A good cheat sheet on how to migrate your GitHub code depositories to codeberg

A lesser-known behavior of Github is that that the peer-review feature for public repos is open to everyone to submit reviews, not just commiters.

Sometimes submitting a third-party peer-review can be a way to move the process along of getting something merged.

But the reviews should be real, useful reviews because you tested the fix or understand the code.

It's not the appropriate way to communicate that you /want/ a feature to be merged.

Certain models of Lenovo laptops now ship with Fedora and Ubuntu Linux. This is done to keep costs low and cater to developers or IT professionals who heavily rely on Linux. Another reason could be the increased unpopularity of Windows 11 in recent times due unwanted features like "AI" or "Recall", but that is just my own wild guess ;) LOL. Would you buy it?

This screenshot shows certain models of Lenovo laptops now ship with Fedora and Ubuntu Linux. You can still chose Win11 if you want.

This week Semios/Almanac laid off an estimated 10% of headcount, including yours truly just today.

It wasn't a surprise, but that doesn't make it suck less.

Which is to say: I'm now 100% available for full time, contract, paid speaking, board, advisory positions. #OpenSource, #BusinessStrategy, #BizOps, #Standards, #Leadership, etc.

That’s more like it. Five copies of Business Success with Open Source were hiding under the packing paper.

I’m holding out a copy of the book while a grey cat and an orange cat each sniff a corner of it. The book is more than twice as thick as my first one!

Screenshot from the Pragmatic Bookshelf newsletter. It reads: The Pragmatic Bookshelf New This Week Business Success with Open Source: Strengthen Your Business with Free and Open Source Software VM (Vicky) Brasseur edited by Adaobi Obi Tulton Free and open source software (FOSS) is the driving force behind nearly all software developed today. With the proper approach, FOSS can form the cornerstone of your company's digital transformation effort, increase developer retention, decrease recruiting cycles, ensure reliable security, and reinforce the company brand. Gain the edge by shifting your company's FOSS strategy from accidental to intentional.

Die Deutsche Verwaltungscloud (DVC) soll Behörden digital souverän machen – doch der Bund bleibt außen vor: Die „Netze des Bundes“ sind veraltet und technisch nicht kompatibel. Laut einer Anfrage der Linken fehlen Konzepte, Netz- und Cloud-Architekturen strategisch zu verbinden. Der geplante Umbau soll bis 2030 dauern. Anke Domscheit-Berg kritisiert das als schwerwiegenden Fehler und bemängelt fehlende Leitlinien für Cloud-Entscheidungen. Die Cloudausgaben des Bundes stiegen 2024 auf 286 Mio. €, doch Open Source spielt weiter kaum eine Rolle. Dabei zeigen BKA und ZITiS, dass Open-Source-Software Sicherheit fördern kann. Domscheit-Berg warnt zudem vor Abhängigkeiten von US-Hyperscalern: 32 Dienste seien bereits im Einsatz, meist ohne echte Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung. Digitale Souveränität müsse höchste Priorität erhalten – als Kanzlerangelegenheit.
