Meeting the whale brothers of Datawhale in person in Hangzhou was an experience I'll never forget. Meeting actual users/day-1 whale bros, receiving exceptionally detailed questions, and discovering so many of the attendees were teachers - it still makes me a bit sad that my busy schedule cut this portion short. I wanted to take a picture with each individual and hear their story. It gives me so much hope for a future where open source goes beyond technology: a philosophy of sharing applied knowledge freely. The diversity of perspectives, time zones, languages - they become an asset to not only those involved but also all of society. This, to me, is the power and beauty of open source. An elegant, inherently artistic, learning-centric movement - one beyond the constraints of "a person having ordinary skill in the art."
