Really like @michael's rules for writing software tutorials. A few simple, fairly common-sense rules to follow.

📝 Ribbon - a linkding client #Development #Ios #Linkding
I built a native iOS client for linkding and launched it, as I usually do, with a sarcastic-ish Mastodon post. I'd been using my instance as a PWA (inasmuch as PWAs are supported on iOS) and found it to be ok but not terribly satisfying. I appreciated the existing clients, but didn't love them. I'd tried them all, but ended up generally using a Safari extension and the web...

Hi, I'm Sean.
I'm from the oldest incorporated city in so-called #canada, #SaintJohn - home of the #irving empire.
I am an iconoclast - staunchly #antifascist, #antiracist, #anticapitalist, somewhere on the #autism spectrum, and 3 years into punishing #LongCovid. #WearAMask!!!
I've worked the last decade as #HeadOfSound at a beautiful heritage #theatre. Before that I was in #tech for a decade doing #development and #reverseEngineering. I've also worked in #electronics and other #audio fields.
I grew up in a musical family and have played in bands since 13. I'm on around 60 albums, have toured canada and the us, and am part of what is likely the most prolific band in canada: #Slugmilk.
I run a home mixing studio and a small printshop and I have a small "datacentre" which #selfhosts this #mastodon instance.
I'm here on the #fedi to learn from everyone, and to help others learn. I will help anyone with anything I can.
I'd love to meet more like-minded friends - don't be shy!

Did lead (#Pb) limit #brain and #language #development in #Neanderthals
and other extinct hominids?
Ancient human relatives were exposed to lead up to two million years ago, according to a new study. However, a #gene #mutation may have protected modern human brains, allowing language to flourish.
Developer friends. I’m installing Linux on my old MacBook. What editor do you recommend?
I’m going to port my macOS accessibility app, Ratio, to Linux. I want to get it right, so I’m gonna build it there instead of on my MacBook.
Edit: I currently use Nova. I’m also a designer so I love a pretty GUI. But I’m very comfortable with CLI.

>>> Reflections on the impact of digital infrastructure and racism in traditional communities
"After 29 versions of agreements and negotiations far from the planet’s greatest tropical socio-biodiversity, this conference must be broad and unrestricted, analysing all inequalities imposed since the earliest colonisation, still persistently referred to as “development”.

📝 Owning your data #Development #Webdev #Tech #SocialMedia
Owning your own data is hard. I've been trying to own as much as I can, and my site has become a reflection of that process, both in what I display and discuss. As difficult as it is, there's a freedom in owning as much as you can.
I urge all developers of #Android apps to NOT pre-emptively obey the new terms of #Google requiring you to sign up for the Android Developer Console.
It looks like Google is attempting a power grab and wants to prevent ALL installations of Android apps without official Google approval; even those installed outside Google Play.
This is an attack on both developer and user freedom and unacceptable.

A Quick Development Update
Some of the work that’s been going on behind the scenes to make the GNU Image Manipulation Program even better.
New release of Mastodon Bots (ActivityPub Mastodon-copmpatible bot instance that is probably the quickest to spin up a new Fediverse content bot under 20 seconds):

A dear friend of mine and one of the people if not THE person who made me vegan, @Arseni, launched a new website regarding veganism. It explains what veganism is and tackles lots of questions and issues, all through archived Instagram posts he's downloading and posting on the website. It's really educational for vegans and non-vegans. Since lots of people (rightfully) avoid Instagram and Meta services in general (Particularly those on the fediverse.), this is a great way to share informational posts without going to any of those services. Neither of us are earning any money from this, by the way (Closest thing is him having a button to donate on the website, but the website isn't earning money.).
Here's the website (Note that it just launched, like, a week ago, so it has a way to go!):
https://end-animal-use.com
And on his website is also another cool website he's linked to, https://understand-veganism.com , which tackles what veganism is, some misconceptions and topics around it. It's not run by Arseni, but it's good, for vegans and non-vegans, too!
Love you, Arseni!
