I wish more people who are worried about FOSS supply side attacks would realize that universal basic income and free healthcare would result in an almost infinite stream of excellent software from people who care more about quality than profit.

Remember when the EU cleared out 1 GB of space?

We should definitely also pay maintainers. Maintainers should be compensated for their work. But we need both. All the visions to *just* pay maintainers don't sound like compensation for work they're already doing. It sounds like paying to control that work, and demand additional reporting and compliance work on top that is of no benefit to the maintainer.

Licenses like GPL are reciprocative licenses. If you take, you must also give back. Licenses like MIT are parasitic licenses. You can take without giving back. #software #freedom #licenses #reciprocative #parasitic

Your time was not wasted. You may have procrastinated but that's only because you are really burnt out, and besides it's not all bad. You probably got some ideas, inspiration, or something from it. And besides sometimes it's ok to take a break. You don't have to be "useful" all the time. It's ok. You tried your hardest and that's enough, and whatever you did today you will learn from for tomorrow and be better. Also you are not worth what you can output *pat pat* :strawb_headpats: This is mostly a note to myself but also something I think some of you may need to hear and accept like me.

“trans people don't want equality, they want special treatmen-” Special treatment would be if LGBTQ+ people didn't have to pay taxes. You know, like churches. :trantifa:

I have a lot more to say, but I'll hold it for now and simply wonder aloud... Which BigTech clouds are the "Lavender" & "Where's Daddy?" AI systems running on? What APIs are they using? Which libraries are they calling? What work did my former colleagues, did I, did *you* contribute to that may now be enabling this automated slaughter? (Also, content warning. This is some of the sickest shit I've ever read.) https://www.972mag.com/lavender-ai-israeli-army-gaza/
