Our ball python is such a fearless predator. They got spooked by my finger.
Life is too short to spend it being mad on we-pretend-being-better-than-twitter (fedi)
I am the founder of KomoDo, the todo.txt app.
Sounds absolutely ridiculous but maybe I should do that since others do too.
"Your honor, Billy here sent a message to a newspaper that says awful things."
"Off with their heads!"
"Your honor, it seems that Billy shared name with other Billy and the Billy we executed was innocent."
And this is why procedures exist to verify claims. This is why potential evidence is not shared in public, to avoid potential fuckups.
I can't believe I need to even share this.
I'm sure someone gets mad at this too.
i still cant believe im a champion of a goal now
Finally back home.
I have had good time at Akademy, thanks for the great event to the organizers. Lovely kommunity full of lovely kPeople.
My life has changed significantly to the better due to contributing to KDE software. I have learned many things, but the most important thing I keep learning is socializing: Talking to fellow nerds, having a laugh, commiserating about things..
Diverse bunch of folk with diverse opinions aligned towards same goals.
See you all next year! I will write a blogpost when I can.
All I am really asking is for is patience.
Akademy be like

Cheers @andybalaam , well said. Love you too.
I'm worried people will find my qt widgets implementation for union really terrible and get angry about it.
I have tried my best. I cant stop thinking about it.. There are many bugs left but i am committed to fix them.
Im afraid i have hit many states of burnout already but i really want this to work out.
Sorry if i let anyone down.

Huge MR, since a lot of things had to be sort of done from scratch. There are many bugs, and likely many edgecases to uncover. Time to fix those next!
Very happy #sourcehut user right now.

Yeah sure we're left behind, capitalism, whatever.
But this signals sourcehut is for human software and for people who care about the process as much as the end result. That makes me happy, as that helps keep software maintainable.
