And the answer is… Rust.

I liked the original $10 per year pricing because it was simple and easy to justify. The direction feels different after the management change, and I have less confidence now. The new website redesign does not help; the UI feels generic, looks auto-generated, and lacks polish and clarity. If you raise prices, you need to show clear value with better UX and visible improvements. Right now, I do not see enough improvement to justify a higher price. If pricing goes up, I will likely switch.

New comment by derleyici in "Switzerland to vote on capping population at 10M"

derleyici — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 16:52:24 +0000

This just makes no sense, because before all why 10 million? There is no scientific or proven reason for this number by the proposing party. The SVP position paper is 38 pages of cherry-picked stats but nowhere do they demonstrate why 10 million is the breaking point rather than 9.5 or 11. It is a round number chosen for a slogan.

The Federal Council's official message to Parliament dismantles the whole thing. Real GDP per capita grew 0.82 percent annually between 2002 and 2022, comparable to Norway, Austria, and Denmark. EU and EFTA nationals are net contributors to Swiss social insurance, paying significantly more into AVS, AI, and APG than they receive back.

The SVP frames asylum seekers as the most urgent part of the problem, but recognized refugees make up about 1 percent of total residents. Meanwhile 64 percent of net migration in 2024 came from EU and EFTA countries, overwhelmingly people filling jobs. This is not an asylum crisis, it is labor migration the Swiss economy actively demands.

The initiative would likely require denouncing the ECHR, the Geneva Refugee Convention, and other human rights treaties to hit an arbitrary number. The guillotine clause means killing free movement also kills Schengen and Dublin. And the Federal Council already negotiated a safeguard clause with the EU that allows limiting immigration in justified cases without blowing up the entire bilateral relationship. That is a scalpel.

This initiative is a sledgehammer aimed at a number someone picked because it fits on a poster.

Sorry, not sorry, but facts don't care about feelings.

Fair point. Calling the concept inherently flawed is doing a lot of work to excuse 30 years of implementation bugs.

i wouldn't normally reply to drive-by corrections, but this is wrong.

it's the GnuPG blog on gnupg.org with multiple authors.

this is a post by Werner Koch, not his blog.

Apple's Spatial Scene in the Photos app shows similar behavior, turning a single photo into a small 3D scene that you can view by tilting the phone. Demo here: https://files.catbox.moe/93w7rw.mov

It turns a single photo into a rough 3D scene so you can slightly move the camera and see new, realistic views. "Photorealistic" means it preserves real textures and lighting instead of a flat depth effect. Similar behavior can be seen with Apple's Spatial Scene feature in the Photos app: https://files.catbox.moe/93w7rw.mov

FYI, you don't even need browser translation. The piece already has an English version available. There's a language toggle in the navigation bar, and the English version is here: https://type.today/en/journal/spaces

Also, liked the article!

No, they must then state that it is source-available, not open source.

Fair point, but the article praises Windows 11 for "cohesion" while the right-click menu literally has two different visual styles, and many system apps still use old UI. Even judging purely on aesthetics, that's inconsistent.

8 for Windows 11? An OS that includes ads in the Start menu, made with React. I'm not even mentioning right-click, which has basically two views: you open it and see some uselessly chosen tools, and you still need to open the old version (with the old design, breaking design consistency) to access actually useful things. Viva Windows XP!

Speaking to the second point, it's clear that some folks will avoid quitting the terminal at all costs. I could very well be one of them. :-D
