PSA: Do not put git repos inside other git repos. Git is not a package manager. You will make yourself sad. It doesn't matter how many conceptual primitives they share. Don't do it. Just use a package manager. You don't even need a package repository. You can still download things directly from git repos if you want to. Just list them in a package.json or something, and let npm do it. Or go.mod. Anything.
Please. For your own sake. And everyone who comes after you.

“The new RHEL pricing to cloud partners will scale by vCPU count, which is consistent with the most common model for cloud virtual machines (VMs) and software" twenty years ago.

Accidentally back on TikTok and very upset at how many aggregator accounts there are - like a cat video, see that it's been reposted and edited into an aggregator account, block the aggregator, track down the original my life is exhausting and I only have myself to blame

Don't forget to bring your own cake to the #golang devroom at #FOSDEM (I do not have budget for a giant cake where i can jump out of)
Any time I see someone saying something about "X openly supporting Nazis" I think, "That's a *bit* hyperbolic about what happened with the XFree86 / Xorg schism..."
The EU response to this should be simple: Tell Apple it will be barred from trading in the EU unless it commits to implementing EU requirements globally.
Will the EU understand it does not require global jurisdiction in order to have global impact? Let’s wait and see.

Here's a tough but common situation for open source maintainers:
You want a project you co-maintain to be more secure by reducing the attack surface.

The best management advice I ever got is to try and figure out what good management looks like and then put on a performance - try and act like a good manager, go through all of the required motions
Because it turns out imitating a good manager and actually being a good manager are mostly the same thing
(I think about this sometimes when I encounter debates about whether or not LLMs can reason about or understand content)
Me and @charlieegan3 have been working on a new guide for the most common errors seen in #OPA during #Rego policy development. Parser errors, compiler errors and evaluation errors — it's all in there. Hopefully it'll be a useful resource to anyone trying to get a better understanding on why some errors happen, and how to fix them. Feedback always welcome!

Pro tip: If you want to stop being friends with an autistic ADHDer, you probably need to tell them straight out. Because all this "fading away into the woodwork" doesn't work with people who will often not speak to their friends in years without any of the friendship feelings changing.
Not seeing someone doesn't change that we think of them as our friends. So not being in touch with us, doesn't communicate "I don't want to be friends anymore". You're going to have to say it. And don't worry, we'll respect your wishes. We just need to know to understand.

This year’s State of Open Con schedule focuses on establishing the future of open source across software, hardware and data. Open source communities are reliant on a significant amount of unpaid labour. That makes for an interesting dichotomy that is emphasized during economic downturns. Since, theoretically, anyone should be able to join an open source project, it should have lower barriers to entry. But having free time time do free work — or being employed by a big tech company specifically to contribute to open source — is entirely based on privilege. » Read more about: The Future of Open Source is Uncertain »
Went to a tech meetup in Dublin yesterday and no one I spoke to had heard of the fediverse (or Mastodon, even). I’m talking about software engineers. This blows my mind.
(At least everyone I spoke with has heard of it now, though. And when people do hear about it – as with the #SmallWeb – they do get it. And they’re excited about it.)

I strive to respect everybody’s personal preferences, so I usually steer clear of debates about which is the best programming language, text editor or operating system.
However, recently I was asked a couple of times why I like and use a lot of Go, so here is a coherent article to fill in the blanks of my ad-hoc in-person ramblings :-).
In an era of remote work, some employees are recording and posting their video layoffs and firings on social media. It can be empowering in a lonely situation, but is it wise?
Virtually every application today relies on dozens -- and sometimes hundreds -- of open-source components. Many of those get updated at a rapid clip in

Danish friends and other royal subjects of the Kingdom of Denmark. I just want to bring you my best wishes and congratulate you about your new king.
It's really nice to see all those queer flags on his castle.
Did you know? The best reason to get a studio-quality microphone is so you can get real close to it and whisper soft flirty affirmations to your friends and make them blush!
That moment when you realise you're becoming the kind of woman you always wanted to be when you were a boy, but didn't believe you could.

kinda weird how people will just attach chatgpt to customer service things and let it fuck around practically unmonitored while they watch their human employees like a hawk and fire them at the first …
