This, thank you. I try to avoid LLMs, seemingly in Don Quixote mode. Ethics matter. Always welcoming write-ups like this post and all references in it as friendly ammunition. Let the uncalled-for blog posts roll 👏.

values as the soil where ideas are shaped, and tested against

We stay the same because of our core values? Like, when someone really open and welcoming becomes frightened and angry at the world, people say he/she has changed (and not if their hair has renewed or they get new nail polish)?

Btw, if you have any other suggestions for the speaker panels or want to help out as a on-site volunteer or assist the organising team in any way you want: do reach out to @altctrl.org (fine folks over there 👌☺️)

#altctrlorg is an unofficial #wceu2025 side event, focusing on the issues at hand in #WordPress land; it convinced me to go to Basel after being in doubt for a long time; check the altctrl.org/schedule/ and have yourself convinced too ☺️
We need to talk!

I heard @vlad.website speak in the Funding Devroom @fosdem.bsky.social, I'm so delighted to see he'll be sharing his thoughts at @altctrl.org too!
