⏰ Only a week remaining with early-bird pricing for my annual three-day deep dive into #pytest with #Python Academy!
📅 March 4th — 6th
🌍 Leipzig (Germany) or remote
📕 Three days of pytest knowledge from one of its core maintainers. Fixtures, mocking, plugins, …
python-academy.com/courses/pyt…
🎉 In related news: My "pytest tips and tricks" 1.5h training for #PyConDE was accepted, and I also submitted that plus a more beginner-focused pytest training for #Europython!
There is one feature of #LocusMap that I really like: you can take a picture of a map, calibrate it with the standard map and then have it as an overlay.
Very handy when you take the kids to the zoo or amusement park. 👌

'"The driver framework was in 6.13, but now it's enabled and fully working properly. Should make many #SteamOS users happy."'

The following is an unsolicited plug.
I just want to say how much I enjoy the hell out of my Ableton Move. I got one on day one.
Currently, I'm in a position wherein I don't have access to 99.9% of my musical instruments and related gear. I have very little space to work with. This situation is unlikely to change in the near term.
Meanwhile, my hearing continues to deteriorate, and I feel like I am running out of time before I can't do anything musically, so, despite stupid conditions, I need to take advantage of things while I still can.
What's so amazing about the Move, though?
Lots of folks see it and say "ah, it's another groovebox with lots of limitations."
Or, for those in the no, they might say something like "Wait, isn't that just a slightly more limited hardware version of Ableton Note for iOS?"
Well, yes, it is all of those things, but what truly sets the Move apart is it's (currently undocumented) screen reader.
Yes, that's right, it's a nearly completely accessible groovebox that, when combined with a modern web browser, speaks almost every button press and turn of it's knobs in real time. No more counting clicks, memorizing menus, all that stuff that we as blind musicians got so used to. It's a real game changer for me as a totally blind musician.
Ableton really went big into accessibility with Ableton Live, Note for iOS, and now the Move. I'm sure this trend will continue with up-coming versions of both hardware and software.
I have yet to play with any of their stuff beyond Note and Move, but I fully intend on giving Ableton Live a try at some point, and I'd love to see an accessible Push one day.
The accessibility they have now in Move isn't perfect, but they are aware of the current issues, and it's an absolutely fantastic first release. There are only a few things that don't read. Currently, the biggest hurtle is getting the device connected to your WiFi network so you can point a browser at it without tethering via USB C. The first time I set mine up, I did this with sighted help, but I was able to manage it, very slowly and kind of painfully, by using Envision's short text feature, not even the AI stuff. Hopefully, this will be addressed in future releases. This device runs Linux on a Raspberry PI CM4, and I fully intend on looking to see what they're doing for their network management stuff, and I'd love to help them make this more accessible if they'll let me. I'm not a Linux expert by any means, but I have a few ideas of how this could be implemented, potentially.
Seriously though, inclusive design combined with an already intuitive UI makes for a great experience.
I can say, without any doubt, that I've had the most fun in years making music with this thing, it's four tracks and all kinds of limitations included. It makes you think about things very much outside the box, and I'm absolutely hear for it.
Let's give a big shout-out to inclusive design. Make your products more accessible, and you'll get a whole new user base, increased loyalty, and free advertisement.
Ableton didn't bolt on their accessibility when it came to the Move. It was built with it in mind from the ground up.
Want to learn more about the Move's screen reader function, and a basic, practical demonstration of it's use? Check out @Onj's Youtube video here, which he made when Move was first available for sale in October.

tl;dr, that how corporations abide to fascists. What's next?
In posts on X on Monday, Google said it will follow the government's lead in changing the names on its Maps app.Jennifer Elias (CNBC)
Always did, because large corporations don't get to be that way without the subtle effects of authoritarianism and money focus that fascist tendencies tend to carry.
It's a mistake to think this is anything new, and the previous government was also displaying *different* tendencies that fascists also tend to display.
Both need resistance.
If there is some exception to this, it's the proverbial one that proves the rule!
Lmao. Capitalism ist the most batshit insane psycho shit ever created. Fuck Google and every living soul who is a part of it, mfers!
Everybody working for Google is evil. Everybody working for Google is now a fascist fucking clown.
Google and every other Silicon Valley fucking compnay has to be destroyed and dismantled and we have to throw everybody involved in a dark cell for the rest of their miserable lifes.

I'm still getting my head around this Mastodon thing, (my last post was 2 years ago)...my millennial brain seems to only compute with Instagram and Facebook marketplace at best - but I'm keen to share my work here as it seems like a welcoming space.
I make things - mostly freehand machine embroidery pieces. I'm fascinated by lichen-like forms - nature's ability to hold and transform is humbling in these current times.

Bingo. And that's why the #ProCraft movement needs to fight this dangerous technology with everything we've got.
