Just had someone leave feedback on my F/OSS project saying “maybe that's fine if a product is focused on your Chinese community.”
I'm Korean. Every single piece of documentation is in English. There's nothing in Chinese anywhere in the project.
This kind of microaggression is exhausting. As a non-white maintainer, you deal with these assumptions constantly—people who feel entitled to your labor while casually othering you based on your name.
It chips away at your motivation. It makes you wonder why you bother.

Rule of thumb, whenever you are about to type in that people should "just" do something, step away from the keyboard and read up on the situation. If it were a "just" thing it would've happened by now. I know I'm a broken record on this subject, but you can really improve your thinking by just (lol) treating "just" as a signal word you are likely not seeing the whole picture.
Today I wrote about what it means to write a free newsletter with voluntary subscriptions, and the delicate gift that it is to have a readership, and re-shared 12 essays from the year that was.

【健之堂虎乳芝強肺免疫配方特約】一名英國乘客近日乘搭瑞安航空（Ryanair）期間，因機上餐點質素與宣傳圖片嚴重不符而大感不滿，形容該餐點是自己「吃過最差的飛機餐」，事後向航空公司申請退款卻被拒，引起關注。
事發於本月10日，60歲的 Mike Crosby 乘搭由都柏林飛往倫敦的航班，期間以12.5歐元（約114港元）購買一份機上套餐，包括一杯咖啡、一條朱古力及一個芝士火腿意大利三文治（Panini）。惟食物送上後，其外觀及份量與機上雜誌宣傳圖片落差甚大，令他感到震驚。
Crosby指出，宣傳圖片中的三文治外皮金黃、餡料豐富，但實際到手的產品僅夾着兩片極薄的火腿，並塗上一層難以辨認的芝士狀醬料，而且只覆蓋麵包的一小部分。他形容該三文治「完全不像圖片」，直言：「那應該是芝士火腿，但看起來不像任何我認得的火腿，芝士也不像芝士，更像是一種醬。」他只吃了兩口便將整個三文治丟棄。

the guy is Charles Iliya Krempeaux, his past history is an assortment of dodgy Canadian fintechs and being a "startup entrepreneur", this is his attempt to monetise the fediverse. when it goes south, he's rich enough to leave you dangling. as those foolish enough to sign up have discovered, it already doesn't actually work.
on the plus side, it isn't literally crypto. on the minus side, it just smells like it.

Today is Volunteer Responsibility Amnesty Day
"Volunteer Responsibility Amnesty Day is about checking with yourself, and ending the commitments you need to end – maybe by taking a break, or by rotating it on to someone else, or by sunsetting a project."

Someone said my F/OSS docs are confusing, then “maybe that's fine if focused on your Chinese community.”
I'm Korean. Everything's in English.
This is what non-white maintainers deal with.

altbot v2.4 is here!!
just pushed a pretty significant update, swapped out the old gemma3 27b model for qwen3-vl:30b-a3b-thinking and holy shit the difference is noticeable
the cool thing about this model is it's very dynamic, simple images get quick, concise descriptions without overexplaining everything. and with complex images, it takes its time and actually thinks through what it's looking at. you get better alt-text without wasting compute on stuff that doesn't need it.
basically: smarter where it counts, efficient where it doesn't.
oh and here's the part that made me double-check my math: electricity usage dropped by MORE THAN 10x. complex images that used to cost ~0.950 Wh now only use ~0.092 Wh. this is thanks to MoE (mixture of experts) architecture, despite being a 30b parameter model, it only activates 3b worth of parameters at a time. so you get way better results while using a fraction of the power.
been testing this for a bit now and honestly really happy with the results. descriptions are more accurate, less hallucination-y, and the model describes way better than before.
as always, altbot is fully open source and processes everything locally, no data gets sent to third parties. your images stay private.

I am digging through some PyTorch code, and ... I have to say: The Nvidia profiling infrastructure is very much no good. Terrible UX, terrible at answering the questions I need answered.
