Securing open source software requires collaboration between the public sector, the private sector, and the community.

Muy feliz de poder escuchar mi música cuando quiero, las veces que quiero y en los formatos que yo elijo. Todo gracias a el #softwarelibre y a sus #musicplayers que este contiene en mi gusto personal yo elegí el #strawberryplayer que para mi gusto es el mas completo ya que me permite escuchar la música en Flac, mp3, mp4, etc. Tambien me permite transcodificar musica y escuchar radios. #musicplayers #softwarelibre #opensourcesoftware #musica #music #radio #rockmusic

Nur EIN Grund, der unbedingt FÜR
nichtkommerzielle Betriebssysteme & Software in #Schule spricht:
#OpenSourceSoftware u. freie Betriebssysteme auf GNU/Linux-Basis haben den unbestreitbaren Vorteil, dass sie kostenlos erhältlich sind und von den Schulen auch selbst kostenlos verteilt werden dürfen.

👆 Dadurch lässt sich an den Schulen eine gewisse #sozialeGerechtigkeit im Umgang mit digitalen Anwendungen herstellen.

Little tip for when you're suggesting features to a project: "Feature Idea" sounds so much nicer than "Feature Request". Rather than sounding like "I want this, this is an order!", it's more like "Hey, this would be cool, what do you think?"

This also goes out to all the maintainers creating issue labels, by the way.

For those who can't afford commercial software, and for those who want full flexibility and extensibility and future-proofing the ability to open their own art work years from now, there's free open source software:

* #Krita: replaces Adobe Photoshop for editing and painting;

* #Inkscape: multi-page, replaces Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign; great for scientific figures and posters; https://inkscape.org/

* #Gimp: image editor, with layers and transparencies; replaces Adobe Photoshop; https://www.gimp.org/

* #MyPaint: just for painting; https://mypaint.app/

* #FijiSc: for image processing and image analysis, with conventional computer vision techniques and also machine learning. Handles multi-dimensional bioimagery. https://fiji.sc

* #Blender: for 3D animation and video editing; https://blender.org

* #ffmpeg: command-line based video editing; see this page https://ffmpeg.lav.io/ for testing out commands.

I don't use anything else: there's no need. And all of the above are extensively documented.

#OpenSourceSoftware #OSS

#OpenSourceSoftware zu entwickeln, heißt meist, Zeit in der Freizeit zu investieren, um etwas umzusetzen, was für die Anwendenden (und das Entwickly) ein unterstützendes Tool an die Hand geben soll.

Dass die nutzende Community herzlich dazu aufgerufen ist, Fehler zu melden oder Wünsche zu äußern, ist hierbei natürlich selbstverständlich.
Solange diese Meldungen konstruktiv bleiben (und ich muss mich da zu einem gewissen Teil auch selbst noch verbessern).

Es hilft keinem Entwickly, wenn ständig Feedback kommt wie: "Das scheiß Ding stürzt ständig ab" oder "Das kann doch nicht so schwer sein, XY einzubauen". Im Gegenteil. Das führt zu Frustration und trägt eher dazu bei, dass die Lust zur Pflege des Projekts verloren geht.

Wahrt einen höflichen Ton und seid nicht enttäuscht, wenn der angetragene Wunsch nicht sofort umgesetzt wird. Freizeitprojekte leben von Lust und Laune am Machen. Manchmal ist die Motivation höher, manchmal nicht so. Ist halt so. Wir sind alle nur Menschen. Bitte behaltet das im gegenseitigen Umgang immer im Hinterkopf.

@kjaymiller I think as with any documentation the key is knowing your audience: what's the purpose of that file in your project and who do you want to read it? E.g. if it should be as a checklist for maintainers, make it short and terse; if it should be an overview of project-specific conventions for experienced open source contributors who are new to the project, make it a little longer and more detailed; if it should be a tutorial for people getting into OSS contribution for the first time, make it verbose and full of relevant links. Or something like that.

I do think I'm kind of stating the obvious here (like, I suspect none of this is surprising to you), but IMO these are the important things to think about.

Today, we finally launched Open Source Explorers! If any of you know people who would like to get involved in open source but have found it difficult to get into, would you please let them know about our little program?

We’re looking for developers but also specifically for participants who are not developers, e.g. designers, translators, etc. And, yes, we’re building this program especially with folks from marginalised communities in mind because, despite good intentions, OSS isn’t always as welcoming as we’d like it to be, so we want to remove some barriers and get more folks into open source.

Also: participants will be indirectly contributing to humanitarian aid delivery, which is kinda neat, I think.

Landing page: https://distributeaid.org/tech/oss-explorers/

Application form: https://forms.gle/6nyfSoGPn9GLFEnBA

Applications are open until end of November!

If you have any questions or want to become a mentor or sponsor, please reach out to us at the email address linked on the landing page!

And please boost my post and share the info with your networks elsewhere! Thank you! 💙

In case you haven't seen this yet, check out the Single Sign-On Wall of Shame at https://sso.tax/
It lists products and companies that believe secure authentication is for enterprises only. (I removed a rant about a failing "commercial open source" todo app called Focalboard and bug number 103 because they seem to be failing without extra attention.) I've actually had arguments with several of the listed companies' sales people about this exact thing; having the list at hand next time will make my life much easier.

As much as I feel that SSO should be standard for any multi-user app these days, the Wall of Shame is a little kinder about it. From the FAQ:

While I’d like people to really consider it a bare minimum feature for business SaaS, I’m OK with it costing a little extra to cover maintenance costs. If your SSO support is a 10% price hike, you’re not on this list. But these percentage increases are not maintenance costs, they’re revenue generation because you know your customers have no good options.

Have you seen a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) that's made to a single commercial entity (so foundations or non-profits excluded) that does *not* reserve the right to sub-/dual-/re-license on their part unilaterally? (Where?)

Or: have there been legally binding restrictions on the licenses that they might choose?

(Please boost for reach.)

Last week, I presented the work I did with prof. Kuldeep Meel and prof. Arunabha Sen at IJCAI 2023.

We showed the benefits of reducing a problem to a computationally harder problem (yes, you read that right!), by demonstrating how it allows us to solve much larger problem instances.

It was so much fun to finally share this work with so many fantastic researchers at IJCAI! Thank you to all organisers for making this conference possible. I'm also super grateful to the reviewers who gave us great feedback!

Please find our paper, slides, poster, a short video, and our open source tool, gismo, here: www.annalatour.nl/publication/2023-08-01-Solving-the-Identifying-Code-Set-Problem-with-Grouped-Independent-Support

This is really into the policy weeds, but it makes it easier to release scientific software, develop software openly, and contribute to existing open source projects.
