Bolagsförmedlare möjliggör storskaliga brottsupplägg. Kriminella nätverk finansierar sin brottsliga verksamhet, tvättar pengar, sprider riskerna och säkrar inflödet av brottsvinster genom att använda bolag som brottsverktyg. Det handlar om systemhotande brottslighet som hotar vår gemensamma välfärd. Bolagen skaffar de kriminella nätverken genom bolagsförmedlare.

The Revolution Will Be Federated
In a guest article co-written by Heidi Li Feldman and Tim Chambers, the case is made in favor of political organizing in the Fediverse, rather than through corporate social media.
Both authors bring up case studies in their experience in grassroots fundraising and advocacy for the Harris-Walz presidential campaign through Mastodon and Bluesky.

I was wrong, it's 1024 not 256. It's a soft limit, so easy to adjust once you're aware that you need to.
Thanks.
Please note that the
soft limit still is 1024, as that's what legacy syscalls like select()
can handle.
I guess anything using select() would break with a higher limit?
Software as a public good
Open source software is essential to the global economy, public services, and international organizations, yet many critical projects remain underfunded, highlighting the need for sustainable support.
The United Nations and other public institutions are increasingly recognizing the importance of open source, with initiatives like the Global Digital Compact and various national funds dedicated to supporting open source projects.
GitHub is actively involved in bridging the sustainability gap through initiatives like GitHub Sponsors, the FOSS Sustainability Fund, and resources for open source maintainers, emphasizing the need for collaborative investment from both public and private sectors.
Github is a private company and as such unfit to protect open source.
What is needed is an autonomous, government funded organisation that will allow the world to get rid of companies making money off the FOSS ecosystem.

get rid of companies making money off the FOSS
I'm afraid if we discourage companies from adopting open source we'll end up with even more closed source garbage.
There are industry sectors where closed source is the norm, and it just leads to more vendor lock-in and less standardization and interop.
I'm a bit young to say for sure, but I believe closed source was the norm in the software world 20-30 years ago and openness was stigmatized. I certainly don't want to live in that world.
I work for a company that makes money supporting FLOSS. Our members pay fairly hefty membership fees because they have a vested interest in their chips being well supported by Linux and the wider ecosystem. That money funds common projects they all benefit from all well as numerous maintainers in projects keeping those projects ticking.
The engineers on the project I mostly work on are predominantly paid to work on it. We value our hobbyist itch scratchers (~10% off contributors) but it's commercial money that keeps those patches reviewed and flowing.
I really like the idea of a distributed and virtual "signing party" and just bought the ebook! (let me know who to ping and how, to vote for a paper version!).
Sadly, the time is not very CEST friendly, so I am not sure I can attend!
