My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

Hi fedi! @darius and I are digging into our governance research, and we have a great starter list of server admins to potentially talk to about governance and administration models and challenges, but *very unofficially*, I’d love to hear suggestions, too.
We’re looking at active servers ranging from ~100-2,500 users with some flex on either end of the range, and we’re building our list with an eye on structural, geographic, demographic (along multiple axes), and linguistic diversity.

Please stop making software that’s vulnerable to SQL injection attacks. It’s 2024. Learn about parameterized queries. Please.
Please.

At Torment Nexus, instead of "setting the employee on fire", we prefer to think of it of it as "facilitating the next step of someone's combustion journey"

Ugh, someone set this TfL bus information display to German — clearly it should say “502 to Gateway Spa”

re: constructive sabotage idea for anti-capitalists
(Note that for this to be a net positive to an anti-capitalist cause, the 'clearly better' needs to be on an axis *other than* business efficiency)
constructive sabotage idea for anti-capitalists
Build FOSS software that's clearly better than the alternatives, but make it *exactly* the right amount of hostile-to-corporations; so that it is frustrating to use and slows down business processes, but isn't *so* bad that it justifies buying or developing an alternative
Take advantage of corporations' inability to see the long-term costs resulting from short-term savings. If they can enshittify our software, we can enshittify theirs
Also works with existing projects that are already widely adopted by corporations

Who is working on accessibility of maths _research_?
I know lots of people looking at improving maths education, but is there anything interesting happening in research?
The only ideas I have at the moment are to talk to @pkra; Volker Sorge's work on spoken maths in MathJax; and the arXiv team's work on converting preprints to HTML.
Are there any physical disability issues that affect research mathematicians?

So have I got this right?
We've known for about a decade (and had reasonable suspicions for about 2 decades) that the Post Office #Horizon system was well dodgy and people were being wrongly convicted, but the government are finally acting now because someone made a telly programme about it?
Could someone maybe make a telly programme about #ClimateChange?
