Public Money, Public Code - A campaign advocating for legislation requiring that publicly financed software developed for the public sector be made publicly available & open-source
  • Similar applications don't have to be programmed from scratch every time.

    This sounds exactly like a COBOL programmer turned manager I met early in my career.

    Major projects can share expertise and costs.

    As opposed to tossing a dead raccoon over each other's yard until somebody has to clean it up. Because I cannot imagine such office politics in the government.

    Applications paid by the public should be available for everyone.

    I demand my right to access military supplies management software code. And a nice Makefile to build that thing at home. Yeah, I have the right to that shit too. For recreational purposes.

    With transparent processes, others don't have to reinvent the wheel.

  • Israeli forces shoot at UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, wounding two
  • Maybe they're using the tried-and-tested strategy of targeting UN forces to make them leave. It happened in Rwanda too, they killed those Belgian peacekeepers and then Belgium and France pulled out. Shortly after that, the Rwandan start their genocide. At least the Israelis seem to have just wounded the peacekeepers, unlike the Rwandan, who hacked the Belgian with machetes. Nevertheless, it doesn't look very promising.
