MEDLab @ UC Boulder is running an incubator compensating community builders with $3500 to learn how to build community on decentralized social apps like Bluesky and Mastodon. No prior technical experience is expected or required. Would apply myself but don't think I'm the target audience
Apply here by October 4Do the online communities and groups that you participate in use digital tools that truly serve your values? Do you want to break free

Ducked(!) out early from the #tidyverse#duckdb#rstats world will always have my heart, but the duck-theme ecosystem is very attractive! (Luckily there's no need to choose).
Can’t wait to see my old and new friends next week at #PositConf2024#TheCodingCats Etsy shop. Come find me for one! ☺️

raise your hand if a car has almost killed you while you were a pedestrian and not doing anything reckless
"In 2022, cars killed 7,508 pedestrians, the equivalent of 18 fully-loaded Boeing 747s crashing with zero survivors. That means a pedestrian died roughly every 70 minutes, with no breaks in the tide of fatalities for weekends or holidays."
With 7,500 pedestrian fatalities in America every year, we must consider the safety of people outside our cars.
