I agree there. They did throw out some plans around stuff like sovereign tech funds, especially ones that focus on OSS investment. An issue that myself and others brought up is the funds were focused on individuals, and the important projects are supported whether people like it or not by companies.

I was at an EU meeting on this in October. I think it’s communicated poorly but the idea is essentially to promote more open source with EU companies and citizens as maintainers. It’s as part of the bigger push for digital sovereignty that includes more data centers and commercial investment.

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

Matt Walsh tweeted last year: "We've spent the last 25 years bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to countries around the globe while our own country has been systematically invaded and now our largest cities are run by foreigners and communists. If you want to know why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist, this is why."

Then he tweeted today: ""This is a war for oil!!!!!"

First of all, the "war" lasted like 90 minutes. Second, going to war to secure vital resources for your own people is totally legitimate. Why should we allow some third world communist shithole to control trillions of dollars worth of oil?"

Laura Loomer tweeted last year: "I’m America First, I don’t support “Regime Change”. I went on @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about Chinese aggression in Venezuela and why we need to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign Islamic terrorist organization."

Then she tweeted yesterday: "Maduro has arrived at the DEA office in Manhattan. He was transported in an armored motorcade after being transported in a blindfold via helicopter & then by plane to New York after his compound in Caracas was raided by US Special Forces.

Proud to be an American today!

USA 🇺🇸"

Catturd tweeted last year: "Name one U.S. inspired regime change that hasn’t ended in absolute disaster."

Then he tweeted yesterday: "Venezuela is now more free than New York City."

Will Chamberlain tweeted last year: "The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars

If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position"

Then he tweeted yesterday: "I can think of few better uses of my tax dollars than black-bagging the head of a foreign narco-trafficking organization that enriches itself by addicting and poisoning my fellow Americans"

For a country that hates bureaucracy, all of a sudden dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s matters with stuff like immigration, and social welfare benefits.

So when the aurora borealis is faint enough, you can capture its glow with the Milky Way 😍 Berthoud Pass, CO last night

Milky Way to the left and red glow to the right above mountains with just a little snow on them in a very starry sky. I didn't use a star tracker and this was a 30 second exposure so some star trailing is visible.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents. I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

If I'm writing a personal project? I'm a little bit more flexible. If I'm working on something for my employer, I'm looking at the risks. A sandbox research project is going to go through different scrutiny than something like an online banking application.

Michael Lieberman @mikeneeds.rest · 22/06/2025

I think the way Europe is looking at this with the CRA is also something to look at. Europe says in your example it's still the responsibility of the organization consuming the OSS to ensure it meets the regulation.

Michael Lieberman @mikeneeds.rest · 22/06/2025

Open source in and of itself is just code thrown out to the public with no warranty. Some of it is good, some bad. In your example if, maybe I would look at a different project or buy it from a reputable organization instead of something with few maintainers.

Michael Lieberman @mikeneeds.rest · 22/06/2025

Yes absolutely. People leave up all sorts of stuff. Unless you are purposefully misleading folks it's up to the consumer to do some level of due diligence. I have worked at massive banks where there were policies in place to prevent including that sort of stuff.

I wonder how many people know you can install non-python code via pip and the like? I know most package managers support some level of arbitrary downloading of static content and most have also some level of arbitrary code execution on build/install.

After testing OpenAI and Gemini models on the 3 puzzle problems proposed in January on my blog, it is time to look at how Claude models answer them. Tested only versions 3 and 3.5 since I ran the scripts back in Jan, but even so the models performed quite well. More on my blog: mihai.page/ai-2025-5

mihai.page

How do Claude models perform on the 2025 AI puzzle competition?

In this article I read 2.5 million characters output by Claude models to score them on the 3 problems I proposed in the previous articles.
