TL;DR; foss-north IoT and Security Day has been cancelled, or at least indefinitely postponed, due to health reasons. For the past three weeks (from August 11, to be exact) I have had a fever that I couldn’t really shake. At the same time my wife had pneumonia for which she was successfully treated. Antibiotics is […]

Federated conference videos

So, foss-north 2019 happened. 260 visitors. 33 speakers. Four days of madness. During my opening of the second day I mentioned some social media statistics. Only 7 of our speakers had mastodon accounts, but 30 had twitter accounts.

The idea with the community day here is that we arrange for conference rooms all across town and invite open source projects […]
