It's the first day of the new Data Science for Transport Planning course and I'm stoked to be delivering it with such an amazing team, including my colleagues Juan Fonseca-Zamora and Yuanxuan Yang. Welcome everyone arriving at the Institute for Transport Studies in #Leeds for the course today and everyone else, watch this space for #opensource contents 🚀

@mejofi @nor4 Let's make this a little more personal. Hi Joni! It's Alex from @nlnetlabs and I'm responsible for keeping the lights on. 👋
When NLnet Labs was founded in 1999, the foundation could be run on the bag of money Verizon gave NLnet, the first Dutch ISP with country wide coverage. This money, and two talented developers gave the world NSD authoritative #DNS server, and Unbound recursive resolver; two #OpenSource and liberally licensed projects we maintain to this day.
No marketing was needed, social media didn’t exist — good old word of mouth did the job. And if it didn’t, that was fine too. Talented developers like we're blessed to have can find a job anywhere.
It was only some 15 years later when NLnet Labs almost ran out of money that the internet community realised that they should play a part in our financial sustainablility, instead of doing an `apt install unbound` and resolve happily ever after.
Letting the product speak for itself isn’t enough to keep the lights on. We barely got away with it with Routinator, but that's only because we were the first with a well rounded solution for #RPKI.
With Cascade we're placing a product in an established #DNSSEC signing market, which includes people who are dependent on OpenDNSSEC, which we're EoL-ing. We also need to remind people that “free" in Open Source isn’t just the “as in speech” part.
Without marketing, finance, HR, legal, shareholders or a corporate sugar daddy I’m responsible for the livelihood of 16 people, 6 of which are working on Cascade. I’m betting everything on this. So yes, I turned the volume up to 11, and yes I post the same content to LinkedIn, and yes perhaps I should be fine tuning the messaging to each target audience. I'll put my comms team right on it! Oh, hang on...
I hope you enjoy the things we’ve been doing for the #DNS and #BGP community for the last 25 years. My goal is to make sure we can do this for at least another 25. I promise we'll do in-depth technical blog posts too, but right now the team is trying to make sure we can demo something at @dnsoarc in three weeks.
Please bear with us and stay tuned! 💚 #LoveDNS #rustlang

Hello ! Quelqu'un·e connaitrait-iel une extension navigateur Firefox ou un outil / application pour synchroniser et écrire sur des agendas nextcloud sur un pc (quelque soit l'OS) en dehors de Htunderbird ? J'ai un peu cherché mais j'ai pas trouvé. Je précise, je cherche de l'open source et pas GAFAM.
Merci pour votre #aide ! 😘

Ich hab das Gefühl, der Umstieg ist Konsens, nur die Umgewöhnung führt zu Mimimi.

Reason 6 To Choose Linux 😍
Gaming … yes, gaming!
Can I play games on 🐧 #Linux? Yes you can, and it has never been easier!
Using a #SteamDeck? You are #gaming on Linux already 🚀
#LinuxGaming has entered a whole new era over the past decade. Thousands of popular AAA games run seamlessly on Linux and, in many cases, performance is equal to or even better than on #Windows, especially on older hardware.

All certs give the same encryption — the real differences are in identity checks, automation, support, and compliance.
DV with Let’s Encrypt is perfect for most. OV/EV only matter if policy, contracts, or enterprise governance demand it.
