Lecture du jour !

Merci aux membres de @Framasoft ayant pris le temps, le soin de faire la traduction de la conférence de @pluralistic ! 🙏

C'est passionnant en plus d'être très très politique, au sens noble du terme !

Once again putting it out into the world that someday I would desperately like to work on a research vessel at sea. I'll take holiday time and do it as volunteer hours if a short-term opportunity presents itself.

• I can write excellent code in Python without an internet connection
• I can do basic electronics and soldering
• I have college-level chem and biochem and PhD-level structural biology
• many years ago I was on a sailing team, so I can tie knots and hike and stuff if relevant
• also fine with manual labor and repetitive tasks. I just want to be on the water.

If there's a longer-term thing worth pursuing that I'd need specific qualifications for, I'd be interested to know about it so I can slowly accumulate said qualifications. (I'm not leaving my job-job in the next three or four years, but eventually I will be looking for a career-shaped thing again once this ends.)

Edit to clarify: for the foreseeable future, only willing to work with US-based institutions if I don't have to enter the US at any point.

"Every procurement decision that embeds foreign dependency, every compromise of sovereignty in the name of convenience, accumulates into strategic vulnerability."

Lord Tim Clement Jones supports our #DigitalSovereignty report to reduce dependency on proprietary vendors and restore public sector control.

With greater investment in #OpenSource, we can balance innovation with resilience, economic opportunity with democratic accountability.

La solution gratuite et Open Source #Rustdesk bloque maintenant l'utilisation de son serveur public en raison d'attaques informatiques répétées sur ce dernier. Il faudra connecter l'app (qui contrôle) et le client avec un même compte Google, GitHub ou Microsoft. J'ai testé, ça fonctionne. Mais pour dépanner par exemple un membre de la famille, c'est assez contraignant...
