leonheld··on Sao Paulo: A city with no outdoor advertisements (2013)
lol, yes, it was. As I plunged my fingers into the keyboard I was reminded of how much I hate that billboard, so much hate it couldn't even be typed out.

I live here and oh God I fucking that that billboard so much. It fills me with pure rage.
leonheld··on Hunting for Nginx alias traversals in the wild
btw, as a non-native, I also cannot understand why some native speakers confuse the use of "you're, your" or "there, their" or even "through, tough". To me they sound completely different!

>I'm just curious about the provenance of this mistake

Because of English pronunciation (pronounciation? :-P). English is extremely irregular, there are a thousand of footguns in the language - both spoken and written -, so as non-native speakers we tend to make small mistakes that stick to our brains like glue, and it's very hard to get rid of (rid off? :-P).

For me it kinda makes sense to say "dwelve" because it reminds me of "dwarfs" (dwarves? :-P) that live underground!

leonheld··on Keeping Open Source Open
And why does it matter, anyway? The GPL exists for a reason and RedHat knew what they were getting themselves into.

It's just so stupid people are gonna have to jump silly hoops to get the source code.

popOS as a server operating system? That doesn't make much sense.
leonheld··on Milk-V Mars: RISC-V credit card size SBC
We (as an industry) do produce some smaller SoMs. Long are gone the days of gigantic EVKs with a thousand interfaces, but it's costly compared to RPi, because of scale and all the certifications we make our hardware go through.

> I wish there are some i.MX SBC

You can buy a Toradex, Variscite or PHYTEC module and pop a binary distro like Debian in there very easily.

Disclosure: I work for one of the companies above.

leonheld··on Bugs – opinionated Jira CLI for those of us who hate Jira
``` # Shitty argument parsing # I should use getopts but I'm lazy ```

lol, I love it.

leonheld··on Apple Vision Pro: The MVP for AR
I always say Apple is the best embedded software company in the world and people look at me like I'm insane. They deeply care about software and it shows (even if sometimes we don't agree with their vision). Companies tend to get too hung up on hardware and end up forgetting the software, in my opinion.
