HI,
thank you for the long introduction.
As a site note it is not about quality of product or number of functional advantages or disadvantages when it comes to Windows vs Linux vs MAC.
It is more about how people are involved in it's use and growth as well as number of people contributing and the freedom.
So Linux has advantage in that context, else every OS will have different plus and minus points.
Given that you are curious about so many things, you can certainly help the community.
Orca as you may be already aware is programmed in Python.
So you have a start there.
Do write back and any member of the community will be able to
help in anything.
Hi folks, I have just subscribed to this list, and thus I thought it might be good to introduce myself. My name is Rastislav Kiss, I am from Slovakia. You could possibly know me from other lists and forums, like audiogames.net, eyes-free or The voice mailing list. For those who don't know me, what will be most likely the majority :), I am practically blind, with weak sensations of light. My personality is a scientist, I like playing and experimenting with almost everything you can thing of. My favourite sciences are mathematics, physics and artificial intelligence, but there are almost no limits when it comes to my interests, so I have been quite fascinated with neurobiology, computational chemistry or astrophysics as well, and the list could continue. I have also quite good skills in programming, my top three languages are C#, Python and Rust, but I know more of course, such as C++, Java, Ruby or _javascript_. I am infact newbie on Linux, although I was trying it few times in the past in vms, just few days ago I took this finally seriously and installed Ubuntu mate 20.04 as my daily driver. I'm not one of those guys, who switched to Linux, declaring Windows to be the worst os in the world, or in any way worse than the open platform. I like and appreciate both systems equally, both of them took a lot of work to get into state in which they are, and both are very good in what they're made for. I didn't switch because I was insatisfied, but for pure exploration purposes. I have already get used to the system quite well. When I find out more about Linux' internal working and port my development tools, I would like to lend my hand to Orca as well. What is necessary to do in order to contribute to the project? Except actual coding of course. :) I apologize if this sounds super-stupid, but I have really no idea how is the development organized. I'd really appreciate, if someone pointed me to the right direction, so I don't produce more chaos than necessary :). I guess thats it for first post, I hope it wasn't too long. :) have a nice day!
