So...I'm from Delhi, India, and I love surveying for #OpenStreetMap. I'm a pretty active mapper and I've also done a professional field survey for Médecins Sans Frontières (a.k.a. Doctors Without Borders).

I also like teaching people. In the past one year, I've organized 15+ mapping parties and workshops, where I taught how to use OSM and how to contribute to it.
Could I #GetFediHired to do any of this full time? Open to relocating or traveling.

"Iceland’s economy is outperforming most European peers after the nationwide introduction of a shorter working week with no loss in pay, according to research released Friday.
[...]
Researchers found that productivity stayed the same or improved in most workplaces, while workers’ wellbeing increased “dramatically” on a range of measures, from perceived stress and burnout to health and work-life balance."

i think a radical paradigm shift might help here:
make publishers manually add links to responses and discussions that they wish to elevate.
one interesting model for this that i’ve seen is a site where every article contains in its footer an email address, and if you have something to add to the conversation, you email that address, after which the author *might* manually add your comment for everyone else to see.
this also discourages responding to a comment instead of to the article.
Excited to write some code to this track tomorrow 😈

@ann3nova It was always nice getting a visit from Him as soon as you finished the game. No clue how he managed to time his plane trips so precisely. Sometimes I'd stay on the final boss just before it died and just see Him staring through the living room window. Ah the 90s
@bazylevnik0 Ehh, in my experience the cardboard stuff was very lackluster. It's the cheapest option but also the worst for VR, and given a Pico 4 can go for like 500 bucks it's pretty comparable to the cost of a plane ticket but unlike a plane is a one time cost for attendees and unlike cardboard has some solid baseline VR functionality.
It's cheaper and maybe more accessible to host a conference in #VR and get everyone to buy headsets rather than airplane tickets to another country.
Manufacturers should have some sort of out of the box config you could bulk order and send out to people
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
