Hey Friends - I'm helping coordinate a fundraiser for a memorial scholarship awarded to women and nonbinary STEM students.
There's a big opportunity today, we're entered in a challenge where the group with the largest *number* of donors between 3 and 4pm est gets an additional $2,000 from the university.
The minimum donation is just $5 - Can you help by donating or sharing during that time period?

We've reached browser levels I didn't think were possible: this company will run Chrome on their server and stream it back to you, because apparently chrome is too heavy to run on a mere desktop computer https://www.mightyapp.com
I'm willing to bet their app is in Electron too 🤦♀️

Microsoft now owns, or will soon own, one of the best text-to-speech engines for blind power-users, through its acquisition of Nuance. But the code has been abandoned for years. It seems unlikely that this TTS engine is a valuable asset for Microsoft. So let's petition them to open-source it. https://www.change.org/p/microsoft-open-source-eti-eloquence (No, I didn't start the petition, but I'm in agreement with it.)
