The EU's sovereignty framework scores Open Source at roughly 4%. It should be a prerequisite, not a rounding error. dri.es/the-sovereignt… #OpenSource #DigitalSovereignty

Drupal 12 will use Argon2id for password hashing by default. Existing passwords migrate automatically on next login. Most site owners never think about password hashing, so getting the defaults right matters most. 🛡️🎯💪 dri.es/drupal-12-swit…

@matthewtift wrote a beautiful post about the Quiet Room at DrupalCon and why pausing matters, especially at a conference where everything moves fast. Worth a read. matthewtift.com/blog/quiet-roo… #drupal #drupalcon

This morning I made a small change to my site: I made every page available as Markdown for AI agents and crawlers. I expected maybe a trickle. Within an hour, I was seeing hundreds of requests from ClaudeBot, GPTBot, and OpenAI’s SearchBot. 😲 dri.es/the-third-audi…

Tailwind Labs laid off 75% of its engineering team. AI isn’t killing open source though. It’s stress-testing business models built on "describable things". I wrote more about what this means for developer tools and where durable value lives: dri.es/ai-is-a-busine…
