#introduction post? Hi, I'm Dan.
I don't generally do social media. And yet here I am. Trying out this Fedi thing,
excited to have a space where I can just be myself.
I'm recently self diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic, #PDA, #Aphantasia, #Anauralia & officially #ADHD (39yo, better late than never!)
It's been so enlightening to finally start learning and embracing who I really am.
Meeting other autistic people has been amazing and is helping me feel less alone.
Went to the hospital today for neurological testing. I saw only four other patients who were wearing a mask and no practitioners or staff. I honestly don't understand.

Parce qu’elles ne sont pas forcément évidentes à retrouver sur le site web de la BnF, voici les liens vers les vidéos du dernier cycle de conférences de la #bibliothèque de l’Arsenal, « Éclats de papier », qui s'est tenu en 2023 :
Meshtastic just forwards your requests through other peoples devices until it gets where it needs. It acts as a big repeater system. I haven’t experimented with it much outside of just sending messages. I think you are able to transfer actual small files but that’s the limits.
I so miss the interactions that I had on Twitter. I've lost count of how many people I met there, especially educators, and yearn for being able to share and discuss things in that community. I'm going to try again to be more active here on Mastodon. If you have advice for how I can find and interact more surreptitiously with people, I'd so appreciate it!
For those in research or innovation spaces, (including open source),
What is your method for assigning tasks, of different priority and involvement levels.
How do you differentiate between presenting volunteer/open that have one set of quality standards, vs other quality standards for different tasks-roles-responsibilities?
