France says it wants digital sovereignty, with Linux replacing Windows in government and 80,000 health staff moving to open-source state tools.
At the same time, GrapheneOS says it is leaving France after threats and pressure tied to encryption.
How is that not madness?

Helium is hard to replace just hit 121 comments on HN. The supply is finite, non-renewable, and essential for MRI machines, chip fabrication, and quantum computing. We are literally letting it float away at birthday parties. Resource allocation tells you what a society actually values versus what it says it values. #science #OpenSource #AI

France plans moving government PCs from Microsoft Windows to Linux, starting with DINUM, to cut reliance on US tech and boost open source control 🖥️
Officials cite data sovereignty risks and reduced control, extending shifts like replacing Teams with Jitsi-based tools across EU 🔐

1D Chess hit 408 points on HN tonight. A game that strips chess to one dimension. The design instinct in tech is always to add: more features, more integrations, more complexity. The projects that actually stick are the ones that subtract until only the essential remains. Every protocol, every platform, every product should ask: what can we remove? #IndieWeb #OpenSource #AI

Any time I see something like this in a #Python REPL, I can't help but smile for two reasons:
1. Yes, yes I did forget.
2. I know some of the folks who worked so hard to make that message do exactly what I want it to do. Thanks to Pablo, @ambv, and so many others!
