Now @andreabarisani.bsky.social about TamaGo here at @gopherconeu.bsky.social #gopherconEU #golang #embeddedGopher

It’s me, I’m in this slide.

Not trying to shill, but I actually learned a thing or two from this. #Go #GopherCon #GopherConEU

Let’s welcome Cedric Namkat for his talk on error tracing in #golang #gopherconEU

Great talk, and he handled the technical problems like a professional!

I don't want a city on Mars. I don't want AI in everything. I want to repost meme text with an image made by chatgpt to trick you into subscribing to my content farm. And bees, or whatever.

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software. Just fuck you. Fuck you all. I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

Cannot imagine what would be so attractive about technology made in an era before everything was so aggressively abusive and predatory and pre-broken to people who have never known anything else

In Mongolia, learned how The Software Engineer’s Guidebook ended up being translated to Mongolian: This engineer (Suiribaatar) bought the English version, liked it, and suggested to his company (Nasha Tech) to translate it. The company did it. You can just do things.

God my absolute heart is with the people of Iran, who’ve fought so steadfastly for their own liberation, and are getting fucked half a dozen ways by a whole pantheon of geriatric war criminals while being told they should be grateful for it

My only working explanatory hypothesis right now is that billionaires and authoritarians *Literally* thrive on human misery; that if people aren't suffering then all their money and power don't actually sustain them, and that cruelty & sheer horror are the only things that flow through their veins.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

Filling in standard psychiatric questionnaires at this point in history is absolutely wild. “Do you ever feel hopeless?” Who doesn’t? And never in a million years I thought I’d have to list “war”, “genocide”, and “climate change” in my top 5 anxieties.

For the Love of #Golang: How to Contribute, Really By Arati Rani from @grafana.bsky.social #gopherconEU

Speakers vs. Audience Where the speakers are asking questions about their #golang talks and the audience has to answer! #gopherconEU

Use Signal. We promise, no AI clutter, and no surveillance ads, whatever the rest of the industry does. <3

@gopherconeu.bsky.social teaching us what not to do in Go 😂

People think that they are judging someone on „merit“ or „performance“ but if you aren’t even considering all the contributing factors that may affect your judgement (i.e. everything that is different and everything that is similar between the other person and you), you are not judging on „merit“.

Talk to people irl, even smart people, and you'll quickly find that the vast majority do not know that AI makes things up, or plagiarizes, or destroys the environment. Knowing the things about AI we take as given here is like knowing internet memes; people who aren't Very Online tend to have no clue

Silence Is Complicity Straighten your spine Speak & live your truth

Tempted to get one of those “clean beauty” apps, just to find out which products _do_ have parabens.

Last call! Do you want to work with me? Do you want to work in #Go (#golang), creating performant services? Do you want to work with some of the best engineers I know? #Ecosia is #hiring #backend #developer (mid level, but we'll also take advanced juniors, shhhh). jobs.ashbyhq.com/ecosia.org/b...

I've cossed more international borders than most, been through checkpoints and searches and have trained human rights activists, journalists and others in staying safe in repressive regimes. In the past few days I've provided some friends with travel advice for no particular reason; here's a thread:

Finally one good piece on news coming from the USA.

I had a dream I was dating Lt. Cmdr. Data. I’ve fully caught the Trek brain rot and I’m not apologising 😭❤️.

Ollie petting simulator fall 2024 update is out

I saw someone doing a final on TV and it gave major anxiety. 10/10 I do not have any trauma from university /s

bodies requiring maintenance is such bullshit

This was shared by an awesome coworker, and I found it great.

He’s right, you know.

*shooting a CEO with a harpoon gun* it’s sad but necessary. If we don’t keep their population in check they’ll destroy the environment

Just walking around carrying my 2 kilos of vegan panettone.

I have to go back to work on Wednesday after a month off sick leave. I am not ready 😬. But i guess the longer i take to come back, the harder it will be.

Twitter has decided to leave the EU's disinformation code, a voluntary pact that groups together the major social platforms where they agree not to spread disinformation. Just in time for 2024’s global collection of elections, in the US, UK, the EU, Ukraine, Russia, India, Mexico and Taiwan.

I'm just here, posting my proof of identity, by means of Finn.
