We did it! Y'all are absolutely amazing, and together we've matched $17,000, for a total of $34k raised for @ThePSFPython Software Foundation!

A personal thank you to everyone who donated, and an extra heap of thanks and gratitude to @glyph for organizing and managing all of this. And of course, thank you again to every single person at the PSF, and all of the board members, for being a model of ethics for the rest of the world! :python: mastodon.social/@glyph/1154935

Screenshot of my donation receipt to the PSF for $1000 plus the 3% to cover processing fees.

I’ve been working on getting comfortable in Python these past few months. I made this today with Pillow. It was fun, clunky, and sprinkled with a TINY bit of heavily scrutinized vibe code 😅.

As an R user working towards polyglot status, “pythonic” docs still trip me up (tidyverse really spoiled me). As I start building more in Python, I’d love to help make its documentation feel more ... approachable?... with the things I build.

💻 But for now, code for this is here: tinyurl.com/2ec7v6fn

RE: mastodon.social/@anewsocial/11

Today, we're taking our first step into the moderation tools we've been wanting to build for Bridgy Fed for a while now. The reason we're launching this small iteration first is that: (1) it's recently become more urgent for our community, and (2) we want to discuss our ideas publicly. Some...

It looks like federation is working! I'll keep the horizontal format videos on , and vertical, short-format videos here: @Moxxi@loops.video
The videos load perfectly on the Android Mastodon app, yay! It'll be more convenient than having to exit your phone app to end up on a website designed for desktop to watch a 10-second video designed for your phone! You don't even need the Loops app! The hashtags work but maybe I should use something else than for the videos?

Datasette 1.0a20 is out, featuring an entirely new SQL-powered permissions system. This is by far the most ambitious project I've attempted with the help of coding agents (Claude Code and Codex CLI in this case) - here are detailed notes on how it works and what I learned along the way

A new SQL-powered permissions system in Datasette 1.0a20

Datasette 1.0a20 is out with the biggest breaking API change on the road to 1.0, improving how Datasette’s permissions system works by migrating permission logic to SQL running in SQLite. …

In the upcoming release you will be able to follow any blog on the XMPP network directly by clicking on the [Follow] button without being mutually friends (like it was until now), its a small change but with big impacts 😁!

We wrote a detailed and accessible article that explains the differences between the network and the and shows how blogs are handled on the XMPP network a bit more in details 😸

If you are curious to see how XMPP works (spoiler: it's pretty simple in the end 😌) checkout our article (and don't forget to leave a ♥️ or a comment!

When you email issues to Obsidian Entertainment (the video game company) their AI support hallucinates and tells you to email Obsidian (the note-taking company) instead.

The perils of trusting an LLM with your customer support.

Thanks so much for reaching out and for the kind words about the game, we're thrilled you're loving Outer Worlds 2! It's great to hear you're even trying to contribute feedback on the issue tracker. You've run right into a common security feature where disabling 2FA also requires a current code to prove you're the account owner making the change. Since your issue is with the Obsidian account system (for the issue tracker) and involves account security, this is something our specialized account security team needs to handle directly. They're the only ones who can verify your ownership and safely disable the authenticator app link without a current code. Please email their dedicated support channel directly right now at support@obsidian.md. - In your email, explain exactly what you told me: you lost access to your authenticator app, you used a backup code to log in, but you can't disable 2FA because it still asks for an authenticator code. - Mention that you can provide any proof of account ownership they need. The support team at that address is equipped to work through the necessary identity verification steps to get that 2FA disabled for you.

Reviving History Amid Ruins: Gaza’s Spirit of Education Lives On

In a testament to Gaza’s resilience, local volunteers have reopened the historic Ottoman-era Kamelia School, closed since 1949, transforming its long-abandoned halls into classrooms for displaced children.

Built during the Mamluk period and flourishing under Ottoman rule, the school now stands as a living symbol of education and endurance amid devastation.

Are you part of an open source project with a community of users, contributors, and/or third party developers?

I want to interview people about their projects with particular attention to how codebases, documentation, project management tooling, and community spaces are constructed.

On these "project tours" we'll go through your project together, on video call, and talk about how the structure of the project influences, and is influenced by, your goals, culture, logistical constraints, etc.

E-borrowing exceeds print at Vancouver libraries — can it keep up with the cost? | CBC News

For the first time in its history, loans of digital materials, such as e-books, e-magazines and music, have exceeded those of physical copies at the library, although online facsimiles cost three to five times as much.
