Yeah, it was actually a lot of fun. I worked in a port-related area and often we would just cruise around the port and look at the ships. If it looked cool we would yell loudly and ask if we could come aboard. The seamen were usually thrilled to show us around their massive ships and would often invite us to a barbecue. With the introduction of the ISPS all of that was over in an instant.

Just use oauth2-proxy with keycloak to put SSO in front of any self-hosted app.

I remember Mohammed Said (of Laravel fame) telling this story to Matt Stauffer in the Laravel Podcast. He wrote is programs at home on pen and paper and went to the public library to try them out.

No idea where you get your news on Germany, but the only valid thing was the part about the auto industry being legacy. As someone working in the energy sector, I can gladly tell you we got rid off most dependencies, we’re 95% independent regarding electricity. Oil and coal are still a problem, but we’re getting there. That ballooning welfare deficit you talk about must be a joke, what are you even saying? Germany has a zero deficit policy in it’s constitution (which what’s actually causing trouble right now, especially regarding Ukraine help funding). Please also point me to information on unions fighting EV because I haven’t heard anything about this (being active in the largest German union).

Price is not everything. My company has Gitlab licenses as a part of a larger Microsoft enterprise agreement/partnership but we still pay for GitLab Ultimate and use that as a default for all developers.

.io is the country domain of the British Indian Ocean territories which will soon seize to exist.

Same as Laravel, IMHO.

As a Linux (and Mac) user, I had the same feelings for a long time, until I joined a large corporation that heavily relies on Microsoft stuff.

So just speaking as a user: Outlook is the crappiest email client on the planet, but it’s the best calendar I have seen so far. I haven’t been able to replicate with OSS, what I experience now in this corporate environment. Everything just works and is well integrated. I can easily see availabilities of co-workers before inviting them to meetings. I can easily share certain aspects of my own calendar with some or all co-workers (only availability, titles, full event content). I can hand my calendar over to be managed by someone else and it will be clear that I did so (A invited you on behalf of B).

All these things just work.

I applaud the work to start a good OSS calendar implementation, but what I‘m actually missing is a corresponding OSS server side that does all these things I‘ve seen in the enterprise.

Those industrial titanium powder printers are not comparable at all what you know, I assume. They‘re used at scale to produce airplane parts. Usually also utilising bionic structures, e.g. to make brackets that are much lighter and sturdier, than their conventional counterparts.

Someone from the commission actually got into contact with me today after I filled out the OWA questionnaire.

The only alternative is not a feasible replacement, especially not in a corporate setting.

Very welcome addition by Mozilla. Thanks!

Working for one of the largest energy grid providers in Europe, I can tell you: This is the future we‘re currently building. We already have many areas with a huge energy surplus completely generated by renewables.

There is no one here that doubts the renewable future and we‘re quite sure we can finish building the necessary grid until the end of the decade (with around 6 times the capacity of the current European grid).

That’s funny. I’ve recently been involved with several projects steered by high-end consulting firms. They were all complete shit shows, most of all the SAP projects.

The problem IMO is, that on the corporate side, you often don’t have any IT knowledge at all. So they hire consultants to ask them what to do and don’t have any way of confirming if what they are being told is sane advice.

I’m also really shocked by what the likes of McKinsey of Accenture get away with regarding the quality of people they send.

Edit: I guess I misunderstood “high-end” and thought of “large” consulting firms, because those are the ones that pretty much always suck. I’ve had wonderful experiences with small consultancies.

Or maybe just cool down a little and give them the chance to clarify things? From reading the discord, this really doesn’t sound like a hostile takeover but well intentions with bad wording.
