Your isolation is not accidental. It’s intentional.
A client of mine recently attended two international tech conferences and reached out to share his experience.
The first, he said, was “status quo white dudes and a handful of women.” The second, Mozilla Festival, felt completely different:

Got an email from Delta saying FAA cancellations for flights scheduled to travel between November 7-9 have already happened, so if you’re flying on those dates your flights are safe from cancellation, anyway. Your flight home, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah so they’re cutting flights at the 40 busiest airports starting with 4% on Friday and ramping up to 10% through the weekend, and that includes ATL. If you’re attending #KubeCon and you aren’t threat modeling around this and making contingency plans already, strongly recommend starting now
So, uh, KubeCon attendees: how we feeling about the threat model of them shutting down the airspace? Are we all moving to Atlanta

Please go rank Temporal, customizable selects, and anchor positioning at a minimum please!
As an experiment, we (the Firefox team) wanted to try a new way to get feedback on which Interop proposals matter most.
So, here's a web app where you can rank the proposals you care about, giving us data we can use when reviewing which ones to champion.

Mental health talk:
Yesterday evening, I ended up laying on the floor of my kitchen staring at the ceiling and crying because I could not bring myself to make food. I laid like this for around an hour.
If you look at me and go "Oh, Alex is all fun and games and comic sans" that's only a piece.
