May 27, 1917: On this date Jerry Sage was born in Victoria, BC, Canada. He served in the Office of Strategic Services & was captured by the Germans during the battle of Kasserine Pass. While a prisoner at Stalag Luft III, he was known as known as the "Cooler King.” Sage was portrayed by actor Steve McQueen in the 1963 movie The Great Escape. After numerous attempts, Sage made his final escape across Poland after being a POW for over 3 years.
@Acermendax Les autres archives d’époque croisées par #AnnieLacroixRiz au sujet de la #synarchie (nom que s’est donné depuis au moins 1922 un noyau du grand capital français d’initialement 12 personnes (11 connues seulement), et allant jusqu’à une « liste de membres » policière, de ou postérieure à août 1943, comptant 364 synarques et sous-synarques. Qui furent les commanditaires de la poigne fasciste réunie dans #LaCagoule), ces archives donc, sont principalement étudiées dans son livre Le Choix de la défaite dont je vous ai déjà parlé par mél à l’ #Astec, ce sont les suivantes :
Les archives du Secrétariat général de la Police, F/7 n°15343 : « #Synarchie : études, rapports, coupures de presse, 1941-1948 » aux #ArchivesNationales ;
Les rapports de guerre étatsuniens sur la synarchie, 1942-1943 déclassifiés en 1947 dans le livre « Our Vichy Gamble » (Notre jeu à Vichy) par #WilliamLeonardLanger (chef de la Research and Analysis Branch de l’ #OSS (Office of Strategic Services)), où il cite les rapports de #WilliamLeahy (ambassadeur à #Vichy) et de #AnthonyJosephDrexelBiddle Jr. (ambassadeur auprès de divers pays occupés représentés à #Londres).
Le « rapport officiel de fin de mandat d’Occupation de la #France sur la #synarchie », 1944, par #ElmarMichel (chef de la section économique du Militärbefehlshaber in Frankreich) ;
Le fonds W3 du procès en Haute-Cour des ministres de #Vichy, [1914]-1960, , dont une W3, 222, #Lehideux-synarchie (qu’ #AnnieLacroixRiz n’avait pas encore dépouillé à la rédaction du Choix de la défaite) ;
Le seul énorme (359 cotes) dossier W3, 222, aux #ArchivesNationales, composé de trois microfilms dont un volume « Lehideux-synarchie » – d’une série d’enquêtes ouvertes à l’origine non pas sur la #collaboration mais sur l’atteinte à la sûreté intérieure et/ou extérieure de l’État ou #trahison, punie de la peine de mort, conformément à l’article 75 du Code pénal, c’est-à-dire précisément sur le #complot contre la République et l’intelligence avec l’ennemi de la #synarchie – que #AnnieLacroixRiz n’a dépouillé qu’après la rédaction du Choix de la défaite, et qui démontre avec éclat, sur la base de la correspondance d’Occupation, l’existence et le rôle tentaculaire de la #synarchie.
L’article de #HenriDuMoulinDeLabarthète (sous le pseudonyme de #PhilippeMagne, chef de cabinet civil du maréchal #Pétain en 1940-41) : « La synarchie française », joint au rapport de « l’inspecteur spécial » de la PJ #Vilatte, chargé à la #Libération de l’enquête « sur la #synarchie »
Et enfin, le journal « Une saison gâtée : journal de la Guerre et de l’Occupation. 1939-1945 », du grand banquier #CharlesRist, établi, présenté et annoté en 1983 par #JeanNoëlJeanneney (historien à l’ #IEP de Paris (encore lui @RichardMonvoisin ! décidément JNJ ne s’est pas chargé que de brosser #FrancoisDeWendel …)) puisque #AnnieLacroixRiz y a notamment relevé rien de moins que l’aveu accablant de #complot suivant (à l’entrée du 18 décembre 1942, p. 321) :
[Raphaël] Alibert, d’accord avec les gens du #CSAR [Comité secret d’action révolutionaire dit « la Cagoule »] et financé par les synarques de la #BanqueWorms, préparait un coup de force. On s’était entendu avec #Hitler pour que celui-ci, intervenant au bon moment, assure le succès de l’affaire et, se posant en arbitre, impose ses conditions.
Vu le niveau de preuve accablant des archives d’époque, Le Choix aborde aussi des témoignages à postériori mais tout aussi accablants, comme celui dans « Hauts fonctionnaires sous l’Occupation », 1996, des… hauts fonctionnaires (et grands banquiers) #FrançoisBlochLainé et #ClaudeGruson :
tous deux dialoguent sur « la “synarchie” », #Gruson cite « #PierrePucheu, lequel faisait partie de l’équipe de #Barnaud », et demande : « Mais comment #Barnaud lui-même avait-il été nommé là ? » Par la #BanqueWorms, répliquent les vieux amis : #BlochLainé évoque « des groupes actifs, devenus complices, dont un avait, me semble-t-il, ses attaches à la #BanqueWorms » ; « il est possible que la #BanqueWorms ait “poussé” #Barnaud », ajoute #Gruson. Le terme « #synarchie » que #Gruson a employé sans critique génère une note sur « le mythe », abordé par #BlochLainé après quelques mots sur les déjeuners de la banque. Seconde étape, funeste à la thèse du mythe, 23 pages plus loin : « Cette prise du pouvoir par une minorité qui mijotait depuis longtemps, mais qui n’a eu sa chance que grâce à la défaite, a tout brouillé. C’est cette minorité qui a réanimé sans difficulté l’ #antisémitisme, l’ #antimaçonnisme, l’ #anticommunisme, sous le couvert de l’État dont nous étions les agents, dont nous n’avions pas suivi la partie émigrée à #Londres »
If the esteemed committee picks up my proposal, I'll be talking about #FreeBSD and #OSS in a world of corporate lemurs - and how and why we do some of the things we do with open source software. Oh and there may be floppies..
Either way, hope to see as many as possible in #Portugal in September! :)

@khalidabuhakmeh Back when #dotnet was fairly new I did a consulting gig at a big retailer who had built a recommended set of packages and tools for #java and wanted a comparable set of functionality for #dotnet
What we found was that about half the libraries needed to make #java productive (like thread pooling, db connection pooling, etc.) were all built right into #dotnet itself, and so finding #oss or commercial libraries wasn't necessary.

Purdue University researchers simplify FileTSAR+ functionality and package as an #OpenSource application to improve setup, use and maintenance.
Miami Dade College and The Mark Cuban Foundation to host an Artificial Intelligence Bootcamp Initiative that teaches AI concepts to underserved high school students through a 4-saturday bootcamp in the Fall. As part of the four-hour curriculum, students will work with #OpenSource tools each day to build their own AI applications related to Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing and Generative AI.
Penn State College of Earth and Mineral Sciences researcher Rui Zu developed an #OpenSource software package that scientists from interdisciplinary fields can use to precisely analyze materials with complex properties. The software, called ♯SHAARP, models optical responses of materials, and can be used by researchers to identify new or more effective materials for optical applications.

When Harvard and MIT sold edX to 2U, Open edX, the #OpenSource platform that had powered edX, was not part of the sale. The two institutions directed the money from the sale to a new nonprofit, the Center for Reimagining Learning, to maintain ownership of Open edX and to embark on a successor aimed at fulfilling edX’s original mission.
Opening up #OpenSource software to make it more accessible and understandable to more users is a goal of a $1.6 million grant to the University of Missouri and the University of Nebraska-Omaha.

And source code access, with all the permissions needed for Software Freedom, are core to that social framing.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #Linux #SoftwareFreedom
https://copyleft.org/guide/comprehensive-gpl-guidech2.html
From my perspective, I would rather companies *not* adopt a GPL-family license for their commercial products if they don't understand its purpose, and are willing to stand behind it in a social benefit framing.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #Linux #SoftwareFreedom
Perhaps this will change if courts agree that there are third-party beneficiaries—the software-using public—that are harmed when the GPL is misused, abused, and outright violated.
This is the question raised in @conservancy v. Vizio.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #SoftwareFreedom
https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/vizio.html
I think one cannot expect companies that adopted the GPL in self-interest to enforce the GPL in the software-using public's interest, especially if they have a business model based on keeping some versions of the same software proprietary.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #Linux #SoftwareFreedom
Some companies have used the GPL as a "community license" (like "freeware" or "shareware") not a "software freedom license".
The used the GPL for its goodwill and brand power from its association with #Linux and #GNU
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #SoftwareFreedom
It's understandable that companies don't want others to be able to enforce GPL obligations on software that is core to their business.
After all, we've seen how some have used GPL enforcement for their own personal enrichment.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #Linux #SoftwareFreedom
Unfortunately, there are cases where companies have adopted the GPL for their corporate interests, rather than thinking first about protecting rights for software users.
They use contributor agreements (CLAs and ©AAs) that prevent others from having standing to enforce the GPL.
#FreeSoftware #OpenSource #FOSS #OSS #GPL #Linux #SoftwareFreedom
Today, software users have little recourse in cases where intermediaries fail to comply with GPL license requirements unless someone that holds the copyright is willing to enforce the license.

What open source software would get a lot more love if it had a better UI / UX?
@mhoye @vmstan @will I have an ASUS router, and it did become unresponsive and need a hard reboot the other day, but it worked fine after that, so I didn't question too much. Now I am wondering if this is the time to try the Merlin #OSS for it.
I'm just wary at this point of using anything for which open source is not a fallback option (if for no other reason than you never know when a company will stop delivering security patches). And I'm not sure I'm ready to invest the time to setup and manage a pfSense box.

When you contribute to an #OpenSource project via #GitHub: please allow the reviewer of your PR — who asked a question or suggested a change — to determine when a conversation is "resolved".
Even if you're 100% sure you've fixed something as was asked, don't assume the person on the other end noticed. Better to tell them you've fixed it and have them close the conversation once they've had a chance to confirm that.

If you’re a #ReSharper or #JetBrainsRider user and make #dotnet #OSS, I suggest you give JetBrains.Annotations a good look.
It helps you add more functionality to your libraries and helps reduce the false positives in solution-wide analysis. It’s a very powerful meta-programming approach to adding value.
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/Reference__Code_Annotation_Attributes.html
#JetBrainsRider has a License Generator plugin to help you create a suitable license for your #dotnet #OSS projects.
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13307-license-generator
I added #JetBrains #Qodana to my #dotnet #OSS project, HTMX.NET. It runs a #ReSharper linter with over 2,000+ inspections in #GitHub Actions and then gives you an excellent report.
Worked through all the issues, and now all is well.
