It is with profound sadness that the MetaBrainz Board of Directors announces the unexpected passing of our Founder and Executive Director, Rob Kaye. Robert’s vision and leadership shaped MeB and left a lasting mark on the music industry and open source movement. blog.metabrainz.org/2026/02/24/r...

Ultimately you have to embrace the jank for a while so you don't get stuck in a local maxima that is ever drawing you in to crush you

Cloudflare just published a vibe coded blog post claiming they implemented Matrix on cloudflare workers. They didn't, their post and README is AI generated and the code doesn't do any of the core parts of matrix that make it secure and interoperable.

We're announcing Partnered Homeserver for Continuwuity, which allows interested administrators of public homeservers meeting a few basic requirements to get themselves official recognition from the project, including a place in our README and a few other things.

I'm really happy to share I'll be at #FOSDEM - I'll be giving a talk with @timedout.uk about Continuwuity on Sunday. I'll also be at the @matrix.org booth 5pm-6pm both days, if you want to track me down to chat! Schedule link: fosdem.org/2026/schedul...

What's a cool little program that you made ages ago but are still using/updating? One of mine is github.com/JadedBlueEye... - it's a desktop GUI for a unit-aware calculator so I can do all sorts of conversions on my desktop (including currency conversions)

Client ate my thread so have a meme instead

A lot of folks know me for one or two posts, and might not know I've created nine (9!) visual explanations of computer science topics, aimed at practitioners. If you're looking for things to read this Thanksgiving, I think you'll love them. Computer science is a lot of fun, when explained well. ❤️

It's on apt. It's literally on Cargo. It's on DockerHub with ads. It's literally on nuget. You can probably find it on snap. Dude it's on portage. It's a Homebrew original. It's on pacman. You can download it on nixpkgs. You can go to pkgsrc and watch it. Log onto the Windows Store right now.

What stickers you you all have?

Finally put stickers on my laptop :3

This post is worth reading regarding git. It does raise questions about the resilience of that history if it's only in GitHub pull requests, though.

TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵

Continuwuity is going vroom! Lots of cool features going on, and I'm looking forward to the stuff that's already in the next release

Hey @ash.pink, do you have any plans with github.com/juice49/json...? ATM it's incompatible with verbatimModuleSyntax, which is causing some errors for me. Wanted to fix it + add some CI, etc

#GSOC2025 🎉 Jade Ellis built a replacement for BrainzBot’s archival function – a chat archiver that natively understands and preserves Matrix’s rich features: blog.metabrainz.org/2025/09/01/g...

me, sobbing: babe you can't just point at everything and call them valid YAML documents girlfriend, pointing at my post: valid YAML document

Being a Greta Thunberg doesn't need to mean getting up on TV either, doing advocacy is important, running that project you genuinely believe the world is better off with is important. Do shit. Even when it looks impossible.

This very clearly articulates the massive incompatibility between AI as it stands and privacy and security
