ARTISTS:
Have you ever worked on a drawing and it's going well, but it feels like *something* is missing? Something that could add mystery, meaning, a sense of scale, a touch of nature?
The painting just isn't complete.
At times like this I'd ask "Have you considered adding some ants?"
There are always ants in life, so ... they can always help give artwork that *something* that's missing.

@futurebird my grandfather collected oil paintings in his retirement and would often meet the artist at home. One of his paintings was a beautiful Scottish highland scene with a loch with a couple of noticeably out of scale ducks on it: he had persuaded the artist to add the ducks later because he thought it was missing something.

@futurebird Like this one, definitely improved by adding the ants.

@futurebird In my first graphic design class we were given an assignment to fill 100 1inch by 2inch rectangles with as many interpretations of a theme assigned to us by the professor as we could until all the rectangles were filled up. I got "Ant". I really wish I had a photo of that right now. I got an A+. She _never_ gave A+s

same, this sounds delightful.
It's why I do all of this "why not draw some ants?" posts. I just want to look at a cool drawing of some ants.

@futurebird I hope it's ok if I prefer Vulcanidris to Camponotus.

Our free stickers went like hot cakes yesterday at #FOSDEM. The new "My friends are not for sale" ones are all gone, they were an experimental last-minute print of a new design (which is coming soon as a t-shirt, by the way!). The less stuff for us to carry back home, the better. I wish people would grab the leaflets too!

Repubblica. Una decina di persone vestite di nero e incappucciate lo ha accerchiato in uno dei controviali: calci, pugni e tre colpi di martello alla schiena mentre cercava disperatamente di proteggere la testa. L’agente, sposato con un figlio piccolo, ha riportato contusioni multiple e una ferita alla coscia sinistra. Solo l’intervento di un collega che è tornato indietro proteggendolo con lo scudo lo ha salvato da conseguenze peggiori.

@scottjenson not at all!
I think the Readme for the API task force covers it pretty well.
https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-api?tab=readme-ov-file#introduction
tl;dr is that social applications on ActivityPub are often built as an integrated client-server stack.
In other ecosystems, like the Facebook Platform, app developers could leave the complicated parts of storage, authentication, social graph, and distribution to the platform, and they'd just concentrate on innovate experiences at the top of the stack.

Difficilmente mi si sentirete dire cosa unə NON dovrebbe fare.
Perdonatemi, ma questo è uno di quei casi.
Il pianeta è la nostra vita:
- non è un prodotto da consumare in un attimo come un panino
- non è a nostra disposizione
- non va scoperto con superficialità
- ci rilassa solo se gli consentiamo di essere visto lentamente, assaporato
- va protetto dal traffico aereo (in particolare quello compulsivo).In un giorno, meglio fare visita a un amicə.
