Dear X-verse, can you help me test an app I created?
It's called Qaku - Q&A over Waku - qaku.app/
It is a stateless webapp which only relies on @Waku_org for short-lived Q&As. It is fully decentralized - the only infra is Waku Network and Qaku browser instances.
It uses Event Sourcing approach to resolve current state and Waku Store protocol as a "database" (hence the short-liveness of the Q&A as they go eventually dumped from Store nodes)
Please go an play around with it, create a Q&A, record feedback and let me know what works, what doesn't and what do you think in general.
I'd like to push for Qaku to be actually used internally, but would appreciate feedback from random humans of the world:)
Here is an existing Q&A, so you can post your feedback there, so that we get a big one:)
qaku.app/q/X0d906767/4brh37

Today, we're shipping a series of features that move uv beyond a pip alternative, and into an end-to-end solution for managing Python projects, command-line tools, single-file scripts, and even Python itself.
A single, unified tool. Like Cargo, for Python.
It's very fast.
If it passes, remove all the apps from official stores, push people to use open-source decentralized, unstoppable alternatives... *cough* @ethstatus *cough* @matrixdotorg *cough*
In case Chat Control 2.0 becomes a reality, I hope @Apple and @WhatsApp follow @signalapp’s footsteps and withdraw their messaging services from the EU.
The rest of the world should not suffer from our inability to stop mass surveillance.

Interesting stuff here, impressed by @radicle
Hele, je v #Brno @brnomycity nějaké místo jako @Paralelni_polis? Kde by se scházeli lidi, kteří mají rádi svobodu, decentralizaci, soukromí, technologie, alternativní myšlenky, anarchyi atd.?
Ptám se kvůli lu.ma/la3 a tomu kde to případně zpropagovat:)
A small meetup I am organizing during @devconf_cz :)
Calling all #cypherpunks and #opensource enthusiasts:)
Register now to join us at Logos Assembly Brno (lu.ma/la3) – during @devconf_cz.
At this free event, learn why cypherpunks write code, how open-source can elevate humanity, and about the Logos technology stack.
It’s limited capacity (registration is essential!)
Who out there is using Python and developing or deploying with continer images? I'd love to have a chat about your workflow, especially if you're doing anything data science related.
Very nice talk by @mihaimaruseac which proposes already existing solutions such as SLSA or @projectsigstore to secure AI/ML the same way as traditional software @packagingcon – at Berlin, Germany
If you want to know how much engineering effort it takes to keep container images vulnerability free, check @adrianmouat talk on @wolfi_os used in @chainguard_dev images. @packagingcon #Security – at Berlin, Germany
I will talk tomorrow at @packagingcon about the open source tooling to protect AI supply chain as mentioned in the linked blog
We are excited to announce a new frontier in our efforts to have a secure and safer AI: open source tools to protect AI Supply Chains and a bug bounty program to foster research on generative AI threats - blog.google/technology/safet…
"We’re building on our prior work with the @openssf to show how ML model creators can and should protect against ML supply chain attacks by using #SLSA and #Sigstore" - security.googleblog.com/2023…
📦 Great talk by @baszalmstra with interesting stuff. It's definitely worth checking out what's happening at @prefix_dev. @packagingcon – at Schöneberg, Berlin
I started a podcast with @pyblogsal about #Python internals. We call it "core.py", hope you like it!
The first episode is about the core sprint in Brno where we spent last week.
podcasters.spotify.com/pod/s… – at Poznan, Poland
We are ready to announce rip – a @rustlang crate to resolve and install Python packages from @pypi. It builds on our work on resolvo (a fast SAT solver) and rattler. We are deeply integrating rip into pixi to unify the @condaproject & @pypi ecosystems.

The new CISA #JCDC guideliness on "Improving Security of Open Source Software in Operational Technology and Industrial Control Systems" came together with input from Google's Open Source Security Team (GOSST)

Open source AI models will soon become unbeatable.
Period.
The pace of open-source LLM innovation and research is breath-taking
I suspect that open-source will soon become unbeatable for anyone except maybe OpenAI
Here's why
- Open-source community is way bigger than any specific company
- Safety lobotomy and fear of bad press will continue will impact proprietary model performance
- Smaller models that are instruct / fine-tuned are performing as well as 50x bigger models
- Smaller models are more efficient and cheaper than large models
- Companies will leverage open-source and offer value-added services and APIs
The blockchain meetups we organize in Brno are getting fuller every month! 🙏
This time, we have a talk on the topic #web3privacy by @vpavlin! 🔥
