Where to find the Code-Op

Wow, thanks for the stickies! Love all the activity in this thread. I love our coding comrades!


Hey fellow Hexbearions! I have no idea what I'm doing! However, born out of the conversations in the comments of this little thing I posted the other day, I have created an org on GitHub that I think we can use to share, highlight, and collaborate on code and projects from comrades here and abroad.

  • I know we have several bots that float around this instance, and I've always wondered who maintains them and where their code is hosted. It would be cool to keep a fork of those bots in this org, for example.
  • I've already added a fork of @WhyEssEff@hexbear.net's Emoji repo as another example.
  • The projects don't need to be Hexbear or Lemmy related, either. I've moved my aPC-Json repo into the org just as an example, and intend to use the code written by @invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net to play around with adding ICS files to the repo.
  • We have numerous comrades looking at mainlining some flavor of Linux and bailing on windows, maybe we could create some collaborative documentation that helps onboard the Linux-curious.
  • I've been thinking a lot recently about leftist communication online and building community spaces, which will ultimately intersect with self-hosting. Documenting various tools and providing Docker Compose files to easily get people off and running could be useful.

I don't know a lot about GitHub Orgs, so I should get on that, I guess. That said, I'm open to all suggestions and input on how best to use this space I've created.

Also, I made (what I think is) a neat emblem for the whole thing:

Todos

  • Mirror repos to both GitHub and Codeberg
  • Create process for adding new repos to the mirror process
  • Create a more detailed profile README on GitHub.

Done

  • ~~Recover from whatever this sickness is the dang kids gave me from daycare.~~

Why are emerging economies rapidly choosing electrification over oil and gas?

In this interview, Markham Hislop speaks with Dan Walter of Ember Energy about a major shift underway in global energy systems. Across the global South, technologies like solar, electric vehicles, and heat pumps are no longer just climate solutions—they are often the cheapest and most practical energy options available.

The conversation explores how falling costs have triggered a tipping point, why decentralized energy (like balcony solar) is spreading, and how electrification is bypassing traditional grid constraints. It also examines the role of disruptive innovation, drawing on Clayton Christensen’s theory to explain how “good enough” technologies are reshaping entire energy systems.

OpenAI leaders horrified staffers after proposing an “insane” plan to enrich the company by pitting world governments against each other.

This anecdote of near comic-book-villainry comes from The New Yorker’s sweeping new investigation into CEO Sam Altman, which documents his alarming pattern of lying and manipulating to build his AI empire, a behavior that some insiders likened to that of an actual “sociopath.”
