Digital Defiance
Tackling the Nebraskan projects for all humankind
Join the Defiant effort against mediocre code and foreign actor exploits.
A non-profit group of Software Engineers working together to make the best use of their free time in order to further projects of value to mankind.
- Founded in 2022 by Jessica Mulein, aka “Freddie Mercurial” on GitHub with the help of BDisp and Rui Campos.
- We have our own passion projects which are generally for the planet, both fun/demonstrative as well as libraries to enable those.
- We also look for deserving open source projects that need either process coaching, an extra hand fixing bugs, or any other need.
- Contributors generally help each-other’s passion projects and work towards common goals as a team to work more effectively.
- Contributors receive peer mentoring and learn agile processes and enterprise development methodologies
- Everyone is essentially a partner in an open source group run like a high velocity agile team at any big enterprise
- Okay! Okay! You got me! Slow velocity, but we’ll get there!
- Also there is absolutely zero pressure to perform at any given time! Whatever anyone contributes is great, but try not to commit to work and vanish!
The Name
FreddieMercurial has been working on a massive scale project called “The Revolution Network” and “Digital Rebellion” was frankly all they could think of in line with that. After a team discussion and evolutionary process, “Digital Defiance” emerged unexpectedly and won.
