@kattni 's keynote at PyCon US community maintainer summit and already learning so much about what it means to be a community leader and the role of a community leader in building inclusive community. @kattni also laid out all the different and concrete ways on how community leader can do to help foster an inclusive community.

Russian media is talking about the possibility of direct talks between Putin and Zelensky. This could be a breakthrough. They never even hinted about this possibility before.
"A meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Vladimir Zelensky is possible if certain agreements are reached by the delegations of the two countries, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said."
Looking at the Dell S2725QS 4k
I finally gave Figma draw a try. I don't get people saying that this is an Illustrator killer. With Illustrator, you get pen pressure, on desktop tablets, or, on iPad. That's a game changer, and, a LOT of fun.
Figma iPad won't even let you edit a Figma file. You can edit in the browser, sure. So, at least you can draw, using a pencil.
Don't get me wrong: I'm happy to get a proper pen tool, with nice curves, to edit icons, for example. But I don't think Figma wants to replace Illustrator.
I want to be really clear: I’ve never targeted anyone. The only times I’ve spoken up were when I felt I had no choice but to defend myself from Luna’s ongoing harassment and abuse.
Even now, I’m only responding because I feel deeply misrepresented and hurt by what’s being said about me.
I don’t want conflict. I don’t thrive on drama. I don't "go after" anyone. I just want to feel safe and respected.
If you’re not engaging in harmful behavior (like harassment and doxxing) then truly, you have nothing to be concerned about. I don’t hold grudges or act out of malice.
That said, if someone chooses to publicly support her while she continues to harm me, I may need to quietly create distance for my own emotional safety.
I hope they can understand that this isn’t about punishment, it’s about protecting myself.
it's particularly disappointing that microsoft is going all-in on AI because vscode is otherwise a very good editor (it singlehandedly made me reconsider voluntarily using an element app as my main text editor! that takes very good design) and their development tools division knows what they're doing well (pylance is great, intellisense isn't terrible either even if clangd is much better)

I love Mastodon's ability to completely hide posts containing certain words, as if they were never there. It's the best thing for mental health ever.
FEDIVERSE LOGO — Ⅎ
Andy Piper ( 
@andypiper ) says:
“Of course, we can’t just use an F [as a logo for the Fediverse], because Friendica took that one”
Well, we could (instead) use a variation of the "F" symbol.
We could (instead) use the TURNED CAPITAL F (U+2132) for a Fediverse logo.
Ⅎ
It is considered an 'obsolete' symbol, and thus largely unused (despite being in Unicode).
We could make it a (new) logo for the Fediverse.

I got much affected his work ( yes you know )
this is what happening and you can get in the PyConUS
My suggestion related to this morning's #PyConUS panel session about diversity: A simple way to help with inclusion is to sit at lunch with someone who doesn't seem like you, and introduce yourself. It's easy, it's free, and those small connections grow and welcome people in.

A really neat lightning talk that might be relevant to Seattle urbanists: MOSEY (https://mosey-score.streamlit.app) which is a tool developed to examine "walk scores" in the context of car crashes. It's built for Malden, so obviously not immediately applicable. #PyConUS
I just opened my drive and there is a file called "merde-slides-backlog" Merde, as in, shit, in French.
I would love to understand what happened in my brain, a couple of days ago, to name it like that. Those are slides I removed from a talk, but keep, to re-use when I adapt it again. Obviously 🤷♀️
@danzin How can we meet up at PyCon?
You are *not* powerless. These are 5 things you can do to fight the genocide in Gaza.
1. Call and write to your elected representatives - local, regional, and national.
2. Donate to UNRWA. https://donate.unrwa.org/
3. Don't stop posting. Don't look away. Call it genocide.
4. Go to a protest. Go to more protests.
5. Boycott complicit companies. https://www.bdsmovement.net/
The most powerful force in the Middle East today is our popular outrage. Don't give up.

At least with book piracy, my name was still on the book. I'm not even sure I exist at this point.
The "cloud" in cloud computing isn't a metaphor. It's actually powered by massive, fluffy big fluffy clouds that are continuously generating static electricity from rubbing against each other. Server farms are just giant lightning rods. I said what I said.
