I'm giving up maintainership of the #Subsurface dive log package on #Flathub. There is a too wide gap between how it is developed and what Flathub/Flatpak expects, and I still can't use the Flathub version with my own dive computer because there are Bluetooth issues I have no idea how to debug.

I cannot justify investing more time on an application I use at most three times a year. Especially when the official #AppImage just works.

I have a #GitHub question (I am a GitHub newbie, but familiar with other repos like SVN):

I’d like to see others’ code on GitHub but I feel weird about pull requests to accounts of people I don’t know.

Is there etiquette around this?

For context: I’m autistic and this is the kind of thing I’ll screw up IF there are unwritten rules! But a lecturer on my masters course recommended I explore others’ coding solutions on GitHub. I just feel so weird actually doing this!

A really interesting article about using open source in the government. In this case it's Mexico. Nice to see that good things are also happening. Congratulations to González Waite for pushing open source software in the government!

It's crazy that when you stop using a proprietary software product you get called by the U.S. embassy with threats. Obviously it is free economy /s

3 daily habits that will improve your sleep…

I previously mentioned 3 fundamentals for getting great sleep based on your mattress, pillow and duvet…

These 3 daily habits will compound the effects of those fundamentals…

🟢 Do some form of daily exercise. Just be careful not to do it too close to bedtime, as your increased core body temperature will likely keep you awake.

The benefit of #AI in #softwaredevelopment is absurd.

They want to automate junior positions, with the notion that the remaining developers will be more efficient.

This totally ignores the fact that the workforce is transient, it requires the continuous upskilling and turnover of new people.

By replacing the intake of new #developers with #software, we are foregoing the #development of more senior and advanced professionals.

The expertise AI gives is not equivalent to a skilled professional.
