I've just applied to be an Active member of @Codeberg, which means getting voting rights in the organisation. I really like it, and I've hit a few minor outages recently so I hope my support helps the team out. #freesoftware

Excellent (short) talk by @TodePond about the joys of automating music, including the perfect comment on yesterday's Google Gemini ad using #Strudel: "When you see something like, 'Oh wow, it can do that now', like 'Why? And can it?'"

Didn't see this coming. Zulip's founder reorganizes Zulip so he can work on AI more at Anthropic. Huh.

We use Zulip at the School of Losing Time (https://www.theschooloflosingtime.com/) and I must say that they have a great community building program.

With all this talk about GitHub recently, the most complete perspective comes from Armin Ronacher on what we have gained and lost over the years. https://lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/4/28/before-github/
Before GitHub

Open Source before GitHub was reputation-driven and full of friction

The only thing that could make this manual sexier is spiral binding.

Also I think this is pre-Symbolics, so it's on the right side of history.

I’ve been a big fan of Trevor Paglen’s work since stumbling on “I Could Tell You But Then You Would Have to be Destroyed by Me.” Excited that this new one is also published by Verso.
