I am giving numerous @groovy.apache.org & AI talks at upcoming @apache.org events. I hope to see you there. Take your pick: armadillo/furled sails, or full sails/startled armadillo! Why not both!

Trans friends, you belong. I see you as your full selves. 💜
To every transgender Minnesotan: you belong here.
This decision does not change MN's law or our commitment to protecting LGBTQ+ people. Today's rulings remind us that defending the rule of law also means defending the rights and dignity of every person. I'll never stop fighting to do both. 8/8

And after more than 6 years of continuous service to the DFL in various positions, I'm taking a step back. I am hopeful, seeing all the new faces this year, that others will continue to do the work we started.
First, I will get some rest, but then I'm going back to the tech community.

We’ve been fostering this little guy, Checker, for a month now and he’s absolutely adorable. He’s a bit shy around humans but blossoms around other cats.

Hi all! I'm running for school board this year! I'm not ready to hard launch yet, but I AM ready to start building my campaign infrastructure. If you can donate early, it would really help me build infrastructure (branding update, literature, website translation, and an email system!). Please help!

I found @transkribus.bsky.social ! It worked great!
Anyone know of an AI model trained to read old documents from an image?
In particular, I’m trying to translate, or at least convert to text, some 18th century documents for genealogy research. They are in German if that helps.

Now that she’s fixed and vetted, Beauty is available for adoption. If you know of anyone looking for a very loving large dog good with other dogs, cats, and kids, please share.
I’m also happy to answer any questions.

As one of the hospitalized, I can tell you that this kind of infection is no joke. I got really sick and won’t be ordering pink burgers any time soon.
