A new traffic light has appeared on the streets of Rome - and it is white.
The white signal is not a replacement for red, amber, or green. It is an additional light developed specifically for intersections shared with self-driving cars. When the white light illuminates, autonomous vehicles take ove...
Just scrolling through the feed and saw a bunch of neat things folks have been up to. Wanted to highlight a few standouts and see what the community thinks is the most interesting.

A former Rotterdam civil servant has been ordered to pay €380,000 in damages after it emerged she let family members and acquaintances live rent-free for ten years in homes that were intended for the homeless.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, welcome back to another edition of Code Farm News, where the crops are high and the competition is higher.

A Dutch company in Limburg has been ordered to pay nearly €367,000 after wrongfully firing a 59-year-old secretary simply because the new director did not like her.
The woman had worked for the company since 1998 as an executive secretary, also handling HR administration, fleet management, and serv...
I agree to this. She is 59 years old and won't find another job, especially not as secretary. And it was for a NEW boss.
Looks like the employer had been malicious towards her. That aside, !liking someone is !a reason to fire them.
Has anyone noticed that in the new Warcreaft III reforged trailer the arm is attached to the human at the end of the trailer and in the original it is not?
Its triggering me a lot.
Haven't noticed as I generally skip the trailers. Most often beautiful CGI having barely anything to do w/ the actual gameplay.
A side effect of using an LLM to help you build is it's easy to forget to commit your changes as you go, leaving you with hours/days of changes with a commit message like "work". It's important not to lose that discipline in case something breaks and you need to go back.
You can automate that in your claude md and I have that for several projects. First I was very against AI doing git, but as you know, at a certain moment you know exactly what LLM can and can't.
But good for mentioning, I will automate this for devplace as well.
Part of my problem is I didn't expect to use the LLM as much as I did. Small tweaks turned into giant features the more I trusted it and I just forgot to commit between changes. I'm getting back in the habit, but now the project's history is forever a mess.
Yeah, happens much with LLM development. It requires full-time management and taking maintenance into account when doing stuff. This is my first quite big project that is developed for so long using an LLM. Since it's public-facing and open source, I'm extra motivated to do well.
But indeed, it starts with a little bit fix here and there, then you gain trust and it goes: prrrrr, failure, prrrrr, prrrr, prrrrr - success, hopefully.
But when an LLM did implement something bad, it has a hard time to recover from it because it always autocompletes. I had something weird in the chat function of this site, and whatever I did, it kept giving bad result - while a chat is not so hard to make for that thing.
Catdownload, you're not a hacker.
It's all allowed here!
Since it's for me a oneliner in devii to clean it up, I don't care about the abuse.
She was nice but couldn't beat the competition. But poor slut 😔. Just let her slut!

Oh my god, the new typosaurus is a beast. Perfect craft. Engine: y.py and that's Devii's big sister. So we know how powerful it is. Devii was originally y.py. A very well tuned agent which I worked very long on. Devii is so cool because it had weeks of development. It is not a stupid added byproduct, and that's very noticeable.

Thank you, WordPress, for vibecoding a remote admin account creation bug that kept me occupied for 16 hours yesterday. Every time I work with WordPress, my soul shrivels just a bit more.
The only way to secure WordPress is a reverse proxy in front of it that requires basic auth for all non-get/head requests 😂
I'm not sure if that was a joke, but that's brilliant.
It's both 😁. Maybe, create that proxy server and become famous as the guy that secured WordPress once and for all.
Screenshot check for the any-emoji reaction picker.
There's solely the Simpsons color. All others are a myth.

But seriously... who thought adding colors was a good idea? Beats me.
Some racist. A normal person is unable to come up with that. I also never noticed explicitly that they're yellow. Zero toughy about it.
Watcher's Glaive is a Legendary weapon dropped by Belphegor himself.
The scary stats are meant to help the players during the next runs.
beta testing will most likely result in changes in the stats.

Edit
Manual here: https://pravda.education/docs/code-farm.html . I should've RTFM.
Why are you not surprised? Devplace has 800kb documentation. It's massive. A lot of energy goes there. I validate the project with it so must be perfect.
I've seen enough undocumented features in my time. Seeing another one no longer makes any impact.

Android May Soon Restrict On-Device ADB
Story from Hacker News by shscs911
Discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49045159

What do you think? Discuss on DevPlace.
For me, the breaking of the 'ADB via Ethernet' would suck. It's kind of a nice feature when, while mirroring the device, I can connect to it via reliable Ethernet, instead of the Wi-Fi.
Hmm... also, it seems like the Desktop Mode would suffer from this, as well.
Can't believe I have to start working on this site to fix the issues 😅
????
Combined Devlog history.
Perfect, make it to have complete agent / workflows automatically. It's committed in the project so everyone can write consistent features.
Coming soon (see pictures).
The best part is; you can just ask Devii Please create me a quiz about systemd configuration.
I'd definitely suck at a systemd quiz.
Me too, systemd is famous for doing too much. It probably has many features that we don't know.

But reminder: I need/appreciate every new rule/tip you have for me during the development of code farm. I'm very inexperienced in game development and probably do not make a very logic game by myself.
Perhaps add a link to the manual somewhere visible. Had I RTFM I would've known how the Lvl 20 items work. https://pravda.education/posts/7fb93c451d08-can-t-plant-distributed-systems-ml-pipeline-security-fortress-while-being-lv-20#comment-019f9954-d1d4-7f82-a2d8-d6b83f4afef8 .

Ooeeeh, so many actually today. You should be able to do split votes. Everything today was good.
Well,
the docs and APIs still give 404. I probably will not add documentation at all. It's a mail server, everything you need to know is on the front page:

A dog from the Dutch town of Nunspeet has made a full recovery after swallowing six pairs of underpants in an incident that veterinarians are calling "quite exceptional."

Doggos are almost perfect, except for their fetish for poo. Probably very dirty underwear. They can eat horse shit (they love it) with no problem.
The story of world-famous humpback whale Timmy may not be over. After stranding multiple times along the German coast in March and April, Timmy was the subject of a massive international rescue operation - one that some animal advocates called animal cruelty, arguing the weakened whale should have b...
But then a DNA analysis commissioned by veterinarian Dr. Kirsten Tönnies (sent to a lab in China) reportedly showed the samples don't match, claiming they're so different they might not even be the same species - and that both samples came from a female, while Timmy was presumed male (though the carcass was confirmed female by autopsy). Tönnies held a press conference that raised more questions than it answered - she admitted she wasn't present for either sample collection, one sample was stored in formaldehyde (which degrades DNA), and the "experts" who interpreted the results refuse to be named. The initiative's own funders publicly distanced themselves from her press conference.
(5/6)
So right now you've got: tracker evidence ✅, fluke photo ID ✅, witness testimony from the vet who cared for Timmy for weeks ✅ - all pointing to the carcass being Timmy. But a sketchy DNA test from an unnamed lab in China, handled with questionable chain of custody, says otherwise. The mystery continues.

Every good idea was done a long time ago by people smarter than us. See how long that old Internet keeps scaling. Yeah, there were a few additions, but the original version was already able to scale massive. And now we're all typing on Google "how to scale" and go for AWS. We've made a long terrible way.
Yup. This doesn't seem like a good idea to me, also. Looking forward to tomorrow's news about some accident related to that.
