I am increasingly conscious that writing and building for the Commons is not what it was.

My work (like most written and published openly) is subject to being harvested, absorbed and summarized into AI systems without reciprocity or consent. Until better standards exist for how that value exchange works, I need to move to a sustainable model for writing and sharing.

California Just Killed Open Source

California AB 2047: The End of Open Source 3D Printing

California just introduced a bill that doesn't just regulate "ghost guns", it mandates a digital kill switch for every 3D printer sold. California AB 2047 requires "blocking technology" that connects your printer to a government-approved database before every single print. If the system goes down, or your file is flagged, your hardware becomes a paperweight.

This isn't just about firearms. This is the death of Open Source. If this bill passes, it effectively bans Marlin, Klipper, and Orca Slicer, forcing every manufacturer to lock down their firmware. It turns general-purpose computing into a walled garden where you only rent permission to use the hardware you own.

All the donor-funded foundations ought to be fighting against and speaking out against this Orwellian garbage.

Just posted some ramblings about #Zed in Level Up Coding.

https://medium.com/p/8bc9aee18d98/

The editor is fast and great to use with #PHPantom, but lacks all the conveniences you get from a paid product like #PHPStorm.

I still believe we will eventually end up in Zed as long both PHPantom and Zed mature. It's progressing when you count years ago Zed wasn't even on my list of "usable editors".
