The researches from @wearenew_public who think about how to design healthy digital public spaces, gave a talk about building a social network for local neighborhood communities.

Our Local Lab team was excited to share experiments and compare notes at #MozFest in Barcelona this weekend
For fucks sake. @julie-brill.bsky.social managed to completely screw up @audreyt.org’s pronouns while introducing them and then dismissed it by saying “whatever”. @mozilla.org why have someone moderate a #mozfest panel on the main stage who can’t get basic pronouns of trans panelists right?
The @mozilla team has done a spectacular job for MozFest 2025. What a stunning setting to envision a technological future that empowers humans and is based on shared values. If you‘re also in Barcelona and would like to chat about Open Data and Open Source AI send me a DM, I‘m here until Monday! #mozfest #mozfest2025 #mozillafestival #mozilla #opensource #ai
Things #Mozfest does really well:
* pronouns stickers
* lanyards to signal that you don’t want to be photographed
* plenty of time and space to mingle and network
* easy discovery of the unexpected
* content mixed with art

Som-hi! #mozfest
We are thrilled with the renewed attention that The Carpentries has received for deciding to withdraw a $1.5 million proposal to the National Science Foundation (NSF), thanks to a recent similar decision made by the Python Software Foundation ( @ThePSF) and the shout-out they gave us when they announced it.
PSF raised $65K+ within 24 hours of making their announcement, an amount which rose to $135K+ within a week in solidarity funds from 1400+ donors and 270+ new members. This is incredible financial support to PSF from the Python community!
The Carpentries has an open appeal to our community and the general public for donations and sponsorships to help us make up the shortfall in funds due to our proposal withdrawal. We are deeply grateful for the encouragement and solidarity we received in response. We value all contributions!
Our choice came with financial challenges. In the context of our operating budget ($1.2 million in 2024), $1.5 million is a significant amount of money.The loss of those anticipated NSF funds, therefore, represents a substantial impact on our sustainability.
With this renewed attention to values-based decision making, we would like to use this opportunity to highlight The Carpentries' continued need for financial support. We hope that Python community members and like-minded organisations will also support the work of The Carpentries in some way.
The support the Python community has shown to PSF for its decision has given us hope in the sustainability of open science communities. Please consider extending your generosity to our organisation’s fundraising efforts, and help us to reach more individuals that are aligned to our mission and values: https://carpentries.org/support/
The Executive Director of The Carpentries @drkariljordan is attending the Mozilla Festival 2025 @mozilla #MozFest from 7-9 November in Barcelona, Spain - we encourage you to connect with her for an opportunity to chat about sponsorship and how you can support our work.

Goes big in #barcelona
I made this installation piece awhile back out of all my conference tags. Loads of #mozfest name badges are in there. Art is never finished, so I guess I'll need to figure out what I do with the badge I get this weekend in Barcelona
