Giuseppe Bilotta<p>WIthout <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PublicMoneyPublicCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicMoneyPublicCode</span></a>, by keeping control of the code, Ms. L.K. Researcher, PhD has one more leverage to get her deserved place, since re-developing the tool from scratch would require several years by someone competent to achieve a similar functionality, and if the university isn't interested in hiring her she can “shop around” to possibly get hired by a different university or research institution.</p><p>Of course, the issue here isn't <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PublicMoneyPublicCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicMoneyPublicCode</span></a> _per se_: the issue is in the politicking (and possibly corruption) underlying many of the “social” processes in academia and research, which PMPC would end up amplifying, by giving more power to those who already abuse theirs to ride on other people's research for their benefit: so even though the intent behind the initiative is the best, it risks being counterproductive.</p><p>I'm not happy about this, because I'm a huge fan of <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FLOSS</span></a> and would like all software (especially scientific software) to follow such openness principle: but I see situations like the one above too often to not be wary of the consequences.</p><p>8/n</p>
Giuseppe Bilotta<p>This, BTW, is also the one single reason why I'm skeptical about the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PublicMoneyPublicCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicMoneyPublicCode</span></a> initiative: the potential for abuse from more (politically) powerful groups to “run away” with somebody else's research and make it their own.</p><p>Consider this scenario: Ms. Little Known Researcher, PhD manages to win a small grant to work on some very useful research. She not only manages to successfully conduct her research, but she even develops a very useful software tool that leverage such research into a much-sought-out application. The university or research institution has an interest in leveraging such a tool, and hire someone to work with it and possibly on it to expand its functionality and do more science with it.</p><p>The obvious choice would be to hire Ms. L.K. Researcher, PhD, but as it happens there's Dr. Ing. Prof. Very Important Asshat who would rather have one of his gofers to be hired instead, so he pressures the board to give preference to his guy over the obvious choice.</p><p>Now here's the thing: with Public Money, Public Code, Ms. L.K. Researcher, PhD would have had to release her code as <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FLOSS</span></a>, making it easer for the board to cede to Dr. Ing. Prof. V.I. Asshat, requests:he gets his way, and Ms. L.K. Researcher, PhD can go look for a new job as a cashier as the gofer takes her place and research stagnates because he wasn't anywhere nearly as competent as her.</p><p>7/n</p>

Preston Maness ☭<p>Well, I'm reading through it now, mere days before the book report's deadline (life has been kicking me while I'm down this past month; just lemme have this one). Keeping in mind that this was published in 2015, and likely worked on in 2013-2014, I'd say, so far (I'm finished with the first two, of eight, chapters), that the authors are... wildly optimistic in their prognostications. Their faith in capitalism is thoroughly baked into -- and yet completely unspoken in -- what I have read so far, and it borders on naïveté. Ethical questions are barely even raised, and there is no investigation made into them at either the textual or subtextual level.</p><p>As a former software engineer, their hope in Big Tech -- and particularly companies like Facebook and Google (the authors go so far as to nonchalantly suggest that a "genomic 'Facebook'" might one day exist, without casting any skepticism or aspersion toward that idea at all) -- is particularly misplaced when viewed through the lens of a decade of hindsight into the mess that surveillance capitalism has wrought. <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/23andMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>23andMe</span></a> has been presented as a success story, a particularly tragicomical specimen in light of its recent financial troubles and questions over ownership of the genetic data should it go bankrupt.</p><p>And that leads into what I suspect will be my primary gripe with the book: its (suspected) dearth of considerations for the licensing of genomic data and technology, about who gets to benefit from amassing such a corpus of genomic information, and on what terms. I have found myself at multiple instances, just in the first two chapters, already exasperatedly asking the authors: haven't y'all seen or read anything put out by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>aral</span></a></span> on the questions of data ownership? Is the field of <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/bioinformatics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bioinformatics</span></a> truly sleepwalking into the exact same quagmires that the <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> world contended with, all without ever reading anything put out by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.xyz/@rms" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>rms</span></a></span>, by the <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hostux.social/@fsf" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>fsf</span></a></span>, by the <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.sfconservancy.org/users/conservancy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>conservancy</span></a></span>, or by the <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@fsfe" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>fsfe</span></a></span>? Is our species, in yet another instance, going to prioritize private profit at the expense of public good? Nay, even publicly subsidize a for-profit sector that has no obligations to the public in turn?</p><p>If genetics truly is the source code of life, and our existing licenses for such source code are truly so "permissive" (or even non-existent) then our species is in very sorry shape indeed. To avoid a <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/cyberpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cyberpunk</span></a> future, I implore and entreat that we take inspiration from nature's viruses, and adopt viral, copyleft licensing for our collective genetic source code as a species. Genomics must belong to everyone, lest it become yet another tool of oppression. "Free Genomics, Free Society," as it were.</p><p>I see the nascent optimism of authors Field and Davies and raise them an equal dose of pessimism, administered one decade later.</p><p><a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/biocode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>biocode</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/genomics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>genomics</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/genetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>genetics</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/FreeGenomics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeGenomics</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/CreativeCommons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CreativeCommons</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/ODBL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ODBL</span></a> <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/PublicMoneyPublicCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicMoneyPublicCode</span></a></p>

Hackstub<p>Votre attention SVP:</p><p>Peut-être que ça vous a échappé mais depuis 2020, les programmes Next Generation Internet, sous-branche du programme Horizon Europe de la Commission Européenne, financent en cascade le logiciel libre en Europe (via les appels de <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.nlnet.nl/@nlnet" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>nlnet</span></a></span>). C’est un financement massif qui a permis de nombreux développement de logiciels libres ces dernières années et le tout sans trop de contraintes (avec trop peu de transparence et de suivi par ailleurs… ce qui est vraiment relou en soi mais qui doit être amélioré). Malheureusement ce programme semble être retiré des prochains financements prévus par Horizon Europe à la faveur de l’“IA”.</p><p>Du coup on est invité à contacter les National Contact Points, représentants nationaux de Horizon Europe, pour leur faire part de notre mécontentement et de l’importance de maintenir des financements publics pour le logiciel libre. Dans cette optique, on a écrit une lettre ouverte au sein des Petites Singularités et on se disait que ça ferait sens de la forker avec Hackstub et ARN pour le NCP français faire signer par d’autres orgas du logiciel libre francophone. Je pense notamment aux logiciels qui ont bénéficié de ces financements comme Yunohost, mais aussi aux Chatons qui utilisent ces mêmes logiciels.</p><p>Par ailleurs, je peux d’ores et déjà vous annoncer que ce sujet fera partie du thème central de la prochaine édition du <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OFFDEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OFFDEM</span></a> à Bruxelles, le premier weekend de février 2025.

Hackstub<p>Your attention please: </p><p>Maybe you've never heard about it but since 2020, the Next Generation Internet programs, a sub-branch of the European Commission’s Horizon Europe program, have been cascading funding (via <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.nlnet.nl/@nlnet" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>nlnet</span></a></span> calls) open source software in Europe. The massive fundings have enabled a great deal of free software development in recent years, and all without too many constraints (with too few transparency and monitoring, though… which urgently needs to be improved). Unfortunately, these NGI programs seem to have been withdrawn from the next round of Horizon Europe fundings to give priority to AI bullshit.</p><p>As a result, we’ve been invited to contact the National Contact Points, Horizon Europe’s national representatives, to express our concern and the importance of maintaining public funding for free software. With this in mind, we wrote an open letter at Petites Singularités and thought it would make sense to fork it out with Hackstub and ARN in Strasbourg for the French NCP to get other French-speaking free software orgas to sign. I’m thinking in particular of the software that has benefited from this funding, such as Yunohost, but also of the Kittens that use this same software.</p><p>We can also announce that this topic will be part of the central theme of the next <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OFFDEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OFFDEM</span></a> in Brussels, on the first weekend of February 2025.
