  5. RE: fosstodon.org/@everythingopen/

    Soooooo, I'll be hosting the Kernel Development specialist track at next years Everything Open conference!

    Inspired by the Kernel Development track at ye olde linux.conf.au, this will cover open source kernel development, operating system infrastructure & research, new hardware, platform bringup, tooling and all that fun stuff. While there'll be a strong component of Linux involved, I'm super keen to include any and all open source OS implementations too.

    The Call for Presentations for #EverythingOpen2027 will be out soon - this would be a great chance to talk about that new kernel thing you've been all excited about, so be sure to get a talk proposal submitted!

    If you're new to speaking, or to #EverythingOpen, please feel free to get in touch, I would love to be able to share a few pointers (pun definitely intended).

  19. tridge has written a post about the recent #rsync issues:

    rsync and outrage

    medium.com/@tridge60/rsync-and

    pls at least read his post before commenting on this toot
     
     
    like most non-trivial things in life, tech, & especially security, my thoughts on this are… “it’s complicated”
     
     
    I’m only tenuously connected to tridge via the #LinuxConfAU / #EverythingOpen community, but his reputation is the stuff of F/LOSS nerd legend – I was in the room for his #LCA2015 talk in Auckland, Flying with Linux, where he did a live demo of #ArduPilot controlling an RC aircraft in Canberra (AU) with real-time telemetry from the aircraft that was also compiling the Linux kernel while in-flight… 🤯

    YouTube: youtu.be/2Twl2mQAh6g

    LA mirror: mirror.linux.org.au/pub/linux.

    in the post, tridge argues that he is able to bring his (undisputed) expertise in software design & development to find ways use LLMs (relatively) safely to assist with specific coding tasks. I think that’s probably true, even given the regression bugs introduced in the most recent version of rsync – and it may even be the pragmatic least-worst way for open source maintainers to try to deal with the current deluge of LLM-assisted (or entirely LLM-generated) security reports currently overwhelming many open source projects

    but most software devs are not on tridge’s level, and are already using #LLMs as coding assistants in unsafe and unpredictable ways (or just wholesale vibe-coding things without regard for building guardrails at all)

    tridge also points out that he is technically retired and would rather be out sailing than working on maintaining rsync. a very possible outcome from all this might be that he decides to just… walk away and let others pick up the slack (he did note that the silver lining is that a couple of other experienced devs are – at least for now – working on the project)
     
     
    but even if everyone using LLMs to generate code was supervising it closely with very-experienced-software-design-and-development-level skills (they’re definitely not), I still don’t think that would justify or offset the enormous ethical, environmental, & social issues with the creation & use of LLMs

    like I said, #ItsComplicated 💁‍♀️

  21. @Unixbigot Oh yeah, I put that one in the #EverythingOpen talk. It looks nice and simple. The main problem with from my perspective it is the insanely expensive picolitre pump hanging off the blunt end. Plus unclogging a blocked nozzle is a bugger of a job. Probably is for mosquitoes too mind...

  23. Jon Oxer of SuperHouse spoke with me at #EverythingOpen about doing a livestream of him building a #RepRapMicron #3Dprinter. Well, it's this Sunday NZ/Aus time: youtube.com/live/9y5YsKGFets

    Boy is the documentation wiki due for a shakedown!

    I shall lurk in the background.

  29. Hello #introduction! I made this account after attending #everythingopen as I'm finally convinced to get into the fediverse. I will be tooting about obscure computer history and the nitty gritty of various topics related to secure computing, electronics and embedded systems
