Dass die deutschen Klimaziele „sehr starr“ sind (Reiche), könnte daran liegen, dass sich die Naturgesetze so schlecht beugen lassen.

Das heißt: Die Gasheizungsbesitzer bekommen künftig mehr heraus, Wärmepumpenbesitzer nicht. Wer CO2-sparend heizt, wird bestraft (und zahlt für die Gaskunden mit).

Die Regierung belohnt erstmal alle, die die Propaganda von Union, FDP, KKR-Newslettern und AfD geglaubt haben.

Erst einmal nicht kommen wird eine im Koalitionsvertrag angekündigte Senkung der Stromsteuer auf das europäische Mindestmaß für alle. Bundeswirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche von der CDU sagte beim Tag der Industrie in Berlin, hier treffe sozusagen Koalitionsvertrag auf finanzielle Möglichkeit und Wirklichkeit.Das bedeute, für die Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher gebe es an der Stelle weniger. Verbraucher würden aber bei der Gasspeicherumlage und Netzentgelten entlastet.

@wyri hm I have only 406 total parts on the list instead of 412 .. let the debugging begin

2025-06-24

@wyri List should be complete, can you verify it eventually :)

2025-06-24

@wyri good Idea - 5520+1748 that's it!

2025-06-23

@wyri @ramsey @sebastian yeah sure, but I was hoping that at least the parts without the print are available ... but the best eyes I found are those bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catal ... mean's the elePHPant looked to much at the screen and eyes became rectangular :)

2025-06-23

@wyri @ramsey @sebastian I am trying to collect them at bricklink but at least the eyes seems to be very tailor made and not to exist on brick link :-(

A PHP elephant built using LEGO bricks. The image includes the words “My elePHPant” and “412 pcs.” and includes the PhpStorm and Bricked-it logos.

@filippo No, absolutely no. The library (and by extension its maintainer) did not take down those sites. We should never use or accept language that even indirectly suggests this.*

Whoever took the library and used it without sufficient testing "took down" the sites. It only matters that the bug is old or obvious in that it *directly points out* how the company using the library failed to take the necessary precautions.

*It's the same kind of language that places blame on victims: "look at what you made me do"; other examples would need a cw..

@filippo @julijane When this happened for the first time, companies relying on this library (banks?) could have financially supported the project or put one of their developers to work on this and contribute back to the project. It's not the fault of the OSS maintainer and luckily OSS licenses contain a "no warranty" claim.

Amongst other things, there's an open source software supply chain story here.

This Android library with 174 stars and one maintainer has taken down Monday.com, Eventbrite (!!!), UPS, Kraken, Lowe's, YBS, IKEA, Agibank, iFood, PagBank, pago.ro, and Udemy.

Again, this is the same failure mode that caused outages in 2023.

@filippo ah probably from the email domains in the google issue issuetracker.google.com/issues ? Interesting :-)

@filippo what's the source of this list of apps using this library?

This felt too valuable not to share. Braille-labeled maps of washrooms to help people find and use facilities in the washroom. Everyone deserves to get in, do their business, wash their hands, and get out in peace and safety.

This seems valuable for all public spaces.

If you want to find the longest `opening_hours` tag in #OpenStreetMap, you can use this #Postpass SQL query!

SELECT tags, geom
FROM postpass_pointlinepolygon
ORDER BY length(tags->>'opening_hours') desc nulls last
limit 1

That's it. #SQL is really powerful. 🙂

I saw this yesterday and can't stop thinking about it.

The trolly problem. Five people are tied to the track ahead of the trolly, but the alternate track is clear. A person stands at the switch to divert the trolly. Text reads, "You can pull the lever, but to do so you must wear a mask at the grocery store."
