Hi mastodon! I have a bunch of new things in the shop! nora.jewelry/

Boosts are greatly appreciated, I'm trying to get a foothold here as Twitter dies.

I will be speaking in Indy the evening of May 3rd about Mental Health in the Dev Community. First live public speaking in 6 years.

Meta aka Instagram is working on a Twitter competitor that is rumored to be ActivityPub compatible.

If you run a fediverse instance (Mastodon, Pixelfed, Calckey and others), would you ban a Meta instance?

Boosts appreciated 👍 #fediverse #barcelona #activityPub #meta

@domenick On a related note, traditional buyers of pickup trucks are seeking alternatives. What will Chevy do when farmers give them the proverbial middle finger? urbanists.social/@straphanger/

So frustrating. After years of being priced too high and then also going through a complete battery recall, sales of the most affordable long-range #electricvehicles are finally strong.

Really hope they revive the nameplate for an Ultium-version and price it below $25,000. insideevs.com/news/664058/chev

@domenick I have a feeling it will still be a few years before GM/Chevy will chase volume/low-price sales on the Ultium platform. I think they are drooling over $50k Blazer EVs and $70k Silverado EVs. I think the Equinox EV will be mysteriously mostly available in the more expensive trims, kind of like the more expensive Bolt EUV is more available now than the Bolt EV by about 10:1. Those of us that are looking for a smaller, more efficient EV (4.0 mi/kWh or better) with a smaller/medium battery, at a lower price, may have to look elsewhere. But how long will people be willing to pay for an expensive Chevy? Reminds me of the situation with Nissan and its expensive Ariya.

Bit of a long shot, but could my good mastodon follower folk give me some boosts?

I'm starting work on a documentary podcast series about the future of space; renewable/sustainable technologies, commercialism in the sector and the public's perception of it all.

I'm hoping to connect with people who know space to complement my client's contacts, so any signal boosting would be appreciated!

Wealthy Americans and Wall Street are now profiting from the cost of the federal debt.

Instead of paying taxes to support the government, as they once did, they're lending it money and receiving a nice return.

It's a massive economic switcheroo that you should know about.

Randomly noting: if you're in the US, in April of 2024, the US will have a solar eclipse pass over a bunch of states for the first time in 7 years, and for the last time in *decades*.

It is an indescribably wonderful experience to be in the zone of totality. This article kinda covers it:. If you're not sure if you've seen one, you haven't. It's the most bizarre thing where it feels like someone flips a light switch and turns off the sky. space.com/37791-go-see-the-sol

If you knew someone looking for:
- an ops-y SRE role
- or an eng job that would take someone switching from ops-y SRE

And they hadn’t really worked with k8s yet (but have with other orchestrators across a mix of large scale onprem and cloud), where would you tell them to look?

I gave up over a 150,000 followers on Twitter to be on Mastodon full time. Yes, the engagement and reach is a lot less, but I'll build it back up and it will be worth it. I hate to see people run back to Twitter because of friends or careers or whatever. You know what changes that? Being on Mastodon and bring those people here. Musk is a horrible person, don't be one of his enablers.

If you happen to be in #Lexington, #Kentucky, maybe for #Keeneland, go and try J. Render's Southern Table and Bar. Absolutely great BBQ, the ribs are fantastic. Locally owned and operated, and absolutely worthy of your support.

Have a West Sixth IPA with it.
