RIP Sarah, things were just starting to look up for you... You had pulled in the first harvest of rice and were no longer starving, and finally stole some untainted clothes to remove the mood debuff from being naked. A cougar opened the door and ate your face off, I'm sorry for that.

Remember kids, don't forget to claim the door of the ruins you're squatting in.

#introduction

I fight for the users.

I love programming and thinking and talking about thinking. I have an education (BS, MS, PhD) focused on artificial intelligence and neuroscience.

I'm an advocate of the public academic pursuit of knowledge, the scientific process, peer review, and I see open source software and hardware as an essential part of the scientific process.

I see software user rights, including security and privacy, to be protected mainly by free open source software, specifically software with a copyleft license, i.e. GPL or Mozilla.

I see the democratizing effects of the Internet, including distributed journalism and social networking, to be largely the effect of the collaborative development of free and open source software.

I am interested in free and open source manufacturing, including open source 3D printers and CNC machines. I believe open source manufacturing will be important for distributed manufacturing, allowing local manufacturing and local labor.

I see worker-owned coops as the way to safely transition from a non-democratic authoritarian top-down power structure of a traditional corporation to a democratic work environment, where the workers own the company and elect the board of directors, transitioning to democracy in the workplace.

I believe that socialism is a regulatory response to capitalism.

I believe that laws, money, corporations, and government are social agreements, and I'm in favor of democratic social agreements.

I believe in the organized non-violent boycott as a way to control capitalists and change corrupt systems.

I am a pacifist. I am against violence. I am against citizens keeping guns in cities and towns with children. I am against war.

I try to eat plant-based / vegan foods to boycott the animal industry, to help with the climate crisis, to improve my health, to avoid animal cruelty, and to avoid the extinction of species of plants, animals and ecosystems.

I have been diagnosed with Retinitus Pigmentosa, which is a disease of progressive retinal degeneration. I am legally blind, although I have about 5-degrees of vision remaining in my fovea. I'm interested in researching and developing BCIs (Brain-Computer Interfaces), specifically BCIs that function as vision prostheses that may help with conditions like RP, or the more common degenerative retinal disease AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration).

I enjoy playing computer games like Age of Empires and Rimworld. I used to program computer games when I was younger and would like to get back to it one day.

I love playing music, especially bass guitar. I've been listening to a lot of Rage Against the Machine and Enya recently.

I enjoy reading books, mostly non-fiction.

I enjoy studying religions. I've found a lot of value in Buddhism, and I meditate often daily.

Nina and I have recently had our first baby, a boy we call Tyoma.

I'm currently working at Apple on the Vision Pro headset team.

I'm sober.

#rimworld biotechで宇宙船打ち上げクリアした。メカニター楽しかった。
Biotechの感想
遺伝要素: 子供が大きくなるまで時間かかりすぎてつまらん。遺伝子集めても時間かかるしなぁ
サングオファージ: ロングジャンプからの接近戦が楽しい。ただし治療がちと強力すぎるかも
メカニター: カマキリ大量楽しい。リフターとか有用なメカも多いけど制御幅という制限もあって適切に楽しい

反応炉起動する前に13機カマキリを用意したが、最終的に残ったのは3機だけだった。

Okay I’m looking at my old #introduction and realizing I missed a lot, so I’m just gonna redo this. Enjoy my #reintroduction.

Hi I’m Zero (they/them). I’m your local #enby #cyborg (if you live in #Alberta #Canada that is)

You’ll find me posting here about anything that interests me, from #politics (#communist) to #religion (#atheist), #gaming (#SatisfactoryGame and #Rimworld), #programming (#rustlang), #sysadmin (#debian ftw) and #LGBT topics. also #deaf with #cochlearimplants

See you around!

I hate introductions, but I guess I *should* try... so here's an #introduction post.

Hi, I'm Shiri, my name is self chosen and is Hebrew for roughly "My Song", which feels right given that I'm trans and working on living my own song. It's early but it's satisfying.

I love every chance I can get to be playfully sarcastic and spend most of my time on here going through the federated feed looking for places to be snarky or jump into random discussions.

As my bio says, I'm a proud #autistic #jewish #lesbian. As such I'm prone to info dumping from time to time. If my post says something like "show more" then it's probably 3 or more pages long.

Some of my special interests:

* #Python programming
* Talking about how big systems work ranging from governments, to businesses, to crowds, to economics (crypto is fascinating even though I think it's a train wreck)
* #Technology
* #Religion (up front: I do not believe all people need religion, but I will happily debate atheists on why religion serves a purpose)
* How people work/think (kinda somewhere between psychology and socialogy, I love knowing how the gears turn)

But I'll also dive occasionally into talk of philosophy, particularly of the practical sort. I also play the occasional games, though rarely multiplayer (#Borderlands, #Minecraft, #Rimworld, especially #Rimworld)

I also *love* sharing my knowledge on any topic. It's such a joy to show someone something new.

Oh... and if you flirt with me I will meltdown.
