The 2026 edition of “I Love Free Software Day” demonstrated, once again, the strength and gratitude of our Free Software community. ❣️❣️❣️
22 celebrations in 12 European countries highlighted the invaluable work of Free Software maintainers as well as bringing people together to thank everyone who contributes to Free Software. Appreciation also extended across the Fediverse, alongside other surprises. 🚀🚀🚀
“I then started in an empty repository with no access to the old source tree, and explicitly instructed Claude not to base anything on LGPL/GPL-licensed code.”
idk, it’s just baffling to me that a professional software developer who’s been maintaining a project for over a decade can so fundamentally misunderstand what LLMs do
@openssf how can I enroll to your newsletter? When I try it just gets me to the bottom of your webpage where there is no action to follow up on
Love your work but I want the newsletter :(
If you're on LinkedIn and are thinking about verifying your account with them, maybe read this first. It walks through LinkedIn's privacy disclosure to identify 17 companies that may receive and process the data you submit, including name, passport photo, selfie, facial geometry, NFC data chip, national ID #, DoB, email, phone number, address, IP address, device type, MAC address, language, geolocation etc. Unsurprisingly, it seems the biggest recipients are US-based AI companies.

Poland has officially withdrawn today from the Ottawa's Treaty, meaning we can now deploy, stockpile and produce land mines
The baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia) have withdrawn from the treaty two months ago
Dziś weszło w życie wypowiedzenie przez Polskę tzw. Konwencji Ottawskiej, traktatu zakazującego użycia, produkcji, składowania i przekazywania min przeciwpiechotnych. Przepisy tego międzynarodowego dokumentu przestają obowiązywać po tym, jak pół roku temu polski rząd zdecydował o wyjściu z tej umowy.
It is time for an #introduction !

@peertube został oficjalnie przetłumaczony w pełni na język polski.
To tak, żeby Raków mógł z dumą prezentować v.rakow.pl. I inni.
Weather update: te 100% może wydawać się trochę przekłamane, bo zacząłem w kodzie szukać fragmentów interfejsu PeerTube'a, które nie zostały oznaczone jako możliwe do przetłumaczenia – i znalazłem już dwa: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/7449
This is not new behaviour for him. I remember when he was first trying to launder his image by setting up the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. They were 'giving' large quantities of drugs to poor countries. Just one condition: if you want to receive them, you have to sign a treaty respecting US IP laws. This was justified as 'the pharma companies won't let us give you the drugs if you can set up competing manufacturing chains' but the real reason was that it allowed Microsoft to enforce Windows and Office copyrights and strangled nascent software industries in these countries. And it was a great sales tactic, because if you refuse then you have to explain to your population why you're allowing tens of thousands of them to die.
If he'd actually cared, he'd have used the fact that they didn't have these IP treaties signed to set up factories that manufactured generic versions of these drugs in some of the affected countries. This could have helped to bootstrap pharmaceutical in some of them. But the main goal was to prevent competition from industrialising countries, saving lives was just leverage.
