🤔 I feel open source has turned into two worlds • Chris Siebenmann

｢ Corporate use of open source software is things like corporations deciding to make libxml2 a security sensitive, load bearing part of their products. Yes, the license allows them to do that and allows them to not support libxml2, but I feel that it's qualitatively different that the personal cooperative sphere of open source, and as a result the social rules are different ｣

There seems to be a lot of drama going on with Xorg Xserver these days. Lots of accusations, and now there is a fork. Xlibre is a fork of the Xorg Xserver. Here is the link https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver?tab=readme-ov-file#xlibre-xserver

To be honest, I've no idea what is going on. So I'm asking here if someone could give a balanced and honest view. TIA.

Well done. Let us get free from Microsoft spyware OS. They are not trustworthy vendors, and all taxpayers' money should go to fund open-source apps/software and not to Bill Gates' fortune.

t-strings are a new feature which is coming in Python 3.14. If you're wondering why we need t-strings when f-strings already exist, check out this video by @tonybaloney He explained how t-strings make it easier to create reusable templates and add custom logic or sanitisation, which makes string formatting more powerful and secure, with a clear and practical example.
