@MuchMimi @BrentToderian when people say that a city is “livable” they really mean “do rich people live there?”

Data scientist and educator based in Mongolia. I share my projects on datafantic.com.
It's odd but most of my datafantic newsletter subscribers are in Europe, but Europe only accounts for 30% of traffic.
Maybe I'm less of an American than I used to be.
@BrentToderian @MuchMimi yep this right here. When visiting Paris over the summer it was clear those living in downtown Paris were either wealthy or living in shoe boxes.
I am so potato at marketing.
I posted my Airbnb scraper on Reddit and literally thousands of people viewed by code.
I had a link to the blog post the whole time, but just added a link to signup directly in the notebook yesterday. Result?
Newsletter signups!
Make it easy for people to sign up!
@diffractie as someone not in a common time zone my posts often go missed by those that don’t diligently check their feed.
So relevancy algorithms aren’t so bad if they can surface things you wouldn’t otherwise see that you want.
It’s great when your kid is growing up. They can sit at the table and do their homework on their own while I unwind from the day.
Then we can play Minecraft dungeons together.
@emmalbriant @HenrickTheBull lists are private by default, so you could always keep it for yourself and share it only with those trusted.
@alexkyllo @ede they are definitely overkill. Would be nice to get full M1 support for most libraries. Alas the issue isn’t Python but the many underlying C++ libraries popular Python libraries are built on.
Takes time and it will work. I would love to never use containers.
@alexkyllo I'm on Mac (Apple Silicon) after switching from Windows. I used conda on PC and have used conda on Mac.
What got me was when JupyterLab Desktop came out. Simplified my life massively.
If I need something that doesn't work on M1 I have Docker Desktop or Deepnote.
Simon PhippsSeeing people with coding ability commenting on features they want in Mastodon, many of them framing their insights as if there is a bug.
Almost all ideas I have seen so far could be implemented in a client or a relay. For ones that can't, there are pull requests. For ones that are declined, downstream forking is feasible.
It's #OpenSource & based on a truly open standard, #ActivityPub. How about we frame ideas positively & look for places to contribute? This is not a walled garden run by VCs.
