non-programmers are an important part of open source projects. non-programmer contributions are valid and useful and not second tier or otherwise less valuable.

it's easy to say programmers are the only value-add when you're fortunate enough to have enough non-programmers that you can take them for granted.

if you take away the feature requests, translations, and general chatter - many OSS projects would have never been more than flawed, narrow use case tech demos.

looking at my old code like "what were you thinking, scarly? i'm taking away your python now before you hurt anyone."

@scarly
*Hospital gets new patient information software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some nurses and doctors instead of just other programmers"
*School gets new student assessment software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some teachers and students instead of just other programmers"
*Construction company gets new materials tracking software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some installers and estimators etc"

Just a trend I've noticed

my jaw has swollen to the point where my ears are closing and I feel dizzy/lightheaded... my f*ckin dentist appointment cant come soon enough

(and let me tell you, there have been a lot of horrible emails)

hrt timeline but it's my sona, sfw furry art 

feminizing hrt has some interesting effects on tiger sharks

most notably the fact they get much bigger overall

why is my brain always like

"you drew a cute character based on one of your others... you should make them into another OC!!"

it doesn't even matter if it's like "ok so this is what this character looked like before hrt"

brain goes "make them into another oc"

Show thread

i just read an article in the New Yorker about applying "decisionmaking science" to everyday life stuff like whether or not to get married, etc

my takeaway is that i don't understand white people

why do I wanna make a cute shark boy that's almost identical to my shark girl's early form

gender is a fuck, but it's your fuck, and you may fuck with it however you please
