If you work in the AI industry, it’s time to preserve the engineering innovations you built -- before the risk of a bursting bubble skyrockets.
- Did you build libraries to efficiently analyze specific data formats?
- Did you work on lean and fast serialization?
- Did you create optimizing orchestration tools for GPU-bound tasks with dependencies?
- …
… then please try to get them released as FOSS!
That way you ensure that even if the bubble bursts, the fruits of your labor will survive and their legacy can improve software for decades to come.

On Hyphanet (the original Freenet) there’s been working group chat via a Hyphanet-backed IRC server for over a decade (the server is named FLIP, the first working version was released in 2013, developed purely on Freenet/Hyphanet).
There was no public debate, but he did start to talk to devs 18 months before, and the devs told him quite clearly that they strongly object to repurposing the name.
And that repurposing the name would cause lots of damage.
> What are the content patterns on Freenet? Four patterns were identified. Freenet is (1) an archive of deviant data resistant to censorship (2) a space dominated by content associated with masculinity, (3) a nonmarket space where commercial exchange is non-existent, and (4) an empty space with many requests not returning information, and many flogs abandoned. We asked a third question: How does the analysis of Freenet inform current understandings of hacker culture? Freenet, we suggest, can be understood as a type of digital “wilderness”. It is a singular darknet space, supporting a distinct set of hacker practices
Practically: people in Hyphanet blog about stuff they dare not blog about in the clearnet -- anything from radical politics (from all kinds, left, right, libertarian, …) over personal opinion pages to wilder stuff like magick (yes, in that spelling).
Not to forget the Russian Poet who’s posting daily poems with the goal (as he wrote) that those poems still survive after police knocked at his door.
(besides talk about hyphanet and privacy tech)
So yes: I don’t understand the downvotes either, because it’s a legitimate question with a pretty clear answer: yes.
Providing a concise start, a no-frills, opinionated intro to programming from first define to deploying an application on just 64 pages.
What is Scheme?
Scheme is a programming language — a Lisp — that follows the principle “design not by piling feature on top of feature, but by removing the weaknesses and restrictions that make additional features appear necessary”.
1. takes unlicensed peptides, because the insurance declined to pay for what the doctor prescribed.
2. «“people generally don't try to quantify tail risks.” Among the people I talked to, this is true»
That’s a pretty bad outlook.
