Open source projects benefit from support that takes many shapes. Kat Cosgrove shares her experience across the Kubernetes project and the different ways people can make meaningful contributions to it. One of the underlying themes is that code is written for other people. That means PRs need to be understandable, discussions need to be enlightening, documentation needs to be clear, and collaboration needs to cross all sorts of boundaries.

⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥Modern application development depends on open source packages moving at extraordinary speed. Paul McCarty, Offensive Security Specialist focused on software supply chain threats, explains why that speed has quietly reshaped risk across development pipelines, developer laptops, and CI environments.JavaScript dominates modern software delivery, and the npm registry has become the largest package ecosystem in the world. Millions of packages, thousands of daily updates, and deeply nested dependency chainsഴ് often exceeding a thousand indirect dependencies per application. That scale creates opportunity, not only for innovation, but for adversaries who understand how developers actually build software.This conversation focuses on a shift that security leaders can no longer ignore. Malicious packages are not exploiting accidental coding errors. They are intentionally engineered to steal credentials, exfiltrate secrets, and compromise environments long before traditional security tools see anything wrong. Attacks increasingly begin on developer machines through social engineering and poisoned repositories, then propagate into CI pipelines where access density and sensitive credentials converge.Paul outlines why many existing security approaches fall short. Vulnerability databases were built for mistakes, not hostile code. AppSec teams are overloaded burning down backlogs. Security operations teams rarely receive meaningful telemetry from build systems. The result is a visibility gap where malicious code can run, disappear, and leave organizations unsure what was touched or stolen.The episode also explores why simple advice like “only use vetted packages” fails in practice. Open source ecosystems move too fast for manual approval models, and internal package repositories often collapse under friction. Meanwhile, attackers exploit maintainer accounts, typosquatting domains, and ecosystem trust to reach billions of downstream installations in a single event.This discussion challenges security leaders to rethink how software supply chain risk is defined, detected, and owned. The problem is no longer theoretical, and it no longer lives only in development teams. It sits at the intersection of intellectual property, identity, and delivery velocity, demanding attention from anyone responsible for protecting modern software-driven organizations.⬥GUEST⬥Paul McCarty, NPM Hacker and Software Supply Chain Researcher  | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mccartypaul/⬥HOST⬥Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥RESOURCES⬥LinkedIn Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mccartypaul_i-want-to-introduce-you-to-my-latest-project-activity-7396297753196363776-1N-TOpen Source Malware Database: https://opensourcemalware.comOpenSSF Scorecard Project: https://securityscorecards.dev⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

Podcast: Exploited: The Cyber Truth Episode: When Open Source Gets You Into Hot Water: Copyleft Risk in Embedded SystemsPub date: 2025-12-11Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationOpen source accelerates development in embedded systems, but hidden license obligations can quickly create legal and operational risk. In this episode of Exploited: The Cyber Truth, host Paul Ducklin is joined by RunSafe Security Founder and CEO Joseph M. Saunders and Salim Blume, Director of Security Applications, for a look at how copyleft risk emerges and why compliance in embedded products is more challenging than many teams expect. Salim breaks down how restrictive licenses, such as GPL and AGPL, can force the disclosure of proprietary code, interrupt product shipments, or create exposure long after devices are deployed in the field. Joe shares why accurate SBOMs, automated license checks, and enforcing policy at build time are critical to preventing surprises in downstream products. The discussion also touches on the ongoing Vizio case, where the TV manufacturer faces litigation that could compel public release of source code under the GPL, highlighting how open source obligations can surface years after products hit the market. Together, Paul, Joe, and Salim explore: How copyleft obligations can require source-code disclosureWhy embedded environments complicate license complianceReal-world cases where unnoticed GPL dependencies caused major issues, such as Vizio's GPL lawsuit and Cisco's WRT54G router familyThe growing implications of AGPL for SaaS and connected servicesHow build-time SBOMs and automated controls reduce long-term risk Whether you're building connected devices, managing software supply chain compliance, or protecting proprietary IP, this episode offers practical guidance to reduce copyleft risk before it becomes a costly problem.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from RunSafe Security, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

Philips durfde ruim twee jaar geen overnames te doen. Alle tijd en geld ging op aan de slaapapneu-affaire. Maar die tijd is voorbij: het bedrijf lijft de Amerikaanse start-up Spectrawave in. Geen gigantisch bedrijf, met zo'n 70 medewerkers, maar toch: gaat Philips nog meer op overnamejacht? Dat bespreken we deze aflevering. Daarin vertellen we je ook over Nvdia. Sinds de chipmaker groen licht heeft van de VS om de op-een-na-beste AI-chips aan China te leveren, stromen de bestellingen binnen. Klein detail: China wil die chips helemaal niet hebben. Duiken we ook nog op het SpaceX van Elon Musk. Vorige week lekte al uit dat er een beursgang aankomt en vandaag lijkt dat weer een stapje zekerder. En je hoort over het bedrijf achter de robotstofzuiger Roomba: dat is ter ziele gegaan. Te gast is Nico Inberg van De Aandeelhouder, die het hele verhaal rond OCI en Orascom alvast aanwijst als 'scam van het jaar'.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, eco & Tyler welcome back Skot who was at the African Bitcoin Conference, this year hosted in Mauritius, where he spoke on open-source Bitcoin mining. We swap travel tales (including Scott's chaotic Paris layover) and impressions of Mauritius, the conference venue, and side events focused on Bitcoin education. We dig into mining headlines: Bitdeer's missed ASIC roadmap and investor lawsuit, Bitmain's history (Antbleed) and why open-source mining matters, and MicroBT's M70-series lineup pushing industrial-scale, three-phase miners. Skot explains the theory behind Bitdeer's hyped “adiabatic charge recovery logic,” why it's hard to scale, and how thermal and power density realities define miner design. We go deep on open hardware and firmware progress: Braiins' open control board, Secure Boot obstacles, and Mujina's modular path to safe, customizable, dev-fee-free mining; plus Skot's BitCrain control board concept for USB‑controlled fleets. We share shop-floor lessons building AddIt boards and Ember One prototypes (solder paste, tombstoning, reflow profiles) and celebrate practical innovation like Gridless's open-source JuaKali direct-DC solar mining kit. On home-mining UX, Tyler demos new Home Assistant integrations for Canaan Avalons and WhatsMiner, and we preview Hydra Pool deployments (Grafana/Prometheus dashboards) for the upcoming Telehash. Finally, we update the community on the Samourai Wallet case: Keonne's facility designation, the continuing push for a presidential pardon, and how to support via petition and donations. #PardonSamourai.

Nvidia Distinguished Engineer Kevin Klues noted that low-level systems work is invisible when done well and highly visible when it fails — a dynamic that frames current Kubernetes innovations for AI. At KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2025, Klues and AWS product manager Jesse Butler discussed two emerging capabilities: dynamic resource allocation (DRA) and a new workload abstraction designed for sophisticated AI scheduling.DRA, now generally available in Kubernetes 1.34, fixes long-standing limitations in GPU requests. Instead of simply asking for a number of GPUs, users can specify types and configurations. Modeled after persistent volumes, DRA allows any specialized hardware to be exposed through standardized interfaces, enabling vendors to deliver custom device drivers cleanly. Butler called it one of the most elegant designs in Kubernetes.Yet complex AI workloads require more coordination. A forthcoming workload abstraction, debuting in Kubernetes 1.35, will let users define pod groups with strict scheduling and topology rules — ensuring multi-node jobs start fully or not at all. Klues emphasized that this abstraction will shape Kubernetes' AI trajectory for the next decade and encouraged community involvement.Learn more from The New Stack about dynamic resource allocation: Kubernetes Primer: Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) for GPU WorkloadsKubernetes v1.34 Introduces Benefits but Also New Blind SpotsJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

At KubeCon North America 2025, GitLab's Emilio Salvador outlined how developers are shifting from individual coders to leaders of hybrid human–AI teams. He envisions developers evolving into “cognitive architects,” responsible for breaking down large, complex problems and distributing work across both AI agents and humans. Complementing this is the emerging role of the “AI guardian,” reflecting growing skepticism around AI-generated code. Even as AI produces more code, humans remain accountable for reviewing quality, security, and compliance.Salvador also described GitLab's “AI paradox”: developers may code faster with AI, but overall productivity stalls because testing, security, and compliance processes haven't kept pace. To fix this, he argues organizations must apply AI across the entire development lifecycle, not just in coding. GitLab's Duo Agent Platform aims to support that end-to-end transformation.Looking ahead, Salvador predicts the rise of a proactive “meta agent” that functions like a full team member. Still, he warns that enterprise adoption remains slow and advises organizations to start small, build skills, and scale gradually.Learn more from The New Stack about the evolving role of "cognitive architects":The Engineer in the AI Age: The Orchestrator and ArchitectThe New Role of Enterprise Architecture in the AI EraThe Architect's Guide to Understanding Agentic AIJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Avec deux millions de modèles d'intelligence artificielle générative disponibles, la startup franco-américaine Hugging Face est devenue la référence en matière d'IA open source. Elle prend désormais le virage des agents IA et de la robotique.Interview : Jeff Boudier, Directeur commercial chez Hugging FaceVous proposez aujourd'hui plus de deux millions de modèles sur Hugging Face, comment expliquer une telle diversité ?L'IA ne se limite pas aux LLM comme ChatGPT : c'est un écosystème immense, une véritable foret amazonienne. Sur Hugging Face, on trouve des modèles qui génèrent du texte, mais aussi des images, de la vidéo, du son, qui travaillent dans toutes les langues ou encore sur des applications métiers comme la finance.Notre mission est claire : démocratiser l'IA. Nous ne voulons pas d'un monde dominé par une poignée d'acteurs. Toute organisation, quelle que soit sa taille, doit pouvoir construire sa propre IA.Pour cela, nous hébergeons des millions de modèles, datasets et applications, et nous fournissons des outils open source comme nos librairies d'entraînement ou l'écosystème Spaces, notre véritable App Store de l'IA. Plus de 12 millions d'AI builders les utilisent aujourd'hui.Pourquoi vous être lancé aussi dans la robotique ?Nous publions de nombreuses ressources scientifiques — de véritables “bouquins techniques” comme The Ultra-Scale Playbook — pour aider la communauté à comprendre et construire des modèles, mais il fallait aussi quelque chose de plus tangible pour le grand public. C'est là qu'intervient Richie Mini, notre robot pédagogique conçu avec Pollen Robotics (que nous avons acquis). Il écoute, voit, parle, interagit… et permet d'expérimenter concrètement avec des modèles de vision ou de parole. Le lancement a dépassé toutes nos attentes : plus de 5 000 robots vendus le premier mois, disponibles dans le monde entier pour environ 300 dollars.Les agents IA sont-ils la prochaine révolution ?Oui, les agents représentent clairement l'évolution naturelle de l'IA. L'an dernier, à AWS re:Invent, on parlait d'IA générative. Cette année, tout tourne autour des agents. Un agent ne se contente plus de générer une réponse : il choisit des outils, raisonne, explore plusieurs chemins avant d'aboutir. Cela ouvre d'immenses possibilités mais aussi de nouveaux défis, notamment technologiques et économiques : un système agent peut consommer des millions de tokens, ce qui change complètement l'équation du coût. Heureusement, les modèles ouverts ont fait un bond spectaculaire. Chaque semaine, un nouveau modèle open source de pointe apparaît sur Hugging Face : Mistral 3, DeepSeek V3.2, Qwen, etc. Avec Hugging Chat, on peut créer soi-même un agent capable de naviguer, raisonner ou utiliser des outils.-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

Michael #1: PEP 798: Unpacking in Comprehensions After careful deliberation, the Python Steering Council is pleased to accept PEP 798 – Unpacking in Comprehensions. Examples [*it for it in its] # list with the concatenation of iterables in 'its' {*it for it in its} # set with the union of iterables in 'its' {**d for d in dicts} # dict with the combination of dicts in 'dicts' (*it for it in its) # generator of the concatenation of iterables in 'its' Also: The Steering Council is happy to unanimously accept “PEP 810, Explicit lazy imports” Brian #2: Pandas 3.0.0rc0 Pandas 3.0.0 will be released soon, and we're on Release candidate 0 Here's What's new in Pands 3.0.0 Dedicated string data type by default Inferred by default for string data (instead of object dtype) The str dtype can only hold strings (or missing values), in contrast to object dtype. (setitem with non string fails) The missing value sentinel is always NaN (np.nan) and follows the same missing value semantics as the other default dtypes. Copy-on-Write The result of any indexing operation (subsetting a DataFrame or Series in any way, i.e. including accessing a DataFrame column as a Series) or any method returning a new DataFrame or Series, always behaves as if it were a copy in terms of user API. As a consequence, if you want to modify an object (DataFrame or Series), the only way to do this is to directly modify that object itself. pd.col syntax can now be used in DataFrame.assign() and DataFrame.loc() You can now do this: df.assign(c = pd.col('a') + pd.col('b')) New Deprecation Policy Plus more - Michael #3: typos You've heard about codespell … what about typos? VSCode extension and OpenVSX extension. From Sky Kasko: Like codespell, typos checks for known misspellings instead of only allowing words from a dictionary. But typos has some extra features I really appreciate, like finding spelling mistakes inside snake_case or camelCase words. For example, if you have the line: *connecton_string = "sqlite:///my.db"* codespell won't find the misspelling, but typos will. It gave me the output: *error: `connecton` should be `connection`, `connector` ╭▸ ./main.py:1:1 │1 │ connecton_string = "sqlite:///my.db" ╰╴━━━━━━━━━* But the main advantage for me is that typos has an LSP that supports editor integrations like a VS Code extension. As far as I can tell, codespell doesn't support editor integration. (Note that the popular Code Spell Checker VS Code extension is an unrelated project that uses a traditional dictionary approach.) For more on the differences between codespell and typos, here's a comparison table I found in the typos repo: https://github.com/crate-ci/typos/blob/master/docs/comparison.md By the way, though it's not mentioned in the installation instructions, typos is published on PyPI and can be installed with uv tool install typos, for example. That said, I don't bother installing it, I just use the VS Code extension and run it as a pre-commit hook. (By the way, I'm using prek instead of pre-commit now; thanks for the tip on episode #448!) It looks like typos also publishes a GitHub action, though I haven't used it. Brian #4: A couple testing topics slowlify suggested by Brian Skinn Simulate slow, overloaded, or resource-constrained machines to reproduce CI failures and hunt flaky tests. Requires Linux with cgroups v2 Why your mock breaks later Ned Badthelder Ned's taught us before to “Mock where the object is used, not where it's defined.” To be more explicit, but probably more confusing to mock-newbies, “don't mock things that get imported, mock the object in the file it got imported to.” See? That's probably worse. Anyway, read Ned's post. If my project myproduct has user.py that uses the system builtin open() and we want to patch it: DONT DO THIS: @patch("builtins.open") This patches open() for the whole system DO THIS: @patch("myproduct.user.open") This patches open() for just the user.py file, which is what we want Apparently this issue is common and is mucking up using coverage.py Extras Brian: The Rise and Rise of FastAPI - mini documentary “Building on Lean” chapter of LeanTDD is out The next chapter I'm working on is “Finding Waste in TDD” Notes to delete before end of show: I'm not on track for an end of year completion of the first pass, so pushing goal to 1/31/26 As requested by a reader, I'm releasing both the full-so-far versions and most-recent-chapter Michael: My Vanishing Gradient's episode is out Django 6 is out Joke: tabloid - A minimal programming language inspired by clickbait headlines

Peter Van Valkenburgh is the Executive Director of Coin Center, a leading nonprofit research and advocacy group focused on cryptocurrency policy. In this episode, Peter joins The Bitcoin Frontier to explore why defending the right to self-custody is about much more than bitcoin — it's about the future of individual freedom, open-source innovation, and financial privacy. We dig into the parallels between the 1990s “crypto wars” and today's digital sovereignty battles, the threats facing developers of privacy tools, and the constitutional foundations for privacy and property in the digital age.SUPPORT THE PODCAST: → Subscribe → Leave a review → Share the show with your friends and family → Send us an email: podcast@unchained.com → Learn more about Unchained: https://unchained.com/?utm_source=you... → Book a free call with a bitcoin expert: https://unchained.com/consultation?ut...TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Intro and Peter's journey from acting to bitcoin policy2:00 – Discovering the cypherpunks and the roots of internet freedom4:00 – Entering bitcoin through law school and meeting Jerry Brito6:00 – Founding Coin Center and defining “permissionless innovation”9:00 – The mission: protecting the freedom to build and use open blockchains11:00 – Bitcoin's privacy problem and the legal risks of building privacy tech13:00 – Educating DC: explaining bitcoin to Congress in the early days16:00 – Navigating the SEC, ICOs, and defining what counts as a security18:30 – The evolution from education to constitutional litigation22:00 – Bitcoin as the revival of a “bearer instrument” economy26:00 – The “secret right to cash” and the Fourth Amendment's blind spot30:00 – Privacy, property, and what bitcoin reveals about constitutional limits35:00 – The Keep Your Coins Act and why it matters for financial sovereignty43:00 – The DOJ's shift toward prosecuting developers — and why it's dangerous46:00 – Inside the Tornado Cash and Samurai Wallet prosecutions50:00 – How Coin Center is fighting for software publishing rights54:00 – Legislative progress: Clarity, Keep Your Coins, and BRCA1:00:00 – Lessons from the 1990s encryption wars1:03:00 – How liability protections shaped (and centralized) the internet1:08:00 – The convenience dilemma: why self-custody must become easier1:12:00 – The Bank Secrecy Act, mass surveillance, and new legal challenges1:19:00 – Coin Center's constitutional lawsuits for privacy and association rights1:23:00 – Why the BSA is ripe for reform — and bitcoin's role in that debate1:27:00 – Zero-knowledge proofs, AML, and a future of privacy-preserving compliance1:29:00 – How self-custody wallets enable digital identity and personal sovereignty1:31:00 – Closing thoughts: bitcoin as the foundation for a freer digital futureWHERE TO FOLLOW US: → Unchained X: https://x.com/unchained → Unchained LinkedIn:   / unchainedcom  → Unchained Newsletter: https://unchained.com/newsletter → Joe Kelly's Twitter: https://x.com/josephkelly → Peter Van Valkenburgh's Twitter: https://x.com/valkenburgh

Jonathan Bryce, the new CNCF executive director, argues that inference—not model training—will define the next decade of computing. Speaking at KubeCon North America 2025, he emphasized that while the industry obsesses over massive LLM training runs, the real opportunity lies in efficiently serving these models at scale. Cloud-native infrastructure, he says, is uniquely suited to this shift because inference requires real-time deployment, security, scaling, and observability—strengths of the CNCF ecosystem. Bryce believes Kubernetes is already central to modern inference stacks, with projects like Ray, KServe, and emerging GPU-oriented tooling enabling teams to deploy and operationalize models. To bring consistency to this fast-moving space, the CNCF launched a Kubernetes AI Conformance Program, ensuring environments support GPU workloads and Dynamic Resource Allocation. With AI agents poised to multiply inference demand by executing parallel, multi-step tasks, efficiency becomes essential. Bryce predicts that smaller, task-specific models and cloud-native routing optimizations will drive major performance gains. Ultimately, he sees CNCF technologies forming the foundation for what he calls “the biggest workload mankind will ever have.” Learn more from The New Stack about inference: Confronting AI's Next Big Challenge: Inference Compute Deep Infra Is Building an AI Inference Cloud for Developers Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Public Money, Public Code: Wenn es sich um öffentliche Gelder handelt, sollte es auch öffentlicher Code sein.Warum zahlen wir eigentlich doppelt? Wir finanzieren Software mit Steuergeld, aber der Code verschwindet hinter verschlossenen Türen. In dieser Episode sprechen wir über Public Money Public Code: Wenn öffentliche Gelder in Software fließen, sollte der Code als Open Source verfügbar sein. Nicht nur fair für die Allgemeinheit, sondern auch strategisch klug für digitale Souveränität und gegen Vendor Lock-in.Gemeinsam mit unserem Gast Johannes Näder, Senior Project Manager Policy bei der Free Software Foundation Europe, tauchen wir in die Praxis ein. Johannes koordiniert die Initiative Public Money Public Code, berät Verwaltung und Politik und hält Vorträge zu nachhaltiger Beschaffung, Openwashing und digitaler Souveränität. Wir klären die Grundlagen freier Software, warum die vier Freiheiten zählen und wieso die Lizenzfrage nicht optional ist. Danach wird es konkret: Wie öffentliche Vergabeverfahren heute funktionieren, was sich mit der EU-Vergabereform ändern könnte, und wie Behörden statt Lizenzpaketen künftig Entwicklung, Maintenance und Support von Open Source einkaufen können.Wir schauen auf Erfolge und Best Practices: Schleswig-Holstein migriert massenhaft auf LibreOffice, das österreichische Bundesheer ist umgestiegen, München investiert wieder in freie Software.

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation has introduced the Certified Kubernetes AI Conformance Program to bring consistency to an increasingly fragmented AI ecosystem. Announced at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2025, the program establishes open, community-driven standards to ensure AI applications run reliably and portably across different Kubernetes platforms. VMware by Broadcom's vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS) is among the first platforms to achieve certification.In an interview with The New Stack, Broadcom leaders Dilpreet Bindra and Himanshu Singh explained that the program applies lessons from Kubernetes' early evolution, aiming to reduce the “muddiness” in AI tooling and improve cross-platform interoperability. They emphasized portability as a core value: organizations should be able to move AI workloads between public and private clouds with minimal friction.VKS integrates tightly with vSphere, using Kubernetes APIs directly to manage infrastructure components declaratively. This approach, along with new add-on management capabilities, reflects Kubernetes' growing maturity. According to Bindra and Singh, this stability now enables enterprises to trust Kubernetes as a foundation for production-grade AI. Learn more from The New Stack about Broadcom's latest updates with Kubernetes: Has VMware Finally Caught Up with Kubernetes?VMware VCF 9.0 Finally Unifies Container and VM ManagementJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Things are getting so dire in the PC-building space that we had to revisit the subject again this week, primarily to discuss the sudden and shocking end of longtime RAM and SSD maker Crucial, with a deeper dive into the way the memory supply chain works and a glimpse into a very dark future where building your own PC might be out of reach for many. We also dig into some new reporting about the Steam Machine's HDMI output, and why open gaming platforms are going to be in conflict with proprietary HDMI standards going forward. Plus, the latest AI nonsense (and how to work around it) in Firefox and Google News.NOTE: We're working on freeing ourselves from the need for Adobe products, so bear with us if the podcast sounds a little different this week.

Today I am honored to speak with Nilo Tabrizy, co-author of a remarkable and powerful book, For the Sun After Long Nights: The Story of Iran's Women-Led Uprising. This interview complements another episode I did with her collaborator, Fatemeh Jamalpour. Ms Tabrizy tells us about her work in Visual Forensics, which she used to complement Ms Jamalpour's reporting on the ground. The two pieces together form a vivid account of the uprising, and the repression that preceded and followed it.  Nilo draws on other examples of Open Source reporting during the #BlackLivesMatter protests and in Palestine. Like her collaborator, Nilo Tabrizy also explains the ways this reporting was for her deeply personal. Nilo Tabrizy is an investigative reporter at The Washington Post. She works for the Visual Forensics team, where she covers Iran using open-source methods. Previously, she was a video journalist at the New York Times, covering Iran, race and policing, abortion access, and more. She is an Emmy nominee and the 2022 winner of the Front Page Award for Online Investigative Reporting. Nilo received her MS in Journalism from Columbia University and her BA in Political Science and French from the University of British Columbia.

In this episode of POD256, Tyler and eco catch up on winter in Colorado, project trucks, and then dive deep into the latest in Bitcoin mining and freedom tech. We recap last week's conversation with Keonne Rodriguez of Samourai Wallet, the urgent push for signatures on the pardon petition, and practical ways to support; while clarifying privacy-friendly ways to sign. We also discuss GrapheneOS stepping back from France amid regulatory pressure, the broader trend of governments targeting toolmakers, and why freedom tech from Bitcoin mining to open hardware matters now more than ever.On the mining front, we showcase Hydra Pool, our open-source non-custodial pool software, now running in our lab and soon to be public for Telehash #3 and beyond. We walk through the Grafana dashboard, PPLNS accounting for up to 100 addresses per coinbase, and our goal to migrate community hash over for solo mining support. We also update on Ember One and Libre Board: open-source hashboard and controller hardware moving through v5 prototyping on our pick-and-place, aiming for developer kits before fully assembled plug‑and‑play units. We hit Bitmain's reported federal probe, solo block wins by small hashers, and the path to open hardware parity. We close with hasher shoutouts and a call to action: sign the Samourai petition and join Telehash to help fund open mining R&D.

See also: elf: Advent of Code CLI helper for Python Michael #2: Django 6 is coming Expected December 2025 Django 6.0 supports Python 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14 Built-in support for the Content Security Policy (CSP) standard is now available, making it easier to protect web applications against content injection attacks such as cross-site scripting (XSS). The Django Template Language now supports template partials, making it easier to encapsulate and reuse small named fragments within a template file. Django now includes a built-in Tasks framework for running code outside the HTTP request–response cycle. This enables offloading work, such as sending emails or processing data, to background workers. Email handling in Django now uses Python's modern email API, introduced in Python 3.6. This API, centered around the email.message.EmailMessage class Brian #3: Advanced, Overlooked Python Typing get_args, TypeGuard, TypeIs, and more goodies Michael #4: codespell Learned from this PR for the Talk Python book. Fix common misspellings in text files. It's designed primarily for checking misspelled words in source code (backslash escapes are skipped), but it can be used with other files as well. It does not check for word membership in a complete dictionary, but instead looks for a set of common misspellings. Therefore it should catch errors like "adn", but it will not catch "adnasdfasdf". It shouldn't generate false-positives when you use a niche term it doesn't know about. Extras Brian: Is mkdocs maintained? Hatch 1.16 Michael: Follow up on tach from Gerben Dekker: tach has been unmaintained for a bit but is not anymore. It was the main product from Gauge which is a Y combinator startup that pivoted to something unrelated and abandoned tach. However, https://github.com/DetachHead forked it but now got access to the main repo and has committed to maintaining it. ruff analyze graph is fully independent of tach - we actually started to look into alternatives for tach when it became unmaintained and then found ruff analyze graph. For our use case, with just a bit of manipulation on top of ruff analyze graph we replaced our use of deptry (which was slower - and I try to be careful depending on one-man projects).

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with Dax Raad, co-founder of OpenCode, for a wide-ranging conversation about open-source development, command-line interfaces, the rise of coding agents, how LLMs change software workflows, the tension between centralization and decentralization in tech, and even what it's like to push the limits of the terminal itself. We talk about the future of interfaces, fast-feedback programming, model switching, and why open-source momentum—especially from China—is reshaping the landscape. You can find Dax on Twitter and check an example of what can be done using OpenCode in this tweet.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop and Dax Raad open with the origins of OpenCode, the value of open source, and the long-tail problem in coding agents. 05:00 They explore why command line interfaces keep winning, the universality of the terminal, and early adoption of agentic workflows. 10:00 Dax explains pushing the terminal with TUI frameworks, rich interactions, and constraints that improve UX. 15:00 They contrast CLI vs. chat UIs, discuss voice-driven reviews, and refining prompt-review workflows. 20:00 Dax lays out fast feedback loops, slow vs. fast models, and why autonomy isn't the goal. 25:00 Conversation turns to model switching, open-source competitiveness, and real developer behavior. 30:00 They examine inference economics, Chinese open-source labs, and emerging U.S. efforts. 35:00 Dax breaks down incumbents like Google and Microsoft and why scale advantages endure. 40:00 They debate centralization vs. decentralization, choice, and the email analogy. 45:00 Stewart reflects on building products; Dax argues for healthy creative destruction. 50:00 Hardware talk emerges—Raspberry Pi, robotics, and LLMs as learning accelerators. 55:00 Dax shares insights on terminal internals, text-as-canvas rendering, and the elegance of the medium.Key InsightsOpen source thrives where the long tail matters. Dax explains that OpenCode exists because coding agents must integrate with countless models, environments, and providers. That complexity naturally favors open source, since a small team can't cover every edge case—but a community can. This creates a collaborative ecosystem where users meaningfully shape the tool.The command line is winning because it's universal, not nostalgic. Many misunderstand the surge of CLI-based AI tools, assuming it's aesthetic or retro. Dax argues it's simply the easiest, most flexible, least opinionated surface that works everywhere—from enterprise laptops to personal dev setups—making adoption frictionless.Terminal interfaces can be richer than assumed. The team is pushing TUI frameworks far beyond scrolling text, introducing mouse support, dialogs, hover states, and structured interactivity. Despite constraints, the terminal becomes a powerful “text canvas,” capable of UI complexity normally reserved for GUIs.Fast feedback loops beat “autonomous” long-running agents. Dax rejects the trend of hour-long AI tasks, viewing it as optimizing around model slowness rather than user needs. He prefers rapid iteration with faster models, reviewing diffs continuously, and reserving slower models only when necessary.Open-source LLMs are improving quickly—and economics matter. Many open models now approach the quality of top proprietary systems while being far cheaper and faster to serve. Because inference is capital-intensive, competition pushes prices down, creating real incentives for developers and companies to reconsider model choices.Centralization isn't the enemy—lack of choice is. Dax frames the landscape like email: centralized providers dominate through convenience and scale, but the open protocols underneath protect users' ability to choose alternatives. The real danger is ecosystems where leaving becomes impossible.LLMs dramatically expand what individuals can learn and build. Both Stewart and Dax highlight that AI enables people to tackle domains previously too opaque or slow to learn—from terminal internals to hardware tinkering. This accelerates creativity and lowers barriers, shifting agency back to small teams and individuals.
