Opensource

definition: https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition

endorsements: https://opensource.org/ai/endorsements

In particular, which tools meet the requirements and which ones don't:

As part of our validation and testing of the OSAID, the volunteers checked whether the Definition could be used to evaluate if AI systems provided the freedoms expected.

• The list of models that passed the Validation phase are: Pythia (Eleuther AI), OLMo (AI2), Amber and CrystalCoder (LLM360) and T5 (Google).
• There are a couple of others that were analyzed and would probably pass if they changed their licenses/legal terms: BLOOM (BigScience), Starcoder2 (BigCode), Falcon (TII).
• Those that have been analyzed and don't pass because they lack required components and/or their legal agreements are incompatible with the Open Source principles: Llama2 (Meta), Grok (X/Twitter), Phi-2 (Microsoft), Mixtral (Mistral).

These results should be seen as part of the definitional process, a learning moment, they're not certifications of any kind. OSI will continue to validate only legal documents, and will not validate or review individual AI systems, just as it does not validate or review software projects.

well then.

Announcement by the creator: https://forum.syncthing.net/t/discontinuing-syncthing-android/23002

Unfortunately I don’t have good news on the state of the android app: I am retiring it. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version.

Reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires even without doing much, if any, changes.

Thanks a lot to everyone who ever contributed to this app!

Description:

komorebi is a tiling window manager that works as an extension to Microsoft's Desktop Window Manager in Windows 10 and above.

komorebi allows you to control application windows, virtual workspaces and display monitors with a CLI which can be used with third-party software such as whkd and AutoHotKey to set user-defined keyboard shortcuts.

komorebi aims to make as few modifications as possible to the operating system and desktop environment by default. Users are free to make such modifications in their own configuration files for komorebi, but these will remain opt-in and off-by-default for the foreseeable future.

Dear community,

I hope this message finds you well. I want to take a moment to address the concerns raised in Issue #2795 regarding the BLOB functionality in our app. First and foremost, I sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration this may have caused. I was on vacation during this time, and I understand that my absence may have contributed to the lack of clarity surrounding this issue.

The BLOB feature is an important aspect of our app, and I recognize that the documentation surrounding it has not been as clear as it should be. I appreciate your patience as we work through these challenges, and I want to assure you that I am fully committed to resolving this matter.

As I return to work, I will prioritize updating the documentation to provide a comprehensive understanding of how the BLOB functionality works. I will also investigate the specific concerns raised in Issue #2795 to ensure that any underlying issues are addressed promptly.

Your trust in our software is paramount, and I am dedicated to regaining any confidence that may have been affected by this situation. I am confident that, with your continued support and feedback, we can enhance the app and provide a better experience for all users.

Thank you for your understanding and for being a part of our community. I look forward to sharing updates with you soon as we work towards improving our app and its documentation.

Warm regards, longpanda
