal multiplexer.

The core is a single SQL file (absurd.sql) that defines stored procedures for task management, checkpoint storage, event handling, and claim-based scheduling. On top of that sit thin SDKs (currently TypeScript, Python and an experimental Go one) that make the system ergonomic in your language of choice. The model is straightforward: you register tasks, decompose them into steps, and each step acts as a checkpoint. If anything fails, the task retries from the last completed step. Tasks can sleep, wait for external events, and suspend for days or weeks. All state lives in Postgres. If you want the full introduction, the original blog post covers the fundamentals. What follows here is what we’ve learned since. * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾ o ⚓ Joost de Valk ☛ WordPress_needs_to_refactor,_not_redecorate⠀⇛ When Cloudflare launched EmDash CMS on April 1st, the reactions came fast — from Matt Mullenweg himself, from Hendrik Luehrsen at Kraut.press, and from Brian Coords. Each piece approached EmDash differently, but together they crystallized something I’ve been thinking about for years: WordPress’s deepest technical problems aren’t at the surface. They’re architectural. And the WordPress project keeps treating them as cosmetic. A Cloudflare piece on application modernization offers a useful way to think about this. When organizations modernize legacy applications, they generally pick from three approaches: cosmetic changes (move to new infrastructure, change nothing underneath), targeted refactoring (rework the architecture in specific areas while preserving what works), or a full rewrite (start from scratch). Most successful organizations mix and match, picking the right approach for each component based on risk and business value. The worst thing you can do is mistake cosmetic changes for real modernization. WordPress, right now, is doing exactly that. And the responses to EmDash show why. * § FSF / Software Freedom⠀➾ o ⚓ Andrew Nesbitt ☛ What_does_Open_Source_mean?⠀⇛ Every few months someone declares that “X will kill open source” or that “open source is not sustainable” or that “open source won”, and every time the responses split into factions that seem to be having completely different conversations. People have been pointing this out for at least a decade. Replacement terms like “post-open source” never stuck, because the problem isn’t the label. The phrase “open source” carries so many meanings that people routinely talk past each other while using the exact same words, each person confident the other is being obtuse when really they’re just working from a different definition. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Akseli Lahtinen ☛ Frustrations_with_CalDAV_tasks⠀⇛ The problem with CalDAV tasks is often that every client only implements a portion of the massive spec. Sure, makes sense, nobody wants to implement all the stuff it has. But then you try to use different apps with it, and they all expect different things for such simple thing as marking a task done. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 636 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Games_Godot_Threat_From_Microsofters_Microsoft_Thurrott_Tries_S.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Games_Godot_Threat_From_Microsofters_Microsoft_Thurrott_Tries_S.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Godot Threat From Microsofters, Microsoft Thurrott Tries Steam on GNU/Linux, and "Civilization VI Linux Testing Shows Proton's Superiority"⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 05, 2026 * ⚓ Godot Engine ☛ Godot_Showcase_–_Xogot:_Godot_for_iPad_&_iPhone [Ed: Miguel_de_Icaza infects Godot]⠀⇛ Miguel de Icaza from Xibbon shares his experience working on Xogot for iOS. * ⚓ Paul Thurrott ☛ Switcher_2026:_Linux_Gaming_First_Steps_⭐️_- Thurrott.com⠀⇛ Thanks to Valve's work on SteamOS and its underlying Proton compatibility engine, Linux can be viable as a Windows alternative for gaming. * ⚓ Civilization_VI_Linux_Testing_Shows_Proton's_Superiority⠀⇛ Enthusiasts conducted an interesting benchmarking the popular strategy game Civilization VI on the Linux operating system.

And curiosity, in Linux, is usually just a socially acceptable way of saying, “I’m about to break something that was working perfectly fine five minutes ago.” The machine in question? My lab box is running Ubuntu 25.10. Not exactly the safest place to experiment with a Wayland-first, highly opinionated window manager. Which is precisely why it felt like the right place to do it. Hyprland has this reputation. Not just as a tool, but as a thing people get weirdly attached to. The kind of setup they post videos of with captions like “finally dialed in” as if they’ve tuned a race car instead of a desktop. I wanted to see what the fuss was about.

Public-key cryptographic algorithms such as RSA and ECC will soon have to be replaced due to the advance of quantum computers that will be able to crack such encryption within a few hours to days using Shor’s algorithm. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Reverse-Engineering_A_Handheld_Car_Tire_Pressure_Gauge⠀⇛ Perhaps unsurprisingly, there isn’t a whole lot inside these devices once you pop them open to reveal the PCB. The MEMS device is a tiny device at the top, which has the pressurized air from the tire guided to it. The small hole inside the metal can leads to the internals that consist of a thin diaphragm with four piezoresistors that enable measurements on said diaphragm from which pressure can be determined. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Heathkit_Tuner_Saved_From_Junk_Pile⠀⇛ As you can see in the video below, it needed a lot of love to get back to its former self. The device dates from around 1965, when the kit cost $130. In 1965, that was a lot of money. Back then, that would have bought you about four ounces of gold and would have been a great down payment on a $1,500 VW bug. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Scrap_Vintage_Camera_Goes_Digital_With_Scanner_Parts⠀⇛ Every collector ends up with items that are worthless, usually because they are broken or incomplete. When [Graindead] found a 1920s glass-plate reflex camera for pennies with plenty of missing parts, it was obvious that what he had was a piece of junk. Throw it away? No, he turned it digital with the aid of a small document scanner. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Making_A_Vintage_Allen_Scythe_Electric⠀⇛ The Allen Scythe is one of those fantastic pieces of vintage agricultural machinery which would never be allowed to be manufactured today for health and safety reasons. It’s a two- wheel walk-behind device with a frightening reciprocating cutter bar which makes short work of almost anything.

I planned to keep contributing and exploring the community, and these past few weeks have been busy * ⚓ Facundo Olano ☛ What_is_this_and_Why_is_it_here?⠀⇛ As I worked on my programming style guide, channeling my inner code reader, recalling what it is like to dive into an unfamiliar codebase—to look for clues in its components and effectively extract knowledge from them—a particular formulation came to mind: what is this and why is it here?. I realized that looking for answers to those questions, and supplying them myself, makes up a large part of my work on software projects. These questions apply to artifacts of all sizes, from humble functions to entire projects, from a pull request description to the user story that it (hopefully) originated from. Behold yet another hyperbolic definition of the software development process: to answer what is this and why is it here, over and over. * ⚓ Unmitigated Risk ☛ Confidential_Computing’s_Inconvenient_Truth⠀⇛ Confidential computing has a vulnerability record that grows every year, an attestation infrastructure that does not work at scale, and a hardware root of trust with a demonstrated shelf life. This piece explains why. * ⚓ [Old] Imperial College London ☛ A_Conversation_with_Alan_Kay⠀⇛ When you want to gain a historical perspective on personal computing and programming languages, why not turn to one of the industry’s preeminent pioneers? That would be Alan Kay, winner of last year’s Turing Award for leading the team that invented Smalltalk, as well as for his fundamental contributions to personal computing. * ⚓ [Old] Imperial College London ☛ How_To_Write_Unmaintainable_Code⠀⇛ In the interests of creating employment opportunities in the Java programming field, I am passing on these tips from the masters on how to write code that is so difficult to maintain, that the people who come after you will take years to make even the simplest changes. Further, if you follow all these rules religiously, you will even guarantee yourself a lifetime of employment, since no one but you has a hope in hell of maintaining the code. * § R / R-Script⠀➾ o ⚓ Rlang ☛ One_interface,_(Almost)_Every_Classifier:_unifiedml v0.2.1⠀⇛ This post contains advanced examples of use of unifiedml for classification, with ranger and xgboost. More examples have been added to the package vignettes too. * § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ o ⚓ [Old] Chris Zietlow ☛ Tmux⠀⇛ Working from neovim and writing go code I find myself often cycling through multiple terminal windows while working on projects. This cycles between iterm and ghostty terminal and splits within neovim itself depending on my environment. Often resulting in a cacophony of windows, panes, and red yarn connecting the dots... There has to be a better way. Or moreover I'm tired of relying on a different set of application keybindings, alt-tab, and my mouse. The overall design of my workflow is to keep laser focus by keeping everything within a single window, and reducing the amount of time switching between different programs or reaching for the mouse. Tmux has always been the obvious answer for improvement. * § Java/Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ Chris Zietlow ☛ Go_JSON_Unmarshaling⠀⇛ When working with an API that returned json with inconsistent types, json.Unmarshal would fail because it was mapped to a matching Go type via tags in the struct. The solution was to create a new type to support any permutation of data the API might return, and have that type implement Unmarshaler or UnmarshalerFrom interfaces to add the logic to decode this correctly. * § Rust⠀➾ o ⚓ Alexander_Bokovoy:_kurbu5:_MIT_Kerberos_plugins_in_Rust⠀⇛ For a couple of years, Andreas Schneider and I have been working on a project we call the ‘local authentication hub’: an effort to use the Kerberos protocol to track authentication and authorization context for applications, regardless of whether the system they run on is enrolled into a larger organizational domain or is standalone.

I knew I was moving into a whole new ecosystem, and I had an idea as to what I wanted to test out, but other than that, I had no idea what I was getting into. So, I just sort of jumped in and gave Linux a try. Fortunately, my experience with the FOSS operating system landscape was really positive, and I've stuck with Linux ever since. However, I've come to realise that one of the biggest parts of Linux that I never expected to love as much as I do is the rollback tools available to you, especially the ones you don't even need to set up.

peppe8o ☛ How_to_Use_Streamlit_with_Raspberry_PI:_Deploy_Web_Apps_in Minutes_with_Python⠀⇛ In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to install and use Streamlit with Raspberry PI computer boards. This will enable you to fastly deploy web apps directly from your Python scripts, without the need to have html, Javascript, or CSS skills. * ⚓ InfoQ ☛ TigerFS_Mounts_PostgreSQL_Databases_as_a_Filesystem_for Developers_and_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Agents⠀⇛ TigerFS is a new experimental filesystem that mounts a database as a directory and stores files directly in PostgreSQL. The open source project exposes database data through a standard filesystem interface, allowing developers and Hey Hi (AI) agents to interact with it using common Unix tools such as ls, cat, find, and grep, rather than via Hey Hi (AI) or SDKs. * ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_OpenJDK_21_on_Debian_13,_12_and_11⠀⇛ Java 21 is still the target release for many Spring Boot 3.x services, Gradle builds, and application servers, but Debian does not package it the same way on every stable release. * ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_Telnet_on_Fedora_Linux⠀⇛ It is faster to check whether a service answers at all before you open a full client or start digging through logs. * ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_OpenJDK_on_Fedora_Linux⠀⇛ Fedora’s current repositories already ship multiple OpenJDK tracks, which helps when one project still pins Java 21 LTS while another wants the current Fedora default JDK or the newest feature release. * ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_ReactJS_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ If you want to install ReactJS on Linux Mint 22 * ⚓ Adam_Young:_Maintaining_a_change_log_in_a_git_commit_message⠀⇛ Changes do not always get accepted upon initial submission. My current submission of the MCTP over PCC patch is at revision 37 and will likely have more. Previously, this patch was part of a series, and the change log was displayed in the series header email. However, now that I am down to a single patch, the change log should go in the email message with the patch attached. * ⚓ [Old] Colin Cogle ☛ "Do_It_Better:_SSH"⠀⇛ Let's talk about SSH. It is the quintessential Swiss army knife for system administrators. It can browse and transfer remote files, forward ports, proxy and tunnel traffic, but it's most famous for its eponymous job of giving you a remote shell, securely (hence its name). As processors have gotten faster and cheaper, and encryption has become almost frictionless, it's long since replaced Telnet for configuring embedded devices. In fact, even Microsoft acquiesced and made SSH a first-class citizen starting with Windows Server 2019. You'd think with SSH everywhere, it would be easy to configure, right? Well, you are right. In fact, the default configuration of OpenSSH is pretty secure, but I guarantee you're still not implementing it as well as you could. * ⚓ dwaves.de ☛ vim_what_config_files_does_it_actually_parse?_where_was what_option_set?⠀⇛ * ⚓ Dima Kogan ☛ Dima_Kogan:_Simple_gpx_export_from_ridewithgps⠀⇛ The Tour_de_Los_Padres is coming! The race organizer post the route_on_ridewithgps. This works, but has convoluted interfaces for people not wanting to use their service. I just wrote a simple script to export their data into a plain .gpx file, including all the waypoints. Their exporter omits those. * ⚓ Adam_Young:_A_PCC_driver_in_Qemu⠀⇛ In order to perform test driven development, you need a way to drive your code that can isolate behavior. GNU/Linux Kernel drivers that communicate with hardware devices can be hard to test: you might not have access to the hardware from your test systems, or the hardware may be flakey. I have such a set of issues with the Platform Communication Channel (PCC) drivers I am working with. My primary work has been with a network driver that only exists on the newest hardware. However, I also need to be able to handle some drivers that would only work against old hardware. There are also PCC based drivers for hardware that my company does not support or have access to. I might want to make a test to ensure that changes to the GNU/Linux Kernel PCC driver does not change its behavior against these drivers. There exists no system where all of these drivers would be supported. But I can build one with Qemu. The Qemu based driver might not completely simulate the hardware exactly as implemented, and that is OK: I want to be able to do things with Qemu I cannot do with current hardware. For example, the MCTP-over-PCC driver should be able to handle a wide array of messages, but the hardware I have access to only supports a very limited subset of message types. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1870 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Watchtower_Discontinued_and_Switching_from_sudo_to_doas.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Watchtower_Discontinued_and_Switching_from_sudo_to_doas.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Watchtower Discontinued and Switching from sudo to doas⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 05, 2026 * ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ Watchtower_Discontinued!_Here_Are_Alternative_Projects for_Your_Docker_Containers⠀⇛ Watchtower was the goto tool for keeping the containers updated timely.

Whenever you need to run something with elevated privileges, sudo just comes up automatically. But sudo is old, and there's a better way to elevate privileges in the Linux terminal you might be ignoring. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1907 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Web_Browsers_Web_Servers_Ratelimits_Wander_Console_0_4_0_and_Mo.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/05/Web_Browsers_Web_Servers_Ratelimits_Wander_Console_0_4_0_and_Mo.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Web Browsers/Web Servers: Ratelimits, Wander Console 0.4.0, and Mozilla⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 05, 2026 * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Web_server_ratelimits_are_a_precaution_to_let me_stop_worrying⠀⇛ These days, Wandering Thoughts has some hacked together HTTP request rate limits. They don't exist for strong technical reasons; my blog engine setup here can generally stand up to even fairly extreme traffic floods (through an extensive series of hacks). It's definitely possible to overwhelm Wandering Thoughts with a high enough request volume, and HTTP rate limits will certainly help with that, but that's not really why they exist. My HTTP rate limits exist for ultimately social reasons and because they let me stop worrying and stop caring about certain sorts of abuse. * ⚓ SusamPal ☛ Wander_Console_0.4.0⠀⇛ Wander Console 0.4.0 is the fourth release of Wander, a small, decentralised, self-hosted web console that lets visitors to your website explore interesting websites and pages recommended by a community of independent website owners.

RSS is alive, well, and as omnipresent as ever. You aren’t properly publishing content on the web if you aren’t also publishing in syndication formats. This is a general guide designed to help you understand, build, and distribute various formats of web feeds, even if you’ve never touched them before. We’re not going to run through all the uses and details of syndication feeds, because they’ve been covered ad nauseam elsewhere. Instead, this article is designed to act as a reference which focuses on the principles of various feed formats so that people can subscribe to your content.
