Maintaining an OSS project is so much more than just writing and shipping code. It involves taking care of the community and core team. It’s emotional. It’s exhausting. Its unhealthy. But we (maintainers) do it because we love the product and community. Please appreciate your OSS maintainers🙏

Today, if you publish a popular Go module on a URL and you lose control of the URL (through, eg, domain expiration and having the domain snatched up), you have a problem that's probably more or less impossible to deal with short of making blog/Fediverse/etc posts about the situation. Go module identity is tied to URLs with more or less no external override or way to automatically announce and see problems (individual people can override for their usage, but that doesn't scale).

Some people claim that they can use dark magics to force Linux to do what they want. But that's just sudoscience
I've written about it more verbosly in Why should you blog? and also helped as someone with ADHD not to mention being a wealth of knowledge I can look back on, that I mostly write for me, but I see lots of traffic coming to my site with folks trying to solve similar problems!

Such a huge part of being an adult for me is having the freedom to create rules and boundaries that help me become the person I want to be. You don’t have to live by the rules that were imposed on you as a kid or even as an adult. You get to make new ones that work for *you*.

Past-self just saved me 2+ hours by documenting how to do the thing that took ~3 hours to figure out and fix last time. Good job past-self. Also, good job current-self for remembering that past-self should have documented this and then going to find the doc.

> "Just as GitHub was founded on Git, today we are re-founded on Copilot." Look, I respect the heck out of the technical implementation of LLMs, but let's be honest: statistically they produce average code at best and misunderstood/invalid code most often. They re-implement old bugs and obfuscate programmer intent and anyone who is leaning on them for more than a pair assist is making software harder for the rest of us. #AI #Git #GitHub #Copilot #GenerativeAI #LLM #ChatGPT 🔗 https://github.blog/2023-11-08-universe-2023-copilot-transforms-github-into-the-ai-powered-developer-platform/

Gonna give a talk ("Open Source: Boundaries, Burnout and Business”) and chat with folks about open source software at the first OpenUK Scottish meet up in Edinburgh on 22nd November 2023 from 6-9PM.

As exhausting as it can be, I feel like many open source software maintainers could make a reasonable dent into the net hatred put into this world by choosing to quietly ignore the issues they think are stupid rather than trying to publicly humiliate the people who file them

thinking today about back when I was in code school in SF one of the cofounders was OBSESSED with my two-character twitter handle, and even though I went by my birth name at the time, he would call me kf so I called him by his handle, too a year later, one of the staff told me that every time I did this, he would go upstairs in the office, slam doors, and tell the staff that I was insulting him for having a four-character handle 😂 anyway that’s how I got my name 🤣 #fragilemasculinity

An update that absolutely no one could've seen coming**: One of the companies using AI instead of qualified copywriters to draft their career guide blog posts is now realizing that these texts are highly generic, repetitive, and of little value for readers. They will have to be redone, and a lot of time and resources were wasted. Awww. 😏 (** Just kidding. This was, of course, utterly predictable.) #AI #Fail

Hot take: a virtual hackathon is “just” an online open source community tuned for onboarding and “my first app” programs. The real unlock is long term maintenance and useful apps that get devs paid.

some naive networking greybeard once wrote that a good URL never changes, or something but URLs do change because everything changes, and the expectations around their longevity and change are one place where people exert power and have power used over them. if people rely on a URL they're actually relying on a stream of labor. There is no "static" content, all data storage requires some portion of ongoing renewal: new materials and ongoing human care.

Most folks don’t seem to realize how gravely under-resourced and under-funded the #PHP project is. For a technology that powers 77% of the web and has very little corporate backing, it's a wonder the project makes any headway at all. At times, it almost feels like the industry is doing this on purpose to choke out the language.
