From the Mozilla Summary Portfolio Strategy 2026-2028: "The idea is to create a bidirectional flywheel that gains momentum over time" - now my physics isn't the best, but even I have problems with that analogy. I suppose it could work if they mean something heavy that keeps on trying to change course and yet ends up going nowhere?

ABC - Accurate 🖇️ Bi-directional 🖱️ Cursor-level linking system built in 🚅 SilverBullet

My sincere thanks to Dr. @zef for providing Lego-like modules to bring this vision to life in SilverBullet: github.com/silverbulletmd/silv.

Here's Code: github.com/ChenZhu-Xie/xczphys
A comparable implementation in LaTeX too: tex.stackexchange.com/a/722065

Have you encountered such an innovation in any other note-taking app?

Ever wondered how a link can look safe but hide a trap? Cybercriminals are using a Unicode trick called the BiDi Swap to make fake URLs appear legit. Find out how this sneaky hack works and how to stay one step ahead.

After one direction of the 40 bus was committed, the chart pictured here looked better than others I tested before. But after getting halfway done updating stops in the opposite direction the diagram is looking off. The Essex park & ride has a full circle, and I expect the West Baltimore MARC station will also when I get there, given those stops are, um, #bidirectional .

charging does not just mean communicating with the vehicle in the right language. It also means complying with strict requirements of the AC grid and, on the DC side, of the vehicle battery.

🔋 Spain & Portugal had major blackouts yesterday. can help: with large batteries and , they power homes and support the grid. 🚗 Norway, Sweden and the Netherlands lead the way - others, including Germany, must catch up. It’s time to rethink what cars can do. ⚡️🏛️

Yesterday, I noticed Benedkit has archived the repository of #Hugo #Vitae theme:

github.com/dataCobra/hugo-vita

I've been using this theme for a long time for my personal blog(which has got a very top notch domain!). Recently, a group of #Persian #FOSS contributors and I added #RTL and #bidirectional text support to Vitae. We had forgotten to send a PR upstream. As I found Benedikt is no longer interested in maintaining vitae, I took over and also moved the code hosting to codeberg:

codeberg.org/farooqkz/hugo-vit

The first thing I did was merging RTL support but a regression happened. And someone opened an issue while the repository was still hot, reporting a regression. I fixed the regression. Now Vitae supports both LTR and RTL. There are few "meta" things which still needs to be done tho.

If you want to see a website with vitae but RTL, see my Persian blog:

Folks, I do need some advice related to #hardware please. My #homeoffice desk and it's surroundings are home to 2 machines running #Win10 , 1 machine running #PopOS and one machine running the #ubuntu office server. I am obviously running out of space for input devices. Does anyone have experience with #bidirectional #USB #switch|es for more than 2 machines and more than 2 devices per machine? I think I really do need one of those, but have no clue, which one to buy.

please RT.

It's so hard for me to understand what #mozilla is doing.

Its like they don't care about technology or users that much at this point and the higherups are looking for a cash grab.

That horrible decision in the terms of usage and license agreement and the fact that #thunderbird doesn't support RTL languages (Persian, Arabic, Hebrew etc.) And the whole RTL user base of firefox are depending on the bidi-mail-ui extension, which the maintainer says is so hacky because mozilla doesn't document and communicate changes, is INSANE.

It's 2025, and mozilla is totally disregarding ~15% of the world that use RTL writing.

Issues, discissions and requests for native BiDi support have been said for years. BiDi support is a basic ability.

Выявление biderectional unicode троянов

Двое специалистов в своей довольно старой публикации Trojan Source: Invisible Vulnerabilities описали одну из интересных атак, суть которой заключается в следующем: при просмотре исходного кода вы видите одно, но при компиляции в конечном приложении будет реализована совсем другая логика. Суть атаки проста: не все редакторы кода отображаются unicode символы и рецензенты кода их попросту не увидят. Для реализации атаки необходимо использовать определенные символы в кодировке unicode, которые заставляют компилятор читать исходный код в другом направлении либо вызывать совсем другие функции.

Hi @thunderbird
Could you please consider support for #bidirectional text in Thunderbird, too? (Like what other mail clients such as Roundcube, Gmail, etc have). So that there won't be a need to use add-ones to write RTL and LTR texts.

Here's a link to the issue:
