　大大的開源與小小的島：源來適你社群線上座談紀錄】

還記得軟體自由電子報 #15 報導過的「最強取暖小圈圈」"源來適你" 社群嗎？於 2025 年 11 月風光舉辦成立大會的 Apache 台灣分部，就是孕育自 "源來適你"。

年底，"源來適你" 社群舉辦了「大大的開源與小小的島」線上座談，蔡嘉平、葉佑欣與莊偉赳三位 Apache 社群的 ASF Member 分享開源社群發展的觀察與經驗。小編受邀旁聽這場座談，並做了文字紀錄。

三人從社群經營者的角度出發，談論台灣開源人才培育的困境、與企業及政府互動的現實，以及個人參與開源的意義，非常精彩喔！

An excellent in-depth on the dangerous, unlawful U.S. attack on Venezuela. justsecurity.org/127981/intern 1/

“[S]triking Venezuela and abducting its president, is clearly a violation of the prohibition on the use of force in Article 2(4) of the UN Charter. That prohibition is the bedrock rule of the international system that separates the rule of law from anarchy, safeguards small States from their more powerful neighbors, and protects civilians from the devastation of war.”

ICE continues to terrorize MSP. It continues to be distressing and exhausting; the incredible volume of counter-organizing and community action continues to give me heart.

One thing that’s not surprising but I haven’t seen covered much: ICE is redlining. They swarm over very specific neighborhoods; the abductions (so far) happen almost entirely within clear boundaries. Those boundaries don’t entirely correspond to where immigrants live. They do, however, seem to correspond pretty closely to •political• boundaries that are / are not heavily white.

The biggest change in my lifetime which I have seen and experienced was going from a society where most people had a base level of trust. We have gone from that to *everything* being a scam by default and nothing you see or read is real.

iOS 7 era discourse did us a huge disservice by not separating skeuomorphism from pre-composed, asset-based UI – think Photoshop-exported 9-slices at multiple resolutions. If you want to consider bringing back the former you need to realize the latter is no longer viable (device variants, a11y, tooling)

Dune reading progress - book 5 - actively enjoying this one, actually! It's a different angle on the universe, and I'm pretty gripped. Let's see what I think by the end...

I plan to read up to and including book 6, then stop.

Anti-Aging Injection Regrows Knee Cartilage and Prevents Arthritis

Anti-Aging Injection Regrows Knee Cartilage and Prevents Arthritis

A treatment that blocks an age-related protein restored cartilage in aging and injured joints by reprogramming existing cells rather than using stem cells. Researchers at Stanford Medicine report that blocking a protein linked to aging can restore cartilage that naturally wears away in the knees

@lopalasiLorena Jaume-Palasí thank you for your critical reflections. I understand the "Digital Independence Day" proposal as a call to people to change one digital dependency a time, one day a month. Indeed EU countries are not colonies of the USA as European countries did in the Global South and still do. But we can see many forms of neocolonialism. In concrete in the digital age we see how a dozen big tech corporations from the US dominate in Europe, extracting only for cloud services approx 250 billion €/yr

@WtebbensWouter Tebbens ⁂ ain’t that a relativization of colonialism? And again, if we take a closer look, does your description really depict the political and economical dynamics in the EU or rather distract from our own role as EUsians in the current status quo, in which the EU is most certainly not dominated, but dominating party. Just look at our technical infrastructures, the range and scope of our laws, the raw materials deals, which EU companies are involved and profiting etc etc

I said previously: "No tech from blockchain dates later than 2001. Crypto added nothing." circumstances.run/@davidgerard

Both here and on bsky, I got crypto fans saying "ah ah ah zero knowledge proofs!" These are indeed used in Monero (money laundering coin) and assorted failed money laundering coins!

However, claiming *credit* to cryptocurrency for ZKPs seems implausible.

I'm actually looking into this and I can find shit that isn't proposals for other failed money laundering coins.

Closest a proponent got was, well, cryptocurrency *funded* it. (No examples, just the blank statment.)

So I'm asking those claiming cryptocurrency drove ZK proof research and uses: which papers with which effects and which resulting products are you thinking of? With checkable details. Thanks.

David Gerard (@davidgerard@circumstances.run)

Statements of the form "the AI bubble will crash but the *technology* will remain" are vacuous. Stop making them. The useful tech is the transformer, which already existed and was useful. Generative AI brings no new usefulness to the table, even in business terms, without a VC-funded bubble. The same guys were making the same vacuous statement about bitcoin and blockchain. No tech from blockchain dates later than 2001. Crypto added nothing. Whether AI or crypto, it's a dumb statement shallow people make thinking it makes them sound smart. and if you follow up with "but it's useful to meeeeeeeeee" I'll just block you. Assume I've heard your excuse and it's bad. I can't think of a single excuse of the "AI is here to stay" form that survives the crash. Here's a catalogue: https://pivot-to-ai.com/2025/07/10/ai-is-here-to-stay-is-it-though-what-do-you-mean-stay/ even "the maths will remain" isn't for sure. ML as a research field has been heavily corrupted by LLM money, down to accepting spinning a roulette wheel in methodology. ML is headed for one doozy of a replication crisis, if they don't just throw out most of the past few years. Start over at 2022, maybe. AI is a room full of VCs who've gone from wondering who's the bagholder to wondering if they're *all* the bagholders meanwhile Jensen is driving off in a dumptruck filled with all their actual dollar money, whistling a jaunty tune.

You may have heard that the maintainer of med-mastodon.com, a large, prominent Mastodon server, recently decided to shut down the server without warning, leaving his users with no access to their data.
This could happen to you at any time.
If you care about this, you should be backing up your data regularly.
Here's a post I just wrote about how to do that, and about what you can do with your backed-up data.

RE: infosec.exchange/@jerry/115832

I seem to have cornfused many people yesterday, so to clear the air:

Yes, I know that last year was the first time FIFA ever gave out this award

Yes, I am aware that it was invented and awarded by the head of FIFA to curry favor with Trump, who was still in shock that he was passed over for the Nobel Prize

Yes, I’m aware that the main thing this award represents is corruption.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

일단 가장 큰 문제점이 뽑뽀를 못 시킨다는 점이다 루카리오가 다른 푸키먼과 뽑뽀를 아무리 시도해봤자 머리가 도넛 모양이 아닌 이상 뽑뽀를 하지 못 할 것이다... 특히 동종 개체 간의 뽑뽀는 상상조차 못 해볼 것이다 뽑뽀조차 하지 못하는 루카리오들은 진화를 한 순간부터는 뽑뽀도 할 수 없는 몸이 되어버렸다는 절망과 외로움에 사무쳐 죽을 것이다... 너무나 슬픈 이야기인것인것인것인것이엇따,,,

I gave a lightning talk at a bunch of conferences in 2025 about some of the exciting new things coming in Python 3.14, including template strings.

One thing we can use t-strings for is to prevent SQL injection. I illustrated this with xkcd 327 aka “Little Bobby Tables”.

I localised most of the slides for the PyCon I was at, including this comic. Here they are!

“There’s this myth building around cars that we had this love affair, and it was the inevitable march of progress that got us all behind the wheel. But at the outset, that was not the case at all.

There was deep, deep resistance, and we’ve forgotten that because none of us know a world without cars. Getting people to understand that this was not inevitable is the first step toward changing our future trajectory”

I wish Swift had `folder` visibility. Sometimes I need cross-file access but don’t want to make something API without the overhead of just one more target, bro, I promise, just one more Package.swift
