TIL about I³C, "Improved Inter-Integrated Circuit" (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I3C_(bus)>). I assume the next generation will be named "Immensely Improved Inter-Integrated Circuit"

But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

Developing Typst Packages on Codeberg I'm currently on a quest to move most of my open source activity to Codeberg; with regards to Typst packages, this is now a bit more convenient (and even better than Github!)

To move my #Typst packages over to #Codeberg, I have adapted the community's package template to be more compatible with #Forgejo 's action runners. It's not drop-in, but simplifies the task.

A screenshot of the text "-2 commits to main since this release", where "-2 commits" is a link

A screenshot of the text "-2 commits to main since this release", where "-2 commits" is a link

When you create a release from an unmerged PR on #Codeberg (to test the release workflow, fyi), the number of "commits to main since this release" is reported as negative

Microsoft Gave FBI BitLocker Encryption Keys, Exposing Privacy Flaw The tech giant said providing encryption keys was a standard response to a court order. But companies like Apple and Meta set up their systems so such a privacy violation isn’t possible.
