Attached: 1 image New #introduction to connect with all the new awesome people here 😊 Hi! 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.

super excited to be able to publicly share some of my work from the last few months :) Wanted to use GitHub Actions' OIDC IdP for per-repo access to AWS, but got stuck on AWS session tags not being compatible with GHA's claims?

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. Has anyone else tried this? #ZeroGreen #NorthStreetBristol #BS3 #Bedminster #EdibleCup #ZeroWaste #CoffeeCup

Urgh. Got woken up at 3:19am by a test of the earthquake alert system that was supposed to happen at 10:19am... but they accidentally scheduled it in UTC instead of California time zone! I mean, time zones are hard, but still - such a rookie error https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-10-19/california-earthquake-early-warning-test-goes-off-seven-hours-early

Started playing Deathloop yesterday and it’s exactly what I wanted from a Dishonored followup! Dishonored 2 is one of the few games I’ve played multiple times through, fully explored/unlocked everything and learnt how to speed run. And Deathloop leans into all those aspects in such a brilliant way!

Reddit is killing its blockchain based Community Points program because “the resourcing needed was unfortunately too high to justify”. An intern probably pointed out you could build an equivalent user points feature more quickly, cheaply and securely by just using a SQL database. Like, you know, Reddit’s existing karma system. 🙃 https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/17/reddit-is-phasing-out-community-points-blockchain-rewards/

Mmm, I had the loveliest of birthdays! I made some new cute friends, hung-out with mates, saw a fav person of mine, etc. Oh, and I looked like the cutest gothic lolita birthday princess you could imagine! 😸😸 Also thank you to everyone here who supports me who wished me a lovely birthday or sent me a gift, you're the best!

I’m very busy with Other Things in the run up to BarCamp on the 11th, so preparing a brand new talk would be a very silly thing to do. However, my stupid insomnia brain just thought of the perfect session idea, so now I’ve got to throw some slides together. Goodbye all of my free time until #bclxii

love how every time I have to sign in to Google for whatever reason, I get a whole bunch of TFA flows that lead back to the same device I’m signing in on, followed by a deluge of notifications both on-device and via email about the “SECURITY ALERT!!!!” about me having signed in. really wish people would stop using google forms for every fucking thing

Thank you lovely @techmids people for being such a great and engaged audience! Talking to you about your code, your skills and your #DocsAsCode future was excellent. If you'd like a copy of the slides, they are available here: https://noti.st/lornajane/73ScF3/docs-as-code-for-coders

For all the push back I get in some corners, there are always organizers who are eager to learn to do better. Thrilled to receive an email last night from a fellow FOSS foundation leader and organizer who wants to step up Health and Safety for their community! Progress comes drop by drop until suddenly the dam bursts. Today I am full of hope ✨ #HealthAndSafety #PublicHealthPledge #OpenSource

Open source people: "We don't get any contributions from people who will help us with accessibility 😢 😢 😢 what do?

As we progress into Q4 and the end-of-year budget cycle for many organizations, I’d like to have a conversation about budget surplus, and how to steer those dollars away from marketing efforts and into your open source infrastructure. Yes, Budget Surplus Is A Thing We can call it “budget

Attached: 1 image Okay but there’s a really useful lesson here about meeting your customers/users where they’re at. Food is meant to be eaten. And people might want to eat it in the *wrong* way. And the company that says “well, we should probably make it safe for them to do so” is going to have an advantage over the companies that insist people behave “properly”. Insert cyber analogy here.

I am beyond thrilled to see the OSI stepping up with https://opensource.net/ and filling the gap after RH stopped supporting opensource.com. If you want to write a blog post about open source and need a place to publish it, the OSI team was super helpful and easy to work with!

The thing about Conehead’s manifesto is, before even getting to the arguments, the technology he wants everyone to be optimistic about is FUCKING APPS and SCAMS. He’s equating himself and his pals to the biggest paradigm shifts in history when what he means is a new way to make the internet shit

"We set the story points to zero at the end of the sprint" These new scrum techniques are amazing, yo!

So, if I were going to make a tech manifesto, it might be something like: - protocols not platforms - coops and unions - technology should not actively hurt us - people not users - seven generations, seven continents - free markets require antitrust enforcement

sorry i just find it hilarious that either the nyt developed standards for their op-eds, or a fascist tech billionaire can’t buy their way into popular media
