@drdrang the concept some people spitting words to the internet have about “failing” is quite interesting. I too find this failing platform a wonderful place.
At the rural school district I last worked at, we had 1500 students, of whom 1,000 were free lunch and 500 were not. The cost of personnel (an entire department!), computers, and software for vetting students to make sure those 500 didn't get free lunch cost more than the cost of simply feeding them, already.
The GOP jihad about preventing those 500 from getting free lunch is not about taxes or expense, it's about being mean to children. #gop #antichild #school #lunch #meanness
Damnit! These signs keep ruining my weekend plans!

Welcome, Stitcher users!
I started Overcast ten years ago in large part because I was afraid of Stitcher taking over the market with its proprietary walled garden (which was even more walled at the time, and was gaining significant traction).
I wanted to ensure that the open world of podcasting survived and thrived, even when faced with strong proprietary threats.
The names and players have changed since then, and the battle continues, but open podcasting remains dominant and healthy today.

As part of a wave of layoffs, I got laid off from my backend development job last month as the company's financials I was working with have been steadily decreasing. I applied for another job shortly after, and after a month of interviews and an honestly great response from their team, at the last minute, they told me that they were focusing their hiring efforts away from the US and towards Singapore. With Calckey donations, I don't have enough money to pay for rent or groceries. So I'm asking to #GetFediHired, I'm the lead developer on the Calckey project, and I'm a fullstack, multi-language developer. I have 3+ years of enterprise experience, and I work great on teams as well as solo. Resume and references available upon request.
@agiletortoise I read that they removed all API access except for Blue subscribers. Not sure if it’s true, but I’ve seen dozens of people reporting losing access to the API as of today.
I found an excuse to write about Tears of the Kingdom on @macstories 😄
If you're playing the game and taking notes, you have to try the TotK Travel Guide app by @jeffreykuiken. Great UI inspired by Apple Maps with a built-in note-taking system for locations in the game. Syncs with iCloud, has a single $4 In-App Purchase, and it supports the 3 different maps of the game. I love this.

@foodnoms for me it was the difference between recipes and meals. Now I see it more clear, as a recipe would be for example a fried rice (includes several ingredients, but it’s a single dish), and a meal will be my breakfast (a glass of milk, a piece of fruit, a pastry), but back when I started using the app it kept me confused for a while.
Hello @FediGarden @fediversereport @feditips would you help announcing a new (maybe the first one) #kbin instance in #Spanish https://kbin.fedi.cr/

@CorioPsicologia totalmente. Me encanta que mantenga la dinámica abierta del anterior, y la historia sigue más o menos un camino similar (templos, misiones con cada una de las razas, etc) pero en este te permiten hacer casi cualquier cosa. Y cuando te armas con un buen cargamento de cápsulas portátiles de esas puedes resolver todo de mil maneras.
My new app, TotK Travel Guide is finally available on the App Store! There are two ways to pitch this. It's a spoiler free companion app to use while playing Tears of the Kingdom. Look up interesting locations, add pins to the map, and keep notes, all in 1 app.
The other way to pitch this is: it's Apple Maps, but for #TotK 😄
It's free with a single optional IAP to unlock all features.
I hope you like it!
@jeffreykuiken loved the AC travel guide and then Noir, so this is an insta-download for me. Thanks a lot!
