I’m at the historic @WarnerTheater in DC to bear witness what @PowerUSAID invited all Americans to learn about this morning:
How Ukraine is delivering services online in a democracy at war with @USAID.
@karaswisher live now:

19M Ukrainians using DIAA now

As @karaswisher said, there has a been backpack against disruptive technologies like the Internet, smartphones, & social media.
We now worry about AI.
But all governments must harness these technologies to provide critical info & deliver services to networked publics, everywhere.

Today, @PowerUSAID says delivering services showed how “robust & secure digital public infrastructure” enabled Ukrainians to access services in a war while minimizing corruption.
She says @USAID supported in e-gov in Ukraine since 2016. “
The result: “Government in a smartphone.”

We've spent the last 18 months on a particularly vexing question - is there an opportunity to build semiconductor design giants again? @Sid_1_0 @TrivediVedant and i penned our thoughts on behalf of @SequoiaIndiaSEA here :

Knowing where vulnerabilities exist is only helpful when you can actually treat them. Unfortunately, a vast majority can only be corrected within an organization’s custom code.
Some organizations write custom patches, but contend with open source software package updates that break those custom patches, so there are significant forward compatibility challenges.
There’s no point in playing security whack-a-mole.

What dev, security & infrastructure teams need to know to improve test cycles:
👉 What software components are running in a workload
👉 What components actually gets used
👉 What components can be eliminated
👉 What vulnerabilities exist after unused components are eliminated

I am blessed to live in a "time of noobs" ❤
I am an impostor and a noob.
There is so much I do not know.
Why am I blessed? Because I can openly share my path of learning all that stuff.
This way I can show that it is normal to struggle while learning.

For starting... #JavaScript was not designed to be the language that it is today!
JS was created in 1995 by @BrendanEich for Netscape, a web browser that was trying to come up with a language to make the web more interactive

@BrendanEich #JS wasn't related w/ #Java, so why did they call it Java-Script?! Duh! 😳
Java was trendy! it was possible to build interactive sites by embedding Java apps in pages (applets). So it was mostly a #mktg move: "JS: the lightweight Java alternative" or something like that I guess

Ich finde das gekuschelt zwischen Verbänden, die Wirtschaftsinteressen vertreten und zivilgesellschaftlichen Verbänden ziemlich befremdlich.
Und auch die Unterstützung der weiteren Kompetenzexternalisierung der Verwaltung, wie sie bei #Zendis passiert, finde ich schwierig.

現在、いわゆる「フリーな」インターネットが10の企業によって要約されており、その企業に合わせた方法にユーザーは左右される傾向があります。独立性を主張したとしても、クリエイターは定石通りに動く属国に似ています。
プラットフォームを所有する企業の中では、クリエイターに力は一切なく、彼らは企業が愛するサービス条件へのURLによる直接リンク以外で説明を受けること無しに、ちょっとした警告でチャンネルが封鎖されることがあるからです。
My team at @mitDCI and Boston Fed just released their technical white paper and open source code base on central bank digital currency (CBDC) design. While we still don't know if a #CBDC is the right answer, there are multiple reasons I am excited about this first🧵
We open sourced our entire code! I deeply believe that open sourcing allows for neutral, responsible research to take place while bringing transparency & diverse, global perspectives to this effort. This is also one of the first times the Fed has open sourced code! #OSS
We built two architectures for a centralized transaction processor. The first architecture (the #atomizer) processes transactions through an ordering server and can handle 170,000 tx/sec
[THREAD] Ho appena avuto una conversazione di 10' con una #novax dopo averla bloccata mentre stava intimidendo una passante (che incontra tutti i giorni in chiesa) cercando di convincerla a non avvelenare i suoi figli con il vaccino. [1/N]
Arriva questa #novax con in mano una copia della bibbia e la borsa piena di ceri. Si stava recando in chiesa. Esce una ragazza che evidentemente incrocia tutte le mattine, la quale le dice che è preoccupata per il nuovo #supergreenpass e che a breve dovrà vaccinare i suoi figli.
Quest'ultima è una ragazza piuttosto giovane. Mi intrometto quando la #novax dice che il vaccino contiene grafene e di aver visto una moneta rimanere attaccata al braccio di una vaccinata. Le chiedo le chiedo le sue credenziali scientifiche e mi dice [...[

Ça fait près de 10 ans que je participe à du recrutement tech, en tant qu'équipier, puis tech lead, manager et aujourd'hui CTO.
Dans le même temps, j'ai aussi été amené à être moi-même évalué techniquement lors de changements de boîtes, comme dev ou lead.

I think a lot of the challenges around #oss in the #dotnet community exist because both MS and OSS have enabled businesses, and to an extent individual developers, to avoid considering the full costs of their supply chain. It came from a good place, but needs fixing. 1/
The software packages and libraries you depend on are part of a supply chain for whatever you're delivering.
As in, they're something you didn't have to build yourself, and without them, you'd have to write a bunch of code that would have its own costs. 2/

You typically either build software, or buy software. But OSS has introduced an additional category: "software you can use and thankfully don't have to buy."
The problem occurs when we remove the "thankfully" and it becomes an expectation of an entire ecosystem. 3/

1/ Many companies are commercializing #opensource, but what metrics really matter? TL;DR - it’s not GitHub Stars ⭐️
We looked at all 134 #oss companies founded since 2015 across their @github metrics to assess which are the most telling, from seed to growth (other channels next)

2/ To understand adoption, Issues❗️growth is the most important, signaling much deeper engagement than Stars ⭐️. Growth stage companies have 5x as many Issues❗️as seed stage companies.
3/ @jasoncwarner offered a fun analogy for understanding this: there are two inputs to a computer—a keyboard ⌨️ and a mouse 🖱️. He values the keyboard ⌨️ (submitting an Issue) much more than the mouse🖱️ (clicking to Star).

For that you need an idea. If you got one then go ahead! But if not then simply visit Github and look for some open source projects on the tech/language/framework you just learnt.

1. You bake the core concepts into your brain by actually implementing them. (2/4)

- Automating release notes, stale issues/PRs
- Good practices for contribution guides, docs, etc

The Office of Strategic Services (OSS) was a wartime intelligence agency of the United States during World War II, and a predecessor to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

The OSS was formed as an agency of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS)[3] to coordinate espionage activities behind enemy lines for all branches of the US Armed Forces.
Other OSS functions included the use of propaganda, subversion, & post-war planning.
