Still Ingressing (L11) - good to catch you here too @d3Xt3r
It’s an interesting crossover as an internet connected generation starts knitting. You see those yarn bombing militant knitters too. It has all the social and community things that happen online, but is physically creating things.
With fibre from I’m supporting my DW in her addictions and helping others be more awesome with their yarn addictions too, but the closest I can claim to knitting fame is I got a t-shirt (with the slogan “weapons of mass construction” on it) for attempting to knit backwards.
Today looking at what can be done in the next few weeks to progress a (on-site physical) project before I take 4 days leave for #fibretron helping with one of the vendors while keeping an eye on socials for a startup #nzpol party who need help growing from teenage memes to a real force of social unity in the fragment that is the minor (and yet to be) parties.
Fostering the dreams while paying the bills with reality.
When I lead the dev team we had a clear pipeline and delivered weekly - it was the initial stages but the mandate was to write all our own code starting from scratch - to make things work I pulled in a few frameworks to bootstrap ourselves into existence — ActvitiyPub for one was something that wasn’t a thing until me and my connect all the things and integrate with everyone mentality won out. It was very much UI first, front end heavy at the start so making it work and plumbing the skin was the fun to come.
After I left I did watch with interest the first network tests and the early demos - but when I left there wasn’t much more than a hello world in a blockchain test and some network messages in testing.
Things seemed to have slowed down after they got funded - but during the startup daze it was epic to have crypto architectural discussions with the likes of Bill Binney and we had a humming dev team with some great talent. Shoutout to those that left before me and those that got paid for their time — I’m still hanging out for the promise that it is. Someone has to make it better than a twitter clone.
