Another stupid MacOS 26 Tahoe change making my life harder. In Tahoe, several USB tools I use are broken. They call `system_profiler SPUSBDataType` internally to get USB info. In Tahoe that's gone, replaced by "SPUSBHostDataType", which returns not enough info.
If anyone has any tips on a built-in equivalent, let me know!

Cohere launches an open-source voice model specifically for transcription | TechCrunch
Relatively light at just 2 billion parameters, the model is meant for use with consumer-grade GPUs for those who want to self-host it. It currently supports 14 languages.

The United Nations General Assembly has voted to recognise the enslavement of Africans during the transatlantic slave trade as
"the gravest crime against humanity",
a move advocates hope will pave the way for healing and justice.
The resolution - proposed by Ghana - called for this designation, while also urging UN member states to consider apologising for the slave trade and contributing to a reparations fund.
It does not mention a specific amount of money…

UN votes to recognise enslavement of Africans as 'gravest crime against humanity'
The landmark resolution calls for an apology and contributions to a reparations fund, without specifying an amount.

Just registered for #gisruk, woohoo! Who else is coming to Birmingham?
I'll talk about #bicycle node networks.

If I were to give a prize for the most disruptive workflow change of my life, it will be probably `less` changing home/end key behavior from scrolling to top/bottom (something which I do *all the time*) to disabling line wrapping and scrolling left/right (something I never do).
It's like XKCD#1172, except it's "we've decided spacebar heating is so cool, we've removed all other spacebar functions".
