There is a Claude sitting at a table at the Full Picture Restaurant, with another Claude attending to him. The Claude at the table (with teeth) is wearing a belt and suspenders (with intentional seams). The Claude waiter is wearing a red tie and blue blazer. On the table are two shakers of coarse-grained salt and freshly ground truth. There is also a plate of spaghetti ("substrate") with load-bearing sauce, flanked by a genuine fork and a knife with a genuinely sharp point. In addition to the main course, there are two sides (and it's worth separating them): a charcuterie board, and a salad (all green). There's also a glass of water with a slice of lemon (that's the wedge). The waiter is holding a block of parmesan and a grater above the spaghetti, and saying "Just say the word."

A smug GitHub engineer wojak is sitting at his desk. He's wearing a Copilot beanie, and is hooked up via an oxygen mask to a canister of copium. The word "COPIUM" is partially covered by a label, spelling "COPILOT". The engineer is wearing a T-shirt that says "Status: Partially Degraded". On it are a sticker that says "Hello, I am: DevOps", a star-shaped badge that reads "#1 Friday Ruiner", another one that reads "Senior YAML Indentation Engineer", and a blue ribbon that says "Broke the site 3 days in a row award". To the left is a filing cabinet with a comically long book titled "The YAML programming language". To the right is an overflowing trash can marked "Feature Requests". On the wall above is a framed portrait of the horse from the "how hungry?" meme, modified to look like the unicorn on the GitHub server error page. There's a gold plaque attached that reads "Our Founder". To the right is a similar portrait of Clippy, whose plaque reads "Our Mascot". Above the portraits are a navigational sign that says "Creative Writing Department: Status Page Division", a framed and signed "Degree in Wasting Developers' Time", and a graph showing an inverse correlation between uptime and vibe coding. A GitHub logo is prominently visible. On the other wall is a neglected and cracked server rack whose status lights are all red. Labels attached to it read "NPM" and "GitHub Actions". Sitting atop it is an empty and greasy Cava delivery bag, with a wadded-up napkin within. A spiderweb, plus spider, are attached to the server rack. The servers are plugged into a hamster wheel. The hamster is running, trying to reach a bowl labeled "SLOP". He has a desk sign that reads "Copilot Jr." Above the server rack is an erasable sign that reads "0 days since last major outage". Many zeroes have previously been erased. Finally, there is a whiteboard containing sprint goals. They are 1) Copilot, 2) Copilot, 3) Copilot, and 4) Rewrite UI again.

My conclusion so far after this really great discussion: We need to stop leaning on licenses almost entirely, and refocus our attention on collective power and collective action. Organize as developers of Community Software and start finding ways to exert influence on bad actors by having knock-on effects: you misbehave with one project, you get shunned/unsupported/blocked by the entire community. To do this, we would need to stop acting as isolated islands of individual projects, and more as One Big Faction. We need to talk to each other. We need to make decisions together and have the difficult discussions about what we'll accept and what we won't, and how far we're willing to go to do something about it. There's even opportunity to share and pull resources and time. Community Software would need to be a big Covenant that we hold ourselves to, that all are welcome into until they threaten the good of what we have built together.
"thinking about foss stuff, and I know I've groused about licensing stuff before, and how I feel like my only way out is to just Parity7 everything and fall into obscurity but... ...I think we need a different movement around open source, with new terminology, that clarifies the intent and opens doors to more pro-social behavior and capabilities (up to and including the potential for "ethical licensing"). I've been spitballing the terms Common Software and Community Software. The core idea is that things that count as Community/Common Software can't enter the realm of the proprietary (so, strong copyleft a-la AGPL and Parity, virality not necessary). What's the difference from "Free Software"? We get rid of "freedom zero", aka "the freedom to run software for any purpose". Common Software licenses may have Non-Commercial clauses, Anti-Particular-Industry clauses (such as anti-MIC stuff), etc. I think "freedom zero" was a grave mistake. I get where it came from--a desire to remove discrimination--but what it resulted in was a hijacking of Free Software by the corporate "Open Source" wing to exploit an otherwise healthy community of people openly sharing their creations... for an enormous profit that we can't even quantify right now. We need a strong return to copyleft, and we need to gather together and grow its existing ecosystem, away from the MIT/BSD poison that our world has turned towards. Your thoughts are welcome on this. I want to have a conversation about this stuff and maybe eventually record all this in a longer-form blog post. If you know folks who have had similar thoughts please link them so we can chat, too."

‪leon‬ ‪@lacroixboi.bsky.social‬ · 2h can you clarify what sort of “social consequences” you’re going for here ‪Kat Marchán 🐈‬ ‪@zkat.tech‬ · 2h people deciding to use other software, your users posting issues asking you to reconsider your usage, people pointing out that you've chosen to use this technology in spite of its harms. That's the gist of it. Even I'm not gonna stop using this entire list. I don't intend to. Some surprised me.
Operating Systems Name Alternative(s) Evidence Linux Kernel BSD? Honestly this one's tough Maintainers are explicitly trying out the technology and considering LLM-based reviews
@fasterthanlime is a pretty open and prominent LLM user and booster. It's pretty safe to assume any other software/libraries by @fasterthanlime are similarly tainted.
"The intention of this list is to raise awareness of this technology's usage in popular software, as well as give people informed alternatives that they can reach for when they want to make decisions for themselves. This is not a list created so you can go and give these projects trouble for their decision. If you want to file a complaint about it with them, we consider that acceptable but ask that it be done respectfully and constructively."
online lib mental gymnastics: people who support trans rights support trans rights more than people who do not support trans rights online community mental gymnastics: The bougie trans lawyer is going to complain like a common Karen to the barista's employer and try to get her fired if the barista messes up her latte. Or work for the barista's boss to try to bust her union. These scum have no solidarity. Does Peter Thiel look out for queer workers? Does he fuck.

"After going through this thread, and seeing how [user] is getting dog piled, I am holding more vigilance against liberals in the United States at this point than MAGA, despite MAGA being the one in power. A lot of "kill em all let God sort it out" posting going on in there..."

Hopefully this ends in anti-American witchhunts in Europe and Canada. American border towns should be burned by rioters. American students abroad should start being expelled. American families on vacation should start getting tared and feathered in the streets of Paris and Rome.

quote tweet saying "I used to be solidly behind the Dems, a Texan in a blue city, just hoping and canvassing and TRYING. Since the first Obama election. Because I saw them as our only hope. This hits hard. They were never really even trying. Explains a lot. 😞 I've always been registered independent, good job instincts"
