State of Open Con is really going "all in" on the British angle: "afternoon tea" break and audio of Stephen Fry reading Douglas Adams in the loos. 🇬🇧 #SOOCON25

Happy federated New Year! 🥳

A bit more on the Ethical Web Principles - and how we give them teeth in the W3C process: https://www.w3.org/blog/2024/ethical-web-principles-building-a-better-web/

Today is a big day. The Ethical Web Principles has been published as a W3C Statement, meaning it’s now fully endorsed by the W3C. More info here: https://www.w3.org/news/2024/ethical-web-principles-is-a-w3c-statement/ #EthicalWebPrinciples These principles already have started to influence the development of web specifications percolating through the W3C, both directly and via other guidelines docs like the Design Principles and Privacy Principles. Kudos to @hadleybeeman, @rhiaro and the rest of the @tag.

For the avoidance of doubt: nothing changes. MAGA is still a hate cult. Climate change is still real. Earth is still round. Vaccines are still effective. Trans and non-binary people are valid. Women are people. Black lives matter. Love is love. No person is illegal. Hold your ground. Double down.

Seems like an apt time for a (re)intro message. I'm Dan. I'm a US/UK dual national living in London. I work for Samsung on open source stuff. I co-chair @tag am a member of @openssf Technical Advisory Council, and a co-founder of @openwebdocs. I care about how technology impacts society. 👋

On my way to Vienna for @openssf SOSS community day! 🪿

Very sad to hear of the passing of a friend, Erik Riedel @er1p.

Just gave a talk to Japanese @w3c member companies, presenting about the #Fediverse and encouraging some more engagement between W3C Japan and local communities & projects that are working with #ActivityPub. Already, one person on the call said they are active on #Misskey and will reach out to them. 💗

My team at Samsung Open Source Group is hiring! If you’re interested and you have any questions feel free to reach out to me. https://boards.greenhouse.io/samsungresearchamerica/jobs/7465775002 #jobs #opensource
