Die Klatsche für die CDU ist noch grösser als nur sich halbiert zu haben:
2021 gingen 40 Direktmandate an die CDU, 1 AfD. 41 Wahlkreise. Also mit Erststimme fast alles CDU
In den jetzt 8 ausgezählten Wahlkreisen gewinnt in allen AfD die Erststimme. Wer dort von der CDU mit Direktmandat von 2021 wieder angetreten ist, wurde also explizit abgewählt. Und ich denke mal, das zieht sich dann durch alle Wahlkreise

New Ansible Data Validation Module(s) « ipSpace.net blog
A few months ago I described how you could use JSON Schema to validate your automation data models, host/group variable files, or even Ansible inventory file. I had to use a weird toolchain to get it done – either ansible-inventory to build a complete data model from various inventory sources, or yq to convert YAML to JSON… and just for the giggles jsonschema CLI command requires the JSON input to reside in a file, so you have to use a temporary file to get the job done.

My god, we knew it all along. The migration crisis of the last 15 years was engineered by Russia but nobody wanted to say anything. Not Merkel, Obama, Trump, or Rubio.

Making a Game in Janet, Part 3: The problem with macros
So we’re supposed to be writing a game, right? But in order to make progress, we have to fix a bug. And in order to fix the bug, we have to write a test. And in order to write a test, we have to write a test framework. And in order to write a test framework, we have to understand a thing or two about macros. Okay. So, caveat: I am not a lisp person. I didn’t know very much about macros going into all of this – and I still don’t. But when I started writing Judge I knew, like, only the ab…
