A fresh #Introduction post for a fresh start here:
I’ve spent most of my tech career in open source. I’ve written some good code, but I tend to find my strengths are in developing teams and leveling-up the people on them so I currently work as a VP for small startup.
I care pationately about #sustainability and humane tech, even though I often find the definitions of both elusive.
My free time is spent reading, writing and enjoying the time I have with friends and family.
#Introduction 2.0 Hello my fellow Fedizens. I've done things like neuro research and editing at an international law firm. But right now I just hang out in the Fedi and do any activist work I can. I want to work with everyone to get ourselves out of this autocratic, white supremecist, finance-capitalist dictatorship hurtling us all into total collapse. I think I know a way out, but I struggle to write "persuasive" essays. Please wish me luck with that and reach out to discuss if you're curious.

Hallo #Fediverse,
wir sind das Projekt "Buber-Korrespondenzen Digital" (#BKD) und wir sind #neuhier!
Interessiert ihr euch für Martin #Buber oder dafür, wie man etwa 43.000 #Briefe für Wissenschaft und andere Interessierte digital zugänglich macht? Hier informieren wir ab jetzt über unsere Aktivitäten, geben Einblicke in unsere Arbeit und halten euch auf dem Laufenden.
If you want more feedbacks, you should put a picture image, an #introduction, and maybe some links to your work.
I recommend to follow hashtags like #Job #remote #remotework #work
Ask the #fediverse for opportunities but provide maybe a cv on request.
And, sorry, I dont have anything on my side right now, but if I see something I'll ping you.
This is my first post on Mastodon, so for an #introduction post I'm going to present a puzzle related to my interests, as I have an issue and could use the Fediverse's help! Specifically, the matter falls within the intersection of those interested in #blender3d as well as playing #guitar
I'm making a guitar fretboard visualizer with #geometrynodes as part of a bigger project, and am struggling with vertex selection for specific points fed by user input (think like how notes are numbered per string in guitar tablature)
Alt text for the images describe the issue I'm currently tackling:
A grid that represents a guitar fretboard, with a numbered index starting from 0 that increases along the X-axis. Upon reaching the last fret, the index number continues at the original X location and up one on the Y-axis. This repeats across all strings for all frets.
Below the grid is a Geometry Node setup that shows how the grid changes shape to reflect the number of frets and strings on the user guitar, with rotation and flipping for left-handedness, as well as a Sort Elements node that arranges the aforementioned index of the grid vertices.
In addition to the grid, small circles are instanced at every vertex of the grid with matching rotation via an Instance on Points node.
In the Geometry Nodes space, we can see the Player controls with an integer for each fretted string. Using Integer Math nodes, we can get the value for each fretted note.
Using a Viewer node, we can see the values that correspond to each fretted note (i.e. on a 25-fret, 6-string guitar: [string 1, fret 3] = 3; [string 2, fret 5] = 30, etc.)
With the current Player input, the expected result is to have only circle instances show up in the shape of a G Major barre chord (except rotated 90° CCW from the linked image).
The idea is that the grid maintains its index that starts with 0 and increments by 1 (image 1), and circle instances are placed at the vertices corresponding to the values shown in image 4 (3, 30, 55, 79, 103, 128, all higher values won't appear on the fretboard).
The actual result is that nothing appears to happen; no circles are instanced to the grid. I'm currently stumped, so I'm hoping a friendly noder out there might have the solution I seek. Thanks in advance!

@Jaden3 yeah, mastodon and Fedi are awesome! no algorithms or big companies profiting off your stuff either. a good tip is to make a post tagged with #introduction about who you are and what you're interested in, people will usually suggest accounts and hashtags to follow from there, and follow you if your interests match up with theirs! :)
Hey y'all if you just joined dis bih and want a boost to get followers copy me in so I can boost y'all shit.
I joined Mastodon like 1 year ago and it can be difficult an shit to get started so tag me an I boost y'all.
This bih good different to insta, tik tok , snap an shit but yall got get sum traction knowwhatI saying?
Tag me and I help y'all.

Velkommen til helvede @Anetelga @frejjse @Twilightstan 
Kig jer omkring, start med at følge en masse mennesker (så får I indhold herinde) og skriv en #introduction af jer selv + en lille profiltekst. Så er det lettere at lære folk at kende.
I kan få gode tips til at komme i gang her: https://helvede.net/@maiathecyberwitch/108215462431359588
Vores fællesskabsregler finder i her: https://helvede.net/about/
Skriv til mig eller @maiathecyberwitch @solgudinde @Herover hvis I har spørgsmål, problemer eller tanker.
#introduction hi I'm abigale, I'm bad at introductions but I'm a trans woman photographer who hasn't really taken photos in a while. Maybe someday soon
Just moved over from mastodon.design, so it's time for another #introduction!
I'm Toni 
I’m a software designer, though I’m spending more and more time writing code, mostly in #swiftui and #react
When I'm not heads down at work, you'll catch me #cycling, eating my weight in oranges, walking with my #schnauzer named Xenon, or just getting lost in a new #book, #anime, or #manga.
I’m also a passionate #yugioh collector, #nba fan and I play #guitar occasionally.
Heck! I’ve gotten a lot of new followers lately, due to Space Fox and other creative things. If I haven’t scared them all away through normal talkativeness and late night grumpiness, I’d like to talk a little bit about who I am, to introduce myself.
My name is Ren! I’m trans and nonbinary. It’s a complicated soup of gender minestrone that includes a bit of demigender, a bit of transfeminine, a bit of nonbinary, and a large amount of creature.
I’m also therian/otherkin, hence the “creature” bit. It informs a large part of my gender. I am three different creatures, concurrently yet separately, though I am not a shapeshifter.
I am:
-A grey fox
-A feathered dragon
-A Pokémon (Latias)
I am also off-limits. By which I mean I am both aromantic and asexual. I am not interested in anyone romantically or sexually and am unlikely ever to be so.
I have depression too. And probably ADHD, maybe other areas of neurodivergence. The depression used to be very extremely bad. Like I could have been hospitalized several times bad. Like, it’s a miracle I’m still here bad. I somehow managed to avoid all that though. Now I am doing my best to maintain a healthy attitude, when I can and to spread genuine positivity. But still, you can expect some discussion of mental health issues from time to time.
Anyway, I do art. Slowly. Excruciatingly slowly.
Have some pictures of me! (The ref sheet for my fox form is not done yet, sorry…)
#Introduction post!
I'm Kyle, based in #Chicago and I work in IT sales. My partner and I have two black #cats named Lucy and Smokey. 
I'm a fan of #selfhosting, mobile #technology, and I like to #travel when I can.
With the new instance I should have a new #introduction.
I am a working class independent researcher, mostly interested in #ViolenceStudies. I have been a student of #theology most of my life. I am interested in Space and Place, radical geography, feminist criticism, #poetry, Conflict Resolution, #ecology, and #astronomy.
I wrote a good deal about myself here: https://www.tilley.earth/
I write poetry almost daily and I have been writing poetry for just over 30 years.

This is me! (From a few years ago, but I haven’t changed much.) I thought I’d say hi and show my face around here. I don’t do this often - I’m mostly an introvert. But just sharing my work can feel a little impersonal, so I wanted to show the person behind the lights.
