That _one_ parent who keeps insisting we hold a high school reunion. There are a number of classmates I quite like and stay in touch with, but the last thing I want to do is volunteer my time to convene, or attend, an event that dredges up the many traumas I've spent the last 20 years recovering from.

Intro After attending Techmids I decided to revisit setting up my own blog, because at the end of the day its documentation. Doing it at work then thinking over how to improve is a daily part of our craft. This thought was due to a talk by [Jamie Tanna](https://www.jvt.me/] on his Open Source project Dependency Management Data. Which tangentially led me to his blog and the indieweb movement of taking back control of your content.

Intro Attended Tech Mids today met Julian and Colin. I watched the following conference talks Thinking about inclusion with Molly Quantifying your reliance on Open Source Software Rethinking Content Modelling for Unforgettable User Experiences Fantastic SDKs, and how to build them Essential Insights into API-first Tooling Junior Developer to CTO - battle-hardened principles to live by In an API is published and not one is told, does it have value?

personally if i were a holy prophet i would find it pretty weird to name your kids after me. millions of people calling my name but actually they're yelling at their toddlers. what the hell

This is just another reminder to me that when some people start banging the “free speech” drum, you’re only really free to say sentiments preapproved by the establishment. It’s also easily observed that the people who *say* facts don’t care about feelings consistently and ruthlessly prioritise their discomfort (read: feelings) and use that as feeble justification to reject the facts. Some of you wonder why people like myself couldn’t see you as anything other than a bad-faith actor you present yourselves to be.

So… let me get this straight: Paddy Cosgrave – co-founder & chief executive officer of Web Summit, the largest tech conference in Europe –*correctly* called Israel’s war crimes “war crimes,” originally condemned Hamas’ attack while *correctly* insisting this doesn’t give Israel carte blanche to “break international law,” and everyone from Intel to Siemens is pulling out of the event in response? Listen… you can’t tell me there isn’t a rather coercive and corrupt double standard here.

I know people are mad with Hamas and correct me if I'm wrong but haven't the Israeli government "topped" Hamas in carnage now? Like they were throwing phosphorus in the air on people!

How retro kick ass is that? Flash is resurrected sans the neglected, proprietary, security ridden, plugin bs of Adobe; thanks to Rust, and modern day sandboxed WebAssembly. No plugin required; small, compact, compatible engine, that unlocks decades of lost SWF content in all its vector visuals, MP3 stereo, and ActionScript-y glory. https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle #flash #adobe #webdev #javascript #rust #retrogaming

I'm Skaly, an awkward neurodivergent queer who makes a lot of projects and does their best to be as ambitious as possible and to work with the different abilities and disabilities and not against them. I make a living from art, and it's super fluid and challenging but I do what I love, music, handmade jewelry, poetry and film. I'm 23 and UK based but looking to move to the US next year.

Attached: 1 image I bought a cup of coffee from Zero Green on North Street, it came in an edible cup. Normally I carry a reusable cup, but I was happy that I'd forgotten to bring it. The woman behind the counter informed me that the edible cup starts to break down after 40 minutes, so it's best to drink up before then. What a fantastic way to reduce waste.
