I have a serious illness: chronic CLI. It's terminal.

🍺 Talk Spotlight: @ivanov is bringing the legendry with "Pun Intended Consequences", a hilarious romp through SciPy history, lightning talks, and the absurd wisdom that shaped our community 😄 #SciPy2026 🔗 scipy2026.scipy.org

I went to a meetup up at @DoorDash on Friday, so it's amusing to find this "TEST TEST TEST [pulse 2022.07.28.19.59.32]" restaurant and 4 others, next door to "Mx Menu Demoooooo1231245"

@jrosell This continues an odious trend in open source where people make comments like “I won’t consider your project unless you satisfy my demands”. Been dealing with this nonstop for 15 years. Giving away my labor for free and still getting criticized for it

@DNAutics that's jacked up!

did not have "use a car jack to partially reassemble a lab i own" on my life bingo card.

Stay awhile and listen.

"Nothing's immortal, except maybe COBOL" - Chuck Harris at #scipy2025 This was just one of the gems at his lovely keynote: My Dinner with Numeric, Numpy, and Scipy: A Retrospective from 2001 to 2025 with Comments and Anecdotes.

The voice of reason seldom loudest in the room.

Projects without such a direct approach are open to drifting and sliding into a post-legal world. It doesn't matter what license they use, as they lack the means to assert their own license due to a lack of provenance of their incoming contributions. 5/5

In particular, in no uncertain terms it should reject contribution that utilized any of the popular tools in use today, which includes GitHub CoPilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Llama, Mistral, Replit Code, StarCoder, CodeLLama. 4/5

Any project that accepts code generated by tools violating license terms dilute & invalidate their own license. These include all automated tools in use today, as even training sets that exclude GPL nevertheless violate terms of BSD & MIT licenses which require attribution. 1/5
