It usually only takes 1 project for an open source maintainer to learn they need to set boundaries. Unfortunately, that 1 project often becomes load bearing infrastructure before we've even realized what's happened, putting everyone in quite a predicament. @www.jvt.me.web.brid.gy #opensource

The open source world was designed for a world where there was more friction for doing things. With LLMs a lot of that friction has been removed. Sometimes that means we have to ask a potential contributor "are you a human?". @www.jvt.me.web.brid.gy #opensource #tech #llms

People are worried about AI killing open source, I'm more worried about some companies looking to enclose open source under the premise that AI is making it too risky. https://newsroom.ibm.com/2026-05-28-ibm-and-red-hat-commit-5-billion-to-redefine-the-future-of-open-source-in-the-ai-era

I'm going to start getting much more trigger happy with blocking users (mostly security companies) that are abusing the @ecosystems APIs Just blocked one that's been causing a significant amount of timeouts by just hammering the same expensive endpoints over and over.
