Hey there! 👋 Time for an #intro post!

I’m Rodrigo, a data scientist by day, and indie dev by night from Brazil!

I’ve built @chartyios.bsky.social to add charts to Apple’s Shortcuts app, and @chatstats.bsky.social to create fun statistics from group chats. Also working on @frameyios.bsky.social!

My (nov/2022) series 8 watch battery has now failed me twice during evening runs, even though I left home at 8am with a full battery. 🪫

Settings shows it as having a 79% health battery, in need of service. That costs R$ 1.000, or US$ ~189.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee.

I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

New: Conde Nast fired four employees who were among a group that confronted the company's head of human resources on Wednesday over the decision to fold Teen Vogue into Vogue/recent cuts. Employees who were fired included journalists from the New Yorker, Wired, and Bon Appétit.

Não vou destruir suas casas - desde que me assinem e recebam 5 tiras como essa por semana por apenas 5 real catarse.me/linhadotrem
quadro 1 - atrás de alguns prédios quadrados duas crianças olham pra cima e gritam "um monstro" "vai destruir tudo". Um lagarto gigante meio godzilla está se aproximando, com expressão neutra, e se volta para elas. quadro 2 - "Perdão, não quis assustar", diz o lagartão com olhar sereno. "Estou só de passagem, não vou destruir suas casas", completa. quadro 3 - "Casa o carai", grita a menina. "É tudo datacenter", o garoto explica, enquanto o lagartão se aproxima pra ver Último quadro - O lagartão e as duas crianças pulando felizes sobre os escombros de pedra, fios e computadores em pedaços

Desenho dividido em dois quadrantes horizontais. No primeiro há o Bolsonaro fazendo arminha com as mãos e sorrindo. Acima está escrito "No governo Bolsonaro". O Bolsonaro diz "No meu governo vamos flexibilizar a compra de armas!!!". No quadrante seguinte o fundo é preto e está escrito "Consequência". "O tipo de fuzil mais apreendido é o 556 e o 762 que foram armas autorizadas para aquisição de civis na gestão Bolsonaro. Fonte: G1- O Assunto #1.587".

Tarcísio é o Governador do Estado de São Paulo e articulou, com os deputados de extrema direita, votar contra um PL que taxaria Bancos, Bets e Bilionários

Segundo Tarcísio, o “povo” não aguenta mais impostos

Tarcísio anunciou cobrança de imposto (ICMS) de 15% em cima das gorjetas de trabalhadores

I've been exploring new color palettes for @chartyios.app 2.0! Trying to have some more colors, and some diverging palettes.

Youth - Gator Days
Youth - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 Gustopher watches the sun set. Above him the stars have started coming out. Regret slowly begins to set in as he comes to appreciate how fleeting life is. Gustopher: Have I wasted my youth? Panel 2 The world grows dark as Gustopher contemplates how little time any one individual actually has. The world is so full of beauty and wonder and there's so little time to truly appreciate it. Gustopher: The seasons change and so do I. If only I understood the value of days gone by. Panel 3 August is standing next to Gustopher and gives him a concerning glance. But he knows exactly what this is about. Panel 4 August: School starting makes me sad too. Gustopher: I wish I played more video games.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

This is in the replies and it demonstrates a real issue which is if you find profundity from an AI, you’re responding to something profound a human being wrote that was vacuumed up and what ends up happening is you thank AI and not only don’t thank the person, you have no idea they were involved
Michael Love@elkmovie.bsky.social • 6m I thought this sounded familiar and it turns out it literally just found an old George RR Martin quote and wrote a short story out of it: George R.R. Martin > Quotes > Quotable Quote (?) "I think there are two types of writers, the architects and the gardeners. The architects plan everything ahead of time, like an architect building a house. They know how many rooms are going to be in the house, what kind of roof they're going to have, where the wires are going to run, what kind of plumbing there's going to be. They have the whole thing designed and blueprinted out before they even nail the first board up. The gardeners dig a hole, drop in a seed and water it. They kind of know what seed it is, they know if planted a fantasy seed or mystery seed or whatever. But as the plant comes up and they water it, they don't know how many branches it's going to have, they find out as it grows. And I'm much more a gardener than an architect." ALT - George R.R. Martin

Pix is not a product. It’s public digital infrastructure. By using an open protocol architecture, Brazil gave its Central Bank the ability to govern the ecosystem, not tech giants or payment companies. That’s sovereignty in action +

The adaptation to #LiquidGlass continues here for @chartyios.app! As @davidsmith pointed in the latest #UnderTheRadar episode, a lot of this is removing custom code in order to get the advantages of what the system is offering.
