ICYMI: You don’t have to write code to contribute to open source. Docs, tests and sorting through issues count too.

Ibrahim Haddad’s guide for first-time contributors, with LFX Mentorship, covers choosing a project and making that first contribution.

How is your development workflow holding back engineering performance? Developers lose 17+ hours a week to maintenance and bad code, roughly $300B in lost global GDP a year. Dr. Ibrahim Haddad's new roadmap breaks down how to fix it, with practical frameworks and metrics.

The stack is under pressure at every layer, in different forms, at different intensities. Which reading will prevail?Readers with different vantages on the stack will find different readings more plausible. The true position at the is that all three readings are live & plausible.

I spent months dissecting the #AI stack through the lens of #opensource economics, layer by layer, from silicon to applications. If you're trying to understand where the value is flowing through the stack, this article is for you:

How do you measure OSPO value beyond activity metrics?

Most OSPOs are evaluated on activity counts. A new report by Ibrahim Haddad (@ibrahimatlinux) with LF Research and @todogroup proposes a better way: four dimensions that connect OSPO work to actual business outcomes including cost avoidance, resilience, risk foresight, and ecosystem influence.

3 plausible futures for the #AI Stack:
1⃣value flows to compute
2⃣value flows to applications
3⃣unclear yet

A detailed walkthrough of the stack (Fig 1) & a discussion of the scenarios (Fig 2) is coming up.

DM me if you're interested in reviewing the draft.

New report: "Measuring OSPO Value".

The OSPO Value Framework measures the business value of an #OSPO across 4 dimensions: cost efficiency, operational resilience, risk anticipation & strategic influence.

Thank you @linuxfoundation for publising.

I still have the Linux Journal covers from when putting a telecom stack on free Linux was strange enough to be a magazine story.

What I missed: that value never came back.

Four times in 25 years I watched the same pattern play out. Each time most of us saw an engineering pattern while it was a pricing event. It is happening again right now over the AI model and agents layer.
