Three conclusions to draw from #Google denying #Huawei access to software: (1) The #FSFE urges users to use Free Software operating systems and applications on their computing devices. (2) Governments and especially the European Union should invest more resources in #FreeSoftware to gain independence from large enterprises and other states. (3) The FSFE urges companies to use as much Free Software as possible in their supply chains. https://fsfe.org/news/2019/news-20190520-01.en.html #pmpc

Crunch is not something that happens only in videogame-studio culture, it happens through most software development business and I know that firsthand. It's good to see more people trying to give visibility to this issue

Agile may be great in theory, but it has become the new excuse to justify crunch: "you have demonstrate your agility coding some new changes once the sprint has started" (which translates to "build a whole new feature 2 days before the deadline, while not changing the deadline") #softwareDeveloperLife

Just heard that China has now blocked all access to all editions of Wikipedia. Apparently Turkey has done this too.
Fortunately, there's an app called #Kiwix which lets people download, browse and search the whole of Wikipedia (and many other wikimedia sites) entirely offline on their computer or phone.
You can follow them here:
Their official website is here:

the ancient romans are best known for the invention of the forum, a place where citizens could go to discuss and argue about topics of interest. modern scholars hotly debate whether the original forum was phpbb or vbulletin
