A graphic reads “92% of participating ProPublica Guild members voted YES to authorize our bargaining committee to call for a strike.” The “92%” is very large. A ProPublica Guild logo is under the text.
1/ Today, we overwhelmingly voted to authorize a STRIKE as we fight for a fair contract with @propublica.org.
So… um… I (and Draga Doncila Pop and Eric Perlman and @joshmoore.bsky.social and @kevinyamauchi.bsky.social) started a thing! We are excited and terrified in equal measures, and look forward to working with you all in our amazing scientific imaging community! ❤️🔥
Read the linked post for the lowdown.
Photo of a slack thread of the snowboy once again announcing snow for ian and Matt. Matt says nooooooo thank you. Ian says snowboy=ian and Matt suffer bot
Agh it's missing the best picture
Snow storm has reminded me why we made this fun slackbot that lets us know who @earthmover.io it is snow for when. Super fun afternoon project! Matt and I also wrote up a quick blog about how it works wherein I learned a decent bit about working with weather data

I got right hooked by a driver there years ago. A welcome change!
I’m 250 paid subscribers away from a major goal. Think we can get there tonight? www.thehandbasket.co/upgrade

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I got too hungry and had to leave before they finished the rest with the extra early/mailin..but other people are there!
Graham and parks 2/4 machines. Waiting on the rest
Can you elaborate a bit more? There is some integration today, but as we note in the post there are some deeper levels that could make things a lot smoother.
I would love to know more what is vs is not working for you! Happy to chat anytime

Actually by far the biggest lie here is the zusy number. If you exclude the $7110 she contributed herself, and also the $1000 from a real estate lawyer who listed a Cambridge PO box then they are giving a her break by undercalculting her percentage by 4x....
Ok I was slightly off. It is approx accurate in terms of total value. But their clearly off by at least a few percentage points
And if you exclude unions and donations without addresses then it's 56%
Quick scroll through ocpf for McGovern and this has to be a crazy lie to find 66%
Maybe if you count some of the union donations which come form Dorchester. But that's obviously disingenuous, which I guess is the point...
I've interested you should email Christian about it. I've always found him very responsive, and he might be interested
My first ever 311 was a request to fix a curb cut damaged by a snow plow. Seeing it fixed was very empowering and I can truly say was the thing that set me up to be much more involved in local politics
1/ Check out our latest blog post earthmover.io/blog/xarray-... to learn about the dramatic improvement and performance of Xarray’s Zarr backend. We achieved improved the “time to first byte” metric, building on Zarr-Python’s new asyncio internals.
So many good things to read at non billionaire owned sites
“There’s still this idea that news is only ‘real’ once it’s confirmed by big corporate outlets. After all, could one woman with absolutely zero institutional backing in leggings and a sweatshirt in her NYC apartment really be the one to break such an important story? Now we know the answer is yes.”
I've shoveled that exact crosswalk myself a few years ago in similar circumstances 😔
Is there anywhere easy to see subway ridership on equivalent route? Like is this fewer people in Manhattan, or mode shift happening?
Also there's a fancy chili's lol . (This is at city center mall in salt lake)
An image of a pizza hut add of a pizza with several momos embedded in the crust
American fast food chains truly up their game when abroad. E.g. this pizza hut in Kolkata coming up with PIZZA CRUST STUFFED WITH MOMOS. The fusion I didn't know I wanted
My former landlord had his flaws , but it's forever to his credit that when I contacted after seeing his ad he stressed how I should not pay a broker, turned out to be pretty convincing to move into his place which was home for 5 years
A turkey exploring a tree
A group of turkeys. They are beautiful
Rain to alleviate drought AND seeing a flock of these beautiful turkeys! Can the day get any better?
