Game recognises game. Greatness recognises greatness. What an image and what a mark of respect. The youngest world champion in history and a driver whose talent we have only begun to see the surface scratched. Maturity beyond his years. This is just the start. Grande Kimi.

🚨 Il crée un script qui vide le budget du Parti socialiste via sa propre taxe sur les téléchargements ?

Un internaute a généré 30€ de taxe simulée en 4 heures en automatisant le téléchargement d’un fichier PDF hébergé sur le site du Parti socialiste.

La démonstration tion à l’Assemblée nationale d’un amendement du député socialiste Laurent Lhardit, instaurant une taxe de 0,055 € par Go de données transmis aux abonnés français.

Avec un script simulant des téléchargements répétés d’un PDF de 44 Mo consacré à Marc Bloch, l’ingénieur a calculé une taxe théorique de plus de 30€ après moins de 4 heures, pour 13 109 téléchargements et 576 Go de données. Il a ensuite précisé n’avoir effectué qu’un seul téléchargement réel, les boucles étant simulées.

Il souligne que le texte n’exclut pas les associations ni les partis politiques. Selon son calcul, environ 1 000 personnes exécutant le même script pourraient théoriquement épuiser en moins de cinq mois le budget de 16 millions d’euros du Parti socialiste.

JetBrains IDEs are now powered by libghostty! This brings huge feature and performance improvements to JB terminals! Based on their own annual reports, that's over 12.5 million active users across all platforms about to get a libghostty-powered terminal. blog.jetbrains.com/platform/2026/…

I'll repeat myself: libghostty is and was always the primary goal of the Ghostty project (I said this in the first public talk I ever gave about Ghostty). The importance and impact of a free, liberally licensed, high quality terminal emulator library that runs anywhere and everywhere dwarfs any single terminal emulator application on its own.

I've estimated Ghostty's (GUI, not libghostty) own users at around a couple million. Overnight, 6x that are using a libghostty-powered terminal. From one integration.

Happy to see this, happy to hear JetBrains had a positive experience, and looking forward to continuing to improve and ship a stable libghostty tag soon!

From the person who slop-ported a screensaver to asm because he didn't know SIMD existed, and then slop-ported his shitty chat to Rust so that it drops connections and only delivers 1% of messages (after 300 commits), and doesn't know it.
Hard to know whether to laugh or cry.

Been running a beta version of Campfire rewritten in Rust today! The code itself is still ugly as sin, and 6x as verbose, but the conversion was free*, and I never had to look at the Rust directly, so this is awesome 🤩 github.com/basecamp/once-…
