If AI is all it’s cracked up to be, why am I still hand-deleting so many cold emails selling things I don’t want?

This post makes a terrific point that the one thing the #opensource community doesn’t seem to want to iterate on is the set of licenses defined as “open source”. And, why no widespread accepted code equivalent of CC-BY-NC?

Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing.
I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.
But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.

WHSmith rebranding to TGJones is ridiculous. I think they were forced to rename after the high street shops but not the travel outlets were sold, but they either should have also licensed the brand, or taken the opportunity to do something different. What the have just looks shoddy and second-rate ☹️

Not going to name and shame but I’ve already been shown a bit of booth design at #kubecon where the most charitable interpretation is that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

Seems I'm not the only one saying that #opensource is free like a puppy - an analogy I in turn got from @mauilion.dev 🐶
To vet open source software, evaluating the business model, funding and governance behind projects you depend on is essential for business continuity.

Just discovered, for the first time here on Bluesky, someone who has blocked me. I accidentally learned this because they interacted with someone I follow, and I was curious who they are. I wouldn’t have been surprised by this on the old place, but genuinely a bit put out! 😢
