Oh hell yes

A solid choice. I’ve been using it daily ( codeberg.org ) for the last year and it’s pretty great!

The code review features are not as awesome as github but you won’t need those.

No, not really. Autism is pretty distinctive, there’s far more signs to spot than being quiet and awkward.

I don’t think trac has any kind of kanban UI to it, btw. They might have added it by now, it’s been years since I used it.

It depends what you were using Jira for - it has a lot of features, most of which you were probably not using.

Trac has a wiki, tickets and git all in one - https://trac.edgewall.org

NextCloud has a plugin called ‘Tasks’ which looks similar to Trello.

Forgejo is similar to github - https://forgejo.org/

Some gentle pressure applied here might change that https://codeberg.org/swiso/website/issues/255

Yeah, I think it’s that one. Does Discover pull it’s content from flathub.org?

It says “by Signal Foundation” on it and 900,000 people have installed it so it seems good enough to me.

I have the official Signal Desktop flatpak installed through Discover. It exists.

The headline had me hoping for things like “Xinjiang - how we incarcerated 1 million people for only $5k pp / year” or “Integrating vassel states - lessons from Hong Kong” or “The Tibet Journey” or “Propaganda for fun and profit Steve Bannon edition”.

Nope 😴

Yeah, I read the whole thing. It was a good story but I felt that when it came time to “deliver the goods” they fell a bit short. For example, this: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/final-image-global-south.png. That is under the heading “Clearly authoritarian”, which seems pretty strong for such a boring sounding course.

I stand by my earlier comment.

I wish they were able to find better examples of the courses and the content (not just the summary from marketing materials). The examples they provided were really tame.

in China, law enforcement is designed to protect the state and the Party rather than the people, journalism is prescribed to create national unity rather than act as a check against the system, and the law is intended to protect the regime rather than its citizenry.

Very succinctly put!

In the Constitution of China you’ll find a section where it explicitly states that the interests of the group outweigh those of the individual. It’s baked into the legal bedrock.

I know an old person in a tropical country. A few months ago she started having blood pressure issues so her doctor put her on about 3 or 4 different medications. They didn’t help very much.

Then about a month ago she got air-conditioning in one of the rooms of her house. Boom, blood pressure problems all solved immediately.

Really great comments at https://peerj.com/articles/cs-111/reviews/. The reviewers are very nice about it but do point out some big issues towards the end.

Thanks for grabbing the chart.

My Stats 101 alarm bells go off whenever I see a graph that does not start with 0 on the Y axis. It makes the differences look bigger than they are.

The ‘outsiders, gendered’ which is the headline stat, shows a 1% difference between women and men. When their gender is unknown there is a 3% difference in the other direction (I’m just eyeballing the graph here as they did not provide their underlying data, lol wtf ). So, overall, the sexism effect seems to be about 4%.

That’s a bit crap but does not blow my hair back. I was expecting more, considering what we know about gender pay gaps, etc.

The faircode model assumes that contributions from random outside people are minor and that the bulk of the work is done by the founder(s). To the founders there is little actual benefit from being an open source project, anyway. I can understand the attraction of the model in that situation.

My ideal OSS project would be receiving a steady stream of contributions from a wide variety of people without an elite sub group that considers themselves to be “the authors”, which would be obviously unsuited to the faircode model. Sadly few projects achieve that and are largely the work of one person.

IMO it depends on the situation/project.

In the comments on the article people have debugged their cloudflare/caching configuration for them and told them what they’re doing wrong.
