How Educational Inequities Are Further Tearing Apart the Country

The inequities of our school system make a mockery of the gauzy rhetoric of the American Dream. #Education #CriticalRaceTheory

so because Im fairly new on this instance I thought I`ll finally write an #introduction toot.

I am Florian, a german #physics master #student working in the field of #quantum #optics. i did some programming in the past as a hobby, now mostly just #python for studying.

Some other interests are:
#gaming
#gamedev
#godot
#fitness
#opensource
#linux
#science
#math
#quantuminformation
#quantumcomputing

Some more progress has been made on my ESP32 WiFi based location tracker. The ESP32 connects to every open WiFi network it finds, it then makes a DNS request to my DNS server with the BSSID. A python script on the DNS server then uses the Wigle.net API to plot the locations on a map.

@RaphaelWimmer @thc you might also like https://sadservers.com/ - you get tossed into a shell of a malfunctioning server and need to figure out the problem.

More #AIArt of people who don't exist. #xp

Cool new feature allowing you to follow hashtags in your home timeline.

A word of warning after I followed #python.

My TL went from a manageable few posts an hour to (at least) quadrupling. It made the 5 AM morning scroll really tedious today. So I'll just go back to manually browsing it.

Be careful what hashtags you follow. 😆
But still a really cool feature of Mastodon.

I guess I never did an #introduction, and now that there's more folks around here, it must be time.

I'm Leo! I do #Linux things all the time, and try to use as much #OpenSource and #FOSS software as possible. I dig #history, especially #technology history, so much that I do a #video #podcast every fortnight at @linuxuserspace

I've been meaning to dig more into doing some #education - type videos, and maybe do a little more blogging, but the history wormhole is a very strong one.

Is it possible that my code was so bad that it broke leetcode.com?
