I wanna send some love to one of my favorite resources, the Unified Patents newsletter... Specifically the Standards and Policy Roundup, which they send about 1x/month. There's always multiple articles that are interesting/relevant to me. Thanks to whomever puts it together! www.unifiedpatents.com
Unified Patents | Deter Abuse
Unified Patents is a member-based organization whose goal is deterring the number of bad patent assertions in specific technology areas.

Good morning from Berlin, where #fossbackstage is kicking off! Looking forward to learning about what's "behind the scenes" with Open Source and supporting my friends @jorydotcom and @floscholz at their talk on the economics of @openwebdocs.

If you've been to our Learn site recently, you might have noticed it's been freshened up 💅

Mandi Wise did an awesome job updating graphql.org/learn, adding new pages & overhauling existing ones to make our docs more user-friendly. Read her summary of the work here: graphql.org/blog/2024-12...

My takeaways so far this week:

- Standards work is awesome
- Reactive systems are very cool but quite complex
- Talking about binary encoding does my head in a bit
- There are so many smart people out there... just everywhere
