Software! Gemaakt in Nederland! Op eigen computers!

Good article with lots of quotable quotes. Here’s one:

“Lines of code, number of [pull requests], these are liabilities. These are not measures of engineering excellence.”

That’s a big “well duh” for anyone who’s been in the thick of the software engineering process for more than 15 seconds — but a whole lot of folks are about to learn this the hard way, as the article lays out.

just had to put this into some words..

Which email provider handles your municipality's official communications?

We built mxmap.nl to make that visible, all Dutch municipalities, mapped by email provider based on public DNS records.
Inspired by the Swiss original mxmap.ch by David Huser. We adapted it for the Netherlands. All credit for the concept goes to him.

Under the CLOUD Act, provider location matters. The map makes the current reality clear.

> Remember: The dumbest person you know is being told 'you are absolutely right' by a LLM right now.

Don't use LLM generated code in your projects yet! If for no other reason than that the legal case law is NOT ESTABLISHED YET.

I know there was the "copyright laundering" thing that went around a lot, but we actually don't know.

You'll see commenters everywhere on the internet say that "the US Supreme Court ruled that AI generated output is in the public domain". That's misinfo: they *declined to take on* a case from a lower court coming to that conclusion. The US Supreme Court hasn't yet ruled.

And this hasn't shaken out in an international setting yet either.

You may be surprised to hear: I actually think it's more dangerous and empowers centralized AI companies even more if it *isn't* the case that AI output is in the public domain (I'll follow up about that), but regardless, right now we just don't know.

But despite that, I'm STILL saying that you're putting yourself in legally dubious territory right now if you include LLM generated code, for now. We don't know yet.
