Le Fediverse, une nouvelle étape durable dans l’auto-hébergement

Il y a quelques mois, un premier cap avait été franchi avec la migration d’Umbrel vers YunoHost. Cet article racontait surtout un basculement : passer d’un environnement rassurant, mais parfois trop opaque, à une solution pensée pour simplifier l’administration serveur et démocratiser l’auto-hébergement, tout en restant ancrée dans l’univers Debian et du logiciel libre. Depuis, [...]

Nice to see a Mastodon shout-out on The Daily Show last night, thanks to @eff Executive Director Cindy Cohn!

It's a longer segment, with some interesting nuance around social media and censorship later in the conversation.

> how old are you?

I am old enough to remember encyclopedias coming in 25+ big book volumes &the only place to find and read thme was the school library.

No normal family in my country could afford a full encyclopedia due to cost, but some grants or rich folks with good fortune donated such books to our school library. Reading was fun in young days and seeing even many black and white pictures helped in those books take trips into the future or past. Good times & so many memories.

the precise timeline of how OpenAI fucked over the RAM market

> October 2025: Sam Altman flies to Seoul and signs simultaneous deals with Samsung and SK Hynix for 900,000 DRAM wafers per month. That's 40% of global supply. Neither company knew the other was signing a near-identical commitment at the same time.

edit: this guy is a seriously bot-pilled pumper, but this seems to be a good summary of known facts. doubt the AI memory use trick he mentions is load bearing tho.

Aakash Gupta (@aakashgupta)

The timeline on this is genuinely insane. October 2025: Sam Altman flies to Seoul and signs simultaneous deals with Samsung and SK Hynix for 900,000 DRAM wafers per month. That's 40% of global supply. Neither company knew the other was signing a near-identical commitment at the same time. Those deals were letters of intent. Non-binding. No RAM actually changed hands. But the market treated them as gospel. Contract DRAM prices jumped 171%. A 64GB DDR5 kit went from $190 to $700 in three months. December 2025: Micron kills Crucial, its 29-year-old consumer memory brand, to reallocate every wafer to AI and enterprise customers. The company explicitly said it was exiting consumer memory to "improve supply and support for our larger, strategic customers in faster-growing segments." Translation: the AI demand signal was so loud that selling RAM to PC builders stopped making financial sense. March 2026: Google publishes TurboQuant, a compression algorithm that reduces AI memory requirements by 6x with zero accuracy loss. Cloudflare's CEO called it "Google's DeepSeek." The entire thesis that AI would consume infinite memory forever just got a six-month expiration date on it. Same month: OpenAI and Oracle cancel the Abilene Stargate expansion. The $500 billion data center vision that justified the RAM deals couldn't survive its own financing terms. Bloomberg attributed the collapse partly to OpenAI's "often-changing demand forecasting." MU is now down ~33% from its post-earnings high. Revenue up 196% year over year, EPS up 682%, and the stock is in freefall because the company restructured its entire business around a demand signal that came from non-binding letters and is now being compressed out of existence by a research paper. Micron bet the consumer division on Sam Altman's signature. The signature was worth exactly what the paper said: nothing binding.

I'm super grateful for the wonderful help of Fediverse people in translating my video "introducing the Fediverse" (20 languages!) and - recently - some of my writing.

My love letter to the Fediverse - making the case for its adoption by public institutions - has been translated into French, Italian and Polish!

I've updated the article with links:

Thank you @hachem for the French translation, @macfranc for the Italian one and dziękuję @oaj for the Polish one 💖

Openness, transparency and reach: three reasons why public institutions should embrace the Fediverse

An article making the case that the Fediverse is a fantastic communication platform for public institutions - because of its openness, transparency and reach.

Open Letter to European Citizens
The door to digital sovereignty is open, please come in
We ask European citizens, and through them those who govern European countries, to understand one important thing: the door to digital sovereignty does not open simply by choosing different software, but by understanding what sovereignty actually entails.
It requires open document formats, open fonts, continuity of expertise, and honesty about what "open" means.
