For our (small) master dissertation about #education (but mostly because we are interested), we are doing research about using #OpenStreetMap within #secondary education (roughly 12 - 18 years old, but with a focus on 16 - 18 years old).

The long-term goal is to create a usable #lesson where pupils go out and map using a data collection app. If you have any experience with this, would you be so kind to spend 10 minutes of your time to fill out the survey?

Donald Knuth on the rewards of computer programming

Computer programs are fun to write, and well-written computer programs are fun to read. One of life's greatest pleasures can be the composition of a computer program that you know will be a pleasure for other people to read, and for yourself to read.

Computer programs can also do useful work. One of life's greatest sources of satisfaction is the knowledge that something you have created is contributing to the progress or welfare of society.

Some people even get paid for writing computer programs! Programming can therefore be triply rewarding on aesthetic, humanitarian, and economic grounds.

If I am ever going to translate "Deutsche Sagen" ("German Legends") by the Brothers Grimm, I will probably have to re-learn #Latin - they used too many Latin-language sources for this work.

I suppose my Latin teachers from back in school will have had the last laugh then after all.

Classical Chinese (or more anal retentively Literary Chinese) is a really difficult language for a variety of reasons.

1. It is essentially a written-only form of language. It uses the fact that two syllables with the same pronunciation but different meanings can be determined by looking at the character. In vernacular Chinese you can't do this. If you say "shu3" which one do you mean? So an extra disambiguating syllable is added like "lao3shu3" for "mouse".

Ja. Ihr habt recht, der #CarolaBrücke Livestream des #MDR ist so ziemlich das Unterhaltsamste was der Sender in den letzten Jahren gemacht hat.
Allerdings ist die Auflösung leider nicht so pralle, dass ich das neue Graffito auf der Brücke lesen kann. Daher…

Hey #Dresden, was steht auf der CarolaBrücke?

Edit: Da steht »Millionäre besteuern«.

Screenshot des Livestream des MDR von der CarolaBrücke in Dresden. Auf dem man die Elbe sieht und Teile der eingestürzten Brücke sowie im Vordergrund, einen Bauzaun unter dahinter Menschen, die sich für die CarolaBrücke interessieren. Auf einem der Teile der Carola Brücke ist undeutlich ein Graffiti zu erkennen. Dies habe ich rot eingekreist.

so apparently if a company goes to Slack and whines “our customers are able to communicate without our direct personal approval and we don’t like it”, Slack will say “you’re so right king” and assign that company exclusive admin control of a user community without asking or even warning the community? hachyderm.io/@binford2k/113307…

GoToSocial version 0.17.0 release announcement, our first Beta release

Sensitive content

Hello fellow creatures!

We've finally bitten the bullet and cut version 0.17.0 of #GoToSocial, aka Selective Sloth 🎆

github.com/superseriousbusines…

As always, please read the release notes very carefully when updating, take a database backup, and don't interrupt database migrations no matter how tempted you might be to press ctrl-c. It's not wurf it mate!

Beta release announcement

This is the very first BETA RELEASE of GoToSocial. What does it mean that we're leaving alpha and entering beta? Not much really. It had to happen eventually, and now is as good a time as any to go from "people shouldn't really use this software" to "people can consider using this software but be warned it's not done yet, lots of stuff is missing, yadda yadda". Don't read too much into it!

Release highlights

Interaction policies: This release gives you the ability to set interaction policies on your statuses using the settings panel. Interaction policies let you determine who can reply to, like, or boost your statuses. You can accept or reject interactions as you wish; accepted replies will be added to your replies collection, and unwanted replies will be dropped. This feature is still a work-in-progress as we will almost certainly have some kinks to work out in terms of implementation etc, but we wanted to get it into people's hands as quickly as possible.
User docs here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
Federation docs here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
Much wider range of support for different media types: In this release we've embedded a webassembly build of ffmpeg into the GoToSocial binary, so that users can post many different types of media than previously, including mp3, flac, and other audio types, and many more video types. Admins: you don't need to have ffmpeg installed on your server for this to work.
Audio player: to complement the new media types, we adapted our current video player to also play audio, so people visiting your profile can play MP3s and FLACs. Album art is supported when embedded in the audio file!
Header/avatar alt text: You can now set alt-text for your avatar + header images, so that screenreader users visiting your profile can read a description of your beautiful face.
Better threading model for statuses: On the web view of a thread, conversations are now indented at different levels, to make it easier to see who's replying to whom.
Prefers-reduced-motion is now supported, so that folks with animations turned off in their operating system or browser aren't confronted with lots of animation when they open your profile.
Conversations view: You can now view a list of your direct message conversations, making it much easier to keep track of who you're talking to.
Import/export csv files: It's now possible to import Mastodon-compatible CSV files for accounts you follow and accounts you block, making it much easier to migrate across instances. Export of these files is supported too.
Exclusive lists: You can now mark lists as "exclusive", which means that posts from accounts in an exclusive list will show up only in that list and not in your home timeline.
Show/hide posts on your profile: Previously only Public posts were shown on your web profile. This is still the default, but you can now choose to show unlisted posts on your web profile too (the Mastodon default), or to show no posts at all.
Lots of new themes: solarized, brutalist, ecks pee, and more (see screenshots).
Store worker queue on restart: when you stop the instance, pending tasks are stored into the database, and loaded again when you start up the instance, so that no tasks get lost between restarts.

Supported platforms

We've defined a list of platforms + architectures that we "officially" support and those we partially or don't support due to performance reasons or library constraints, you can check this out right here: github.com/superseriousbusines… If your platform of choice isn't on the list you can, of course, try building yourself, and maybe try the very experimental nowasm tag we recently added, if you're feeling daring: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…

Thanks

Thanks for reading and for your continued support for this silly sloth!

Screenshot of the "Ecks Pee" theme. Predominantly blue with green and orange trim, reminiscent of a certain operating system.

Screenshot of the "Moonlight Hunt" theme. Ominous red and dark blue with bright red and silvery trim.

Screenshot of the "Rainforest" theme. Mellow greens and blues.

Screenshot of the "Solarized Light" theme. Beige with monospaced font.

Dutch cartoonist Ruben L. Oppenheimer today in newspaper NRC: Trump's bible.

Small orange hands on a book, maybe a bible. One hand moves a finger along the lines to read what it says.
Chapter 1
1 In the beginning, Trump created the heavens and the earth; big, beautiful earth. It was the biggest earth anybody had ever seen in the history of creation. Incredible. I call it: paradise. And Kamala was allowing millions and millions of people to come into our paradise. So sad!
2 But the earth was without form, and void; total disaster. By the way all Biden's fault. Worst God ever. And darkness was upon the face of the deep. We're doing great in the deep by the way. And the Spirit of Trump moved upon the face of the waters bigly. Strong waters, the best waters.
3 And Trump said, Let there be light, tremendous light: and there was light, the greatest light. Everybody says so.
4 And the light came from China! And Trump saw that the light was good; because it was cheap.

How Do You Pronounce “DBussy”?
==============================

The name is a pun on “dbus” and the name of French Impressionist
composer Claude Debussy. The most natural way to pronounce it would be
the same as his name. At least, that’s my story, and I’m sticking to
it.

The sky was thick solid clouds stretching from the horizon in the east to just above the horizon in the west. I wondered if that little gap above the horizon in the west would be enough for an interesting sunset. We waited 35 minutes for sunset and it was worth it.
#sunset #montreal

A stunning sunset with a bright yellow orb sitting on the horizon, making the sky all around it bright yellow, then blending into orange. In the foreground are train tracks and train cars that are reflecting the golden sun, and on the horizon is the Montreal skyline.
