Open Food Facts showed up for the DigiEduHack with 2 local hackathons in Denmark and Canada – Open Food Facts blog
On November 15th, two Open Food Facts ambassadors: Marius in Denmark and Louis in Quebec, Canada organised local DigiEduHack events, each with its own flavour, community, and insights.DigiEduHack is a global initiative supported by the European Commission to encourage communities, students, and innovators to rethink digital education through hands-on hackathons. Every year, organisations around the world host local events where participants learn, collaborate, and build creative solutions to societal challenges.
Both events shared the same spirit: the excitement to learn and lots of creativity. Some students in Canada even expressed interest in pursuing their prototypes beyond the hackathon.
DigiEduHack will announce a global winner in February, selected through a public vote.

The rise of LLMs as a useful development tool over the last year or so has been significant. The power and flexibility of tools like Claude Code and ChatGPT have given a lot of functionality both to experienced developers and new developers alike.jellyfin.org

you just know a company like Microsoft or Apple will eventually try suing an open source project over AI code that’s “too similar” to their proprietary code.
Doubt it. The incentives don't align. They benefit from open source much more than are threatened by it. Even that "embrace, extent, extinguish" idea comes from different times and it's likely less profitable than the vendor lock-in and other modern practices that are actually in place today. Even the copyright argument is something that could easily backfire if they just throw it in a case, because of all this questionable AI training.
So far the best AI tool use policy I've read, specially this bit:
Your PR body should be providing context to other developers about why a change was made, and if your name is on it, we want your words and explanations, not an LLM's. If you can't explain what the LLM did, we are not interested in the change.

La prima bici Cannondale è molto diversa da come te la immagini
Quando pensiamo a Cannondale, l’immaginario corre veloce: telai oversize, alluminio prima e carbonio poi, bici da corsa aggressive e mountain bike che hanno fatto scuola. E invece no. La prima bici Cannondale non era una race machine né tantomeno una MTB. Era una bici da viaggio. Da cicloturismo. E questa, oggi più che mai, è una storia che vale la pena raccontare.

Uh, what? This is Canada, we don't have that here.
NATO was in discussions for raising target spending long before the Liberal minority government. It was being pushed for since Russia invaded Ukraine. It was only finalized by NATO members at the June 2025 NATO summit in the Hague.

It's not like the already-governing Liberals wouldn't have known about quiet NATO discussions before the election, so this criticism of the article makes zero sense.

in reply to BrikoX • • •It's probably on Canada's best interest to have more people serve. And that doesn't have to be a bad thing, it's kind of like a public servant job with extra steps. A lot of it is administrative or technical desk jobs. It's the one rare situation where conservatives will allow any sort of public spending or inflated budget, because it's camouflaged (literally).
So yeah sure, let's get the army to hire more civil engineers and put them to handle climate change infrastructure changes. Train more tactical operations and lend a hand on wildfire emergencies. The military is very flexible, and if it's a bipartisan approach to get more tax dollars dedicated to good things, go ahead.
