When they changed their statutes it was the first sign... now it's clear all ethics went through the window. It's about fueling the hype to drive money home.

Interesting business model. Could be a new path for at least some maintainers to be sustainably funded. Still a lot of unknowns though... probably worth keeping an eye on it.

As they say: follow the money. That gives an idea about the incentives and various agendas behind this take over.

Looks like a good set of resources for OSPO and compliance in companies.

Nice succinct form to present a strategy.

Interesting framework for sustaining a strategic train of thoughts for the long term. This can't be a fix thing, it needs to live and breather which this approach seems to foster.

Interesting take on burnout as an organizational phenomenon and the consequences. This is not simply about the amount of work.

Interesting point. It's clearly not easy to get proper feedback depending the size of the group we're reaching out to.

Very good primer on Conway's Law by Martin Fowler. Definitely recommended, obviously this is just a start and requires diving deeper in the topic.

Hear! Hear! No, moving your infrastructure to managed services doesn't make sense in all cases. You need to be in the right place in term of complexity and traffic to really benefit from it. It's less common than you'd think due to the marketing pressure.

Very interesting report although I admit I'm a bit skeptical at the strong "apolitical" message in it. This highlights very well a few challenges specific to Europe. We need to see them tackled I think. It's nice to see moves in the public sector but clearly it needs to go further and faster. Same thing regarding the creation of OSPOs in companies.

A very important and unfortunately underestimated factor for a sane and welcoming culture.

There is indeed something concerning with the current trends in the arts and entertainment. This is clearly stagnating and looking back, barely creating novelty.

Very good point of view about metrics and their use. We're unfortunately very often measuring the wrong things or using them the wrong way.

Lots of good advices about processes and organizations. It's nicely points out that friction is not necessarily wrong... if you get something out of it.
Also neat reminder in there that code review are here to complete work which is already socialized somehow. If you can't find reviewers it's a sign of an organizational problem when the work started.

Definitely this, showing care is the best thing you can do in services. Otherwise you can only do a mediocre job.

Very good set of advices in my opinion on how to prioritize product work in an organization. It very well accounts for the natural tension between sales/marketing and product/engineering.

Very good piece about honesty. It's definitely a core principle to have good communication at work. That being said it covers also all the nuances of difficult situations and how to deal with them.

Looks like an interesting approach to keep in touch with people. Doesn't seem too horrible to maintain once the first setup is done.

Interesting analysis about the likely path ahead for Intel.
