I can confirm first hand that working with Jenn is a delight. Do not miss out on this. She’ll help find your voice in a cacophony of slop.

@mattly that sounds a lot better than before?

@mattly ohey this is fantastic!

@mattly what’s your cache folder size now?

Homebrew dropping prebuilt binary support for x86 is not great. Give it another year fellas.

@mattly ew, sorry :(

@mattly right, there is some re-caching, but should not be 400Gb. Please let me know if I am wrong on this!

@mattly you don’t need all that cache. I purge it regularly.

Ssh, nobody tell grubes that the EU uses ISO paper sizes.

The speed at which Debian is going from “we maybe okay with a little AI, even though our poll showed plenty of opposition” to “here’s free AI infra for all contributors to use” is giving me nausea.

@mattly *chrchrchr*

@cczona not a fan, rounded corners where there’s no need to.

@annika sun & wind need to keep up with inflation, too!

This is why I don’t shut up about this. If the whole extent of this would be generally known, there’d be riots.

Hey all, I have a big favour to ask.

At the beginning of the week, a large client that we had 100% expected to get started with a large project this month has dropped out at the most inconvenient time for us.

My team at @neighbourhoodie and I are looking for any and all projects we might be able to help with, the sooner the better.

We are really good at turning manual and/or analogue processes into digital ones, especially, but not limited to, if parts of the process need to work while a person or device is offline.

We have proven this repeatedly by making substantial contributions to fighting a Ebola epidemic, testing the first ever Ebola vaccine and distributing the very first COVID vaccinations to all eligible Bavarians.

We are also really good at taking your prototypes and turn them into real-life, secure, reliable, fast and scalable systems that you can bet your company on for years. From UX to SRE, we got you covered.

You need a frontend for a backend service you’ve built, we got you. You need a backend for a mobile app or game you’ve built, we got you.

We also excel at designing, building and debugging distributed database systems of all sizes and shapes. If you sync your photos with tools from the large red brick company, we helped with that.

We can help migrate your infrastructures from US clouds to EU hosters (within reason). Wanna move from GitHub to a self-hosted or managed Forgejo? Get in touch!

Additionally, in the past three years we helped 15+ FOSS projects from systemd, to GNOME, to PHP and PyPI, as well as Servo and Log4j with maintenance and security tasks in all sorts of programming languages and environments. We can help with yours, too.

We can also help join your team (remotely, CE[S]T) to augment any current projects you’re need accelerated.

I’m happy to answer any question you might have.

And I appreciate any leads and all boosts <3
