nothing ruins my motivation to send fixes to your open source project more than to ask me to sign a CLA for it. sorry guys I'm just not that interested in reviewing a legal contract just to improve your software for free

adhd people so great and fast at autocompleting they start wondering whether they're actually conscious
@flameeyes@mastodon.social Hrmm I'm not sure I agree. Many big tech cos are allergic to the obligations of AGPLv3 because they're afraid of having to release their otherwise proprietary software. But there are plenty of companies who work with and extend AGPL'd software... there are no blockers to me as an individual as there would be with proprietary software.... and it conforms w the Four Freedoms and Open Source Definition. IMO the problem is with big tech and proprietary software, not the FOSS license.
"AGPLv3 is not free software" is a take I did not expect to run into among *checks notes* software freedom enthusiasts.
š„° I have a client who pays me on time *every* month. š” And every single month I have to remind them to pay the VAT. I suspect I will not keep them as a client for much longer.
That's good they'll cover it - my website ended up getting rather expensive $20-$80/mo for bandwidth and builds so I moved it over to AWS instead š

Phanpy now has a version of https://cohost.org 's best feature, and it works with your existing Mastodon/Fediverse account https://indieweb.social/@laurenshof/111997146906858162 TLDR: You follow 40 people, but the people who post infrequently tend to get their posts flooded off the TL by high-volume accounts such as me (mcc) asking cursed C# questions at odd hours. Wouldn't it be cool if you could get the best elements of a sort-by-last-post view and a sort-by-account view in a single screen? (See screenshots at link.)

When I started writing and publishing open-source software about 15 years ago, I was pretty radical about it. I only used permissive licenses like MIT or BSD, as all I cared about was reach. Using a copyleft license with strings attached seemed to hinder that reach. Getting another A-category company

Just saw a commercial so it reminds me to say: never use Grammarly, tell your friends not to use Grammarly, hide yo kids, hide yo wife, Grammarly is bad news. Their data policies are and always have been atrocious, and they should be blocked with all due haste in every corporate environment.

Shortly afterwards, Aaron set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC. All afternoon, while other journalists were breaking the news, we discussed how we should speak about this. Some subjects are too complex to address in a hasty social media post. Here, we share some of our thoughts about tragedy, urgency, and sacrifice.

But I would say yes it is IndieWeb, you don't have to own everything down to the bare metal you're using to be indieweb or IndieWeb. It's unhelpful to gatekeep some of these things, especially when it can be hard enough to get folks to chuck stuff onto Netlify let alone learn how to deploy servers

āOpen Source Economicsā and the āOpen Source Economyā are regularly discussed in the context of how to improve open source softwareās sustainability, contributor diversity and ecosystem quality. Too often, though, the use of the word āeconomicsā brings incorrect assumptions about the problems to be solved.
Bruce Perens is angry. A veritable Jeremiah amid a throng of open source Pollyannas at OpenUK's State of Open Con 24 in London, the co-founder of the Open Source Initiative (OSI) and the Open Source Definition, railed against what he sees as corporate capture of the movement he helped to kickstart.

Attached: 1 image Traveling while queer is so often an experience of weird looks, people trying to reconcile the beard and the skirt, quick vibe-checks when entering a business to make sure I feel safe. It's an absolute delight to stop into a little breakfast place as we're getting on the road, and have the big questions be about how we liked our drinks because the person making them was trying something new today. (The answer is that they were excellent.) Genuine friendliness to the queer couple in a small town is such a nice way to start a day.
