Open source pharma: How to stop the rot in drug discovery | DW | 12.10.2018
There's something rotten in the state of pharma — greed, secrecy, inefficiency — it's all there. And there's no easy fix. But moves toward a more caring, sharing industry through "open source pharma" may be a start.

Disroot / Nomad Apps
Disroot Community skrev følgende innlegg Sat, 29 Sep 2018 11:15:49 +0200DisrootApp & Nomad on Fdroid
Disroot.org is a platform providing multiple services for many different use cases. Most of the services offered on the platform already provide their own mobile app but that is ungraspable to the many people who were constantly inquiring about a "Disroot app". Time and time again we've been explaining people that they can use any email app supporting IMAP/POP3 or that they can just grab nextcloud app to sync files or use any Jabber client for their chat. But now, thanks to a very clever Disrooter, we actualy have a Disroot app, something we, the admins, couldn't even imagine! the Disapp works as a swiss army knife for Disroot. It helps users install appropriate apps for each service, as well as open Disroot related URL's within the app window for those services that don't have a dedicated application. Its a very neat aproach that solves a lot of problems for new comers as well as veteran users. We are very excited and very thankful for @Massimiliano as well as all the people in the community that have helped making it happen.
Nomad.
As some of you know for last months we are experimenting with an amazing social network called Hubzilla. Together with other disrooters we are working on the documentation, theme, plugins and few other things that will make our instance a complete package easy to onboard and use. Yet again, with pure caffeine running through his veins, the sleepless Disrooter decided to take on the task of creating dedicated app for hubzilla called Nomad. Nomad, created by @Massimiliano , is a fork of #{massimiliano@hub.disroot.org} (mobile app for diaspora) which serves a webview version of hubzilla with extra features such as native menus, share with, and other neat things you expect from the mobile app. It's still in early stages of development and needs a lot fo work but its very much awesome already and makes hubzilla usage on mobile a breeze.
We are very excited about those two new apps and would like to thank all the people that were involved in the process of creating them, testing and translating.
you can find both apps on fdroid if you don't use that app store yet, its about time to start:

Just a heads up. The time is slipping away and I would like to bring Zot6 to Hubzilla before the end of the year, but I'm now questioning if that's a realistic timeframe. There's much work to do and the conflicts between Zot6 and the way Hubzilla currently works are staggering to say the least. But here are a few things that may happen "soonish" and which *may* affect you...
1. The PHP minimum version is going to brought up to 7.0. Version 5.6 will be end of life on December 31st so this shouldn't surprise anybody, but I'm suggesting that this requirement is imminent. Please upgrade _now_ if you're running 5.6. Things will start to break if you don't. The longer you wait the more things will break.
2. Redmatrix backward compatibility will be terminated. I think everybody who wanted to migrate has done so, but in any event I'm pulling the plug on the compatibility code.
3. The way reshares work is going to be radically different. I'm hoping current reshared posts will still render, but if somebody comments or likes these in the future, those conversations may not federate. In ActivityStreams (on which Zot6 is based) and many other federated networks and projects, you can't actually add commentary on reshared content before posting. This is unfortunate because it puts everybody in the network at risk of copyright infringement and without a "fair-use" defense. I highly recommend everybody get in the habit of adding a comment to anything you reshare, even if it involves an extra step. The ass you save could be your own.

Bass moves us
Why does music make us dance?
This is truly impressive indeed. Just saw it again at our youngest kid the last months, she could not crawl, but as soon as there were some rhythmic beats she started moving her whole body to the beats.

Did you know that the bass makes us move?
Scientists in Australia have looked into this question and discovered that the answer lies in the bass. The researchers studied how our brains process low-frequency sounds, which usually form the rhythmic basis of music. They played high- and low-frequency sounds to people and watched their brains' reaction using electroencephalography (EEG).

I don't think that it is correlated and maybe it's just an irrational feeling but to me it seems like once #mastodon became so popular, the bot/spam activity in the whole #federated network increased noticeable. I wonder how we can fight this issue with FFF (tm) (full federated force]? \m/
But still: #federation rocks (though #p2p next logical step :)

I think it's inevitable that a larger user base will make any system or protocol more attractive to spammers. And I hope we as a community will find ways to deal with it as needed.
As for federation vs p2p, I think a healthy mix will always be the best solution. See for example how PeerTube is combining the two for a really powerful mix imo.
