Maybe doing open source work for free doesn't absolve you when you start fucking things up for everybody else. Maybe "well fork it and do something" isn't a bulletproof rebuttal when someone fucks everything up for everyone else and people are upset.

I don't care if the guy shitting in the pool maintains the pool for free or it's a free libre public pool. I care that there's shit in the water. There was a common thing and he shat all over it.

FLOSSheads would tell you it's his right to shit in the pool and we don't get to complain about it, and to go build our own pool.

I'm wondering if we should kick the ass of the guy who's actively making things worse for everyone else.

Because, you know, when you have something a shitload of people rely on, then you fuck it up and make it worse, maybe instead of the onus being on everyone else to handle that, we can just kick your ass instead.

Yes, this is an rsync post. tridge has done WORSE than abandoning. At least if it was abandoned we wouldn't have a "latest" version that we all have to dodge because it sucks ass and literally doesn't build lmao.

But we have to respect the guy shitting in the pool I guess.

Here's the real thing Matt's scared of:

He owns the WordPress Foundation and its board is him and his two sycophants.

He personally, private owns WordPress.org and considers it all his own private property he's allowing people to use on a lark.

He owns WordPress.com and Automattic, of course.

He's realizing there's a very real chance that not only are his toys going to be taken away, but that he's also going to get busted for intermingling his organizations and treating them ALL like a melting-pot poured right into his own personal purse. We've seen him conduct similar shady shit in other lawsuits he's been involved with.

He's terrified because WordPress's org structures and his involvement in them hasn't really been under a legal microscope like this before. He's going to get wrecked a lot harder than just WordPress vs WPEngine if this suit presses deeper, which it will. The reaper's coming and this is his existential crisis moment.

IDK I'm hard pressed for the perfect Pride Month meme when we're living the the Hell Times--

and there it is.

@GossiTheDog mythos has found at least one critical vulnerability: the infosec industry is utterly vulnerable to hype, and extremely unlikely to examine the origins or methodology behind vulnerability disclosures that authorities (regardless of their poor reputation) claim are earth-shatteringly critical

Mythos is not great btw. Running it over a bunch of code, it’s similar findings to tools from a few years ago. It’s marketing, essentially. Viral marketing as people doing the marketing are companies and governments.

It’s really good at finding vulns in vibe coded stuff from Claude.. because apparently AI must be both the cause and solution to all life’s problems, like beer.

Slight Suggestive (Artistic Partial Nudity) Furry Art, Pride month art 

Happy pride to everybody! I hope you all piss off as many bigots as you can.

Be gay, do crime :3

The first warning arrived on a Tuesday morning, six weeks after consultants advised moving away from dependency on six hundred small excel scripts - and nobody at Zenith Ledger Advisory paid much attention.

It appeared in the system dashboard between routine audit notifications and a maintenance reminder

we, actually, think that using slop tools to program does disqualify you!

reading an arse slopnica article that says the quiet part out loud:

you likely are running or will eventually run an app containing AI-generated code whether you want to or not

why yes, the "we don't want to do that" part is a fucking problem

Hey, I'm gonna put this out there now:

When the backlash of the true cost of LLM becomes critical and companies start having to bend to hire and rehire talent they cut because "AI is here and we don't need humans anymore"? That needs to come with tech worker unionization.

Start planning this now if you're in a position to. Quietly. You don't have the upper hand yet, but either you will soon, or we'll all be screwed. Choose optimism for this one.

A reminder to all the TERFs and transphobic queers out there that the first Pride was a riot, literally. And it was led by trans women and drag queens, including Marsha P. Johnson, as well as lesbians, who refused to submit to police bodily searches during a raid on the Stonewall Inn night club, and who fought back during the cops' attempts to mass arrest patrons and community members.

re: copilot price rise 

tell me, how many managers have you had who would stomach this one?
