      • OpenSource.com3 reasons my Linux team uses Penpot

        Working with Fedora exposes you to a lot of different open source software. A major Fedora website revamp started over a year ago, with the goal of improving design aesthetics, creating a style guide, planning the website strategy, and choosing the tech stack for delivering the Fedora Linux offerings website. From a design perspective, the team needed a tool to create mock-ups, a place to hold the asset libraries, and something suitable to hand off to developers once complete.

        Figma is a popular interface designing tool recommended by many, but it wasn't deemed suitable because the company had recently imposed restrictions on their free plan. This concern arose before Adobe acquired Figma, so the decision not to use it was even more significant in retrospect!

        The team looked into Penpot and found that it matched everyone's requirements. Penpot is the first open source design and prototyping platform for cross-domain teams. A team within Kaleidos creates Penpot. Kaleidos is a technology company started in 2011 that fully focuses on open source projects.

      • HackadayLinux Fu: Gum Up Your Script | Hackaday

        We often write quick bash scripts and judging by the comments, half of us use bash or a similar shell to pop out quick, useful scripts, and half of us think that’s an abomination, and you should only use bash for your command line and resort to something more like a traditional language to do anything else. If you’re in the former camp, you’re probably cursing your allegiance when you need to make your bash scripts more interactive.

        Gum can help. It’s a utility that can handle your script input and output with a little flair while requiring almost no effort on your part.

        The command looks simple, but it has twelve subcommands, each with myriad options. But you can break down the functions into a few simple categories. The input commands let you prompt for a line of input or a bunch of lines of input. You can also create a pick list or a yes/no type of prompt. There’s also a file picker and a filter, sort of like fzf.

        The output commands let you display markdown, code, and tables. You can make output look nice with borders and colors. There’s a pager for lengthy output and a spinner for showing that something is happening. You can also use template strings with different placeholders.

      • Red Hat4 essentials to prevent OS command injection attacks

        Injection attacks, one of the most common security threats, are included in the OWASP Top 10 list of most critical web application security risks. The OWASP Top 10 is a standard for web application security that provides a comprehensive list of the most significant risks to web applications. Injection attacks occur when untrusted data is sent to an interpreter as part of a command or query. Attackers can use injection attacks to manipulate the behavior of the interpreter and gain unauthorized access to the system. Injection attacks can take many forms, including SQL injection, LDAP injection, OS command injection, etc.

        OS command injection is a type of security vulnerability that arises when an application or system allows an attacker to execute operating system commands by injecting malicious input. This issue can lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security issues.

      • Enterprisers ProjectDigital transformation: 5 strategies to elevate your initiative
        When IT leaders talk about€ digital transformation, we toss out terms like dataverse, cloud computing, 5G, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and others.

        For many people in your organization (probably most, in fact), these words are a foreign language, full of ambiguity and anxiety. What may be exciting to you is likely raising fear of the unknown for them, even introducing questions about competence, capability, and value.

        Fretting and fumbling in a quicksand of technical jargon is NOT how you want people to feel about your digital transformation.

        Instead, you want them to be inspired by the possibilities it can bring to the organization and even their own career growth. If you can get people excited about and inspired by your true north, you can drive real progress and change.

        Here are five strategies that can help you reveal the big picture, smooth the way, and elevate your digital transformation:

        1. Ground it in the 'why'

        Be clear and straightforward about why you are undertaking the transformation, including the outcomes you will deliver for customers, employees, and the business. Talk in terms of capabilities and possibilities. Your goal is to have people at every level of the organization say, “I get it. This makes sense. This is exciting. I see where I fit in. How can I help?”

      • UbuntuUbuntu Blog: Charmed Kubeflow 1.7 is now available
        Run serverless ML workloads. Optimise models for deep learning. Expand your data science tooling.

        Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, announced today the general availability of Charmed Kubeflow 1.7. Charmed Kubeflow is an open-source, end-to-end MLOps platform that can run on any cloud, including hybrid cloud or multi-cloud scenarios. This latest release offers the ability to run serverless machine learning workloads and perform model serving, regardless of the framework that professionals use. This new capability increases developer productivity by reducing routine tasks, helping organisations lower their operational costs. It unburdens developers from explicitly describing the infrastructure underneath.

        Based on a poll run by Canonical, open source and ease of use are the most important factors professionals consider when selecting AI/ML tooling. Charmed Kubeflow 1.7 expands its spectrum of open-source frameworks and libraries and makes the model development deployment process easier with a new set of capabilities.

        Serverless workloads and new model serving capabilities

        In a recent MLOps report by Deloitte AI Institute, 74% of respondents indicated that they plan to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into all enterprise applications within three years. To achieve this, companies need to find ways to scale their AI projects in a reproducible, portable and reliable manner. Charmed Kubeflow 1.7 brings new capabilities for enterprise AI:

        • The introduction of KNative in the Kubeflow bundle allows organisations to run serverless machine learning workloads.
        • The addition of KServe enables users to perform model serving, regardless of the framework.
        • New frameworks for model serving, such as NVIDIA Triton.

At its core, Kubeflow is an open source ML toolkit that helps organizations to deploy and run ML workflows on cloud-native Kubernetes infrastructure. Among the themes of the Kubeflow 1.7 update is a focus on helping to better support transformer based models.

      • The New Stack Ubuntu Pro Tackles the Challenge of Enterprise Open Source Adoption

        Attractive as open source is, many organizations still have concerns. With these challenges in mind, Canonical, released Ubuntu Pro, a comprehensive subscription for open source security, compliance, and support.

        [...]

        Ninety-seven percent of applications leverage open source code, and 90% of companies are applying or using it in some way. According to Forrester, more than half of Fortune 500 companies use open source software for their development projects. In 2022, developers started 52 million new open source projects on GitHub. And, developers across the platform made more than 413 million contributions to open source projects.

        And yet, attractive as open source is, many organizations still struggle with the “how.” Concerns over support, security, and compliance continue to hover over open source adoption. Those certainly are areas where no enterprise can afford to compromise.

        With these challenges in mind, Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, recently released Ubuntu Pro, a comprehensive subscription for open source security, compliance, and support.

      • Rambling about Tolerance

        In such a case, those arguments would be correct. Christian nationalists do actually indoctrinate kids to hate. They force their religion on their children. And there have been numerous examples of conservative church leaders who rape, molest, or enable others who engage in those activities. That doesn't justify the conclusion that Christianity should be eradicated.

        This is also not the first nor the last time that Christian nationalists have called for genocide. I have no doubt that Matt Shae, author of the manifesto "The Biblical Basis for War", would just love to implement Numbers chapter 31 verses 17 and 18 right here in my own backyard. Quoting from the KJV, for those who haven't seen it.
