How to deal with a horrible codebase that you’ve inherited. Getting started, breaking the problem into smaller pieces, understanding what’s actually wrong, the importance of testing (as usual), and why technical debt isn’t necessarily the best name for the problem.

NVIDIA makes more of its drivers easier to install, the EU is probably going to redirect FOSS funding to AI, Mark Zuckerberg abuses the term “open source”, Proton jumps the shark, a trio of typical Google stories, and the shortest KDE Korner in history.

Andy is annoyed that so much free and open source software is hosted on a proprietary platform that’s owned by Microsoft. There are plenty of alternatives to GitHub, but ultimately the network effect is why so many people host their code there. We dream of a proper federated solution. Maybe one day…

If you want to be a good developer, how many different programming languages should you learn? Maybe becoming an expert in one specific language is the way to go. Maybe it’s more a case of learning different concepts and paradigms than languages.

Google Cloud teaches us about eggs and baskets by losing a big customer’s data, and Microsoft’s carbon emissions are up significantly – probably because of AI. Plus compliance and best practices for hardening instances, web apps, and storage.

Gary’s recent trip to FOSDEM made him wonder if the type of Linux user who goes to FOSS events has changed. Has the demographic shifted more towards “normal” people who use Linux as a tool rather than something to tinker with? Plus more on planned obsolescence, and a quick prediction about the Apple Vision Pro.

Plus why the Raspberry Pi bubble has burst, and the present and future of RISC-V.

In 2023 there have been 151 episodes of Late Night Linux Family shows, totalling 67 hours and 45 minutes. That's about 4 hours short of 3 full days of continuous podcasts if you listened back to back.
(there's also an Ask The Hosts episode which is available for patrons but won't be public until January which makes it 152)

When it comes to collaboration workflows, Amolith dislikes the pull request model that GitHub made popular and much prefers the email/patch-based approach. Kevin does his best to get to the bottom of why, and Joe wonders if it might come down to disliking Microsoft.
