#Speeduino is an excellent open source ECU project. I run my car with it. I was wondering why I wasn't logging a certain value (MAPDot) so I got the code, reverted to the tag for the build I run (I really must update it) and within minutes saw that that value is only calculated if another parameter is set.
The code is lovely to read, and under active development. Sooo much nicer than the Megasquirt code. All hail #opensource !

A Great Open Source Race: China vs India vs the African Continent
The global landscape of open source software development is shifting, with China and India emerging as dominant forces. China now leads the world with 2.2 million active open source developers, while India has over 2 million contributors. This places both countries ahead of Europe, which has 1.9 million developers, and the U.S. with 1.7 million. GitHub projects that India will surpass the U.S. as the largest developer community on its platform by 2027.
Africa's Role and Challenges
While the number of open source developers in Africa is smaller, the continent is experiencing the fastest growth rates globally. Nigeria leads with a 45% year-over-year growth, followed by Ghana and Kenya at 41% each. This rapid expansion is a "leapfrog infrastructure" that uses open source solutions to bypass legacy systems. However, the article highlights a key challenge: the quality of open source contributions. Despite India's high number of contributors, the quality of its open source software is described as not yet comparable to that from the U.S., Japan, or Hong Kong. This is a potential challenge for Africa as well

What do you call an OTel collector written in #Rust? Rotel!
And it shows some impressive performance gains over the Go-written collector.
