In Japan, near Hiroshima is a sacred island called Miyajima. The island is covered with Temples and Shrines. One of those is the Henjo Cave at the Daishon Temple Complex. The ceiling of the cave is covered with lanterns. The cave is very peaceful and quiet. We were the only ones there at the time, which may have contributed to the silence. I was thankful because I did not want to disturb anyone with me holding my camera up in the air to take this image. The cave is kind of hard to find. If you don't know to look for it, you would probably walk right past it, its hidden under another structure. If you are ever on the island, be sure to seek this place out. Its off the beaten path a bit, but the whole complex is amazing and well worth the trip.

The Zig Software Foundation has quit GitHub after years of unresolved GitHub Actions bugs -- including a "safe_sleep" script that could spin forever and cripple CI runners. Zig leadership puts the blame on Microsoft's growing AI-first priorities and declining engineering quality. Other open-source developers are voicing similar frustrations. The Register reports: The drama began in April 2025 when GitHub user AlekseiNikiforovIBM started a thread titled "safe_sleep.sh rarely hangs indefinitely." GitHub addressed the problem in August, but didn't reveal that in the thread, which remained open until Monday. That timing appears notable. Last week, Andrew Kelly, president and lead developer of the Zig Software Foundation, announced that the Zig project is moving to Codeberg, a non-profit git hosting service, because GitHub no longer demonstrates commitment to engineering excellence.

One piece of evidence he offered for that assessment was the "safe_sleep.sh rarely hangs indefinitely" thread. "Most importantly, Actions has inexcusable bugs while being completely neglected," Kelly wrote. "After the CEO of GitHub said to 'embrace AI or get out', it seems the lackeys at Microsoft took the hint, because GitHub Actions started 'vibe-scheduling' -- choosing jobs to run seemingly at random. Combined with other bugs and inability to manually intervene, this causes our CI system to get so backed up that not even master branch commits get checked."

Je hebt oude koeien uit de sloot halen en je hebt oude vliegtuigwrakken uit de Indische Oceaan halen. Maleisië looft 80 miljoen dollar uit voor een nieuwe zoektocht naar Malaysia Airlines vlucht MH370, die al meer dan 11 jaar foetsie is en waarvan wij toen ook al meermaals schreven dat ze, hoe tragisch ook, nooit gevonden zal worden. Lang verhaal kort: vliegtuig verdween boven grote plas water, verhouding vliegtuig tot plas water is ongeveer die van Mosterds kleine Mosterd ten opzichte van de totale oppervlakte van Nederland, vliegtuig en 239 inzittenden helaas voorgoed verdwenen. Toch, de Maleisiërs geloven erin en wie zijn wij om dat geloof te verpesten. We zijn verdomme niet het Sinterklaasjournaal. De nieuwe zoekactie wordt uitgevoerd door het Amerikaanse Ocean Infinity maar wij zijn maar wat bereid een handje te helpen, zeker niet voor 80 miljoen dollar. Vandaar: ZOEK MEE! 

Signalement: Vliegtuig, best groot. Mogelijk in tienduizend stukjes op de zeebodem. Niet zelf benaderen zonder zuurstoftank en stevige onderzeeër. Mail ons en wij regelen het wel met die 80 miljoen.
