Diese ganze Microsoft-Milliarden-Kiste aus Bayern wird mit jeder Umdrehung bizzarer.

Extrem gut recherchierter Artikel von Golem dazu: https://www.golem.de/news/digitale-souveraenitaet-in-bayern-noch-mehr-geld-fuer-microsoft-2602-205215.html

"...haben sich die Kosten für den Microsoft-Support in nur fünf Jahren um rund 900 Prozent erhöht."

Finanzminister: "Seit den 1960er Jahren nutzen wir, die staatliche und die kommunale Verwaltung, Microsoft-Produkte."

Dass das US-Unternehmen erst im April 1975 gegründet wurde, ist dem Minister dabei wohl entgangen."

TCPDF has now reached the end of the road. Its successor is tc-lib-pdf: modular, strictly typed, PHP 8.2+, with proper PDF/A, a real CSS engine, CMYK/prepress and signed PDFs.

☸️ Workshop at the Workshop-Tagen 2026: A Hands-On Day with Kubernetes, Platform Engineering & Open LLMs

Kubernetes has become the universal runtime, for platform teams building internal developer platforms and for AI teams running large language model inference at scale. In this full-day, hands-on workshop held by Kevin Nash, you'll experience both sides of modern Kubernetes through two self-contained labs, built entirely on open source and CNCF tooling running on upstream-conformant Kubernetes.

🔍 In the morning, you'll build a production-ready internal developer platform with golden paths, GitOps governance, and platform observability, using tools like Karpenter, kro, ACK, Backstage, Kyverno and Argo CD. In the afternoon, you'll deploy and scale open-weight LLM (Mistral) inference workloads with GPU-aware autoscaling, distributed computing and AI agents, using vLLM, Ray, Strands Agents and NVIDIA DCGM. Two different challenges, one shared foundation: Kubernetes and the cloud-native open source ecosystem.

📅 Tuesday, 8 September 2026, from 🕘 9:00 AM

🌍 Workshop language: English

It is one thing to convince your friends to use XMPP, it is another to have them easily be able to sign up their friends too.

https://txw.ca/mod-signup-keyword/

This is a mod for ejabberd which allows in-band registration with a fixed pre-shared key. It replaces the standard mod_register.

So your friends can pass this PSK to their trusted friends, and they can sign up for an account, and pass it to their trusted friends.

An XMPP Client needs to surface a UI element for the PSK to be entered, and returned to the ejabberd server. I’ve tested it with my hobby client, Mach.

So now I'm hearing about so-called Open Source projects closing PR contributions from the outside world because it's easier to "generate the code" from within their org just based on people's bug reports or whatever.

**Mask off moment.**

These people never cared about #OpenSource or #LibreSoftware. They just cared about marketing & free labor. Now that they can get "free labor" from slop machines faster, they'll do that.

Folks, we need real community now more than ever.

RT @ihtesham2005: Ein Mann namens Shin hat Palantir kostenlos als Open-Source-Projekt veröffentlicht. Es heißt OpenPlanter. Palantir hilft Regierungen und großen Unternehmen, verstreute Daten über Menschen, Unternehmen, Verträge und Geld zusammenzuführen. OpenPlanter könnte diese gleiche Macht den normalen Menschen zugänglich machen. Man füttert es mit Unternehmensakten, politischen Spenden, Offenlegungen der Lobbyarbeit, Regierungsaufträgen oder anderen öffentlichen Dokumenten. Seine KI-Agenten durchsuchen alles, identifizieren dieselben Personen und Unternehmen über verschiedene Datensätze hinweg und verwandeln die Verbindungen in einen live Wissensgraphen. Man kann auf eine Entität klicken, ihre Beziehungen verfolgen und die ursprünglichen Quellen hinter jedem Fundstück überprüfen. Die Desktop-App funktioniert bereits auf macOS, Windows und Linux. Sie unterstützt OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter und lokale Modelle über Ollama. Aber OpenPlanter ist immer noch ein Projekt in der frühen Phase. Es ist bei Weitem nicht so weit entfernt von den Daten, Ressourcen oder der Reife von Palantir. Dennoch ist die Idee enorm.
