Still, one of the + main reasons users with no technical background don't use + many free software projects in their daily routine is that + some projects don't offer good usability, which drives + them into choosing proprietary solutions. This talk is a + more mature follow-up to my talk "How to make more users + love free software," where I'll give realistic ideas and + applicable and simple solutions to improve free software + projects' usability.\n\nThis session is a continuation on + Clarissa's presentation from LibrePlanet 2020. +URL=https://libreplanet.org/2021/speakers/#4889 +LOCATION:Saturn +DTSTART:20210321T203500Z +DTEND:20210321T212000Z +CATEGORIES:Community +ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;CUTYPE=INVIDIDUAL;CN="Clarissa Borges":i + nvalid:nomail +END:VEVENT +BEGIN:VEVENT +METHOD:PUBLISH +DTSTAMP:20210316T000000Z +UID:LQHVLFQSQ4W2S44JTG6W24MKBKUEK3HI +CLASS:PUBLIC +STATUS:CONFIRMED +SUMMARY:Beyond "learning to code": How Tech Learning Collective merges I + T training with emancipatory political action +DTSTART:20210321T203500Z +DTEND:20210321T212000Z +DESCRIPTION:What good is a pen if the paper it touches can + refuse to show its ink? What good is your app when your + API key is revoked? Through metaphor and with a unique + apprenticeship-based pedagogy, Tech Learning Collective + (TLC) is empowering users by doing exactly what code boot + camps and corporate-funded "learn to code" programs don't: + TLC tells students to ignore new Web frameworks and focus + instead on the lowest layers of an IT stack like physical + network and hardware storage devices. At TLC, + infrastructure is the heart of a free software curriculum + eschewing common rush-to-employment training paradigms in + favor of Socratic classrooms where practicing Bash + commands seamlessly meld with lectures about Gnostic + influences on Ethernet, the relationship between Gregorian + chants and bootloaders, and more. Come see why and how + TLC's holistic approach to IT education is creating + communities of activist sysadmins out of people who + wouldn't otherwise have called themselves "techies." +URL=https://libreplanet.org/2021/speakers/#4763 +LOCATION:Neptune +CATEGORIES:Education +ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;CUTYPE=INVIDIDUAL;CN="Tech Learning Coll + ective":invalid:nomail +END:VEVENT +BEGIN:VEVENT +METHOD:PUBLISH +DTSTAMP:20210316T000000Z +UID:CBVCSHRNGGBPTXO3Z6WWF6GXFD5SEDIO +CLASS:PUBLIC +STATUS:CONFIRMED +SUMMARY:Ten years of empowering activists AND everyday people through f + ree mobile software +DESCRIPTION:From bringing OTR, Tor, GnuGP, FFMPEG and + SQLCipher to Android, to developing and supporting apps + like Orbot, Tor Browser for Android, Onion Browser, + F-Droid, ChatSecure, Haven and more, we at Guardian + Project have been pretty busy for the last decade.
