Oh wow, GitHub just invited me to be part of the GitHub Sponsors program!

That means you can now support my projects and open-source work directly through GitHub.

For the first year of the program GitHub will even match each of your donations. So if you always wanted to stick it to GitHub, now's the time

Support me here: https://github.com/users/muesli/sponsorship

Kinda saw that coming.

Today I got promoted to IT manager position after my proposal got approved by the management to use multiple open source solutions and replace propriety products the company is using.

Tests went well and they were happy with the services. I will be handling the migration and training for the coming months.

To thank the wonderful open source community I will be donating a part of my pay for the coming 3 months.

It's been a week since I started using this keeb, and so far this has been a really pleasant experience,. You definitely have to make some remapping on it to be usable tho.

Last month, Kazakhstan attempted to break encrypted web traffic by asking citizens to install bad root certificates on their devices. Now the authorities say it was all just a "test." We've updated our article on the matter with the latest info: https://protonmail.com/blog/kazakhstan-internet-surveillance/

We're very happy to announce that our new #CodeOfConduct is now live. We've taken a lot of time editing this, and our Patrons have also helped.

Hopefully this new CoC will better define what we're trying to achieve with #Fosstodon.

Folks it's really simple: I won't use an application that has this sort of backdoor. I won't buy a phone with this sort of backdoor.

You'll also find people like OpenWhisperSystems will simply not ever add it to Signal.

When end-to-end crypto is outlawed, I'll happily become a fugitive.

Everyone should read up on the original cypherpunks, because it looks like a new generation will be fighting the good fight.

"Nobody talks about the real reason to use Tabs over Spaces"

This is a pretty compelling reason. Esp. if you are writing open source code.

As part our commitment to open source, today we are announcing the release of GopenPGP, an open source golang encryption library. This library powers all our apps and has been audited for security by @sec_consult. https://protonmail.com/blog/openpgp-golang/

Dear Ruby devs and game devs. I have a crazy announcement I want to share. Please boost.

Last week I released A Dark Room to the Nintendo Switch. Within the game, I also shipped a Ruby interpreter and a code editor as an Easter Egg.

*This Easter Egg effectively turns every consumer spec-ed Nintendo Switch into a Ruby Machine.*

1. Download A Dark Room from the US/EU.
2. Connect a USB keyboard and press the “~” key.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions.

In today's #BlackMirrorReality news...

"Amazon, Apple and Google all employ staff who listen to customer voice recordings...

Some of the reviewers told Bloomberg that they shared amusing voice clips with one another in an internal chat room.

They also described hearing distressing clips such as a potential [trigger warning redaction - article linked below if you'd like to read it]. However, they were told by colleagues that it was not Amazon's job to intervene."
