My employer, Shopify, announced layoffs today and I've been affected. If you're looking for someone with deep experience with developer tooling and developer environments, I'd love to work with you. I've spent the last two years building Shopify's in-house cloud developer environment, and I have extensive experience building developer tools as one of members of the Homebrew package manager's Project Leadership Committee.

Little doodle based on Mermay trends! (Though she's not actually a mermaid, so I'm not gonna tag it that way.)
Trying some poses and foreshortening.
I'll re-introduce her as a proper character Soon™.

Support the WGA strike! This is one of the first strikes (that I know of) to focus on preventing companies from replacing writers with algorithms. Seems like something that newspaper guilds will grapple with soon too. https://www.wgacontract2023.org/strike-hub

instead of dealing with dot socials spam every few months

just defederate from them and never worry about it again

Welp, I have a situation ongoing.

The debit card that I use for my disability payment deposits is set to expire at the end of this month, and I have put in for a new card that should arrive in the mail tomorrow.

The problem is, they cancelled and deactivated my current card, and thusly I can't use it at the ATM to withdraw money to pay my rent or any other bills.

It's that time again, where disabled broke folks need food. It's me, I'm disabled broke folks. Out of milk, bread, pancakes, only one thing of chicken left. I could make the dry goods we have mean something with ground turkey and milk. Get some photo art, toss a dino a dime?

Is Godot Jolt close to being ready? https://github.com/godot-jolt/godot-jolt

#GodotEngine even feels like a completely new engine w/ physics from Jolt!

Now even CharacterBody3D move_and_slide is kind of working in Jolt and all the physics issues I have with the CharacterBody3D using Godot 4 Physics are not present with Jolt (specifically getting stuck in geometry and stuttering when colliding with convex hulls).

Can't wait for it to be ready! It's what Godot 4 is missing for 3D.

If you're running up against the "legally, he had to return it" argument, the FTC disagrees:

<<
**Your Rights When You Get Unordered Merchandise**

By law, companies can’t send unordered merchandise to you, then demand payment. That means you never have to pay for things you get but didn’t order. You also don’t need to return unordered merchandise. You’re legally entitled to keep it as a free gift.

If you're an "A.I" desinger or engineer who genuinely believes your work will be or is already "conscious" in a "human-like" way, then the first thing imma need you to do tomorrow is teach it not to cross the picket line 🤷🏾‍♂️

GoToSocial (so far) has been trying to maintain compatibility with the Mastodon API, to maximize the number of clients compatible with our ActivityPub server implementation. The Mastodon "base" API implementation is still underway (e.g. we're missing lists), but we have been aware of the fact that maintaining API compatibility with all future features would forever have us in a state of "catch-up".

Given recent announcements about the direction that Mastodon development is being taken, and our own fears about the future of the Mastodon project, we are declaring a cut-off point. GoToSocial will only be attempting to maintain Mastodon API compatibility up to the current stable version, that is, v4.1.2.

Now this does not mean that we will never implement future features of Mastodon, it just gives us more flexibility in exactly what and how we implement things, especially when it comes to the more ethically complex ones (looking at you, search!).
