I had a great time at #FOSSY 2025, organized by @conservancy, and I finally got around to writing a blog post! 😳 Included are links to the video and slides of my presentation RAGtime with #Postgres: #AI Power with #pgvector and Retrieval-Augmented Generation!
Aaron WolfAt #FOSSY2025 I *expected* to hear insights about craziness, risks, and prospects for #AI in context of #FLO freedoms and development
Bit surprised. Less AI-focus than expected, and mostly about practical issues and pitfalls of AI tools today
Most people had not heard of big-picture perspectives I've been focusing on like:
Nexus by Yuval Noah Harari

https://dek.ai/ "Parenting AI"
Etc.
n8 Doesn't follow you 🇺🇦Things I had good conversations about during my time in Portland for #fossy2025 :
- backfilling old blogs with fake RSS content
- whether red cupcakes have more fruit content and thus are healthier
- bad acronyms
- whether Rust as a language is limited by the fact that the syntax is unpronounceable and thus people cannot discuss it over a beverage
- quality podcasts about fountain pens

Tom LechnerSome sketching practice at the fabulous #Fossy2025 #Fossy open source software conference this past weekend. Organized by the Software Freedom Conservancy and lots of volunteers, with Portland's OpenSignal filming everything and streaming live. Talk recordings to come if you missed it! Topics such as microtonal music, quantum computing to detect gravity waves, oss in education, lots more. Somewhat more productive than doomscrolling!

BY THE WAY, if you're looking for the $75 USD rooms for #fossy2026 announced at the #fossy2025 closing address, they're in an entirely separate "budget rooms" tab. #fossy
Brendan ConoboyEnd of #FOSSY2025, next up? #FOSSY2026 in Vancouver, BC August 6-9 at UBC! This year's #FOSSY has been great. I hope more Red Hatters can join next year.
