1. What is the Fediverse? - Diogo Cordeiro
  
  from Diogo Cordeiro
  
  Many newcomers to the free network may hear of a casual reference to the fediverse, and may be curious about what that term means.

  I am an undergraduate student from Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto in Computer Science since 2017 and so I thought I would write a post about this college.

Are there any good ethical alternatives to Google Scholar?
I need to find literature on surveillance capitalism for my local socialist study circle, and it just feels wrong to have to use a Google product for this.

I've just stumbled on DarkStar, a Xerox Star emulator.
The GUIs we use today are a direct evolution of the work done on Xerox PARC in the 70's, resulting in the Alto and other Xerox computers that pioneered GUI on consumer products until Steve Jobs dropped by the lab for a visit.
The Star (1981) was more polished than the Alto and is definitely worth checking out!

@diogo I understand your reasons, even I did last summer. But you ask for my opinion, ;) so mine it's that "at the tanks never came our people". :)

Also agree that GS needs more developers, but maybe first we need it's to unblock it. More than a year or two without maintenance nor development and seems it will not change.
At the other side, more or less a year ago we were waiting for past GSoC hopping time to AP federation, but mostly time to start develop and maintenance again. One year later we are again waiting for GSoC. :)

I probably miss something and I don't know the reasons, but the fact it seems this project wants to be abandoned at first by GNU/FSF.

In the meantime, thanks again for your efforts! Please, keep helping GS in the way you consider.

Yeah, GNU/FSF have never put any resources in to GNU social apart from maintaining the general !fs politics worldwide.
Originally Evan had startup grants, I just put in my free time (which I barely have any left nowadays) and @diogo got the gsoc stuff.

While I enjoy the !ostatus solution much more than ActivityPub maybr we should see what has been generated "outside" of !gnusocial .) Think of how many people have managed to find their way out on the !fediverse even if it's maybe not via GS specifically. But it's all AGPL .)

I like the recent trend of saying "roles" or "positions" instead of "jobs". I think it's much more honest: jobs assume that you are doing work.

Yours concerns about big corporations are understandable and I share them (although I won't deny using their services sometimes, I guess I'm a fixer-upper). But sometimes those organizations do good things too and GSoC is an example of that.

My activity past summer in GNU social was sponsored by GSoC, and receiving some income for the time I've dedicated was helpful. I have friends that have to work on the summer in order to help their families. Programs like GSoC allow them to contribute to the FLOSS community while receiving some important money for doing something they enjoy.

GS in GSoC was something I have asked MMN-o for past year but it was ultimately possible thanks to GNU acting as an umbrella organization for its packages. I think GNU understands that GSoC is not something harmful as it brings students to the Open Source world.

I feel that GNU social needs more developers and I believe GSoC can help with that. Finally, even if those developers may help only for the money in the beginning (it wasn't my case but it is legit for the above mentioned reasons), they will eventually fall in love by GS like us and will be helping whenever possible even without the GSoC income. ;)

1. Why Any Backdoor Would Be a Threat to Online Security.
  
  from Tutanota
  
  In regular intervals, Politicians demand that companies add backdoors to their end-to-end encrypted cloud services to enable law enforcements to easier persecute criminals. This demand ignores that any backdoor to encryption poses a severe threat to online security in general. This post explains why a backdoor is - and will always be - a stupid idea.

Hey @mmn !
As I've said in IRC (It seems you aren't there :/ ), I'm looking forward to be a mentor this summer in GS's SoC (as I won't have the required time to participate as a student). Therefore I believe we can host a max of 3 students (me, dansup and you)! ^^

Let me know what you think of the ideas page: https://www.diogo.site/projects/gsoc2019/
