Yesterday at Red Hat Summit @jorge and @cgwalters presented to a full house of Red Hat employees to walk through the state of atomic / image-based Linux and where we can go from here.

Fedora and Red Hat are looking at what we're doing with bootable containers and are interested in carrying that forward!

The laminate dimensions are all wrong.
That’s a computer font, not an IBM Selectric Orator type ball.
That’s not my original sketch, which was on a National engineering pad.

I know weird opinion, but if it’s “Chrome only” it’s not the Web.

It’s Flash, but worse.

Besides introducing a new brand, Fedora Atomic Desktops had some specific updates to it in the Fedora 40 release.

As a refresher, we're talking about Silverblue, Kinoite, Sway Atomic (was Sericea), and Budgie Atomic (was Onyx) - all under one umbrella!

Something I've been noticing about search engines (well, google) recently is how bad they are at respecting word order in cases where it matters. Like, you search "convert x to y" and they match "convert y to x". Or this morning I'm searching "inset diamond in square equation" and i am indeed finding overwhelmingly things that contain both the words "diamond" and "equation", such as the "diamond method" for quadratics. But nothing related to insetting diamonds in squares.

But no, "AI search" now means and is only ever going to mean "a markov chain bot with some extra layers is going to make up a sentence which plausibly resembles English text and contains one or more of your keywords". Which is not a problem I need or want to solve. I have MegaHAL at home.

WordPress "growth hacking"

Javi:

Back in 2019, working on WordPress, I started finding myself, almost weekly, arguing against people who wanted to take the product we were working at and made it worse if that mean they could squeeze 0.1% more revenue...
