problems & approaches in product management + #UX #design in #opensource, and people already working on it

Amazon owned DPReview.com to close: Digital Photography Review
dpreview.com/news/5901145460/d…
It is with great sadness that after nearly 25 years of operation, we must announce that DPReview will close in the near future. This difficult decision is part of the annual operating plan review that our parent company shared earlier this year.Scott Everett (DPReview)
@rpavlik I think they are just cutting stuff from the balance sheet. They own IMDB and Goodreads as well.
I do remember when Amazon bought them. But it stayed a valuable resource. I also remember when they poached Chris and Jordan.
The A2plus assembly workbench for @FreeCAD was built on the foundation of Assembly 2. More features and helper tools, better workflow, active development, but also a few caveats. This is the third post in the series:

Hoy les voy a presumir cómo quedó la última iteración de mis #huaraches. Estos son la cuarta revisión desde que comencé con este proceso #autodidacta experimental con #piel. También es posible que solo sea una ramificación y que haga otra revisión basada en la anterior y no en esta.
El objetivo aquí fue conseguir un huarache sin formas de ajuste (correas rígidas) y con soporte trasero para evitar que sean chanclas y que permitan mayor fluidez al caminar.

Hey @protonmail, we know you guys use affiliate marketing and that it can be hard to keep an eye on what each of the partners is doing, but are you aware of this article: cybernews.com/secure-email-pro… ?
1/5 🧵
I agree. That is why i use Tutanota only. No affiates, no bull$hit, no sky high prices.
I've used Protonmail for couple of years, before the new pricing. And i can say that it doesnt deserve all the glory it receives.
For me, the best thing i use Tutanota for is ability to add or remove my paid features. And to customise my plan how i need it to be. With Protonmail you get everything you might need or nothing.
Tuta, youre the best!

"The tremendous tragic silence of which Peru has been the theater for four hundred years is the denial of a cardinal truth: this is a nation of Indians." - Luis E. Valcárcel
An Incanist who desired the return of Indigenous rule over Peru, he wrote the classic "Tempestad en los andes" (1927). Political and prophetic, Valcárcel's work is an original text for the DecοΙоnizatiοn of Peru. 🇵🇪
