I did something… unexpected: I booked my discovery flight (4 in fact, a mini #ppl course)

So excited and looking forward to it, and probably pursuing #PPL afterwards. I’m already reading to prepare the theory part.

If you’d tell me just two months ago I’d be doing this I’d have laugh at you really hard. But I’ve decided to pursue whatever I feel I’d like without thinking it too much.

The PHP Foundation wants to publicly share our support for the petition that aims to classify open source contributions as officially recognized volunteer work in Germany. This is a very important distinction for all our open source friends and community members living in Germany, but anyone can sign the petition. It would also be appreciated if you want to spread the word and help us help the organizers reach the 30,000 signatures required to bring it to quorum. 🙏 🐘 🚀

After few months of not training, I’m back to #archery, and rough would be a good description of my technique 😅

So hopefully more practicing in the coming weeks

Positive News: France has announced its plan to ditch Windows & switch to Linux for government desktops. 🥳 🇫🇷

Not only that, but they have also moved 80, 000 National Health Insurance Fund Employees to open source alternatives replacing U.S owned Big Tech platforms like Microsoft Teams & Zoom.

It’s amazing to see the country take action, push for real digital sovereignty, & opt for open source solutions! 👏

Thx a lot to Holly Cummins (@holly_cummins) and Venkat Subramaniam (@venkats) for such inspiring talks today at the 10th Aniversay of Utrecht #JUG

Probably the best recommendation I’ve seen of the current AI scenario:

“Human write bad code
AI was trained on code written by humans
Humans complain Al write bad code
This is called Karma, baby”
