Listen "S2 Ep2: Contribution"
Episode Synopsis
There are many ways to contribute to open source, do non code contributions get enough credit? What are people's motivations for participating in Hacktoberfest? Does the initiative actually have a negative impact? What can you get back from contributing, and where do we think our own contributions have most value? Join us as we talk all this and more, including plans for our upcoming hackathon, 🎵 The CanCon Umbrackathon 🎵, on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th October. Thank you and RIP Ruth Bader Ginsberg If you have any feedback, comments or questions you can tweet us @candidcontribs, email [email protected] or join the Umbraco Community slack channel #candid-contributions Links: * Ruth Bader Ginsberg: The Guardian's obituary https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/sep/19/ruth-bader-ginsburg-obituary * The official Hacktoberfest website: https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com * Alice in Tech Land comic: https://aliceintechland.org/comics/breaking-programmer-stereotypes * What's stopping you coding like this?
