Dave Taht is one of the Internet's unsung (but singing) heroes, and is doing more than anyone today to rescue your Internet connection from something you haven't heard of, but should: bufferbloat. On FLOSS Weekly, Doc Searls and Jonathan Bennett spend an information-packed hour with Dave, digging deep into bloated network buffers, bureaucracies, corporate failings, and slow but real progress against all of those, much of it with Dave's leadership.

Hosts: Doc Searls and Jonathan Bennett

Director of Technical Programs at RISC-V's, Stephano Cetola joins FLOSS Weekly. The RISC-V International was first to the table with an open-source ISA—Instruction Set Architecture—and every developer with a stake in the future is at that table, as participating members of RISC-V. And these are just two among the many interesting facts Doc Searls and Jonathan Bennett learned on this week's show from Cetola.

Doc, Shawn and Aaron co-host each other in a lively and deep conversation about higher education, open-source techies making themselves valuable, and a world in which there seems to be no limit to what can be done with surveillance—including what law enforcement does, for example, to tempt and trap bad actors with, a supposedly anonymous and secure messaging app (ANOM) that is neither.
