That means no push notifications and no offline cache.

Nowadays, consumer tech has become so advanced that it seems to be trickling upward to the military.

What is open source? Open source products use code that is made public and can be used, modified and shared by others. We’re not locked in to the proprietary systems of a small number of US tech firms, so we don’t have to start from scratch if we change vendor.

Why this is needed – Making Digital Sovereignty a central strategic goal of UK digital policy will drive competition and innovation with effective regulation to create a more level playing field for UK businesses.

I also created a separate function to handle the Markdown validation logic, and call it before prompting for the description, to give immediate feedback, and rewrote the error messages to be clearer, more organized.

Lately, I've noticed it's sometimes hard for me to release things as open source. Almost everything I do is meant for the common good, but every now and then I get hit with a wave of anxiety. It goes back to at least three times in the past when I shared something with good intentions and ended up facing a public hate campaign for it. When you've been burned a few times, it's only natural to hesitate before putting your hand back in the fire.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        I start to question things - is privacy handled properly, is my vision right, what if people reject it, what will they think about AI being involved... The more doubts I have, the less I feel like publishing my private repo. It's ironic because I've even given lectures on open source, yet I completely understand why some people fear it. It's not always fun. In fact, it can feel like putting yourself on display for judgment.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        I'm learning to take it easier, reminding myself that I don't have to release everything. I don't need to explain myself all the time. I'm allowed to keep a few gems just for myself.
