New Books in TechnologyNadia Eghbal, "Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software" (Stripe Press, 2020)Open source is the once-radical idea that code should be freely available to everyone. Open-source software was once an optimistic model for public collaboration, but is now a near-universal standard. But most open-source code is not developed by big teams or equitable collaborations; it’s maintained by unseen individuals who work tirelessly to write and publish code that's consumed by millions.In Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software (Stripe Press), Nadia Eghbal takes an inside look at modern open source software development and its evolution over the last two decades.

Feeling of ComputingSustaining the Underfunded: Nadia EghbalTwo years ago, Nadia Eghbal "stumbled onto the internet's biggest blindspot": sustainability of open-source.

In this conversation, we discuss how she found "stumbled onto" this problem initially, and her road from the Ford Foundation to GitHub and now Protocol Labs. We discuss the challenges of indepdendent research and remote work... and how being able to find amazing...
