And as usual I am asking #FOSDEM community for any updates to my "How to survive FOSDEM" post.

Since I wrote it 5 years ago it post with biggest amount of changes. Each year many people read it. Many times during event I was thanked for it.

So if you see some outdated info there then please reply.

Boost for visibility.

My "FOSDEM videos" page got some updates:

- new DataTables
- use of my common templates so all my pages share code

You can check all talks from 2012 for slides and videos. There is page showing all years at once so you check all talks of YOUR_FAVOURITE_SPEAKER at once.

Remediating thousands of untracked security vulnerabilities in #nixpkgs
Through vendoring, many packages in #nixpkgs end up including obsolete and vulnerable versions of their dependencies. This is especially prevalent for #Rust, #Go, #JavaScript, #Java and #DotNET software using strict lockfiles. How bad is the current situation really? What can #nixpkgs contributors do to improve it?

The good part is that my recognized value with my #FOSS work, finally has hardened enough within me, that it keeps the self-doubt away. So when I get rejected from giving a conference talk about AI (as is what happened with #fosdem2024 ) or having my right to belong to something like #Nivenly constantly challenged, I can remind, nay, *prove* to myself that I am actually worth it, but the system has always been rigged against neurodivergent people from the start.

#COBOL, that obsolete language that's been supposed to "die in 5 years" for 65 years ? With over 800 billion lines of code (according to a Micro Focus study), it's like the Highlander of programming languages.

But, being a paragon of the closed model, there are #opensource projects to follow, such as the #GnuCOBOL compiler. Here is a presentation of the project at #FOSDEM2024 (@fosdem) by Fabrice LE FESSANT and Simon SOBISCH 🦕
