Vernielt OpenAI nu alle Opensource modellen die beschikbaar zijn en/of in ontwikkeling, of hebben ze nog een kans?

Whoop whoop - Schleswig-Holstein geht voran bei der Digitalisierung und #OpenSource in der Landesverwaltung.
Für mich macht das ein gutes Gefühl in SH. Ich freue mich hier zu sein. Freue mich über so eine erfolgreiche und sinnvolle Regierungsarbeit. Getrieben von einem CDU-Minister.

It's at least the second time that I see maintainers of "#opensource" be actively and strongly upset that people (as in other free/open source devs, not big corps) actually make use of the licensing terms that they gave to their software.
It's just baffling to me. Is it that people don't understand the implications of the licenses they choose? That they never actually believed in the freedoms they gave but just thought it sounded sexy somehow, wanting to have their cake and eat it too?

The recent release of Apertus, a fully open suite of large language models (LLMs), is super interesting.

Apertus: A fully open, transparent, multilingual language model
EPFL, ETH Zurich and the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) released Apertus today, Switzerland’s first large-scale, open, multilingual language model — a milestone in generative AI for transparency and diversity.

When you propose a change to some larger #OpenSource project, you are bound to sooner or later receive a response which could be paraphrased as: "I am sorry for not replying either but I had to receive clearance to speak about our VERY IMPORTANT internal project. I am THOROUGHLY DISAPPOINTED that the proposed changes are even being seriously considered. We have built a whole business around exploiting your volunteer work, and now you're proposing something that may actually require us to do some work and update our tooling."

Schleswig-Holsteins Digitalminister Schrödter rudert zurück: Nach Chaos, Ausfällen und Kritik an seinem Führungsstil entschuldigt er sich für Pannen bei der #OpenSource-Umstellung. Richtig bleibt: Weg von MS-Monopolen, hin zu freier Software. Falsch war: Überheblichkeit statt Organisation. Digitalisierung lernt man eben nicht „vom Zuschauen“, sondern durch Planung.

When the law enforcement is corrupt, the criminals roam free and the law is used to pursue people over personal dislikes. We really want the criminals out of law enforcement.
When the #CodeOfConduct enforcement is corrupt, the truly toxic people roam free and the rules are used to bully people over personal dislikes. Why do we applaud projects for adopting a CoC if they are not pursuing independent judgement?

You know what's the difference between a human programmer and an "#AI coding assistant"?
Sure, human programmers make mistakes. And rookies often make "worse" mistakes than an #LLM can come up with. However, the difference is that humans can actually learn. Teaching them comes with a payoff; not always and not necessarily for your project, but there's a good chance that they'll become better programmers and contribute back to the community.
Sure, human programmers sometimes plagiarize. And of course they need to look at some code while they learn. However, they actually can think on their own and come up with something original. And they can learn that plagiarism is wrong.
And most importantly, usually they don't lie if they don't have to, and there are limits to their smugness. You can build a healthy community with them.
You can't build a community with unethical bullshit-spitting machines.
#programming #FreeSoftware #OpenSource

If you're writing a library, you should really avoid #CMake. CMake is designed to lock you in. As in, once you release a #FreeSoftware project using CMake, you can't switch to another build system with causing real trouble to your users. And if you support multiple build systems, as soon as you start supporting CMake, some of your users are going to start locking everyone else in.
That's because CMake uses a custom package discovery mechanism that's hardly compatible with anything else, and that is so complex that it's very hard to reimplement it with any other build system. So when others start relying on the CMake config files being installed (and they naturally will, since that's how CMake does things), you can't stop installing them without actually breaking stuff. And if you want to preserve them without actually using CMake, well, good luck with that.
And if CMake is one of the options you support, then some of your consumers will accidentally start relying on it anyway. And this will be much worse for everyone, because now their projects won't work for people who build your project with any other build system. Which in turn will force more projects to use CMake anyway. Which in turn will make more people rely on CMake being used…
Use #Meson as the build system, it's clean and not designed to lock you in. Use pkg-config for library data; it's simple and portable.
