I have just taken the time to thoroughly read the following article

This article has led me to the conclusion that an Open{source} War will have to be waged against LLM large language model abusers of data collection.

The work of these bots is pure DDoS denial of service. An interesting set of offensive tools have been programmed and are already implemented. They have proven to be quite effective and are being refined into sophistication to literally work to knock these networks of bots offline, in a DOT MMORPG approach.

It is unthinkable that LLM bots steal our Open Source resources servers bandwidth and financial cashflow without serious repercussions!

WTF are LLM companies thinking? Even Meta has waged war against us!

LLM has waged a brutal war.

The Open Source Community is responding; even those at The Dark Side of the internet are making tools to assist everyone against Artificial Intelligence LLM DDoS attacks, which knock whole Open Source Networks offline, as we speak.

It doesn't matter if in the end it looks like a Terminator landscape globally on the IT scale. Open source will win. LLM will disappear...

The composition is a screencap of a news article displayed on an Android device. The article's headline reads, "Open source devs say AI crawlers dominate traffic, forcing blocks on entire countries." Below the headline, a subheading states, "AI bots hungry for data are taking down FOSS sites by accident, but humans are fighting back." The author's name, Benj Edwards, and the publication date, March 25, 2025, are displayed, along with the time, 6:36 PM, and the number of comments, 147. The article's first paragraph discusses a software developer named Xe laso, who reached a breaking point when aggressive AI crawler traffic from Amazon overwhelmed their Git repository service, causing instability and downtime. Despite configuring standard defensive measures, such as adjusting robots.txt and blocking known crawler user-agents, the issue persisted. The image accompanying the article shows a person sitting on a floral-patterned couch, working on a laptop. The person is partially submerged in water, with their legs visible above the waterline. The background includes a bookshelf with books and a potted plant, and the person is wearing a dark top and blue jeans with rolled-up cuffs. The credit for the image is given to Henrik Sorensen via Getty Images. Ovis2-8B 🌱 Energy used: 0.299 Wh

I added some more cool things to my grimoire! reillyspitzfaden.com/code/#gri

I have interactions on Mastodon/Bluesky coming in as webmentions, and that's nice, but other sources get lost in the shuffle, so I have a script here (github.com/reillypascal/person) that filters out all the ones where "wm-source" contains "brid.gy/," which is super helpful.

I wrote a little helper function to quickly handle Bash jobs.

Because typing out `jobs` and `fg %1` quickly gets tedious.

Now I can just run `j` and press one or two keys to bring a job to the foreground or background.

Reminder: don't tell me about screen, tmux, etc. I already know.

Made a few updates and released a new version of #calliope , a #bash script based utility to write a journal using #LaTeX. Since it's #LaTeX based, you can pretty much add whatever you wish to your journal---images, other PDFs, beautiful maths, and of course, you can customise it as you wish to suit your needs. It's all managed by #Git and if you'd like you can encrypt your journal entries using #gpg

Check it out on #GitHub : github.com/sanjayankur31/calli

Yes you have seen it correctly, I'm now including __links__ the sh & console based browser, in my workflow, since it uses few resources, doesn't understand many of the modern languages, which results in pleasure and fun on the internet. You can even use links on a serial console like my Wyse terminal!

An Adblock is not need in this modus operandi.

The places which are properly coded, do not need even JavaScript are where I frequently get my information from

The image shows a computer screen displaying a DuckDuckGo search page for "joe sample." in links, the sh console based browser The page is in a dark theme, with the DuckDuckGo logo at the top. The search bar is filled with "joe sample," and the search button is visible. Below the search bar, there is a "Zero-click info" section that provides a brief summary of Joe Sample, an American jazz keyboardist and composer. The summary mentions his role as a founding member of The Jazz Crusaders in 1960, the group's name change to "The Crusaders" in 1971, and his involvement in the group until its final album in 1991 and a 2003 reunion album called "Rural Renewal."

This Saturday as part of the Everyday Algorithms exhibition: Reimagine your relationship with machines in this workshop to produce queer love letters using Bash scripting with @siusoon and Mara Karagianni. 💌

📅 Saturday 5 April
⏰ 12pm — 3pm
📍The NewBridge Project, #Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 1AL

This workshop aims to challenge the gender norms in free software development. We will begin with a cultural introduction to Unix and #Bash, exploring how they interact with the operating system. Bash, a command line interface and scripting language created in 1989 for UNIX Systems, is useful for system administration and automation. 💾

During the workshop, you will use the terminal, either in pairs, in groups, or individually, to write and create a #queer love letter in Bash. These letters will explore various forms of desire, intimacy, and struggle, allowing us to reimagine what our relationship with the machines we use might look like. ❤️‍🔥

셸 언어는 때로 추하길 요구 받는다

hackers.pub/@hongminhee/2025/s

Hackers' Pub · 셸 언어는 때로 추하길 요구 받는다명령줄 인터페이스(CLI)는 컴퓨터와 상호작용하는 가장 오래된 방식 중 하나다. 그리고 이 인터페이스를 지배하는 것은 셸 언어다. 그런데 흥미로운 점은 셸 언어가 일반적인 프로그래밍 언어들과는 상당히 다른 설계 철학을 따른다는 것이다. 한 마디로 요약하자면, 셸 언어는 때로 “추함”을 받아들여야 한다.간결함의 미학 Bash나 zsh와 같은 전통적인 셸을 보자. grep -r "error" /var/log | wc -l와 같은 명령은 암호처럼 보일 수 있지만, 타이핑하는 데 몇 초밖에 걸리지 않는다. 이러한 간결함은 우연히 생긴 것이 아니다. 셸 환경에서는 사용자가 빠르게 입력하고, 결과를 확인하고, 다시 명령을 수정하는 반복적인 워크플로우가 일반적이다. 여기서 핵심은 “대화형” 경험이다.PowerShell의 딜레마 PowerShell은 마이크로소프트가 셸의 개념을 재정의하려 한 야심찬 시도였다. 객체 지향적 파이프라인, 일관된 동사–명사 구문, 그리고 자세한 매개변수 이름 등은 모두 코드의 가독성과 유지보수성을 높이기 위한 설계였다. 그러나 다음 명령을 비교해보자: Bash:find . -name "*.log" -mtime -7 \ | xargs grep "error" \ | sort \ | uniq -c<PowerShell:Get-ChildItem -Path . -Filter *.log ` | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -gt (Get-Date).AddDays(-7)} ` | ForEach-Object {Select-String -Path $_.FullName -Pattern "error"} ` | Sort-Object ` | Group-Object ` | Select-Object Name,Count<PowerShell의 명령은 더 명확하고 자기 설명적이지만, 대화형 셸에서 빠르게 실험하고 반복하기에는 너무 장황하다. PowerShell 설계자들은 “추함”을 견디지 못하고 너무 많은 “다림질”을 해버린 것이다.균형점 찾기 흥미롭게도 최근의 Nushell 같은 현대적인 셸은 이 교훈을 받아들이고 있다. 구조화된 데이터 처리와 같은 PowerShell의 장점을 가져오면서도, 대화형 사용에 필요한 간결함을 유지하려 노력한다. 셸 언어의 진정한 성공은 “아름다운 코드”와 “효율적인 상호작용” 사이의 균형에 달려 있다. 이는 때로 완벽한 문법이나 일관성보다는 실용적인 “추함”을 수용해야 함을 의미한다.결론 프로그래밍 언어의 세계에서는 우아함과 일관성이 미덕이다. 그러나 셸의 세계에서는 타이핑 효율성, 속도, 그리고 대화형 적합성이 우선시된다. 이것이 바로 셸 언어가 때로 “추함”을 요구받는 이유다. PowerShell의 제한적인 성공은 이 기본적인 진실을 간과한 데서 비롯된 것일지도 모른다. 그리고 어쩌면 이것은 소프트웨어 설계 전반에 걸친 더 깊은 교훈을 담고 있다: 모든 도구는 그 사용 맥락에 맞게 설계되어야 한다는 것이다. 셸 언어에서는 그 맥락이 바로 키보드와 사용자 사이의 빠른 대화다.

It's possible you've not heard of #boxyBSD

I was lucky to get a TIL moment when @stefano boosted it's existence into my feed.

However you should know about it, learn something about the user perspective from proxmox in the process, while working with a boxyBSD VM.

Here are some nice screencaps of the boxyBSD site so you can ask nicely for a VM and learn to play with one of the *BSD flavours from a distance.

I'm sure you can duckduckgo the address of boxyBSD when you analyze the screencaps, right?

🖋️ #bash #proxyLB #freeBSD #boxyBSD #sh #zsh #ksh #csh #netBSD #openBSD #POSIX #proxmox #loadbalancer

THe screencap displays a black background with white text, featuring a terminal interface. At the top, the text "BoxyBSD" is prominently displayed in a stylized font. Below this, a command line reads "guest[@]mgmt-boxybsd-5:~$ cat services.txt," indicating a user named "guest" is executing a command to display the contents of a file named "services.txt." The text in the file describes a platform offering free virtual machines (VMs) for learning and practicing BSD-based systems and open-source projects. It specifies that the VMs come with IPv6-only networking, 1 CPU, 1 GB of RAM, and 10 GB of disk space. The network configuration includes an IPv6 subnet of 64/48 availability. The operating systems available are FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, MidnightBSD, DragonflyBSD, and OpenIndiana. The text also mentions that new boxes can only be registered by the BoxyBSD bot in their Matrix channel, with more information available on the website. Additional services offered include DNS, email, web hosting, runners, and shared shell, with a note encouraging users to contact for further information.
shows a web browser window displaying the BoxyBSD.com website. The background of the webpage is black, with white text and a logo in the center. The logo reads "BoxyBSD" in a stylized font. Below the logo, there is a section titled "Info" with a paragraph describing BoxyBSD as a non-profit initiative and hosting provider dedicated to supporting the BSD community. The paragraph mentions that BoxyBSD offers free virtual machine hosting, email hosting, and web hosting solutions to help enthusiasts, students, and professionals gain hands-on experience in system administration, networking, and security without financial barriers. The text is in a monospace font, and the website's URL is visible at the top of the page. The browser's address bar shows the URL "https://boxybsd.com" and the page title "BoxyBSD.com 1.0-RELEASE (GENERIC) boxybsd.com/". The browser's tabs and bookmarks are visible at the top, with some of the tabs showing names like "MX Blog," "MX Forum," and "OpenVPN - Debian Wiki." The bottom of the page includes a copyright notice for 2025.

It has arrived. proxyLB v1.1.0 the loadbalancer for proxmox clusters. Instead of telling you the features of this major version I invite you to read about it yourself, download proxyLB then play with it.

As with any great Open Source project, this has grown out of a necessity that @gyptazy has for his other amazing project boxyBSD, which just needs a versatile tool like this.

Now go and play.

The navigation bar at the top includes options for "ABOUT," "BLOG," "TALKS," "PROJECTS," and "SKILLS."
The image shows a screenshot of a personal blog post by a user named "gyptazy," who is identified as a developer. The post is titled "April, April! No, even it's the first of April – this is real!" and announces the release of ProxLB 1.1.0. The post is dated mid-2024 and highlights the project's journey, mentioning that it was sponsored by credativ GmbH, allowing the author to work on it during work hours. The post emphasizes the significant milestone of the latest version, which includes a complete code refactor, improved load balancing behavior, and numerous bug fixes, making ProxLB more stable and capable than ever. The author explains that ProxLB was created as a straightforward load balancing solution for Proxmox clusters for their BoxyBSD project, similar to VMware's DRS. Additionally, several customers at credativ GmbH requested DRS-like features when migrating to Proxmox. The blog post is displayed on a dark background with text in white and orange, and navigation tabs at the top include "ABOUT," "BLOG," "TALKS," "PROJECTS," and "SKILLS."

I am in urgent job search mode, so I'm gonna throw this out here and see if anything comes of it.

I am a #Canadian, fluent in both #English and #French. I have experience with several programming languages. My strongest proficiency is with #Haskell and #C. I also have a reasonable grasp of #HTML, #JavaScript, #SQL, #Python, #Lua, #Linux system administration, #bash scripting, #Perl, #AWK, some #Lisp (common, scheme, and emacs), and probably several others I've forgotten to mention.

I am not necessarily looking for something in tech. I just need something stable. I have done everything from software development, to customer support, to factory work, though my current circumstances make in-person work more difficult than remote work. I have been regarded as a hard worker in every job I have ever held.
