GIMP has again been accepted as part of the Google Summer of Code project - see the link for details and some project ideas.
We have a no-AI policy: in particular we need people who will understand the code they write :-) and write code that we can maintain.
Feel free to get in touch - see https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html

@ricciRob Ricci have a read of Lauren's article: https://connectedplaces.online/where-does-community-live/
Yes, community on AT Protocol is a nascent concept still, but the separation of identity + data from applications makes it possible to experiment and have one social graph or many.
One project doing community spaces on AT Protocol is: https://github.com/collectivesocial/open-social

Introducing Claude Code Security, now in limited research preview.
It scans codebases for vulnerabilities and suggests targeted software patches for human review, allowing teams to find and fix issues that traditional tools often miss.

You think web page size bloat is bad on some things? oh boy.
Good afternoon to everyone, except bumn.go.id (an Indonesian government website) for having a (at least) 3GB web page because of embedded MP4's with uncompressed audio and video seeming straight from the camera...
This must cost so much for them, like a single page load could cost at least $0.15 in cloud egress fees alone

Sup is meant for those who use Snapchat, Whatsapp and Messenger daily, but also brings a clean and refined experience to people who prefer other protocols.
The modular nature of Sup separates identity from protocols to connect you to your people, wherever they are, with push notifications, dark mode, and even video chat!
This should exist, but it would be difficult to grow from scratch...
Unless you had two platforms you could integrate with first class support.

Mekka's take on the methodological implications on the (lack of) cross-tabs on this study are on point, but there's another thing to look at here: our definition of "platforming". So much discussion of "platforming" is conducted from the perspective of "are these ideas dangerous, is it OK to let people hear these dangerous ideas". That's not what is happening. The speech acts involved are not "conveying ideas" and letting people analyze them.
Reading a post that predicts redundancy of 50% of white collar jobs in the next 5 years due to AI. This is a pro-AI post. Ignoring what seems to me some questionable reasoning, the author does not seem to acknowledge that this may have some pretty negative effects on a societal level.
Researchers discovered 26 new microbial species in ancient Alaskan permafrost, hoping their frost-fighting chemistry could help soldiers and civilians alike survive extreme cold.

Donkeys: We’ve got some sorrows you could ease.
Me: Oh yeah?
Donkeys: Yeah, like, we broke one of our toys and one of us has probably swallowed a large piece of it, but you could get us a new one. And then maybe call the vet.

One way to know Claude is a joke is it can’t even get right questions about itself. Asked it how could I tell it to stop asking if it could do any read operation on a directory. It told me how to configure it. I asked it the change needed restarting or if it would pick it up. It told me it would pick it up, there was no need to restart, changes were immediately. After asking several times for more permissions and I insisting to not ask, it finally admitted it required a restart.

new from me: FR#154 - Search and Community
@HolosSocial shut down their fediverse search engine, over concerns that some users have the flag for being indexable turned on without consciously enabling it.
If the consent flag Holos relied on frequently doesn't represent consent, that's a problem, because Mastodon's FASP project relies on the same.
