Brcon2024: Ideology track announcement. Troels Henriksen will talk about forced labour.
Does the title sound boring and stupid for a technology conference? Don't
stop reading!
Troels Henriksen (Athas), main author of the Futhark programming languge,
who works at the Copenhagen, will talk about an interesting way in
getting contributions into your open source project: Forced labour in
academia. Is this a way forward to more contribution in any field? How
can this be used for the good of humanity? It will be an interesting
talk!
Here is a warm welcome Troels! We are happy to have you at brcon2024!
After this talk, 20h will talk about the State of Bitreich and some upcoming
topic: As you all know, the Bitreich manifesto says "Suckless failed." But
manifestos can be changed, they are texts.
20h has been in contact with arg, the founder of suckless, to remedy the
problems of the past and work on a bright future for both projects. In
the talk he will tell you about the state of this discussion. After the
talk, based on the presented ideas, there will hopefully be a big
discussion about the future of both projects.
Will Suckless and Bitreich unite? How can both projects support
eachother? Where could we go? Those questions can hopefully be answered.
Stay tuned for the announcement of the other tracks! Interesting topics
are in queue. And follow the development of the schedule here:

Have fun!
Sincerely yours,
20h
Chief Conference Officer (CCO)
