Cal.com goes closed source after 5 years, citing AI tools that can scan open code for vulnerabilities and expose risks to user data. 🔐
A limited MIT version, Cal.diy, remains, but core systems close, reducing transparency and user control despite security concerns. 🔐

Cal, application de planification parmi les plus importantes de l’écosystème open source, abandonne sa licence ouverte. En cause : la capacité des #IA à analyser du code à la recherche de failles. Un signal qui en dit long sur l’état du logiciel libre. #OpenSource

Big progress with #OpenCrystalCaves: levels 13 and 14 are done, including the “low gravity” mechanic!
Why the scare quotes? Because it doesn’t - as you might assume - make you jump higher, despite what the sign says. Instead it means when you fire it pushes you back a bit, so in “remaster” mode the signs are replaced with “heavy recoil” or “light recoil” depending on the level.
