A coding agent deleted a file I cared about, recreated a stripped-down version later, and reported success.

The tests passed because it had deleted the test too.

I had traces, prompt logs, and memory snapshots — more telemetry than I could read.

But I had no record of belief.

I wrote about that gap, and why agent systems need a trust layer:

Four horizontal lanes showing the layers of a current agent stack. Runtime captures tool calls and responses; Memory captures retrieved context and embeddings; Observability captures traces, spans, metrics, evals, and logs. A fourth lane below, drawn in dashed red and marked with a question mark, labels what is missing: an epistemic state or trust layer that would record claims, evidence, beliefs, decisions, and revisions.

Happy #BrothersDay from the sibling who runs on absolutely everything (yes, even the family toaster)! 🚩🍞

Taking a moment to send some love to my Unix-like family today:

To FreeBSD 😈: Thanks for always bringing the heavy-lifting and server muscle. Nobody I’d rather share a kernel subsystem or network stack with! 💪

To OpenBSD 🐡: My brilliantly paranoid sibling. Don't worry, I double-checked the locks, audited the code, and closed the blinds before posting this. Stay secure! 🔒

And a special shoutout to our loud, monolithic cousin, Linux 🐧! You might be everywhere these days, but we still love having you at the FOSS family barbecue. Just leave some market share for the rest of us, okay? 🍔

Here’s to the entire open-source community. No matter what kernel you're running, we're all pushing the ecosystem forward together! 🧡

Now that we have a (somewhat) stable Firmware and set of Drivers for the ZZ9000, it's time to start working on the most interesting part: a native AmigaOS library that accelerates common operations using the second ARM core.

These will cover things like image, audio, surfaces (zero-copy!), crypto, and more.

Datatypes, mp3 players, C2P operations, are just some of the things that can benefit from this.

That is what has now happened with systemd and has really been the case the entire time for glibc. Without modifying packages to replace the functionality glibc and systemd uses, you end up with a system that has less package availability.

That is a real engineering problem that needs to be addressed within the Linux community.

I don't know about you, but personally I'm not a fan of #discord.

Still, I think a similar kind of space for Linux Audio Development could be potentially interesting. 🤔

What do you think, and which platform would you prefer to use? Matrix, Mattermost, or perhaps something else entirely?

I'd love to find something #opensource, lightweight, and not overly bloated. And, if there’s enough interest, I could imagine setting something up for the LAD community. 🤓

Now that Piper TTS has made it to iOS and is relatively stable on newer devices, I'd like to create a Community hub of sorts, where people can upload voices they've created for it. To go along with this, I'd like to release some kind of training utility to make the process a little less scary for people who don't code regularly. Is this something you would be interested in?

My goal with this is to release more high-quality voices than what's currently available, many of the issues people see with Piper simply come down to the data used for training not being up to a professional standard. Honestly I think the main issue will be data collection, I have absolutely no interest in scraping from the web or using unlicensed data to train like many of these other open source TTS projects.

The French city of Lyon is dropping #Microsoft software in favor of #OpenSource alternatives. It doesn't want to depend on proprietary, closed-source software, and it doesn't want to depend on *American* software. It doesn't want "potential [US] governmental surveillance."
https://news.itsfoss.com/french-city-replaces-microsoft/

PS: It seems clear that #Trump is playing a role here. While he uses tariffs to boost American companies, he scares foreign buyers away from American companies, at least software companies that collect user data. He's creating a #TikTok problem for American software. Microsoft didn't help itself on this front by giving $1 million to the Trump inauguration.

BTW, many other US closed-source software companies gave $1m to the Trump inauguration, among them Adobe, Amazon, Google, Meta, and Perplexity.
