@ChaooCharles@Dev_Williee Clearly not everyone likes AI, and knowing you can use it like this makes the client not appreciate the solution, might even pay less for it, you have to 'put a piece of yourself in there' ..that personal feel, considering it's easier now with AI, you can do a whole lot more..imo
I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.
Huge thanks to all the open source projects that've made a lot of the tech we rely on in the world possible:
Linux
Git
FFmpeg
PyTorch & TensorFlow
Apache & Nginx
MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite
Chromium & Firefox
GCC & LLVM
Docker & Kubernetes
Also, all the open-weight LLMs... and all the programming language interpreters, compilers, and frameworks.
I can list 100+ more "niche" open source projects I've used & loved (e.g., OpenCV ❤️). But I just wanted to give a continued big thank you to the open source community for everything you do for humanity 🙏
@AstraKernel In swahili, we say 'Mchangua jembe si mkulima' (a chooser of a farming tool is not a farmer)
lets be real, there's always a right tool for the job...this arguments of which is better is just people protecting their tool, rather we should appreciate at how many are at disposal
@jrobah Still hooked on how easy it is to export a postman to curl or import from curl.. But its creepy, that another party has your api + variables... Bring back postman offline!!! @getpostman
We’re launching a new @supabase service:

It’s like if ChatGPT and Postgres had a love-child: launch as many databases as you want, build them with AI, create charts, create embeddings. 100% open source.
Fresh from the oven! You can now deploy your notebooks as applications, directly to your infrastructure, with one click: https://t.co/Jw1ZbPomeB

The one thing I've been jealous of from the JS ecosystem is a set of beautiful, out of the box components.
So I'm working on Bloom, an open-source Phoenix component library with installable UI.

#MyElixirStatus
The new 'sort_param' and 'drop_param' features in Ecto 3.10 are a little confusing. It feels like it works kinda like magic. You define the right hidden inputs and the right changesets and... it just works. I wrote some components to make it feel a little less magical.
Elixir v1.17 performs type inference of structs/maps fields with type checking of field and function access, bringing users meaningful warnings without changes to code!
For example, if you try to invoke an unknown field on a struct, the compiler will now let you know. See below:
@anitaavicky@officialntino_ This verse.. God's word. lifted me up when i was at the edge... stuck with me to this day. Thank you Lord for peace in such a stormy life. 🙏
