I've submitted my resignation letter to Apple. My last day will be this Friday, October 31st.

I'm starting a nonprofit company to create FOSH (Free Open Source Hardware) assistive consumer electronics, focused initially on assistive consumer electronics for blind people. I plan to release many small intermediate products for the maker community.

I plan to start working full time starting November 1st at Brain Computer Enterprises, Cooperative Inc.

Do you work at or know a #nonprofit on #Mastodon in the #UnitedStates?

Thanks to @privacyguides for the review of our platform!

“After using their platform for the past few weeks, I can comfortably write that Hush Line accomplishes its mission astoundingly well. Not only is customer support excellent for enterprise users, but its integration with PGP encrypted email makes it a lifesaver for a Thunderbird user like me. The ability to receive encrypted notifications via email is honestly an underrated feature.”

Hey fediverse #nonprofit people,

I've got a project (missionlibre.org), which is meant to bring kids aged 11-14 into #freesoftware. No part of it has been easy -- not practically, not personally.

I think Mission:Libre is wonderful, but I'm struggling: it's an odd little project in a complicated situation and I'm trying to find a way forward. I could really use an ear and some practical advice from someone with experience. Are you able to help me?

During the year’s busiest season of charitable giving, donors may wonder whether the nonprofits they are considering donating to are going to be good stewards of their money.

Our Nonprofit Explorer can help you look into that: https://www.propublica.org/article/propublica-nonprofit-explorer-audits-financial-health-tools?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post
