mastodon 4.7.2— OSS Engineer, Educator & Enthusiast —
I am a Django developer deep down, but an anarchic architect in practice.
To me, WASM & the federated web are the future.
— Aspiring Absurdist Author & Adamantly Anti-Authoritarian —
I often write about the intersection of technology and humanity.
To me, tech and philosophy are inseparable.

Been working on this all day. Hosted on @fedihost@mstdn.social (Canadian, no US dependencies), ready for anyone who wants a local community on the fediverse.
I'm going to be transferring my account there another day, for now I need sleep.
If you're in Ontario or connected to it, come say hi. And if you're running a Canadian instance, let's connect.
My initial response to the `Recursive Absurd` was a familiar one: surely we could engineer our way out - with better code, kinder patterns, more humane systems.
I was wrong.
The remedy isn’t cleaner loops - it’s refusing to become one.

My Django performance testing library now has an HTML dashboard with charts included!
`python manage.py mercury_test --html`
This runs ONLY monitored tests, and generates the dashboard to help visualize and pinpoint performance problems.

Stars are appreciated :)
I agree that having mastodon act as a proxy for an X account defeats the purpose and feels inauthentic. One would expect them to 'practice what they preach' to gain trust.

Nice! Yeah, watching her campaign made me wish I lived in BC with such leaders! Instead I'm here in conservative Ontario (sigh)
