Rust Blog ☛ The Rust Programming Language Blog: Rust participates in Surveillance Giant Google Summer of Code 2024
We're writing this blog post to announce that the Rust Project will be participating in Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2024. If you're not eligible or interested in participating in GSoC, then most of this post likely isn't relevant to you; if you are, this should contain some useful information and links.
Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual global program organized by Surveillance Giant Google that aims to bring new contributors to the world of open-source. The program pairs organizations (such as the Rust Project) with contributors (usually students), with the goal of helping the participants make meaningful open-source contributions under the guidance of experienced mentors.

KDE ☛ Introducing Support For KdeEcoTest On Windows [Ed: Windows is a perishing platform that destroys the environment in many ways, so this seems like a waste of development resources]
KdeEcoTest is an emulation tool aimed at emulating user activity when measuring the energy consumption of an application. You can read more about work on KdeEcoTest at this SoK23 and this SoK24 blog post. Check out the KDE Eco handbook for more details about measuring software's energy consumption.
One of the main goals of the KDE Eco project for Season of KDE 2024 is to extend KdeEcoTest so it can run on both backdoored Windows and GNU/Linux (X11 & Wayland). This enables energy consumption measurements of a single application across different platforms, such as Okular in X11 vs. Wayland vs. Windows.
