My Django performance testing library now has an HTML dashboard with charts included! `python manage.py mercury_test --html` This runs ONLY monitored tests, and generates the dashboard to help visualize and pinpoint performance problems. https://github.com/smattymatty/Django-Mercury-Performance-Testing Stars are appreciated :) #Django #backend #opensource

My initial response to the `Recursive Absurd` was a familiar one: surely we could engineer our way out - with better code, kinder patterns, more humane systems. I was wrong. The remedy isn’t cleaner loops - it’s refusing to become one. Introducing: &quot;Humanist Absurdism&quot; When the world grows more absurd, more automated, more systematically cruel- Choosing to remain human, together, becomes the most radical act left.

With more Canadian politicians and leadership candidates joining the #fediverse, I&#39;m curious: If you&#39;re torn between two candidates who both align with your values, does their fediverse presence actually influence your vote? Or is &quot;they&#39;re on Mastodon&quot; just vibes that don&#39;t translate to real support? #Canada #cdnpoli #cdnpolitics #elbowsup #canadapolitics

@OrionKidder I agree that having mastodon act as a proxy for an X account defeats the purpose and feels inauthentic. One would expect them to &#39;practice what they preach&#39; to gain trust.

@OrionKidder @emilylowan @tonymcquailgreenprogressive @votetanille Nice! Yeah, watching her campaign made me wish I lived in BC with such leaders! Instead I&#39;m here in conservative Ontario (sigh)

Been working on this all day. Hosted on @fedihost (Canadian, no US dependencies), ready for anyone who wants a local community on the fediverse. I&#39;m going to be transferring my account there another day, for now I need sleep. If you&#39;re in Ontario or connected to it, come say hi. And if you&#39;re running a Canadian instance, let&#39;s connect. https://socialontario.ca #Ontario #Canada #Mastodon #Fediverse #OpenSocialWeb
