Is open source inclusive? 2019's Pride month is nearly over and we wanted to contribute to the discussion. @ClauCambra has written about acceptance, strife, and progress in the LGBTIQ+ and open source communities. codethink.co.uk/articles/201โ€ฆ #opensource #pridemonth #software

I also think we may not last much longer, or at least be about to suffer a significant setback, because our civilisation is currently run by a bunch of shit heads.

"Is your energy supply sustainable?" the advert asked. I checked my energy meter. 57% Spite 35% Anger 7% Curiosity 1% Compassion Renewable, certainly. And it got me through the day. But was it sustainable? I clicked the ad.

Phew. 1h40m of online meetings later and I'm done with my #rustlang meetings for the night. While I actually enjoy this kind of thing, I understand why others might not. This is one reason I'm pleased to be doing my part for Rust so others can just enjoy using it.

This Ferris was a gift from my Rust learners group here @codethink -- A really nice and unexpected gesture from @chris_polin @jeeeunevans et al. Thanks everyone.

Specific shoutouts go to @j2h @bcardiff and @grhmc for being super-interesting to talk with, and super-helpful. Also to @popey for looking after me so well, and being a fellow lover of cats. There are so many more of you I should call out, but I lack twitter handles for you all

Had an excellent time this week hosted by canonical at #snapcraftio this week. Met some excellent humans (our robots, not sure yet) and had very productive time and talks with @travisci and others.

Unofficial result for now. Official time later. Not bad for less than twenty four hours after a flight from Canada. Platt Fields #loveparkrun
