This seems quite serious, I'll definitely be reading the CVE once it's published. Luckily, I noticed the github notification of the release after only a couple of hours.

edit: I read the advisory and it wasn't too bad in terms of attacker access:

Impact
An attacker can use any non-existent username to bypass the authentication system and gain access to various read-only data in Navidrome, such as user playlists. However, any attempt to modify data fails due to insufficient permissions, limiting the impact to unauthorized viewing of information.

I assume these numbers change you for the pleasure of being on hold - wouldn't it be illegal to artificially add 15 minutes of wasted time onto the bill?

This while thing feels like a Onion article.

Turbo Pascal was my first real programming language, and Delphi was pretty pleasant to use for GUI programs as I recall.

I'd never even heard of Lazarus, I might have to try it for a nostalgia trip.

Lots of the industrial programming languages are very different to "normal"/"proper" programming languages, and I can see them being localised.

For example, this is (PLC programming language) Ladder Logic code:

Looks cool, but I see that this is a Kickstarter, and their previous projects seem to have lots of complaints. On this past performance, you should expect your stuff to be delivered quite late and with bad communications, but you will eventually get what you paid for.

It's already 4x its goal, so I think I'll just wait until it appears on the SB Components site.

I don't see a website linked, you might want to edit that in to your post.

Edit: found it: https://clockwooork.github.io/

It works great and the config is simple. It doesn't handle triggering things from those keypresses, but you've probably already got something running that does that.

I happily use Helix for Rust, etc projects, and as a general editor. I switch back to VSCode for TypeScript/Svelte projects because the plugins make it more productive for me. I do miss the editing experience and need to check if there's a VSCode plugin that lets me not confuse my muscle memory.

Helix was the thing that finally made me remap my caps lock key to esc.

I killed my MS Natural Ergonomic 4000 by fumbling half a cup of tea into it. I miss having the scroll/zoom in the centre, since I had to replace with the new Microsoft LXM-00004 model (with the stupid Office button) and that's just got dead space there. Some customisable buttons would be perfect.

I've seen some ergonomic mechanical custom setups, but I've never been brave enough to start down that rabbit hole.

I just had mine arrive yesterday!

I have one of these
macro keyboard with 12 keys and three knobs

I'm using ch57x-keyboard-tool to configure it, because I don't fancy running some random closed-source Chinese code (the manual links to a file on Google Drive). It also means I can move over my config when I switch to Linux.

I have two keys for switching between headphones and speakers, and some set up for shortcuts I forget (like ctrl-shift-e for the network monitor in Firefox). One key types "hello" just because I can.

I've got the large knob controlling volume, and I can click it to toggle mute. The other two are currently set to scroll, but I don't need that as my mouse has better ergonomics for scrolling.

I still have plenty of unused keys and it's got three layers so I won't be running out in the foreseeable future.

The Phoronix comments are notoriously toxic - I went to the article mostly to witness the incoherent rage in the comments and wasn't too disappointed.

I disagree, they have it working on the nRF52840 (which is new and supports new things like NFC and Thread/Zigbee). This means people can start developing features against that chipset.

Hardware doesn't mean "production-ready model".
