This is the mitigation for Alpine Linux https://fosstodon.org/@alpinelinux/117563196640515820
The first beta version for Mastodon 5.0 is now available!
After testing it on mastodon.social for a few weeks, we believe that this version is stable enough to be deployed by others, so if you like testing our new things feel free to install this beta version and report any bugs your find on GitHub or our community forum (https://community.joinmastodon.org/)
We expect the final release to happen within the next 2-3 weeks.
Release notes and upgrade instructions here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v5.0.0-beta.1
@MastodonEngineering oh damn so you're really gonna ship "Advanced Web UI" like that?
OpenSSH has a vuln which allows logging in without a password. A thread.

It only impacts Linux distributions which ship with musl libc and PAM disabled. I think that is just Alpine Linux (all versions) and Void Linux.
It doesn’t impact Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE, Redhat or CentOS. Nor OpenWrt.

It’s wild that just the thumbnail alone can tell you it’s vibe-coded.

If the author’s profile is any indication, it’s likely Harmony was written using AI:

It was. And they’ve also erased its generated disclosures.

Okay, only one person accused me of using AI because of my productivity, but still.
I write php and use mysql, I'm a hippie bruh
it's not like there is some secret society that wants to maintain PHP as the dominant fediverse language for all eternity or something.
that would be cray
@openstreetmap so will you be renaming the lake now?
The OpenStreetMap Foundation does not control OpenStreetMap, we don't decide on the names of lakes. OSMF is only here to support OSM not to control it. Our community are the ones who make these decisions. You can find out more here: https://community.openstreetmap.org/
@booteille @gee avec plaisir !

Anyone know about Harmony (ActivityPub chat like Discord)?
Federated social app: Discord-style servers and chat with ActivityPub.

I don’t remember hearing of it till now, yet it claims a lot of desired features. Github page shows only one contributor, one fork, 44 stars; lot of commits in the last week, oldest 3 years ago; GNU Affero General Public Licence v3.0.

Maths pals, are any of you using or working on a live captioning system that is good at maths?
The three texts about AI coding I recommend the most:
1. Computer Power and Human Reason, by Joseph Weizenbaum
2. Ironies of Automation, by Lisanne Bainbridge
3. Extreme Programming Explained, by Kent Beck

Hi, I got a couple questions that aren’t answered on your transparency page yet.
- Has AI been used to create this?
- Two AI communities are on top of your communities list. Your terms talk about preventing AI scraping, yet your platform seems to welcome “AI founders”. How does this go together?
- Where is the source code?
- Your terms talk about monetization through Normals Plus. Can you elaborate on this?

Yes. They could just not set them at all in the published source, and just set them in their deployment. They are at least dishonest about the reasons for keeping the source closed, which is sad.
