FFmpeg is moving to Rust 🦀
Our use of C and Assembly in FFmpeg has been an unacceptable violation of safety.
FFmpeg will be running 10x slower - but we're doing it for your safety.
All your videos will appear green - safety first, working software later.

يطرح هذا المقال مفهوم «تدجين المستخدم» كاحتكار تقني يحوّل المستخدم من مستقل إلى تابع، عبر الاعتماد الكامل على المنصة، فقدان التحكم أو الهجرة، ثم استغلال هذا الوضع، كما حدث مع واتساب بدافع مصالح المستثمرين:

Jordan opened its economy to the US, which became its top export market. Now it’s punished with steep tariffs. The payoff? Minimal gains for America, real harm to a key ally, and growing pressure for Jordan to look for other trade partners:
If you're the king of Jordan, what options do you have to escape Trump's not-at-all-reciprocal tariffs? Maybe you can buy every Jordanian a Chevy Tahoe. I wrote up some longer thoughts on a chaotic policy that seems tailor-made to harm American interests. unsettledsources.blog/p/ever…

There are so many great reasons to be on Signal.
Now including the opportunity for the vice president of the United States of America to randomly add you to a group chat for coordination of sensitive military operations.
Don’t sleep on this opportunity…

نحن في لحظة حرجة: من ينقّحون نظم الذكاء الاصطناعي المترجِمة الآن هم من سيعينون ملامح اللغة العربية في المجال العام لسنوات طويلة قادمة. المشكل أن كثيرين منهم اكتسبوا لغتهم من ترجمات آلية رثّة أو من كتابات تحاكيها، كما نرى في أخبار الإنترنت وبرامج التلفزيون وحتّى كتب الأطفال.

In 1985, I asked my brother David (age 15) to be the rotoscope model for my new game, Prince of Persia.
38 years later, I've made him a (present day) cartoon character in my new graphic novel memoir REPLAY.
