From the very beginning of this recent obsession with identifying everyone online (yes, they like to call it "age" verification, but it always ends up as identity verification), we've been pointing out that it was a huge privacy nightmare waiting to happen. Or maybe it wasn't waiting. Maybe it was already happening. This week a...

DOGE officially ended over the weekend. One of its crowning achievements was cutting $15M from the federal government’s screwworm monitoring program. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to spend $1B to combat the screwworm outbreak. "Efficiency."

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

the Python Software Foundation is foregoing a large NSF grant that would have been contingent on their agreeing to terminate their diversity and inclusion initiatives and given the feds the ability to cripple them financially for refusing to comply support them here: www.python.org/psf/donations/
Monday, October 27, 2025
The PSF has withdrawn a $1.5
million proposal to US government grant program
In January 2025, the PSF submitted a proposal to the US government National Science Foundation under the Safety, Security, and Privacy of Open Source Ecosystems program to address structural vulnerabilities in Python and PyPl. It was the PSF's first time applying for government funding, and navigating the intensive process was a steep learning curve for our small team to climb. Seth Larson, PSF Security Developer in Residence, serving as Principal Investigator (PI) with Loren Crary, PSF Deputy Executive Director, as co-Pl, led the multi-round proposal writing process as well as the months-long vetting process. We invested our time and effort because we felt the PS's work is a strong fit for the program and that the benefit to the community if our proposal were accepted was considerable.We were honored when, after many months of work, our proposal was recommended for funding, particularly as only 36% of new NSF grant applicants are successful on their first attempt. We became concerned, however, when we were presented with the terms and conditions we would be required to agree to if we accepted the grant. These terms included affirming the statement that we "do not, and will not during the term of this financial assistance award, operate any programs that advance or promote DEl, or discriminatory equity ideology in violation of Federal anti-discrimination laws." This restriction would apply not only to the security work directly funded by the grant, but to any and all activity of the PSF as a whole. Further, violation of this term gave the NSF the right to "claw back" previously approved and transferred funds.
This would create a situation where money we'd already spent could be taken back, which would be an enormous, open-ended financial risk.In the end, however, the PSF simply can't agree to a statement that we won't operate any programs that
"advance or promote" diversity, equity, and inclusion, as it would be a betrayal of our mission and our community.
We're disappointed to have been put in the position where we had to make this decision, because we believe our proposed project would offer invaluable advances to the Python and greater open source community, protecting millions of PyPl users from attempted supply-chain attacks. The proposed project would create new tools for automated proactive review of all packages uploaded to PyPl, rather than the current process of reactive-only review. These novel tools would rely on capability analysis, designed based on a dataset of known malware. Beyond just protecting PyPl users, the outputs of this work could be transferable for all open source software package registries, such as NPM and Crates.io, improving security across multiple open source ecosystems.
