Anyone have an explanation for this downtime spike? Reports simultaneously from GCP and AWS, so that's ruled out. Heatmap from different report pages has major cities reporting from every US region.

Hey everyone, please skip the OSS Summit NA keynotes on Wednesday 6/25 in Denver. They're all together only an hour long, so you're not missing much. Thanks in advance.

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.

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.

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.

Thee web presence for MITRE Enginuity appears to have been systematically removed, with the only hint of it's existence found in third party articles and references Error 521 on the website, deleted LinkedIn, even the Twitter account has been deleted Anyone else have info on what happened there?

In spite of the massive library of open source governance documentation scattered around all of our repos... in the end, everything comes back to "ain't no rules says a dog can't play basketball"

To whomever keeps leaving empty glasses on my desk, it's getting old. No matter how many times I carry them to the kitchen, I end up running out of desk space regardless. Please stop.
