A weekly newsletter where I interview an open-source developer is a business in show hn launch.
Profile
The last two weeks of Console [1] I interviewed people who are not from the U.S. about their open-source projects. This got me thinking, are people outside the U.S. more prone to contribute to open-source than U.S. developers? So, I went looking by pulling in the location data for 500,000 publicly available repos to answer this question.Why 500,000? Well, GitHub rate limits their API to roughly 1 request per second [2], and I didn't want to wait a year to write about my findings, or abuse their API. Anyway, here are the results:None: 328, US: 232, Other: 38, United Kingdom: 29, Germany: 25, Canada: 17, Australia: 15, Switzerland: 9, Netherlands: 8, France: 8, Japan: 6, Romania: 5, Sweden: 5,
