They don't release / host source code unless formally asked

Mikrotik's FOSS story is as bad.

Switched to Ubiquiti, I'm quite happy except for their lack of a sane MCP.
Re:Homebrew 6.0.0 on Friday June 12, 2026 @02:45AM (#48500672)
I’ve also dropped nix-darwin for homebrew on my new m5.

Fantastic work Mike and team, though I’m still a little confused about cask upgrades.

Can I assume the UK will get Siri AI?

Re:Floci – A free, open-source local AWS emulator on Sunday March 22, 2026 @04:21AM (#47475492)
I noticed an AWS engineer publish a local AWS suite https://github.com/local-web-services/local-web-services which seems comparable.

Great to see Localstack offset a bit thanks to ... AI driven shift left infrastructure tooling? This is a great trend.

Are there successful non-AI artist platforms for works of art?

Agreed! systemd nspawn is actually pretty awesome, though not many people use it.
Yeah, an example would be good. Tbh the examples on https://d2lang.com/ don't seem to fit the bill of a typical AWS Architecture diagrams! https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/reference-architecture-d...
Timely! I just re-setup my Pi5 with the help of Claude. https://github.com/kaihendry/ai-pi

Tbh I did the mistake of throwing away Ansible, so testing my setup was a pain!

Since with AI, the focus should be on testing, perhaps it's sensible to drop Ansible for something like https://github.com/goss-org/goss

Things are happening so fast, I was impressed to see a Linux distro embrace using a SKILL.md! https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/blob/master/default/omar...

More service flows aimed at security audits
Wish there was something like Mermaid for typical AWS Architecture diagrams.

Something that doesn't suck like draw.io!
