Ask HN: Anyone looking for contributors for their open source projects
Actually yes! It could even be paid in the context of this year's Google Summer of Code:
https://github.com/borgbase/vorta
Or if you join as mentor, you will be supporting the Python Foundation.
If interested, just email the address in my HN profile.

What's your backup flow on Mac with Borg like?
I use the Vorta Borg Desktop Client and the backups live on an inexpensive Storage VPS.

To encrypt my system
If you need to encrypt your backups (or even if you don't) I would suggest borgbackup and vorta, it makes differential backups so each one after the first is only the size of the changes mine are roughly 50 MiB each, so its much faster and space efficient than whole backups using something like tar or rsync.

Path to a free, self-taught education in Computer Science
A bit like me. Got started setting up a webshop for my first startup and had to learn Apache and PHP.
If anyone with similar skills (Python, Docker, Shell) reads this and looks do get started, do check out our Google Summer of Code projects for this year. You'll get paid and can pick any task in this field: https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code...

For the developers in this subredsit, how is your overall experience with void linux, and how stable would you say it is?
I had to compile gcalcli, which eventually got merged in the repos. I also compiled Vorta and Grace.
