It's important to understand that we build open source for us. If you want it to be built for you, then you can join us to help build it and then it will be built for you too. That's how it works.

Most of the problems in the (open source) software supply chain can be summarized as... "I want somebody else (my upstream) to solve the problems I am pushing to my customers (my downstream) for me with their own effort and money. I am focused on my products/services"

This put a smile on my face

Законопроектът ни за единен електронен трудов запис, който да замени хартиената трудова книжка, беше почти единодушно приет във водещата парламентарна комисия (15 'за', 2 'против). Благодаря на колегите от всички групи без Възраждане за консенсуса.

After 2+ years of being annoyed by @GNOME Calendar's cramped window size for its calendar events editor dialog, I've finally spent the hours required to build the thing and throw a three-lines patch at the problem 😤
Happy new year, #opensource punks! gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome…

Kinda crazy to realize that it's a mere nine months until the next Java LTS release (21, due in September), with many teams just having moved to Java 11 not too long ago. I think as an industry we still must become much better with adopting new releases more quickly.

If people think that they can specify requirements exact enough that an AI can produce the code, I’m laughing my ass off. Where have these talented people been in the last 50 years writing the instructions for human developers? #ambiguity

It warms my old developer tools heart to see eclipse JDT being refactored to be more reusable standalone to enable awesome java tooling beyond just Eclipse desktop IDE. – at Faaborg-Midtfyn, Danmark

This is probably worth repeating regularly: open source is about making your problem upstream's problem.
If you do not support said upstream, it will quickly become your problem again.
Invest on your own future. Reduce your long term costs. Support your upstream.
