It's been a while since I hacked on #Convene, but @internetross put in some great work tidying the issues list.

I made a little progress on instrumenting a `TypeError: Load failed` exception that is coming through in production: https://github.com/zinc-collective/convene/issues/2705

And then I wrote down my theory for why a `PG:ForeignKeyViolation` error keeps getting thrown when #Piikup tries to remove a Marketplace: https://github.com/zinc-collective/convene/issues/2704

#DevLog #Rails #CoopSource #OpenSource #FoodJustice #EastBay

TypeError: Load failed · Issue #2705 · zinc-collective/convene

Sentry Issue: CONVENE-38 TypeError: Load failed WIP Capture console errors in Sentry so when this happens again we can debug / diagnose it.

Part of what we're trying to do here is model holding a "featherweight" digital services cooperative that provides economically measurable benefits to local communities.

Right now, we're focusing on supporting a Black woman owned worker-forward point-to-point logistics company, #Piikup.

The challenge is keeping things "featherweight" for the developers + support volunteers while still being tangibly economically beneficial.

Hey #EastBay #SFBA Folks!

My little tech worker coop is working with #Piikup an #Oakland based delivery and logistics organization that provides door-to-door grocery, meal, and catering delivery services for a number of local restaurants and caterers.

Piikup is working towards a just transition from the #DoorDash, #EZCater, #TryCaviar, or #UberEats all of which aggressively squeeze food service and delivery workers.

If we can get 10 people ordering a plate once a month, that will help us work out the logistical and technological kinks. If you can afford to drop $15~$25/plate once a month on a delicious, healthy meal delivered to your door by workers who care about quality and community; please email [email protected] with your city and neighborhood and we'll let you know when we're ready to run our real test!
