Moved two of my side projects from GitHub to Codeberg, check them out on their new home:

https://codeberg.org/mmllr/GPXKit
https://codeberg.org/mmllr/neotest-swift-testing

Codeberg works just like Github, and you can even use your Github account to log in there, but it is operated like a user-owned cooperative with a democratic governance model. Transition was easy, took over history along with issues, PRs etc.

Wenn Dezentralisierung von einer Wirtschaftsministerin, die sich eher Konzernen als Bevölkerung und Gemeinwesen verpflichtet fühlt, nicht (mehr) gewollt ist, darf eine Studie, die deren Vorteile, die hauptsächlich Regionen und Gemeinden zugute kommen anstatt Großkonzernen, aufzeigt, natürlich nicht bekannt werden.

Weshalb sie gerade umso bekannter gemacht werden sollte.

The more I code, the more I gravitate towards #Neovim, as opposed to Zed, Cursor, Windsurf and the like. I'll admit the learning curve was steep, but as the operators and motions become second nature, there are many things to like:
- highly customizable with package managers (like lazy.nvim), plugins (like Neo-tree.nvim) and a custom config
- fast startup/performance
- free/libre and open source
It's also a boon that I never have to leave my terminal. 🤓 Check it out at https://neovim.io.

Anlässlich des #DiDay dürften hier einige neue Menschen dazustoßen. Daher bitte ich Euch inständig: Zeigt Euch von Eurer absoluten Schokoladenseite. Die Person verwechselt Mastodon & Fediverse? CMon, lasst bitte 5 gerade sein und schreibt keine wütende Abhandlung. Sie wissen es nicht besser und meinen es nur gut. Die Person ist immer noch bei WhatsApp? So what: Ein Schritt nach dem anderen. Druck & Shaming für alle, die nicht 100% geben hat uns noch nie weiter gebracht. Wir schaffen das!

Using a free software stack, you could be an effective developer with a relatively low budget. A cheap or used laptop and an internet subscription.

LLM coding is changing that too. You either need a very powerful and expensive machine to run a local model, or (currently more likely) an LLM subscription. We are lead to believe you have to pay a monthly fee to be an effective developer.

The prospect of your output as a developer being tied to a proprietary service seems risky at best.

I’m officially done with takes on AI beginning “Ethical concerns aside…”.

No! Stop right there.

Ethical concerns front and center. First thing. Let’s get this out of the way and then see if thre is anything left worth talking about.

Ethics is the formalisation of how we are treating one another as human beings and how we relate to the world around us.

It is *impossible* to put ethics aside.

What you mean is “I don’t want to apologise for my greed and selfishness.”

Say that first.
