The Linux Link Tech Show Episode 1153
Oct 15, 2026
Summary
Joel discusses a security headache caused by Orca creating Jira epics instead of stories, which bypassed the team's Kanban filters. He then explores Artcraft, a suite of open-source, AI-assisted applications like Lightcraft and Wordcraft that serve as Linux-native alternatives to Adobe and Microsoft tools. The hosts also cover the new Android-based Amazon Alexa tablets, Apple's HomeView announcement, and Joel's preparations for an upcoming marathon in cold weather.
