Vague infringement allegations considered harmful
Ensuring that software copyright allegations are specific and actionable benefits the entire developer ecosystem. That’s why GitHub submitted a “friend of the court” brief in the SAS Institute, Inc. v. World Programming Ltd. case before a Federal Court of Appeals. ⌘ Read more
Docker is Updating and Extending Our Product Subscriptions
Docker is used by millions of developers to build, share, and run any app, anywhere, and 55% of professional developers use Docker every day at work. In these work environments, the increase in outside attacks on software supply chains is accelerating developer demand for Docker’s trusted content, including Docker Official Images and Docker Verified Publisher […]

Snikket: Improving Snikket’s usability in collaboration with Simply Secure
One of the primary goals of the Snikket project is improving the usability of
open communication software. We see usability as one of the major barriers to
broader adoption of modern communication systems based on open standards and
free, libre, open-source software. By removing this barrier, we open the door
of secure and decentralized communication freedom to many vulnerable groups
for which it was previously inaccessible or i … ⌘ Read more

A screenshot of a very tiny c program written on System7
I’ve got to use macOS by nature of my work. Lately I’m increasingly down on this. Here I will not re-hash anything about the current state of Apple’s hardware and software ecosystem. I don’t care.
Wanting to take a trip down nostolgia lane, however (to when I was 2 years old) I thought I’d install Mac OS System 7. What follows is a quick guide for doing the sa … ⌘ Read more
Building a healthy and secure software supply chain
Securing the software supply chain is now an everyday concern for developers. As attackers increasingly target open-source components as a way to compromise the software supply chain, developers hold the keys to making their projects as secure as they can be. That’s why Docker continues to invest heavily in our developer tools like Docker Desktop […]

Matrix vs. XMPP
XMPP and Matrix are two decentralized and federated free sofware projects for chat, including true end-to-end encrypted chat.
Users can either install the software on their own server if they want, but they can also easily register on any public server—both allow any XMPP or Matrix user to talk to users on their server or on any other one. In essence, it works like email: you might have an em … ⌘ Read more

My searx instance has changed domains
For those that use my SearX instance (which was formerly searx.lukesmith.xyz, I have now relocated it to searx.cedars.xyz, so if you use it as a default search engine, remember to change its url.
For those who don’t know what SearX is, it’s a metasearch engine that polls whatever search engines you want and aggregates the results. It is free software that can be installed by anyone on any server.

Please stop recommending JavaScript programs to me. They’re bad enough in a browser, let alone as a piece of dedicated software.
My blog system now has tagging (all pure POSIX shell of course)
This isn’t live on the old blog system’s Github, but partially inspired by by Based Cooking’s tag system which is based on blogit, I’ve added in the feature to tag articles.

Programs and Equipment I Use
After many requests, here are the programs I use for everything. I’m only putting here programs I consider tried and true and have used for a while.
I’m about getting things done quickly and having as little space between my thoughts and actions on the computer.
I like having vim-like bindings and prefer running programs in the terminal for simplicity’s sake. That said, I’m very much against the cringey meme that things … ⌘ Read more
Why I Use the GPL and Not Cuck Licenses
Every piece of software I write I license under the GNU Public License Version 3 (GPLv3) unless I have forked it from something else.
The GPLv3 is the premiere copyleft license, meaning that it not only allows users to run, modify and distribute their own versions of what I write, but it also requires that no one in that chain of development restrict and close-source that software: it and sof … ⌘ Read more

don’t get me wrong, I love the power of emacs. but it’s a very complex piece of software, which is inherrently brittle. not a problem in the short term, but for some of my more long term tools it’s a consideration.

Are employees paid a proportional amount to the value they bring to their organization? I would say no. I do not believe every talented European is 40% as capable as the average developer in the US. I do not believe that the same software engineer that made $10k in India, suddenly brings 10x as much value due to a 1 year masters, once they move to the US.

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Doing everything in the browser is indeed terrible. But I have to admit that e.g. jitsi-meet for a/v conferences is pretty neat. You just share the link and password and everybody can join without installing and configuring a new software.
