And as usual I am asking #FOSDEM community for any updates to my "How to survive FOSDEM" post.
Since I wrote it 5 years ago it post with biggest amount of changes. Each year many people read it. Many times during event I was thanked for it.
So if you see some outdated info there then please reply.
Boost for visibility.

#InfoSec #NixOS #FOSDEM2024Remediating thousands of untracked security vulnerabilities in #nixpkgs
https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-1983-remediating-thousands-of-untracked-security-vulnerabilities-in-nixpkgs/
Through vendoring, many packages in #nixpkgs end up including obsolete and vulnerable versions of their dependencies. This is especially prevalent for #Rust, #Go, #JavaScript, #Java and #DotNET software using strict lockfiles. How bad is the current situation really? What can #nixpkgs contributors do to improve it? -
@eliasr Yes, we have talked a lot about how to use this new leverage, here in gbg since that #fosdem2024 talk.

No-one would have believed it if we posted this yesterday, so today we are announcing that Eclipse #Temurin 21 and 22 are available as a GA headless release on #RISCV! #openjdk #java

💡 Did you know that the sources of #AI software are protected by licenses like all the other software? 🤔

My "SemVer in Rust" talk from @fosdem is now available as a blog post!
I used the "annotated talk" format pioneered by @simon to make it easy to skim the material, skip ahead, and jump between the written post and the video.
Enjoy, and let me know what you think!

The good part is that my recognized value with my #FOSS work, finally has hardened enough within me, that it keeps the self-doubt away. So when I get rejected from giving a conference talk about AI (as is what happened with #fosdem2024 ) or having my right to belong to something like #Nivenly constantly challenged, I can remind, nay, *prove* to myself that I am actually worth it, but the system has always been rigged against neurodivergent people from the start.

#COBOL, that obsolete language that's been supposed to "die in 5 years" for 65 years ? With over 800 billion lines of code (according to a Micro Focus study), it's like the Highlander of programming languages.
But, being a paragon of the closed model, there are #opensource projects to follow, such as the #GnuCOBOL compiler. Here is a presentation of the project at #FOSDEM2024 (@fosdem) by Fabrice LE FESSANT and Simon SOBISCH 🦕

At #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2024 there was a talk which suggested that @fedora wasn't doing much in the #reproducibleBuilds space. Here's Davide Cavalca talking at #Scale21x about why it's important and what the project is doing in the space ;-)

@nuccitheboss @kenvandine Great Q&A session!
I watched the live stream of @kenvandine 's Q&A session, was great, that he left near 30 min for Q&A.
When I gave this talk on #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2024 I got only a 25-min slot and they showed me the "still XX min" cards too late so that I did not have time for Q&A, only a hallway session afterwards.
On #GUADEC #GUADEC2024, if they accept my #UbuntuCoreDesktop talk, I will get a 40 min slot and I will give the same 25-min talk as I did on FOSDEM ...

At @fosdem I gave a talk on why SemVer in #rustlang is so hard, and how cargo-semver-checks can help.
An A/V glitch caused 10min of the recording to be lost, so I made an updated video 👇
Here's a peek at what you'll learn in the talk 🧵

@ErictheCerise it's very easy to configure - I run it on the same host as mastodon and pixelfed via nginx without any problems.
I only installed recently, so not had to upgrade it yet.As for local storage, supposedly you can use s3 storage with peertube, and some clever people have created an s3-compatible storage thing called garage: https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/
There's a good #fosdem2024 video explaining it here: https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/fosdem/2024/k3201/fosdem-2024-3009-advances-in-garage-the-low-tech-storage-platform-for-geo-distributed-clusters.av1.webm

Today's Prague #pythonpizza is nearing its end and it's a very pleasant experience overall - the form of really short 10 minutes long talks works amazingly well - I have a lot of links to interesting projects and tools for later study 😻
Big thanks to all organizers!
