One shared Markdown index, many developers and coding agents writing through separate Git branches.

The entries may be completely unrelated - but if they land at the same place, Git can still produce a merge conflict.

I solved this in Keep the Why by giving the index deterministic A-Z / 0-9 write areas from the beginning.

The nice part: this mainly solves the sparse-index problem. As the index grows, its existing entries naturally create more separation.

It also makes the structure easier for coding agents to search.

Good idea: Run your own personal cloud

https://cloudinabottle.org

Most of the software we use every day runs on someone else's computer. Cloud in a Bottle is an open source project that lets you run your own cloud server with one click app installs, just like a smartphone. It works on an old laptop, a cheap rented server, or a managed instance starting at $5 a month. The catalog already includes file storage, a password manager, media streaming, a private search engine, and more. Every app runs in its own security sandbox and all your data stays yours with no lock in. It's early days but the whole thing is open source and actively developed.

Open source tools like FreeCAD are okay for quick sketches, but the transition from traditional CAD is often overrated. The flexibility is there, but the workflow feels clunky compared to what I used for my projects in Kyiv. Most people push it for the price, but for a real architect, the logic of the space matters more than the software license. It is a tool, not a solution for better design.

I posted in an open source community chat, where everyone seems to get an appropriate response, and I got the response too, but it kinda didn’t resolve what I expected to get. It said that everything supposed to work. I explained in next 5-10 messages how to reproduce it, but got nothing in response. Is it that obvious that I should create an issue instead of dumping it in the chat?

RE: https://floss.social/@Luanti/117236624063635761

I must admit that I am not privy to the particulars of this matter. However, Luanti's contributions to the FOSS community would be best served by his continuation in his role. Microsoft has expressed concerns that the Luanti interface bears a striking resemblance to Minecraft. However, it's important to note that Luanti does not resemble Minecraft at all. Instead of being a closed source, Luanti is an open platform that empowers individuals to create their own gaming experiences and modifications.

Imagine if Luanti were a lookalike of Roblox, but it was born as free software and was part of the FOSS community. This would allow users to do anything with it and would not limit the creativity of game developers.

It should be noted that one of Luanti's games, Mineclonia, is a result of cloning/reversing Minecraft. However, its results differ significantly from the original Minecraft. Therefore, in the event of Microsoft withdrawing their DMCA claim, it would be reasonable to conclude that Luanti should be allowed to live.

Fortunately, unlike Codeberg, the Git providers GitHub, GitLab, and GitFlic have all been in agreement and have seen reason.

The scam group, along with their allies, have previously filed multiple false flag reports. They have a clear financial incentive to discourage, oppress, and discredit any attempt to filter them out — and that includes my block list.

It has been over a month since the Codeberg incident. While I would have preferred a repository with better digital sovereignty than the USA or Russia, it ironically seems the more reliable providers with sound reasoning are GitHub, GitLab, and GitFlic.

I would argue and encourage FOSS developments to think about that. The last thing you want is your work being sniped by a bunch of trolls dogpiling your project. It seems prudent and wise to choose a provider who ignores drama, false flags, and other such nonsense.

The deepest lock-in in most buildings is not the cloud contract. It is the ERP. Finance, stock, people and customers all at once, which is why the renewal is never negotiable and most organisations inherit rather than choose.

I have written up what replacing the tier-one default with Odoo, a Belgian open-source suite, looks like in practice. Scoped first phases in weeks, six of them for one function, not the six-to-eighteen-month norm the incumbents quote. The honest limits are in there too: deep vertical functionality is where SAP earns its price.

What happens when a fresh coding-agent session sees an idea that was already investigated and rejected?

I ran a small experiment: 10 sessions without recorded rationale, 10 with it stored in the repository.

Without project memory, 7/10 sessions put the rejected approach back on the table.

With the rationale available: 0/10.

The runs were also noticeably faster: median wall time dropped from 43s to 18s.

The point is not that Markdown makes the model smarter.

It simply lets the next session start where the previous one ended.

Plot twist:
The EC is using the ambiguity in the legal text and communicated last Friday that steward reporting start Dec 11, 2017 instead. Presumably, someone somehow was badly behind schedule and they felt a need to accommodate. Oh well.

> Article 24(3) of the CRA establishes that reporting obligations [..] apply to open-source software stewards under certain circumstances. [..] Article 24(3) shall apply from 11 December 2027.

#freshrss is such a nice reminder that web apps don’t have to be bloated.

53 requests, ~408 KB of resources, ~27 KB transferred, DOMContentLoaded in 103 ms, and fully loaded in 142 ms.

Fast, lightweight, open source and hosted on a small raspberrypi on my network with no maintenance needed for the last five years or so. (via a docker compose container that gets the latest version every weekly with no manual intervention other than a pull/restart).

The trendy new term Homelabbing is gradually becoming part of our everyday lives. Essentially, it means building servers at home and running pretty much any software you can think of on them.
There are countless ways to use a homelab. You can install ready-made solutions like Home Assistant, set up a database, build a home media library, run your own service, or deploy yet another app you vibe-coded over a weekend.
What got me interested in Homelabbing was an old laptop. Its battery had died for the second time in a year, and there was no way to upgrade its RAM beyond 8 GB. I started thinking about replacing the laptop, but the old machine turned out to be a great platform for getting familiar with Homelabbing and Self-Hosted solutions.
For the operating system, I chose Proxmox. In my opinion, it is one of the most convenient options for projects like this thanks to its open-source nature, extensive set of tools for working with virtual machines, and convenient web interface.
The first thing I installed on the server was Home Assistant, along with a Linux virtual machine for learning the popular Hermes tool. I’ll talk about both of them in more detail in upcoming posts.

In other good news, I have been using KeePassXC(KeePassDX on Android) for months now...It is a solid ass app both on my computer and my phone. It does the job and produces some good passphrases and passwords when I need it to, on Android it supports fingerprint unlocking of my password vault.

There is also a plugin for it to autofill in a browser, so that's also handy (admittedly slightly risky).

I do like the offline nature of it, and if I ever need to update my stored passwords I use a microSD and use that to transfer information between my two devices.

Or for single entries I will manually edit and update them. I enjoy the intentional nature of being offline and how it makes me remember to practice good database hygiene on a regular basis.

🇨🇦 Heliox: Where Evidence Meets Empathy — "Folding Giant AI Brains Into Your Pocket"

The AI industry has spent years telling us bigger is the only way forward. This episode traces the quiet counter-story: a proven mathematical theorem that lets engineers shrink massive models onto ordinary phones and laptops, without guessing and without dumbing them down.
We go from emergent "outlier" numbers that broke early compression attempts, through GPTQ and the Hessian matrix, to the discovery that engineers had secretly reinvented a 40-year-old lattice geometry algorithm — all the way to the linearity theorem itself.

»If you hit a bug, describe it to a coding agent and open a PR.« — Taylor Otwell

This is such a terrible idea.

#Laravel disabled Issues in some of their Repos. Instead of reporting an issue, you have to open a PR, and the recommendation of the Laravel Head itself is to just vibe code it.

I really hope this idea will not spread. But so many people follow Taylor Otwell so blindly I would be surprised if this would see almost no backlash.

I used to be willing to contribute some effort, testing and bug reporting to various #OpenSource projects. But once I hear that the project used Vibe coding? It "chills" my willingness to contribute and engage. I can't afford to be used as the "slop mopper", providing the due diligence which the #LLM user didn't do themselves.

So Vibe coding creates a two-pronged dilemma. Either:

1) the LLM user must lie that they didn't use it - to prevent people like me from feeling the chill - and now there needs to be a sophisticated system of vetting to ensure LLMs *weren't* used, if not mentioned. Once trust is lost (as the deceptions get revealed), that adds a lot of complexity, to try to patch this up, and try to ensure trust again!

2) the LLM user is truthful that they used LLMs. And now the chilling effect occurs: testing and bug reporting contribution and efforts run away from them, to avoid "mopping the slop". Where did the gains go, as seen in the broader sense of progress for the whole software project? Bug reports and testing that might have come along for free, stop coming.

So at the end of the day, the LLM user thinks they got ahead with the little turbo boost in productivity from vibe coding. But that just "robs Peter to pay Paul". The downstream tester or bug reporter must - if they knew what was good for them - defend their time, energy, and "spoons", from being silently and deceptively conscripted into the role of "slop mopper".

#introduction time! My name is Matt, I'm new to veganism.social, but not new to the #Fediverse. I first joined in 2018 on a #mastodon instance that's probably gone by now. I've been leaving and coming back over the years due to health and life circumstances, but I've been consistently back on for a while.

Anyways, I'm an #opensource web developer (#php/#vue), #punk/#metal musician, #anarchist, #antifascist as hell, #feminist, #ally, and hater of #bigtech and what #ai is doing to our planet. Speaking of our planet, I am a #vegan for health and ethical reasons, but I am not going to be shitty towards people if they're not.

I'm in the process of building out my own little spot on the #indieweb/#smallweb so I can return to running my mouth on a blog.

If I followed you, it's probably because we have common interests, or I enjoy your brand of #shitposting. Or you've activated my inner-geek with #startrek and #videogames.

Anyways, thanks for reading all of this. I hope the attached picture of Marvin the Mushroom has brightened your feed in some way.

Mały podgląd zza kulis. Właśnie przenoszę zestawienie curated do nowej bazy wiedzy. Zamiast luźnego wpisu na blogu buduję profesjonalny katalog oprogramowania oparty na układzie kart. Całość jest maksymalnie czysta, przejrzysta i merytoryczna.

Jak oceniacie ten kierunek zmian wizualnych i architektonicznych? Wasze opinie i sugestie są bardzo mile widziane.
