i feel like more people should have personal websites like instead of "whats your instragram / snapchat / facebook / discord / etc" the question should become "whats your website" or something i love indie sites i dont have social media so i just tell poeople "visit ari.lt and youll know everything" 😭 the world would be so much better AND swaggier without big soctech

Quoting from https://lnkd.in/p/d2Mn8xR9:
[🇬🇧] Hello, World!
I am currently looking for a junior position in IT or a science-related field.
I am studying Software Systems (Engineering) at Vilnius University and have around 10 years of independent experience in IT, working on everything from software development and systems administration to infrastructure, automation and open-source projects.
Alongside my studies, I have been actively building practical experience through personal projects, research and volunteering. I am particularly interested in software development, systems engineering, DevOps/infrastructure, cybersecurity and research, but I am open to opportunities where I can contribute and learn thereby grow as a whole.
I am a passionate, curious, hardworking candidate who enjoys solving problems, learning, and being useful to the team.
I may be looking for my first formal opportunity in the industry, but I am certainly not starting from zero.
I've attached my CV and would be very happy to hear from anyone who might have a suitable opportunity or recommendation. Feel free to contact me via e-mail or LinkedIn DMs!
[🇱🇹] Sveiki!
Šiuo metu ieškau jaunesniojo (junior) specialisto pozicijos IT arba mokslo srityje.
Šiuo metu studijuoju programų sistemas Vilniaus universitete, o savarankiškai IT srityje darbuojuosi jau apie 10 metų. Per šį laiką teko dirbti su programavimu, sistemų administravimu bei inžinerija, infrastruktūra, automatizavimu bei įvairiais atvirojo kodo projektais.
Greta studijų aktyviai kaupiu praktinę patirtį per asmeninius projektus, mokslinę veiklą ir savanorystę. Labiausiai domina programavimas, sistemų inžinerija, DevOps/infrastruktūra, kibernetinis saugumas ir moksliniai tyrimai, tačiau esu atvira ir kitoms galimybėms, kuriose galėčiau mokytis ir prisidėti bei, aišku, augti.
Esu motyvuota, smalsi ir kruopšti kandidatas, mėgstanti spręsti problemas, gilintis į technologijas ir būti naudinga komandai.
Nors ieškau pirmosios formalios galimybės šiose srityse, į tai tikrai einu ne nuo nulio.
Prisegu savo CV ir būsiu labai dėkinga už bet kokią tinkamą darbo galimybę ar rekomendaciją. Susisiekti galite el. paštu arba asmenine žinute per LinkedIn!

ok posted something substantial on linkedin what shall i do now
One of my not-so-hot takes is that the tech industry needs to stop exploiting the FOSS community's collective effort and humility as a stage for corporate stunts.
The trajectory of recent years has highlighted the ever-evolving trend of open-washing as we are watching corporations co-opt the language of software liberation whilst delivering none of the substance or commitment.
Two examples that come in context of the modern open-washing lanscape particularly portray this well:
First of all, with the rise of AI (particularly LLMs) we have seen a rise of "open weight" models without any training code, data crawlers, or anything else substantial other than a black box (the weights) to sell us the narrative of "democratised AI". There is no user liberation or genuine autonomy here - it is merely a corporate marketing stunt dressed up as benevolent community engagement.
Twitter's algorithm code dump back in 2023 also comes to mind. The reveal of Twitter's algorithm was a masterclass in PR over substance.
Simply dumping nearly 700k lines of lines onto a public repository does not make a project open source. Their dump arrived with zero commit history, was utterly devoid of documentation, completely missing any mechanism for meaningful community contribution, and was only a flood space for trolls, all while they were gaining valuable PR from the open-washing-led hype. Such behaviour fundamentally fails to align with even the most basic principles of FOSS ethics.
True FOSS is rooted in transparency and honesty. It requires the vulnerability to share one's working process, the integrity to welcome outside critique, and a commitment to user liberties.
What we are witnessing instead is the strip-mining of our community's hard-won ethical reputation simply to launder corporate track records. It's Wendy's twitter account clones all over again, albeit by dumping thousands of lines of slop and calling it "open source".
I honestly preferred when they just outright took our code over open-washing their slop...
