Today is Fibonacci Day. November 23 if written in MM/DD format recalls the #mathematician Leonardo Bonaccio of Pisa (c. 1170 - c. 1240 or 50) aka Fibonacci’s sequence (1,1,2,3…) where each number is the sum of the previous two. He used it to describe rabbit populations, but the sequence is commonly observed in nature, including in the spiral of a nautilus shell.🧵

I blogged my thoughts on receiving generative AI contributions as an Open Source project maintainer https://blastedbio.blogspot.com/2025/11/thoughts-on-generative-ai-contributions.html - seen with #Bioinformatics and #Biopython in particular in mind, but most of these issues are generic to #OpenSource development. It worries me #GenAI

I counted: 75 people/families are listed on https://gaza-verified.org/people/
I'd avise to give if you can, send a nice work if you can't.

@servo launch sponsorship tiers to help fund more rapid development:
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Servo-Sponsorship-Tiers
IMO Servo is still our best chance at a fast, modern alternative to Chrome's Blink renderer taking over the web.
Tiers start at as little as $100, but if you don't have that to spare, consider sharing to try and reach potential sponsors who do!
Cereal ports, for connecting a hull modem cable with the correct pin-oat. Beware wiring quality or you could end up with croptalk and bad seednal propagation.
Some setups could do with a germinating resistor pack.
I’ll delete this if you pay me.
Pay more and I might apologise too.

Der Medienwissenschaftler @martinandree hat das Nutzungsverhalten der Menschen an ihren digitalen Geräten untersucht und gemessen, wie lange sie pro Tag welche Angebote nutzen. Dabei ist herausgekommen, dass die Big-Tech-Unternehmen praktisch die gesamte Aufmerksamkeit der Menschen bekommen.
In den Frankfurter Heften habe ich mir Gedanken dazu gemacht, welche Probleme sich daraus ableiten und welche Lösungen möglich sind.

Good morning Fedi friends!
Some exciting news: I've been invited to speak at #BolognaTechWeek. They have a track called "Social Media Strategies" and for the first time ever they will talk about the #Fediverse !
I'll be on a panel alongside @niccolove & @morloi (who set this in motion - grazie!)
I'm not used to speaking about the Fediverse in Italian... so this week I will translate some of my #TheFutureIsFederated articles... so I can practice 🤗
Wishing you all a great week!
Mia moglie mi ha dato questo strofinaccio per piatti, ormai liso (l'ha ereditato da sua madre) da usare come straccio nella #mastofficina 😲
Se a qualche persona qui potesse interessare lo tengo da parte.

Europe Must Abandon Appeasement and Confront Trump’s Hostile America
The failure of European leaders' strategy of accommodation proves that Trump's United States has become an adversary, not an ally, demanding a fundamental shift in EU policy.

Yo, aujourd’hui BD de type « errance mélancolique illustrée », c’est un format que j’aime beaucoup, bien que moins narratif :)
Je bosse pas mal en ce moment sur 2/3 fanzines qui devraient voir le jour entre dans 2 semaines et février 2026 !
...Et bien sûr, entre temps je vous posterais des bêtises horny ici :D
Y’all know me❤️
These days, I’m extremely busy with my household responsibilities: "preparing food, lighting the fire, & tutoring my little brother." My mom is taking care of my grandmother, who recently suffered a fracture, & I am currently the stand-in soldierin here
If you would like to support me until I can be out & find a job to help my family, here’s the donation link. (The donations for the shelter rent, & the costs of food, drink, & clothes)
Don't miss this keynote by @cwebber and @jboy!
