What does it really take to fund and execute a successful security audit in open source?

In this newly released talk from the Open Source Summit North America, FreeBSD Foundation Executive Director Deb Goodkin and Alpha-Omega’s Michael Winser walk through the full lifecycle of FreeBSD’s third-party audit—from funding and planning to outcomes and lessons learned.

Why do people create wild languages like Brainfuck, Piet, or INTERCAL? 🤔💻
Because sometimes code isn't about practicality—it’s about expression 🎭💡

Esolangs—esoteric programming languages—are creative experiments that:

・ Stretch the limits of logic and syntax
・ Inspire new perspectives in programming
・ Serve as art, satire, and technical puzzles
・ Sometimes offer real insights (like Alice or Hexagony)

While most are impractical, their spirit fuels innovation and curiosity in IT Ops, cybersecurity, and beyond 🔐🌐

WIRED · Esoteric Programming Languages Are Fun—Until They Kill the JokeVon Sheon Han

Jakub Jurkiewicz and I have been talking for a while about creating an event that feels a little different — less about broadcasting ideas, and more about building them together.

We’re calling it BEACON

🧭 It’s a one-day event for technical leaders
🎤 Talks in the morning to spark ideas
🤝 An unconference in the afternoon to go deeper, together

🌱 Theme: sustainable evolution — thoughtful, ongoing change in teams and systems

📆 When: 13th October 2025
🗺️ Where: Auckland

The event will be catered and ticketed (price TBC)
We’re adding to the ecosystem with something more participatory.

Google DocsBeacon is coming - are you interested?Beacon - Shining a light on the future of tech leadership. A gathering for tech leaders who want to create the future together. Part talks, part open sessions, part guided discussion. No fluff. No hype. Just space to connect, ask deep questions, and shape what’s next. When: 13th October 2025 Where: Auckland Organisers: Jakub Jurkiewicz (Tech Waka), Andrea Magnorsky (Model Bridge, Virtual DDD) Sustainable evolution happens at the intersection of systems, teams, and intent. BEACON is a one-day event for leaders working across engineering, product, architecture, and people practices — anyone responsible for shaping how technology organisations evolve. The morning features six expert speakers, sharing frameworks, success stories and failures around leading with intention: from system migration to culture rewiring. The afternoon is an unconference — participant-led and peer-driven, focused on real problems and impactful conversations. If you're navigating change with technical depth and human nuance, BEACON is for you. This event will be catered and ticketed (TBC amount).

🚪 Companies that ignore internal talent, underpay contributors, and mask systemic issues with perks like unlimited PTO are quietly bleeding out innovation and morale.

New article on why “quick fixes” and faux-flexibility are costing more than you think. 💸

www.webuters.comAI Adoption: [6] Proven Steps for Business Success - WebutersFor business leaders, AI adoption feels like standing at the edge of a new frontier. Everyone says it’s important. And yet, taking that first step feels uncertain.

AI Groundwork == Automation.
Automate or Fossilize.

There's a delightful little study from McKinsey - they say automation boosts productivity by ~40%, slashes costs by ~50%.
But sure, keep doing your 17-step manual deployment and team standups to plan the next team standup.

Companies keep adding more agility, more process, more micromanagement, more Team Members.
Like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, but with Jira tickets.
All in a glorious effort… Not to solve root causes.

Here’s the raw truth:
If your competitor automates first,
lowers prices,
scales like a virus on caffeine…
You're toast. Gluten-free if that makes you feel better.

You can't catch up.
Not when your developers are duct-taping new features onto a legacy monolith that’s older than half your interns.
You don't need more meetings.
You need fewer humans doing robotic work, and more humans solving human problems.

Let's make one thing painfully clear:
Automation isn't optional. It's not a feature, it's the operating system of survival.

You can't do anything wrong by starting automation.
You can only oversleep, drool on your quarterly reports, and wake up with a competitor eating your market share like cold pizza at 3 AM.

I've automated entire teams in the past.
Poof. Gone.
Their tasks now done better, faster, without needing coffee, motivation, or "mental health days".
Deploy with a button?
Yes. It exists.
You're welcome.

Automation reduced our tech stack. Fewer tools, fewer errors, fewer prayers to the CI/CD gods.

Now ask yourself:
What does your company really sell?
Disney sells memories.
Apple sells innovation.
Nike sells ambition.
Amazon sells comfort.

And you?
Random metrics? Profit graphs?
A slowly dying system wrapped in buzzwords?

Automate.
Not for the "Future".
For next quarter.
Or don't.
Just make peace with your fate as a beautifully inefficient relic.

What does it have to do with AI? Well, you need free resources to include AI into your company and not just add it somewhere.
