Where is volunteering?

You might see it on physical surfaces. In terms of tech, let's call them tangible outputs. We see them on whiteboards, blackboards, under trees, in gardens, crops, roadsides, seasides, highways, and so much more. But did you see the impact on abstraction? Did you see how humans turned the simple modern aircraft into the SpaceX Starlink constellation? Did you see how languages like Rust have immediately changed the era of computing to 'Artificial Intelligence?' Did you see how fast tasks with machine value, data transfers with trillions of operations can now happen without distraction? Yeah, you might think it's because there were people who invented it or were smart enough to invent them. But in fact, none of the above-mentioned things were developed without open source. Power of open source.

Today, for a valuable example, let's take Mark Zuckerberg, who has nearly open-sourced more than 15 major technologies which do not only help to fasten the user experience, efficiency, and the big topic which is trending nowadays, AI. But they also helped thousands of humans, especially learners and students, to browse and learn a significantly large amount of core and, at the same time, making a significantly big advantage for the entire humankind. Open-source development is not just a thing as an investment but rather, it's a kind of benefit that helps to change the address before you move further.

And I would like to address something very important: the impact of open-source contributions on newcomers. When you're new to a class, a grade, or even to a book, where do you look first? The syllabi, class contents, index, or the first page? That's the moment where they might say "Wow." So, that moment is called the first impression. In any subject, any grade, any task, no matter how hard or how deep the things are, humans are biologically made to learn every second of their lives. So the point is, how powerful are open-source developers have made a lasting foundation and such a good impression to our newcomers, as you can see the uninterpeted, relative bond between the growth of the world and the growth of technology. Unexpectedly great.

Thanks.
