FOSS infrastructure is under attack by AI companies

LLM scrapers are taking down FOSS projects' infrastructure, and it's getting worse.

Du programmierst und tüftelst gerne an Software oder Hardware? Und du bist bereit für eine Herausforderung? Dann ist "Youth Hacking 4 Freedom" (YH4F) der perfekte Wettbewerb, um deine Fähigkeiten zu testen. Die Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) organisiert jährlich diesen Programmierwettbewerb für junge Menschen in Europa.

Jugendliche im Alter von 14-18 Jahren haben die Möglichkeit, unter der Anleitung von Experten aus dem Freien-Software-Universum an ihrer eigenen Projektidee zu arbeiten. Es gibt keine Einschränkungen für die Projekte, solange sie unter einer Freien-Software-Lizenz veröffentlicht werden. In diesem Wettbewerb können junge Leute allein oder im Team ihre Coding-Skills ausprobieren und Projektarbeit lernen, während sie neue Freundschaften quer durch Europa schließen. Im Vortrag erfährst du alles über die Erfahrungen und Projekte früherer YH4F-Teilnehmender und findest heraus, wie du dich für die nächste Runde bewerben kannst.

I am not a programmer but I have a #programming #Question:

How easy is it to compile Android Apps from source?

My kids are having fun learning capitals of countries recently. I remembered Quizzn which is nice for this, but the English names are often much different than German, so I want to just translate the CSV with wordpairs and compile the app again. That's it. I have no motivation to start programming Android apps and invest weeks of time to get there.

I am not a programmer. Being a #Debian user, I found AndroidTools in the wiki. This document is full of things I don't understand. Following it would entail a lot of guess work for me which minimizes the chance of succeeding.

Are you aware of any better tutorials? Or can you tell me if Quizz is below or above android-sdk-platform-23?

I welcome any hint, even "forget it!" 😀
