Un autre argumentaire en faveur de la voiture électrique

LinkedIn scans for over 200 products that directly compete with its own sales tools, including Apollo, Lusha, and ZoomInfo. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s employer, it can map which companies use which competitor products. It is extracting the customer lists of thousands of software companies from their users’ browsers without anyone’s knowledge.

And more things:

• Linkedin published one API to the European Commission as compliance. These APIs handle approximately 0.07 calls per second. Meanwhile, another internal API called Voyager handles 163 000 calls per second. In Microsoft’s 249-page compliance report to the EU, the word “API” appears 533 times. “Voyager” appears zero times.
• At the same time, LinkedIn expanded its surveillance of the exact tools the regulation was designed to protect. The scan list grew from roughly 461 products in 2024 to over 6,000 by February 2026. The EU told LinkedIn to let third-party tools in. LinkedIn built a surveillance system to find and punish every user of those tools.
• LinkedIn loads an invisible tracking element from HUMAN Security (formerly PerimeterX), an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm, zero pixels wide, hidden off-screen, that sets cookies on your browser without your knowledge. A separate fingerprinting script runs from LinkedIn’s own servers. A third script from Google executes silently on every page load. All of it encrypted. None of it disclosed.

wtf

I first asked how we should think about a mature standard like H.264 in 2026, where many but not all patents have expired. "Maturity changes the economic context, not the legal framework," he said. "The analysis shifts from an emerging innovation platform to a legacy but embedded infrastructure. That shift can affect valuation, but it does not nullify licensing obligations." Courts evaluating FRAND rates still look to comparable licenses and consider the composition, strength, and remaining life of the patents still in force.

It's possible in theory to use the free patents for x264, but it requires in practice a detailed claim-by-claim analysis of the relevant patents and the specific implementation. . Patent claims do not necessarily map neatly to profile labels, so determining whether a subset is truly non-infringing typically requires careful legal and technical analysis.

The baseline / main profiles is however OK and free to use, but the analysis is still required, because patent rights are strictly territorial. The infringement analysis typically turns on three factors: where encoding occurs, where content is transmitted from and where it is received or used.

The FAQ is also very interesting to learn about patents and software cases.

Declare identity to be used by other tools, so the information declaration process can be automated.
A bit sad that AI is the main branding of it.

The vast majority wants to replace US software with europeanuropean alternatives. A majority of the majority thinks it's unrealistic.

They use common logic in Rust. The diagram is definitely interesting.

Dates in RSS conform to RFC 882

Each RSS feed has items. Each feed can contain the entire content, unabridged, or a summary of the content and that it should be read on the site.

Atom is XML-based but is a little bit stricter and more finely specced than RSS.

JSON feed is the newest format discussed around. It has similarly.

RSS can be auto-discovered with the link tag in HTML.

Gotchas:

• use absolute URLs for media in the RSS feed. RSS Readers can be disconnected from the origianl domain.
• escape HTML entities in XML or use CDATA wrappers.
• Web-based RSS readers have CORS rules to follow. Setting an Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * is mandatory header on your XML/JSON files ensures these web-based clients don’t get blocked by security policies.
• the readers have limited display
• validation via the W3C Feed Validation Service or the JSON Feed Validator.

Read the RSS 2.0 Specification, the Introduction to Atom, the RFC 4287: The atom syndication format or the JSON feed version 1.1 Explainer.

1. Share immutable data in threads
2. Mutex while sharing mutable data

An recommended example is provided in the "[Fearless Concurrency]"(https://blog.rust-lang.org/2017/11/14/Fearless-Concurrency-In-Firefox-Quantum.html) post of Mozilla about the success they has in parallelizing the CSS renderer.

Comme les humains sont assez mauvais à créer des logiciels sans bugs, Rust est grâce au compilateur un très bon moyen d'en éviter un certain nombre.

Now I get it why I see links to this website.

The website offers news, technology reviews, and opinion articles, as well as an IRC server and forums. Over 345,000 users have registered for the forums,[6] making over 11,000,000 posts as of June 2016. Two projects initiated by members of the Neowin community include a community game server for Team Fortress 2[7] and a Folding@home team.

Recently, Nextcloud, IONOS, and a bunch of other European tech companies came together to launch a new open source project called "Euro-Office", described as a "sovereign replacement for Microsoft Office with intuitive interface and strong compatibility backed by European open source community. Now, ONLYOFFICE has suspended its 8-year-old partnership with Nextcloud, citing license violations after the Euro-Office coalition forked the ONLYOFFICE repo.

They [...] claimed that ONLYOFFICE discourages contributions, ignores pull requests, and lacks transparency, since commit messages frequently reference internal issue trackers only.

ONLYOFFICE is criticized by its open-source competitor LibreOffice for being fake open source. The software defautls to Microsoft Office formats.
