When created their new logo with :// in it, the team behind reached out to me and asked if I had any objections since already was using :// in our logo.

I did not object - I approved of it. I think it validated our logo choice and I am jealous they have a name that can hold :// integrated the way they do.

(I was employed by Mozilla at the time)

@bagder I found this on my laptop, from January 30th 2016, at Fosdem. The end result is a lot better!

@bagder I stand by my design! It clearly conveys the message that the people who made it know about code :)

@FrankGevaerts@mastodon.social avatar

@bagder Perfect! Change it immediately :)

@bagder In hindsight that looks better than what I did with it :)

In the project, being written in C, we always work on simplifying the code. One way is to use more internal helper functions and avoid direct use of some functions that are often involved in C mistakes/vulnerabilities.

To measure how this develops, we count number of these function calls used per every thousand lines of code. Over time.
In a graph.

@bagder A graph? But it's not Friday!

It is already six years ago introduced bold names when showing headers in the terminal!

@bagder a bold decision!

Out of the several hundred persons who saw my two talks during the weekend. One(!) has provided feedback using the site. On the bad mike/speaker setup.

My point is mostly to fellow speakers: don't assume people will use that system to say anything. Good or bad.,

I had maybe 20 people tell me to my face they liked one or both of my talks. A better feedback channel!

@peturdainn @bagder My first FOSDEM was 2002, although I did also go to OSDEM in 2001 :)

Today, seven years ago, "borrowed" the concept of using :// in the logo:

Is Imitation the Sincerest Form of Flattery ?

@bagder I remember experimenting with logos over coffee at fosdem. Good times!

We are happy to tell you that we accept your proposal "Broom not included: curling the modern way" in the Network devroom at 2024.

It looks like I will blab at FOSDEM again.

@bagder "Brotli in curl" or "Header compression in h2" feel like ideal subjects!

I found out about and started using Emacs in the 1991-1992 time frame to write C code.

Over thirty years later I still today primarily write C code using Emacs. All day, every day.

Any bets on what I will use to write what in another thirty years? =)

FrankGevaerts,
@FrankGevaerts@mastodon.social avatar

@bagder curl, with emacs, in c89!

doing multiple things at the same time is not good, and double so if one of them is updating your system... 😐

suddenly my debian sid lost network connectivity and so do check this bug

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1055067

before updating (and watch carefully, as it ended up removing network-manager here

FrankGevaerts,
@FrankGevaerts@mastodon.social avatar

@peturdainn I agree with those things. I removed network-manager years ago :)
