As it happens this last couple of days I've attended student presentations. In one case the topic is "the language of science" where #students present projects about #science topics important for society. They come up with board games, scorebooks, youtube films, and more amazing stuff, trying to improve the world. Plus, this course is taught jointly between my university in Bordeaux and UF Santa Catarina, in Brazil, which is already awesome.
The other one is an advanced Genetics course at...1/2

Do you have any accounts on here you would recommend that are based in Asia, Africa or South America?

At the moment Fediverse is very much Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand.

Would be nice to get people from the rest of the world noticed on here!

New potatoes in November? Why not! Had a bag of spuds sprouted, shoved them in some grow bags and I have enough for a quick potato salad 🍠🥔🍠

Less than 20% of autistic adults are in full-time employment. Many of us drop out of the workforce after just a few years. Why is that?

Let's talk about Autistic Burnout!

@jaz Thank you! I'm using a filter for politics because I like to be able to decide whether I read it or not, depending on how I'm feeling. It's not that I'm not interested in politics but I don't want political arguments thrust upon me when what I want is a quiet conversation.

UPDATE:

libreboot.org temporarily offline. I've got.... half of the new routing working, on new internet! It's an L2TP tunnel service that I'm hosting it behind and I've got IPv6 working.

IPv4 is next. gotta configure IPv4 routes (static), and reconfigure DNS servers.

ETA for services coming back online: 28 November 2022 (today is the 27th).

Kinda doing everything in a rush. I'm always chaotic when moving servers. Old internet gets terminated tomorrow anyways.

I’ll be teaching a four-part series on The Business of Creative #Writing!

Classes include:
1) Creating a Writing Practice;
2) Submissions and Rejections;
3) Pitching for Publication;
4) Book #Publishing 101.

Take one or all four! All online and open to anyone anywhere in the world. Sign up now and use code EARLYBIRD for 20% off through Dec 8.

So by my view, using @mastodonusercount as a guide...

We are at 7.6 million accounts, and growing now by a steady 430,000 per week -- and if that continues on pace, at about 1.7 million new Mastodon users per month.

Feels like crossing 10 million by th new years day is entirely in the cards, just if things stay steady.

(And if Elon continues on pace - each crazy act causes a spike above average, so who knows?)›
