How funny is this? Facebook says the collection of data on Facebook through automated means such as bots is prohibited unless you have express written permission from Facebook. This is after Mark Zuckerberg authorized using pirated books and other media downloaded from Torrents to train its AI. I guess it is okay to steal others' data such as books, pictures, and media without paying anything, but stuff posted on their network is owned by Facebook according to its own ToS https://facebook.com/robots.txt

Time to start a new project and a new daily dev diary 📔

Following an inspiring discussion with Schabi from the #NewPipe team at #FOSDEM, I'm planning to build a YouTube client based on NewPipe for #SailfishOS.

I plan to write about my progress every day ☀️ 🌔

Once again, mostly for my own benefit, but anyone interested to follow along is very welcome!

Rewriting essential Linux packages in Rust https://lwn.net/Articles/1007907/

Gotta say, I wish #bash had local / lexically-scoped functions, rather than having to rely on hacks like:

function widget { function ___widget_parse { ... } ... unset ___widget_parse }

Something like this (which does not currently work) would be lovely:

function widget { local function parse { ... } }
