i'm not too worried if there's a lot of overlap with the scie-jump project because that came out of our collaboration together at twitter in 2019-2020 that led to pip install --report. sharing code would be good but i think the approaches are meaningfully distinct
[obviously i want to make john sirois jealous so he'll like me again. that is absolutely something that motivates me. but so far i am confident that is not affecting my architectural decisions here]

@kissane @RakowskiBartosz A person I disliked, in part because he always acted entitled to my attention (sometimes creepily), approached me at a conference reception to say that I had blocked him on Twitter, probably b/c he'd landed on a blocklist, so would I reconsider?
Yeah, no, I'd blocked him by hand. And did not appreciate him cornering me about it.
I... wouldn't want to give more like him an opening for this harassy dodge.
I asked a friend to escort me back to my hotel post-reception.
@dsalo @RakowskiBartosz Yeah, I once had a conference attendee talk me into going to a nearby cafe with *such special coffee* in a city I didn't know at all, and it turned out he wanted to get me alone and put me on the spot about why I'd blocked him. People are strange.

Help me decide between headshots! These are the white background ones…
@yaelwrites One of the "pockets" ones, I like the first hands-in-pockets one best (upper-right).
I might have said the same as my final wish... but since Jane said it first, let's get that done.

My total income this year is a little bit above €28,550.52 but not by much; I think it's maybe €35,000 or €38,000 in total (just whatever small amounts of freelance work I could pick up)
I should also note that once I've enough to be comfortable, that's when I can start funding people to help me with the work I'm doing and lifting others that are doing cool work up too.

Oh, I hadn't spotted that: "China [saw] a 2% drop in its use of fossil fuels in the first half of the year compared with the same months in 2024, Ember found. Over the same period India grew its renewable energy by more than three times its electricity demand – which was significantly weaker this year – causing its coal and gas use to fall by 3.1% and 34% respectively."
Thank-you.

@kris_of_pnictogen Let’s just leave it here, ok. I’m not really into casually insulting people on the internet. Enjoy your slice of the fediverse.
@Taweret what the fuck?!?!
@simonjust that's 100% correct, and there's a phrase in the ATmosphere (AT Protocol community) that is: "We can just do things"
And I want to enable that for ActivityPub
@thisismissem That's very cool!
I'd imagine some kind of Fediverse wide brainstorming session in which people try to come up with ideas that could be fun to build.. Like cool integrations and perhaps something that is very different from social media apps (that we know and love, but we got plenty 😂 ) .

Across nearly 100 submissions to our #StopCensoringAbortion survey, we saw systemic over-enforcement, convoluted policies, sudden account bans, and ignored appeals. On Friday, leaders from EFF, Plan C, M+A Hotline, and Women on Web will discuss what’s happening and the future of sharing info online.
