Analysis: news organizations' open-source activity has fallen from a peak of 2,092 new public GitHub repositories in 2016 to 396 in 2025, an ~80% decline (Nieman Lab)

Journalism lost its culture of sharing. Here’s how we rebuild it
The data are clear: The open-source culture that defined an earlier era of online journalism has collapsed.

'inxi' is a CLI system information tool - it's got modes that cover a lot of different things, but for example if you're speaking to someone with a graphics problem, instead of asking them which GPU they have, and then checking their Mesa etc options - just ask them to paste you the output of 'inxi -G'

inxi is a full featured CLI system information tool. It is available in most Linux distribution repositories, and does its best to support the BSDs.

For hosting our internal source code repositories, we're using #gitea. There are a bunch of other options and all of them seem to mimic github's look and feel. Gitea was the one I found out about first some years ago and it stuck. It has an issue tracker and works well for doing pull requests and reviewing them online.
There's a commercial cloud hosting offer and an enterprise opt…

Bitbucket recently announced shutting down inactive workspaces.
I logged there, and my Ph.D stuff (mostly papers, some Python) were all there.
To preserve them, I asked #Copilot to write a script to move them to GitHub.
If you want to admire the slop, there’s now a post about it

Migrate Bitbucket repositories to GitHub · Technical inconsistencies blog
Just before Christmas, I got an email from Bitbucket saying that inactive workspaces will be deleted. Almost 20 years ago, I created a Bitbucket workspace to host my university stuff (mostly for my research thesis and various papers). And while I have the final PDFs, I did not want all that LaTeX to go to waste, so I decided to migrate everything to GitHub (which, since 20 years ago, added private repositories to their free offering).

An initial group of 28 malicious skills targeting Claude Code and Moltbot users were published to ClawHub and GitHub between January 27-29, 2026. A second larger group of 200 skills were published January 31-February 1, bringing the total number of malicious skills to 230 .

Mapping a Universe of Open Source Software
The repositories of distributions such as Debian and Nixpkgs are among the largest collections of open source (and some unfree) software. They are complex systems that connect and organize many interdependent packages. In this blog post I'll try to shed some light on them from the perspective of Nixpkgs, mostly with visualizations of its complete dependency graph.

One question: does #Gitlab support private repositories with the free tier?

Maybe private companies shouldn't run the core infrastructure of technology stacks after a certain point.
At some point, package repositories become public utilities.

Of course, actions/checkout does not support Git repositories with a SHA-256 object format and it fails with a non-obvious error message about not finding your commit.

I just found a relatively new tool for syntax-aware diff/merge operations on git repositories ( #Mergiraf ).
Unlike other tools I've tried in the past, this one is also diff3-friendly .

For the weirdos like me who prefer `rebase` over `merge` this can be a great mood & productivity booster

Target's dev server offline after hackers claim to steal source code
Hackers are claiming to be selling internal source code belonging to Target Corporation, after publishing what appears to be a sample of stolen code repositories on a public software development platform. After BleepingComputer notified Target, the files were taken offline and the retailer's developer Git server was inaccessible.

I just found out that #renovate stopped working on my repositories, when I configured "manual merge" as the sole merge strategy on #Codeberg/#Forgejo. It said that the tool was "blocked".
That's too bad, because that's the only merge strategy that seems to enabl…

Estimating Spatially Resolved Radiation Fields Using Neural Networks

https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.17654 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.17654 https://arxiv.org/html/2512.17654
arXiv:2512.17654v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We present an in-depth analysis on how to build and train neural networks to estimate the spatial distribution of scattered radiation fields for radiation protection dosimetry in medical radiation fields, such as those found in Interventional Radiology and Cardiology. Therefore, we present three different synthetically generated datasets with increasing complexity for training, using a Monte-Carlo Simulation application based on Geant4. On those datasets, we evaluate convolutional and fully connected architectures of neural networks to demonstrate which design decisions work well for reconstructing the fluence and spectra distributions over the spatial domain of such radiation fields. All used datasets as well as our training pipeline are published as open source in separate repositories.
