»Open Source World – FOSS infrastructure is under attack by AI companies:
LLM scrapers are taking down FOSS projects' infrastructure, and it's getting worse.«

Seriously - free #strategic advice for every government: Do not build infrastructure on systems over which you have no control.

"but we have a contract"

Cool cool are you able to change business decisions within the contracted party? Probably no. You have a risk you simply cannot control or mitigate.

This is why #FOSS should be at the heart of all national digital infrastructures.

“How is Starmer's Labour so far to the economic right of Germany's incoming right-wing Chancellor?”

by Another Angry Voice on Substack

@UKLabour

“It’s quite extraordinary that the Labour Party in the UK is operating far to the economic right of Germany’s incoming right-wing government, led by probably the most right-wing figure ever to lead the CDU”

The events of the past weeks have again upped the urgency of moving away from the US tech cloud. After forever Google and 18 years GitHub this is hard for me.

I am lucky that @distribits gave me the enthusiasm and the tools to make this happen for me and the #infrastructure of the #research group I am heading.

This is the first post in a series that documents our new #selfhosted setup, starting with the centerpiece forgejo-aneksajo -- #forgejo with #gitAnnex built in.

I imagine that #WomensStudies, #GenderStudies, #NativeAmericanStudies, and other history / anthropology studies will be next on the chopping block. #BlackHistory already is!

New York's governor orders college to remove #PalestinianStudies job listing

February 28, 2025

"The job posting at Hunter College had called for a historian 'who takes a critical lens to issues pertaining to Palestine including but not limited to #SettlerColonialism, #genocide, #HumanRights, #apartheid, #migration, #climate and #infrastructure devastation, health, race, #gender, and sexuality,' according to screenshots published by the New York Post, which first reported the job announcement."

Biden administration puts $830M to helping protect #infrastructure from #climate-fueled #ExtremeWeather

"Most of the funding, $621 million, will go toward 36 projects aimed at bolstering the resilience of existing infrastructure through things like improving draining, moving roadways, and lifting up bridges.

An additional $119 million will go toward protecting, strengthening, or removing at-risk coastal infrastructure like highways."

"How disruptive would it be if GitHub started deleting repositories, or Google Scholar started hiding certain papers in response to U.S. government demands?"

Most people with some interest have seen precisely this coming for more than a decade. @neuralreckoning is among them. It's great that outlets like @thetransmitter are now also recognizing this problem and are helping to amplify these voices.

#openscience #infrastructure


YES! @neuralreckoning gets it perfectly right!

Now everybody get up and talk to your library director and/or library committee that this is what you want to happen!

I've even started to put together some lines for you to use:

Maybe you want to chime in and help make this a convincing odcument?

Ultimately, we need to start building new multi-country organizations, designed from the start to be community-run and resilient. A coalition of university libraries could be ideally placed to lead this effort, as they already have vast experience building for and supporting access to scientific data and publications. Just imagine a world in which universities mutually support one another by building scientific infrastructure based on free sharing, giving every country, from the poorest to the richest, secure access to the scientific data that can change the world for the better. This isn’t fanciful. It can happen, but we have to put the effort in, because nobody will do it for us.

Reminder issued ahead of East Yorkshire railway work http://dlvr.it/THtpVM #EastYorkshire #Goole #Infrastructure #LevelCrossing


The Tory engineered crisis in the NHS is clear in everyday waiting lists & rationing of treatment(s), but it is also perhaps even more seriously evident in the growing projected costs of repairs & maintenance delayed;

moreover, the worse cases (those with most risk of disruption to health care) are growing.... whatever else Streeting thinks will help the NHS, job No.1 has to be the repair of vital infrastructure... AI tools are no help there!

This cannot continue

#NHS #health #infrastructure
Chart: The NHS faces a growing bill to fix high-risk repairs that could cause major disruption & injury. Cost to eradicate NHS maintenance backlog by risk category (£bn in 2023-24 process)

Shows total rising from just over £6bn in 2016 to over £12bn in 2024, with the promotion in the significant or high risk categories growing at a faster rate than low & moderate risk repairs
