Thanks to you all.

Getting ready for the GUADEC (as an online speaker), see you on Saturday, guys!

(Hope I can be there in person at the next event without any war and sanctions for Iranians)

I'm contributing to a new application from @azibom called Assistant, which is aimed to become part of the GNOME Circle community. Here is the icon I designed for now.

Hi, I got accepted as a speaker at openSUSE Asia this year 🎉
The summit is happening August 29–31 at the MRIIRS University in India.

If the Indian embassy in Tehran opens and flights go back to normal (thanks to the recent war between the Islamic Republic and Israel), I'll attend in person and give my talk, hoping the country + war situation don't get in the way.

Netblocks: #Iran has now been disconnected from the global internet for 36 hours; live metrics show national connectivity remains in the low few percent of ordinary levels with only a handful of users able to connect via multi-hop VPNs.

I was wondering why GNOME's i10n platform is called "Damned Lies"?

I searched and I only found a link to "Lies, damned lies, and statistics" article on Wikipedia. After understanding the context a bit, I wasn't sure about the link between this and the localisation web app, so I asked in the @gnome I18n room on Matrix, and Alexandre generously explained it. Since there was no online explanation, I wrote a post about it on my blog. Hope it helps.

I just tested out the Gradia application to make my screenshots look better, and it was amazing. The app is awesome and does exactly what it's supposed to. It's super easy to use and has almost all the features someone would expect from such an app. Huge thanks to Alexander Vanhee for making Gradia (I couldn't find his Mastodon account).

It's hard deciding where to add new features in the application, design-wise. Currently, I want to add a feature to support longer rhythms instead of limiting it to only 16 beats and 4 bars. I don't want to have 4 toggles for pages 1 to 4 and again be limited to only 4 pages (16 bars).
So we need an input for the number of pages and buttons for "next/last page." I'm wondering if it's a good idea to add them at the end of the drum sequence box, or in the bottom action bar or somewhere else?

I was adding some new features to Drum Machine and playing with it, and found a cool rhythm, so I thought it would be cool to record it, and here it is:

TWIG #202 is out, and we recorded a (not-so-short anymore) podcast for it (in Farsi).
From now on, we have @sinaaghighi as our new speaker on the podcast. In this episode, he dived into the @deobald weekly ED report. It's great to have the transparent foundation reports featured in the episodes, and we're happy to have Sina handling that.
Also, our podcast was mentioned in TWIG #202, and we introduced it there too.
