@helvetica that was the point when I finally made the jump. paying $100 a month for software was criminal enough, but doing it for bad software stopped making any sense at all.
We're hiring a Technical Administrator at @spritelyinst! This position is both technical and organizational... more or less you'd be helping the Executive Director (me) carry out the mission of the organization using FOSS tools. https://spritely.institute/news/come-work-with-us-hiring-a-technical-administrator.html
You don't have to be a programmer to take this position, but you do have to be comfortable with using and *learning* FOSS tooling (such as Emacs and Org-Mode, which are used heavily in the organization).
Non-traditionally CS paths to using FOSS tech are welcome; particularly excellent for someone who is early in their career as a free and open source enthusiast, or a humanities graduate student who uses technical tooling to organize their work, or someone who has established experience in the organizational end of FOSS ecosystems. If you feel that assisting in the organization of a FOSS nonprofit while using or learning particular FOSS tools is appealing, apply! https://spritely.institute/jobs/2024-09-12-technical-administrator.html

@andymakes for Star Scum, I started with a kanban board and then over time it just naturally migrated into a single page on Notion that is basically just a text file where the hard TODOs are mixed with random less important ideas. it's nice to have it all be on one page and then i can move things up and down to de/prioritize things.
Okay, you asked, and now there's a hand near the mouse to meet the one on the nearby socket as well. Thank you all for the suggestions so far. (already on Nodezator's dev branch as well). #Python #nodeeditor

the project is a physical sliding scale for a sandwich shop/bakery cooperative in my neighborhood. their sandwich prices are sliding scale and I thought it would be fun to have a little widget that let people pick the price! unit with the potentiometer is customer facing and the unit with the display is staff facing.

this is wild. are there any other examples of a physical device being used only as a mental model at advanced levels?
