Huh. @techcrunch.com's Disrupt doesn't seem to have an official hashtag? Weird.

(I’ve also looked at adding the UK and Australia)

All this data is searchable and linkable. We’ve got 800 municipalities so far, and I’m happy to add literally any that you or your cohosts want.

Hello @postoctobrist.bsky.social long time listener first time poster.

I do a thing that’s relevant to at least two of your podcasts and the more I listen to @nogodsnomayors.com the more I need to share:

civic.band is the largest collection of municipal meeting data for the US and Canada.

CivicBand: Government and Municipality Meeting Data

Dive into City Meeting Data Across the U.S.

Inspired by a chat with @bajoran.engineer at #PyTorchCon, I wrote up my thoughts about #Python as a scripting engine for apps.

phildini.dev/python-in-ev...

Shares appreciated, commentary welcome but if you're a jerk I'll block you 😇

Maybe of interest to @anacondainc.bsky.social as well ✨

Python should be in every application - phildini.dev

The best in-app scripting engine is within reach

I keep getting Google news notifications saying that federal agents have been deployed to SF, but then when I click it, I get an AI summary saying that they haven't been deployed 🙃

We truly live in a dark ages

was talking to a bookstore proprietor today about a cool book they liked because the art has an almost 3d effect

mused that "it's almost like riso printing with these blue outlines"

"... wait"

reader, can you guess why it looked so much like risograph printing?

I'm hearing reports that the pre-meeting memo for the ongoing incident at #AWS is just pages from the Necronomicon, can anyone confirm?

Do you know the people working on this? I’d love to chat with them about what we’re doing at @civic.band and see if there are collaboration opportunities

So... @civic.band runs on no AWS anywhere in the stack and is still absolutely fine.

Major #hugops to @signal.org and the rest of the internet though ❤️

One of my favorite standby tabletop themes just got spicier, because I hadn't previously realized that a chunk of AWS having an outage that likely takes out your primary and backup comms could also get Signal... and do your employees still keep each other's actual phone numbers offline? #hugops
