Taboo in the clean room: workers in #semiconductor fabs, e.g. TSMC in #Taiwan, face high mental pressure. They cannot eat pizza – it’s too similar to the form of an IC waver. 😬
I will continue dropping these insights, here from clinical psychology. Unions are banned, btw., so better med…

I might write a longer blog post if I find time (which, tbh, isn't likely), but... given that I'm seeing a bunch of people who run mailinglists in 2026 having problems, and I think I understand the underlying technicalities quite well, a few notes on running a Mailinglist in 2026:

So scheiße sich auch die Berliner Regierung die ganze Zeit und auch während des Stromausfalls verhielt/verhält: nachdem #Wegner weder als Elektriker Kabel schweißt noch in der lokalen Orga Reperatur-Entscheidungen fällt – nachdem er also die Arbeit zur Wiederherstellung der Stromversorgung nicht durch reine Anwesenheit beschleunigen kann, ist völlig ok, daß er zwischendurch zum Sport geht.
…Worked on some more #Gentoo global #jobserver goodies today.
Firstly, Portage jobserver support patch: #PyTest jobs will also be counted towards total job count.
Again, it's not a perfect solution, but it works reasonably. The plugin still starts -n jobs as specified by the arguments, but it acquired job tokens prior to executing every test, therefore delaying actual testing until tokens are available. It doesn't seem to cause noticeable overhead either.
