Modifying expectations! ⚓ https://ajadi-abiola.github.io/blog/Modifying-expectation ䷉ setting expectation very low by choosing #microsoft #proprietarySoftware #github for #outreachy
"Ojong is working with the #Fedora websites and apps team as an #Outreachy Intern. This blog post is her experience and project update so far." https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/outreachy-project-revamp-the-community-websites-and-applications-progress-update/
" #Outreachy has vast list of projects to work on but i chose Fedora and i am loving the experience so far, and i am hoping even after the internship i will still be an active contributor to Fedora." https://vanessa-kris.github.io/job-description.html
The companies that pay into #Outreachy are at the same time ruining #computerscience education, producing trained (e.g. memorising GUIs) slackers instead of actual programmers. Later they wonder where all the coders went...
It's quite revealing that #Outreachy is failing when so many interns write no code but instead create #microsoft #ProprietarySoftware accounts, giving Microsoft traffic (and sometimes bits of not-so-good code). The companies that pay for this are, at the same time, abusing women. Gulag even pays the perpetrators, not the victims. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ryanmac/andy-rubin-court-complaint-lawsuit-rie-divorce-google
#Outreachy helps the most guilty (e.g. companies and oligarchs who abuse women) feel good about themselves http://techrights.org/2021/12/30/outreachy-funding/
This internship seems to have involved only learning, barely doing anything https://vanessa-kris.github.io/week7-blog-post.html #Outreachy

"One of my female interns in the #Outreachy program wrote about a sponsor, Gulag, stalking her. In response, all she received were threats and insults. Gulag set about discrediting my intern and I just as #Facebook has tried to discredit Frances Haugen." https://danielpocock.com/ashling-murphy-jill-meagher-running-apps-harassment-safety/
’Diversity’ Funding From Enablers of #AdolfHitler (Not a Joke, Not Even Funny) • Techrights ⚓ http://techrights.org/2021/12/30/outreachy-funding/ ䷉ #Techrights #outreachy #sfc #whitewashing | ♾ Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2021/12/30/outreachy-funding/
I worry greatly that Gulag Summer of Labour (GSOC) and #outreachy have inadvertently become or been recycled as a "comfort women" programme. And almost nobody in the #freesw community is willing to talk about it for fear of backlash... #google #misogyny
In early 2018, I was mentoring a woman "from a developing country in the #Outreachy program. The woman wrote a blog about mass surveillance (backup link in case of #Github #censorship ), she included the following picture" http://techrights.org/2020/11/03/the-harassment-claims-in-full/ #gulag
#Outreachy seems to be picking people who don't know how to code and outsource things to #Microsoft 's #proprietarysoftware instead of promoting #Freesoftware https://ajadi-abiola.github.io/blog/Everyone-Struggles! #github 'diversity': http://techrights.org/2021/12/08/balabhadra-alex-graveley-arrest-warrant-and-affidavit/
Sometimes it feels like #outreachy is designed to improve not diversity but the inclusion of unqualified people whose code eventually gets discarded for low quality (if any code is produced at all)
