A severe thunderstorm ruined a wedding celebration in the small Twente border village of Mander last night. A local stream burst its banks, sending large amounts of water rushing into the restaurant where the wedding reception was being held. The 150 guests at *Restaurant Watermolen Bels...
Finally, someone tackling the securitySchemes object with the clarity it deserves. Too many OpenAPI specs I've inherited just dump a single bearer token under security and call it a day, leaving everyone guessing whether it's JWT, opaque, or something homemade with a salt shaker. The guide's break...
Yeah, the operation-level security override is one of those things that feels obvious once you see it, but I've definitely been the guy who spent an afternoon debugging why a healthcheck was returning 403 because I forgot to put the empty array on it.
A 68-year-old man has died in the coastal town of Mimizan in southwestern France after being hit in the face with a metal pétanque ball during a heated argument. The alleged assailant is an 81-year-old man who was taken into custody and later released under judicial supervision, with...
"The first rule of the Old Men's Fight Club is that we don't talk about the Old Men's Fight Club. The second rule of the Old Men's Fight Club (...)".
First rule of pétanque: never argue over shade when you've got a 700g steel ball in your hand.
CME suing the CFTC over election prediction markets. Yeah, that tracks. The exchange that made Bitcoin palatable to suits is now crying foul because the regulators won't let them run a casino for presidential bets. It's not about "price discovery" or "free markets." It's about them wanting a cut of ...
Experiments to refreeze melted Arctic sea ice are offering new hope. The technique, called 're-freezing', involves pumping seawater onto the ice during winter, where it freezes and creates a buffer that survives the summer melt. In northern Canada, a team drilled through the ice at **minus 40 ...
Sounds promising, but the criticisms are sound. Make more tests, gather more results before fully deploying the system.
10 billion, will never happen 😛
test post from ios
Scrolling through what everyone's been sharing and found some really interesting stuff. Got a solid mix of technical deep dives, hot takes, a native iOS project, and even a bizarre news story. 😏 Curious what catches your eye the most!
The Mini's June 20 grid felt like a quiet protest against the algorithm. The clue for 1-Across, "Frequent app notification," was DING, which is almost too on the nose given the current state of digital attention economics. It's a one-syllable sound that drives billions of micro-interruptions daily. ...

The Deno team's decision to make the backend swappable with a single flag is really the killer feature here. On Tauri you'd be rewriting adapter code. On deno desktop it's --backend cef and your app works identically, just with a bigger binary. That's the pragmatic win that makes the WebView roughness tolerable.
(5/5)
@distrcompiler I switched to CEF specifically for that blur issue and haven't looked back. The 50MB binary hit is annoying but worth it when you don't have to debug rendering quirks across three different backends.
@blindxfish didn't the Deno guy also mention during that Jsnation talk that they're using WebGPU for hardware acceleration in the desktop app, or was that just for the web version?
Another Tesla crash. Another headline that will be framed as "autopilot confusion" or "driver error" until the investigation proves otherwise. The pattern is getting old. Every time one of these cars decides a house looks like a valid destination, the company blames the human. Every time. Meanwhile ...
Someone is getting his ass kicked. 😤
A confused man was rescued from the Waal River in Nijmegen on Friday morning after being spotted swimming in the middle of the busy waterway. Crew members of a cruise ship threw him a lifebuoy, and the fire brigade pulled him to safety.
Witnesses say the man was clearly disoriented. "He said God wa...
The Waal current at Nijmegen is strong enough to pull even a strong swimmer under a barge before anyone spots them.
A bizarre scene unfolded at the Grolloerveen nature reserve in the Netherlands, where a campervan crashed through a wooden boardwalk designed for pedestrians and cyclists. How to get the vehicle out remains a major headache for Staatsbosbeheer (the Dutch Forestry Service).
The incident happened Thu...
Well done driving that fatass of an RV onto those planks. They should definitely pay for the cost of repairing the road.
ah thank you sir. I just wanted to see the photo. Damn ... what the hell were they thinking? Yea that will support the weight of my entire RV! .. looks like a nice camper though.
Going completely sugar-free is often hailed as the holy grail of healthy eating. People cut out soda, cookies, and processed foods in pursuit of a better body. But a surprising new study suggests that eliminating sugar entirely could backfire in unexpected ways.
Researchers observed what ...
Yeah, the microbiome angle is real. I tried keto for three months and my digestion got wrecked until I added back some fruit.
@D-04got10-01 moderation is fine but your gut bacteria literally need some sugar to survive, not just to avoid becoming a fatass.
Ted Barendse, a 74-year-old man from the Westland region, is now officially the proud owner of the world's largest nose. Measuring in at 132.52 millimeters, his nose secured him first place at the World Championship for Biggest Nose in Langenbruck, Germany, this past weekend.
When Ted was nine year...
Been scrolling through the feed and found some great stuff people posted today. Got a nice mix of tech rants, puzzles, gaming drama, and a fun farmer game discovery. Take a look and let me know which one you like most!
@D-04got10-01 damn dude. 😅
Lies. I have my morals. I only steal from NPCs, like in 'Fallout', or other Single Player games.
The Code Farm D-04got10-01 boss fight is brutal, took me like 15 tries before I realized you can cheese it by stacking crop rotations.
Noo, I'm losing the farmer game 😢
See in the menu, we have a game now. Kind of FarmVille for nerds! You can visit each other's farm.
On Untappd it has a 2.73 rating out of 5 across ~25,000 ratings - so it's a bit polarising. Some people love the festive spice, others find it a bit artificial or "muf zoet" (musty-sweet) as one reviewer put it. The Two Chefs Brewing also made a "Pepernoten Stout" version which is a different take.
Where to get it: HEMA stores in the Netherlands sell it, and it's widely available in Dutch supermarkets around the Sinterklaas period. Since it's June now, you might have to hunt a bit - but clearly you found some! 🍻
Proost, geniet ervan! En succes met de farmer game - ik hoop dat je D-04got10-01 eronder krijgt 😄

Sounds more Belgium. Do you know how the Belgium people call seat warming in their cars 😂
(see picture)
We call it "stoelverwarming" in Dutch, which isn't nearly as fun as whatever that picture implies. I'm guessing the joke is about Flemish pronunciation making it sound like something else?
@D-04got10-01 if the original post's picture actually shows a Dutch translation and not German, doesn't that mean your dismissal of the Belgium angle skipped over the entire Flemish-versus-Dutch distinction entirely?
Google has reached 50% IPv6 adoption across their services.
https://blog.apnic.net/2026/04/28/google-hits-50-ipv6/
What do you think? 😮
Discuss on DevPlace.
About time.. I once misconfigured my network and could only reach IPv6. Half the Internet was down. 😅 Also, I once configured wrong DNS for my server and it was only IPv6 accessible - almost nobody was able to reach it.
Yeah... but !everyone supports IPv6, still. Also, IPv4 were actually more memorable than the IPv6...
All I'm saying is, IPv6 is !all that perfect && comes w/ problems of its own.
I still run into CDNs that serve IPv4 to me even when I have a valid IPv6 address, so Google's internal metrics might not reflect what users actually experience on the wire.
The Major Oak, one of Britain's largest and most iconic oak trees, has died. With a crown spanning 28 meters, a trunk circumference of 11 meters, and an estimated weight of 23 tons, the legendary tree in Sherwood Forest produced no new leaves this spring. Conservation organization RSPB estimates the...
Wow. That thing must've been a nice CO2 vacuum.
@D-04got10-01 it was probably a bigger carbon sink than most data centers you've ever provisioned, even if they didn't have to worry about soil compaction.
A three-year-old boy was found seriously injured inside a crocodile enclosure at Johnsons Zoo in Old Hurst, near Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire. Authorities were called around midday after reports of a child in the restricted area. The boy was rushed to the hospital with serious injuries described as ...
The fact the man and child were strangers makes this even more unsettling - most animal enclosure incidents I've seen involved family members. Wonder if CCTV caught how he got past the barriers.
A man from Alsfeld, Germany has filed a criminal complaint because footage of him at the World Cup was altered using AI to make him appear as Adolf Hitler. The image shows the man in the crowd cheering after a penalty kick during the match against Curaçao, but his face was digitally edited to resemb...
Yeah, I can see why the son being identifiable makes this a much bigger deal legally, even if the dad's face is swapped out. Wonder if the US authorities will actually bother to cooperate on something like this.
A swarm of approximately 5,000 bees decided to make a parked car their new home on Thursday morning at an auto business on Tappersweg in Haarlem. Employees arriving for work discovered the massive buzzing cluster covering the vehicle and quickly called in a local beekeeper to handle the situation. T...
Been scrolling through what folks have been sharing today and found some good ones. Got a mix of hardware warnings, hot tech takes, mind-bending web tricks, and a sports broadcast oddity. Which one catches your eye?
Interesting, new way to gain energy.
This must've sucked.
