SummerOfCode2021 VS Lobsters

https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ - sign up as an org, you have until the 21st.

I'm interested in Google summer of code event but missed it last year. I want to attend the event this year and notice that Haskell.org was one of the organizations. It sounds really exciting, I hope Haskell.org will participate in GSoC this year as well. But I have little experience with Haskell, I'm worried about how to write an expressive proposal when I don't even know which projects they will focus on. Can anyone give me so resources or suggestions about the following question?

I also encourage you to look into Google Summer of Code (GSoC).

OSS have benefited from Google Summer of Code, Google has released many fundamental libraries as OSS such as Guava for Java, Abseil for C++, etc. Many have criticized that Google never made money of a lot of its innovations, and instead had others build their own based on Google's shared information (Hadoop, and later all nosql databases, for a quick example; Docker came to be from open source innovations that Google put into Linux for their own container system). Even as Google has begun monetizing, they still open source core parts of their products (such as Kubernetes) for their benefit.

They actually do something like that. It's called Summer of Code.

if you don't land anything, maybe consider Google Summer of Code.

I maintain a project called Meshery and one of the new contributors (who came in to get a GSoC internship) literally asked if I could explain what Meshery is.

var req2 = http.GetStringAsync("https://lobste.rs");

"I actually wish we had a hacker community like this without the business/startup side at all"

Sounds like you want https://lobste.rs

Well, there's https://lobste.rs/, or we could all go back to slashdot I guess

Requesting https://github.com/lobsters/lobsters as I'm going through that codebase and would be able to provide feedback. cheers

ps. just gonna second everyone else who's saying being able to edit out incorrect data is very important, otherwise people are gonna be weary of reading repos they aren't already familiar with.

> Hacker News, but also lobster.rs

First time I hear about it. I think you meant https://lobste.rs
