Analysis This week’s top stories highlight a dual-edged sword for open-source: rapid AI model releases from global players like Italy’s Domyn and Chinese firms are democratizing access, but also lowering barriers for cyberattacks, as shown by open-source attack kits and AI tools nearly matching proprietary ones for vulnerability exploitation. Meanwhile, infrastructure initiatives like Akrites (Linux … Read more

Are electric cars really practical in Kenya? 🇰🇪⚡
We visited the Kenya Power E-Mobility Expo at KICC, Nairobi to explore the future of electric transport in Kenya. From electric cars and e-bikes to charging stations and clean energy innovations, we wanted to answer one important question:
Can electric vehicles actually work in Kenya?
In this video, you’ll see:
✅ Electric vehicles on display
✅ EV charging technology in Kenya
✅ Electric bikes and mobility solutions
✅ Conversations with industry experts
✅ The challenges and opportunities facing EV adoption
✅ Our honest thoughts on the future of transport in Kenya
As fuel prices continue to rise and more companies invest in sustainable transport, electric mobility is becoming a major conversation across Africa. But is Kenya ready?
Watch until the end and let us know:
Would you switch from a petrol or diesel vehicle to an electric vehicle?
📍 Location: KICC, Nairobi, Kenya

Why doesn’t PostgreSQL rely on traditional `malloc()` and `free()` for memory management? This session introduces the Memory Context system, one of the core architectural features that helps PostgreSQL remain stable, efficient, and leak-resistant as a long-running database server.
Designed for PostgreSQL developers and new contributors, this talk explains how memory lifecycle management works inside PostgreSQL, why memory contexts are essential, and how key structures such as TopMemoryContext and CacheMemoryContext organize memory allocation. You’ll also learn practical techniques for debugging memory usage and understanding PostgreSQL internals.
Whether you’re exploring PostgreSQL source code, developing extensions, or contributing to the database engine, this session provides a solid foundation for understanding one of PostgreSQL’s most important internal systems.

In this episode of ChatLoopBackOff, CNCF Ambassador Henrik Rexed explores Cedar for the first time. Cedar is an open-source authorization policy language designed to decouple access control from application logic.
Core Capabilities:
* Decoupled Security: Separates authorization logic from code, enabling updates without redeployment.
* Flexible Models: Supports Role-Based (RBAC), Attribute-Based (ABAC), and Relationship-Based (ReBAC) access control models.
* Mathematical Rigor: Formally verified language specification using theorem provers to ensure precise evaluation.
High Performance: Designed for real-time evaluation with bounded latency in cloud-native workloads.
* Henrik will provide a hands-on look at how Cedar functions, offering an honest, first-time assessment of its syntax and tools.
Join us on June 25, 2026, for this live dive into Cedar!
