Please boost this post if you would like the EFF to join the fediverse.

In a survey the EFF sent me, I suggested they create an account on the fediverse, so they can reach more supporters and support innovative free software that promotes interoperability among platforms, something they've advocated for in the past, too.

If you can boost this post, maybe I'll be able to show them that there are quite a few users who would like them here!

The EFF is the infamous nonprofit organisation that fights for privacy, government transparency, and digital freedom. Their fight is very important, and the EFF is very special to me. https://www.eff.org/about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation

You can see some of their work here https://www.eff.org/work

In the meantime, you can follow @eff, which is an unofficial mirror of their Twitter.

@rstats A course attendee asked me if I could recommend a list of concepts and terms used when learning #RStats. I searched and searched and couldn't find anything suitable, because most resources focus on describing how to use the tools, rather than explaining what words mean.

So I put together this list: https://gitlab.com/stragu/DSH/-/blob/master/R/terminology.md

What do you think? I want to keep it nice and short, but is anything missing, or should be worded differently?

#Google setzt EU-Auflagen zur Wahlfreiheit bei Browser und Suchmaschine auf #Android-Mobilgeräten so um, dass alternative Suchmaschinen 1. dafür zahlen müssen, um in der Auswahl zu sein, und 2. jedes Mal zahlen müssen, wenn Nutzer.innen sie wählen.

Das ist mehr als dreist. /c

Telemedizin via WhatsApp in Afrika, Malawi - finanziert von der EU. Festhalten: "Real-time WhatsApp advice aids surgery in rural Malawi"

Telemedizin via WhatsApp. Kann man sich nicht ausdenken sowas. Zitat: "They considered developing an app to connect health professionals and enable them to share images and videos, but they realised that WhatsApp was a solution right under their nose."

Klar, und dann nimmt man WhatsApp. Ist auch besonders datenschutzfreundlich...

Why is software created using taxpayers’ money not released as Free Software?

* Tax savings: Similar applications don't have to be programmed from scratch every time.

* Collaboration: Major projects can share expertise and costs.

* Serving the public: Applications paid by the public should be available for everyone.

* Fostering innovation: With transparent processes, others don't have to reinvent the wheel.
