Clearly Free Software projects will have to find a way to deal with LLM generated contributions. A very large percentage of them is leading to subtle quality issues. This also very taxing on the reviewers, and you don't want to burn them out.

Interesting ideas on how to approach teaching at the university. It gives a few clue on how to deal with chatbots during exams, can be improved but definitely a good start.
I'm not sure the legal case is completely lost even though chances are slim. The arguments here are worth mulling over though. There's really an ethical factor to consider.

Github is definitely entrenched by now. Students and beginners hardly look for projects outside of it. Sad state of affair.

This is really a big problem that those companies created for Free Software communities. Due to the lack of regulation they're going around distributing copyright removal machines and profiting from them. They should have been barred from ingesting copyleft material in the first place.
The HDMI Forum is still a bad actor for Free Software... They just don't want open source drivers to exist.
Nice little post, indeed the license is not enough to base a decision on. You need to look at the business, presence of CLA or not, etc.
Don't trust the title, it misrepresent the content in my opinion. Still the interview in interesting, it shows quite well all the effort Valve is pouring into the Free Software ecosystem.
This is getting more and more accessible. It's also one of the uses which makes sense for LLMs.
Very good move on their part. It's time more people do so. Beside, Forgejo (powering Codeberg) looks very interesting. I plan to play with it more next year.
Nice to see another game engine go the Free Software route. This one is particularly feature packed.
