I haven't done a #Connection #Connections list for a while where I bring you interesting accounts from across the , so let's start Saturday morning with that - and #coffee of course.

There were some really interesting folx at #Monktoberfest this week judging by the comments on the hashtag, including my all time fave @phire. Jenny is a writer, a socio-technologist and someone I admire greatly. You should follow her. @ag_dubs has super interesting takes on #Opensource supply chains and you should follow them too. @eamon seems super interesting and is into #prometheus and #k8s. 👋

@asilata is into #maths, and loves #sourdough baking 👋

@huertanix is into press freedom and mechanical #keyboards (ohai from my KeyChron 8 mapped using keyd with glow in the dark keycaps) and #infosec 👋

@The0rangeMan is an organiser for #NoTechForApartheid 👋

@rubenerd is into #FreeBSD and #NetBSD 👋

@fenwick is a #Professor at #Concordia and author of Internet Daemons - which questions how much transparency and oversight we're handing over to autonomous agents. 👋

@miskaknapek is into information #vizualisation and has a really engaging website! 👋

@Andy_Tattersall is a #researcher and research trainer and did a thought-provoking post recently on which disciplines have moved from X/Twitter to other platforms 👋

That's all for today, hope you all have a great day and let's continue to build a more deeply connected --- if we want to --- social network ❤️

@KathyReid thank you very kindly for the generous mention Kathy!

i very much look forward to having a look at your other recommended folks.

@KathyReid

Thank you for connecting some really awesome sounding people together, including yourself! Looks like I work right around the corner from you (Hanna Neumann building), so perhaps we'll run into each other in person sometime as well. All the best!

@asilata Likewise, Asilata! I'm based off campus, but am generally around Birch when I'm on campus :-)
