Just learned about @pyOpenSci : "We support the scientific Python tools that drive open science through peer review, training and community building. " #PyConUS
#OpenSupplyHubhttps://opensupplyhub.org/ is a nonprofit working to map supply chains in order to reduce the human rights abuses and environmental harm made possible by a lack of visibility. #PyConUs
@simon sorry to put you on blast. Mitigating CO2 emissions is at the top of my tech priority list, so it's jarring when it seems like an afterthought. I'd love to see more talks on how to track or reduce emissions
I don't really have anything to back this up but I really feel like so many people getting multiple Covid infections have affected the way a lot of people process and react to things.
@BlackAzizAnansi I definitely know people with long covid who report experiencing that themselves. And I have a similar vague impression from my interaction with other people in general
Anyone else unable to access @protonprivacy protonmail? I've tried both ff and chrome, with and without VPN. I get:

Seeing the latest images out of Gaza, thinking about how Israel is the quintessential latest-high-tech-fueled nightmare & having a cognitive dissonance seeing the discourse in AI ethics, responsible AI & such 🤔
E.g. "Responsible AI" at Google should be synonymous with joining the #NoTechApartheid movement. If not that, I'm not sure what you're doing.
I'm glad students at MILA organized a reading group against Military AI. But it was not thanks to anything "responsible AI" happening there.
A few days ago, I saw a post talking about #enshittification and how it can exclude people from being able to participate in society (transportation, healthcare, etc.) I forgot to bookmark, anyone know the post I'm referring to?
TLDR: You follow 40 people, but the people who post infrequently tend to get their posts flooded off the TL by high-volume accounts such as me (mcc) asking cursed C# questions at odd hours. Wouldn't it be cool if you could get the best elements of a sort-by-last-post view and a sort-by-account view in a single screen? (See screenshots at link.)
Anyone know of good FOSS wikis that allow real-time collaboration? Hackpad (the etherpad fork) was pretty good before dropbox shut it down, and there doesn't seem to be much out there right now.
follow up question: are there any of these mistakes where you USED to make them but found a trick to avoid making the mistake that worked? what was the trick, and which mistake did it help you avoid?
(as usual, only interested in tricks that you have personally used successfully)
@b0rk a lot of these are just things I avoid now, like "commit -a". One that I have used sucessfully is to rebase a working branch periodically, or at least before submitting a PR. It's also a good way to identify two people working on the same code and encourage the necessary communication to prevent conflicts
OK. I'm doing a Tournament of Years. I'll do a poll about the last 16 years, scrambled. Winner of each round goes on to a championship at the end. Here are the brackets (randomized):
@chargrille I'm amazed that I haven't seen these guidelines before. I've been reading everything I can and have done a lot of searching about testing guidelines. It seems like it isn't easily discoverable.
i really liked this article about tailwind https://joshcollinsworth.com/blog/tailwind-is-smart-steering (by a frontend dev who dislikes tailwind). I love tailwind and it helped me understand why some other people have a different perspective
@b0rk this is interesting. I haven't done much web dev over the last decade but I used to do a lot. I read this to see if I would like tailwind. I can't tell. Im probably what the author calls a crafter, but I like frameworks to be explicit and not rely on convention. It seems like there author's builder/crafter spectrum might need more dimensions
