Hello. I’m pretty quiet on here, but I would like to connect with other people in the Wilson’s Disease community. A hashtag yielded nothing, so I’m starting it here. If you see this, please amplify. #WilsonsDisease #raredisease #rarediseases #rarediseaseadvocate #livertransplant #liverdisease #wilsondisease

Does anyone on here work on the Twitter API or know someone? Because it looks like with recent Twitter API changes, @ProPublica can't track deleted tweets from politicians anymore w/ Politwoops (projects.propublica.org/politwoops/).

The API we used for years has been deprecated, and the v2 API simply...does not seem to report deletions correctly. The new method to ingest tweets also seems very limited. And I'm not sure we actually understand what the paid model would be!

Just a thought: what if we stopped measuring the economy by the state of the stock market and started measuring it based on how many people are housed and clothed and fed?

So is someone going to sue Kevin McCarthy and Fox News for this deal to hand over all the Capitol security footage from Jan. 6 to (checks notes) Tucker Carlson exclusively? How is that even remotely legal? @aclu

I feel a personal moral responsibility to serve the needs of the users of software I create.

I am tasked with creating tools to help them solve problems they have.

That's my job. I have done it for 25 years, and I am pretty good at it.

The technology stacks have moved around, but the job hasn't changed.

Hi #ADHD people, do you know of any tool that would make a sound at chosen times of the day? Like a phone alarm but without requiring me to go turn if off, and also that would respect it if I put my phone in silent mode.

I'm looking for something that I could hear from another room and realize "it's time to change task". I used to have a cron job making my computer tell me, but currently I'm without computer so I'm looking more into android apps. Didn't find anything working yet!

Sure, after his presidency, Jimmy Carter could have just retired to a country club, put out petty diatribes insulting his "enemies," and played lots of golf. Instead, he decided to help build living spaces for people who needed them. He talked the talk and then walked the walk.

This is what it looks like to lead by example.

This is Mastodon and this is why it rocks!

For *years* I’ve thought that the design of the battery doors on my coin cell powered bike widgets was crappy — you either need a giant flathead screwdriver or a coin to open them.

Today I realised… YOU USE THE BATTERY!

Today is the Day of Remembrance for the Japanese American community. 81 years ago today, when I was just a boy of four, FDR signed Executive Order 9066, setting in motion the evacuation of people of Japanese descent from the West Coast and our long years of internment inside ten barbed wire prison camps.

We must never let such a thing happen again in America, and and we must strive everywhere to prevent the forced relocation and mass incarceration of innocent people. #NeverForget #NeverAgain

Given all the crazy happening on Twitter this morning, where Elon is shutting down free SMS Two Factor Authentification, putting it behind a paywall, it seems like a good time to post this:

This server and all Mastodon servers have built-in Two-Factor for free - and we strongly encourage everyone to enable this. Here is how.

Every now and then I hear about some useful resources that could help me a lot, but which I cannot access because they are on Instagram or Facebook.

Please please please if you are doing anything that qualifies as “public service”, please don't limit your reach to walled gardens only, please do it in at least one openly accessible place too

Do you like Mastodon's default user interface? Why? Why not?

Boosts for reach appreciated.

Hello Fediverse 😀

Hey there. You are doing a good job.

It’s easy to beat ourselves up and worry all the time about what other people are doing, or what they think of us.

Slow down. Let things come. You have what you need.
