The question shouldn't be "Why do Black folk see racism in everything?"
The question should be "Why do white folk not see any of this?"
The answer to the better question is of course, that there is an information delta between "what Black folk know about racism" and "what white folk know about racism."
Racist people don't want you to know any of this stuff. Because some people, on reading this stuff, say, "Sounds bad. We should maybe change things to be less bad?"
A first draft is done. Proposals for the #AgileTD ➙ https://agiletestingdays.com

Would you like to improve your programming skills online? I recommend trying exercism.io. It's free and you can get feedback from real humans (if you're in the #Ruby track, may be even from me 😀 ). #exercism

Weithin unbeachtet hält der Entwurf zur Reform der #EU-Richtlinie für Produkthaftung „#ProductLiabilityDirective“ (#PLD) möglicherweise üble Überraschungen für #OpenSource-Entwickler.innen bereit. Dort sind keinerlei Haftungsausnahmen für Open Source Software vorgesehen. Die entsprechenden Paragraphen in der #GPL (und so ziemlich jeder anderen Open Source-Lizenz) wären in Europa nichtig, Entwickler.innen haftbar für Schäden, auch ohne kommerziellen Background.
Super Start ins Wochenende: Wir sind #NeuHier!
Wir, das Alfred-Wegener-Institut, Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung, forschen in der Arktis, Antarktis, den deutschen Küstenregionen und den Ozeanen der mittleren und hohen Breiten.
Dazu nutzen wir unsere Stationen in den Polarregionen und stellen wichtige Infrastruktur wie den Eisbrecher Polarstern zur Verfügung, um Forschung auch in entlegenen Gebieten zu ermöglichen.
Folgt uns hier für Toots über die eisigen Regionen der Welt!

Seems to me that #Mastodon (& the other #Fediverse apps) represent a surprisingly sophisticated solution to a much more difficult technical & usability problem than what Twitter has attempted to address... & it was developed in half the time & with several orders of magnitude less resource (both people & money). It's a remarkable feat no matter how you look at it.
And, I need to add, much of its success is due to the concurrent development of #ActivityPub
"Mehr als 6 Milliarden Euro - #RWE übertrifft eigene Gewinnprognose"
Umweltkosten werden sozialisiert (€680/Tonne CO2, Quelle: UBA). Gewinne werden privatisiert und füllen die Konten der Vorstände.
Wann zahlt RWE für die #Klimaschäden?
I may have to take a few days off, later this year to, visit this 🤩: https://www.kunstmuseum.nl/en/exhibitions/escher-other-world
HA! I knew it. I am intelligenter that this … software I have to work with (or rather around). 🤣
First small win for the day & week.
A new blogpost: "Why I think We Can Do better Than asking ‘Why'" ➙ https://seasidetesting.com/2023/01/21/why-i-think-we-can-do-better-than-asking-why/
Thank you @johannarothman for your feedback!
I am a traveller (not necessarily in a geographical sense) who seeks, observes … & occasionally finds.
I am a programming software tester, studied physics, survived cancer & live at the seaside. I love the ocean and go swimming a lot – in winter, too.
