Hi all,
Sorry about the short notice, but we have a meeting scheduled for tonight at 7:00 PM in Reitz Union meeting room 346. I haven't heard back from them yet, but some of the librarians may be coming to talk about the library resources and how we can work together next year. It will be our last general meeting of the semester, but don't forget about the Linux installfest and our next copynight (more details on those two at the meeting). Hope to see you tonight!
Best,
Jennifer Griffith
President, Florida Free Culture

Europe is completely dependent on US cloud services, Martin Kleppmann told QCon London. His fix: commoditise everything. He walked through three technologies he's helped build: multi-cloud via de facto standards, Bluesky's AT Protocol for social media, and local-first software for collaboration, all designed to make switching providers trivial and shift power back to users.

Configuration has evolved from static deployment files into a live control plane that directly shapes system behavior. The evolution of configuration management highlights why misconfigurations can trigger large outages and how hyperscalers deploy changes safely using staged rollouts, validation, blast radius limits, and automated rollback at scale.
