Anyone have suggestions for resilient doorknob safety covers?
My 2yo is now just dismantling the cover so that he can open his bedroom door and run amok.

Happy hour tomorrow. Across the street from the #OSSummit conference center. Featuring all the regular suspects from @openssf.org
It's been a year since we first decided we were going to create the Open Source Project Security Baseline — and it's been a wild ride.
I'll be talking about it during a #OSSummit keynote on Wednesday, but beforehand... let's hang out and celebrate a bit!

Anyone have an explanation for this downtime spike? Reports simultaneously from GCP and AWS, so that's ruled out.

Graphs always have a way of reminding me that we literally cannot comprehend what our ancestors were thinking, feeling, experiencing in their lifetimes.
Even such a core human element as "a parent's love" would have different meaning if the context is that 2 in 5 kids die before kindergarten.

Love it when someone randomly tries to teach me about a thing I created — feels like it's got a life of its own.

I have a dream that one day our teams will be able to use the GitHub API predictably and sensibly — without tears, regrets, or thoughts of begging their organization to change to another source forge.

Growing your project means doing less coding
You can't hide from the reality of a growth in non-coding tasks. If you want to keep writing code, recruit others to take on the rest.

So apparently any time an iphone voice memo transcribes the term "Dave & Buster's" it will refuse to send.
There is no content filtering on voice memos, but anything containing Dave & Buster's gets silently dropped — marked as sent, but never gets recieved.
Bug, or corporate warfare?

It can't be understated how much the OSU Open Source Lab has done for open source, in Oregon and worldwide, for 22 years now. So many folks I've worked with have come through there, and been introduced to open source principles, to system administration, to their careers and hobbies.
The Oregon State open source lab which provides hosting for hundred of open source projects, as well as research, resources, and support to countless other others is in trouble and we will shut down soon if they can’t find $250,000. Spread the word and donate give.fororegonstate.org/PL1Uv3Fkug

LLMs are currently subsidized by VC dollars, and the prices MUST get raised by something like 10x to recoup the money that's been spent.
Ridesharing did the same thing — cheap rides until market dominance, then slowly increase the price over time.
Dependency on LLMs will come with a cost.
