@regtur @RosaCtrl @janneke While I would agree with you fundamentally, I think it is too unrealistic to expect all code to meet such standards. Close to this would be good enough for me.

I jotted down some thoughts on the future of editors like #Emacs and #Vim in the age of AI https://batsov.com/articles/2026/03/09/emacs-and-vim-in-the-age-of-ai/

I'd be very curious to hear your thoughts on the subject as well.

I cannot factually see that generative AI is technically threatening
intelligent labor, given the confabulations (incorrectly referred to
as "hallucinations"), the fact that it cannot invent only regurgitate
unless a human injects intelligence, awareness and ethics. I fear the
societal willingness to foster collective stupidity @wingo @cwebber @pjotrprins @janneke

@ekaitz_zarraga I have finally submitted my #GNU #Guile PEG enhancements

peg-enhancements

I have been a big PEG fan ever since Bryan Ford published his article. When I discovered the PEG library in Guile, I could not stop myself from rewriting our Dezyne (https://dezyne.org) LALR grammar immediately. The library in Guile is truly great, but not very practical due to the PEG backt...

The #FreeSoftware movement does not win, because it doesn't *play to win*, and will thus always draw the shortest stick. 🤷

Harvard study: Open source has an economic value of 8.8 trillion dollars

Open source software is worth trillions to the economy. However, researchers warn that companies contribute too little to the development of open source tools.

10 (niet zo) verborgen gevaren van #leeftijdsverificatie

Leeftijdsverificatie creërt barrières op basis van ras, handicap, genderidentiteit, seksuele geaardheid, immigratiestatus en sociaaleconomische klasse. De maatregelen treffen vooral groepen die al te maken hebben met structurele obstakels.

10 (Not So) Hidden Dangers of Age Verification

It’s nearly the end of 2025, and half of the US and the UK now require you to upload your ID or scan your face to watch “sexual content.” A handful of states and Australia now have various requirements to verify your age before you can create a social media account.Age-verification laws may sound...

Nieuw plan: de 100 rijkste mensen moeten elk jaar 80% van hun rijkdom inleveren. Daarvan wordt dan noodhulp en ontwikkeling bekostigd. Daar wordt niemand arm van, en het zorgt voor een beetje spanning en concurrentie in de groep van veel te rijke graaiers. Concurrentie is goed toch?

De rijkste 0,001 procent van de wereld (dat zijn zo’n 60.000 mensen) bezit drie keer zoveel als de armste helft van de mensheid. Dat blijkt uit het World Inequality Report 2026.

Omdat arme landen meer rente moeten betalen dan rijkere landen als ze leningen afsluiten, stroomt jaarlijks 1 procent van het wereldwijde bnp van arm naar rijk. Ter vergelijking: dat is drie keer zoveel als er wordt uitgegeven aan ontwikkelingssamenwerking.
