Yes, you can store data on a bird — enthusiast converts PNG to bird-shaped waveform, teaches young starling to recall file at up to 2MB/s Who needs Starlink when you've got an actual starling

Henceforth, I shall be referring to aviaries as data warehouses.

The Quest for Reading Time Estimates, Part 2: Implementation and Verification. I attempt to implement a better reading time estimate for blog posts.

I tried to find a better formula for reading time estimates of online articles. ⏳ 📖

Well, joke's on me: the topic is academically interesting, but in practice there's no problem to solve. It was a fun exercise, nevertheless 😁

Covert Web-to-App Tracking via Localhost on Android

The abhorrence that #Meta exhibits towards #anonymous browsing and the creativity with which they undermine it never ceases to amaze me.

The Quest for Reading Time Estimates, Part 1: Finding an Appropriate Formula. I am unhappy with the popular solutions to estimate reading time and scour the literature for better altenatives.

So, I inadvertently geeked out on a minor detail while setting up my new blog 😅

It's a learning experience for sure. But a structured experimental approach will get you there! Dough prep is about 80% of the art imo 🙂

Web Accessibility as an Opportunity, Part 2: A Solid Technical Foundation Digital accessibility requires a clean technical foundation and contributes to maintainability and search engine optimization

Opinion: a #website that is truly #accessible in accordance with the #WCAG is implicitly superior on an engineering level.

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

#DOGE allegedly wants to migrate ALL #SSA services to new computer systems within "a few months". That's delusional even for a competent agency. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Barrierefreiheit im Web als Chance, Teil 1: User Experience Digitale Barrierefreiheit ist eine Chance, die User Experience und Inklusion zu verbessern und trägt so positiv zum Geschäftserfolg bei.

Es wäre schade, wenn der #European #Accessibility Act bzw. das #Barrierefreiheitsgesetz von Unternehmen als sinnlose gesetzliche Hürde empfunden wird. Alternative Perspektive: justament-consulting.at/blog/2025-03...

Anyone can push updates to the doge.gov website | Hacker News

#DOGE supposedly left the endpoints of their website backend wide open. Those are the people that push for access to critical information and infrastructure. WCGW? news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4304...

@derstandard.at ringt mir in diesen politisch harten Zeiten noch ein Schmunzeln ab. Ich weiß garnicht, welcher dumme Schmäh am besten passt. Irgendwas mit dem baulichen Zustand der #Hofburg? Oder was mit #Radikalisierung und #FPÖ? IDK, take your pick ...

Österreichischer wird es nicht mehr. Man muss sich das vorstellen: eine Gerichtspräsidentin versengt das Handy eines Justiz-Sektionschefs, weil sie es nicht in Händen der Korruptionsermittler sehen will. Und sagt das dann salopp so aus.

This is why a random number generator would outperform me on the #stockmarket.

#DeepSeek: releases #R1, runs on #Nvidia hardware
Me: "that probably strengthens Nvidias global position"
Nvidias #shares: 📉
Me: 🤷

Sam Altman ist der Chef von OpenAI und somit Herr über ChatGPT, das vielleicht gesellschaftlich mächtigste Technik-Tool der nächsten Jahre. Er "bekehrt" sich nun öffentlich zu Trump. This is scary.
