Random links & images: kesäkuuta 2015

I have been programming for some time now, starting my second year in college, majoring in CS and all. I know the basics of a few languages, mostly C++, Java, and Python. However, considering how many local internships are looking for Java experience than anything else, I've been looking increase my skills in Java through contributing to some open-source projects on Github.

However, there a lot, and looking at some of the code-bases I just find myself disoriented. So, I was wondering if there are any Java projects that are a bit more beginner friendly on Github?

Many thanks!

/r/Inoreader is diving into a new era!

I'm here to announce that /r/Inoreader is diving into a new era!

Since the previous moderator had no further interest on Inoreader or /r/inoreader, i decided that this service deserves a better Reddit community. So, i asked him to add me as a moderator, he kindly agreed, de-modded himself and trusted the future of this subreddit in my hands. :)

But who am i? This is DJDB. I'm a tech journalist and a big supporter of RSS as the best way to get, manage and curate my favorite content. After Google Reader shutdown and a lot of researching, testing and subscribing, i ended up using Inoreader everyday, for the past two years. I even translated the project in my native language.

So, to clear it up and to keep it transparent: i'm not an employee of Inoreader and i make no profit from it. I'm just a user of this service who thinks that Inoreader is the best RSS feed reader available right now and that it has a great potential to develop even further. This is not a subreddit to support a company. This is a subreddit to support the users of a service that promotes and takes advantage of RSS (Rich Site Summary), a format for delivering regularly changing web content. I want /r/Inoreader to become an unofficial community for Inoreader, even with the participation of Inoreader's developers (since they are able to provide official technical support).

Keep it up and welcome back!

EDIT: Just updated the stylesheet :).

Private Dropbox alternative- examples wanted.

I'm sorry if this seems like a frequently asked question but I want to move away from Dropbox and instead host my files on my home R-Pi server with full disk encryption. I have had a look at all the solutions and despite Owncloud looking the best, I dont want to open a webserver onto the internet. I presumed that rsync would do this but there doesnt seem to be a simple, solid solution to replicate the features of Dropbox. If you use a similar reliable solution would you please describe what you do?

Redditin pimeä puoli

Nyt kun /r/fatpeoplehate suljettiin voitaisiin myös täällä ärsuomen puolella ihmetellä Redditin pimeämpää puolta. Eli linkatkaa hämärin, inhottavin tai oudoin subreddit minkä tiedätte. Keskustelu sallittua ja jopa toivottavaa.

OP aloittaa: /r/philosophyofrape. Toivon että tuo olisi jokin synkkä vitsi mutta eipä taida olla.

Niin ja voi myös jakaa mielipiteensä tästä Redditin uudesta moderoinnista. Onko jees että ihmisryhmiä loukkaavat tai muulla tavalla epäkorrektit subredditit suljetaan? Onko syynä ainoastaan tehdä Redditistä houkuttelevampi mainostajille? Siirtyykö aidosti vapaa keskustelu esim. Voatin puolelle?
