Write your wiki pages in Markdown!

We've released Native Markdown, a new #OpenSource #MediaWiki extension. The entire page is stored as Markdown rather than embedded within wikitext via a tag.

You get functioning links, categories, search, table of contents, and even templates and parser functions.

Add it to existing wikis without breaking anything: existing pages stay wikitext, and new pages default to #Markdown.

Some time ago, I started looking for a Braille display to help implement Braille display support in #FreeBSD

Update: I managed to get a used one from the United States, and it should arrive by the end of the month.

If your country has websites that sell used items, I'd really appreciate it if you could keep an eye out for affordable Braille displays and let me know if you find any. Thank you!

No week goes by where I'm not wondering why the Linux Foundation @lfeurope still hasn't responded to this: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e12330b9-c29e-45ca-9375-9e3d13426d85@horse64.org/T/

You'd think that might be a rather serious concern...?

Or does nobody care about longevity of the kernel anymore? It does make me wonder.

For the sake of the argument, lets presume #agentic_development is the future, will replace humans writing code (almost) entirely.

When we then consider that currently tokens are highly subsidized by investors. Literally trillions a year.

And we see that even with that subsidy, prices are increasing rapidly. But that eventually, these subsidies will be removed and costs will be shifted to the people using the AI.

Then we can only conclude that in future, #softwaredevelopment becomes something for the wealthy only.

A few years ago, everyone with access to a computer and the will to learn, could write the Next Killer App, or get hired to write software. From girls living in a country where $100/month is a solid income, to guys living in the basement of their mom in a country where €2000/month is on the low end. Especially with #opensource goving free access to a solid foundation for everyone, worldwide.

But with the costs of unsubsidized agentic software development, that division will make software development much less accessible to people. When the daily bill for tokens is higher than the common monthly income in your country, it's inaccessible.

We often hear the story that now everyone can "make" software, with AI. Because the skills to write software are no longer a requirement. A barrier removed.
But the barrier isn't removed, it's replaced with a barrier of wealth. A barrier that anyone with a brain and will, could overcome, replaced by a barrier that is set by society and impossible to overcome for a vast majority of the people worldwide.

"Keno from Heise Ct says that manual programming will become as exotic as writing letters with a quill pen"

Yet the quill pen evolved into the ballpoint pen, still a widely used implement today, despite computers existing.
But more to the point, there is an epidemic of young Westerners who cannot read and write properly, because they've been brought up entirely with computers and not a pen.
See, vibe coding might feel productive today amongst people who understand the technology it is using. But what happens when the next generation of coders only really know how to vibe code? Who have very little understanding of how things actually work.
(The thing they call) "AI" is not capable of abstract thought, and never will be, because it is not actually intelligent. Yes, it is the same as autocomplete in an IDE, or a text messaging app on your phone - and that's what people are allowing themselves to become passive to?
New technologies are developed out of problem solving and human curiosity. An "AI" can only work with what already exists, just mashing it together.
Obviously, the more vibe coding becomes the norm, the more stifled technological progress becomes. Just regurgitating the same things over and over, and never making any real advancements, or finding solutions to real world problems anymore.
And when all of this technology eventually collapses in on itself. People will be there using a trusty pen on paper again. That obsolete thing.
I'm sorry that people have become so distracted by shiny things that they have forgotten their human roots. Though, a future regret I'm sure.

"... China now restricting access to certain open source models."

#MaximilianNegele, 2026

If all the points in the OSD (Open Source Definition) are being followed, access can't be restricted. So if it can be restricted, it's not Open Source, by definition.

At least, that was the case, until Stefano Maffulli, as director of OSI, led the charge on drafting a new definition for "Open Source AI", by watering down the OSD until some MOLE training fit into it. *sigh*
