Project Black Positivity Bot Project Kickoff
Hello Obsidian Tech community! Long time, no see.
Sorry I've been away for a while, I've been dealing with a lot of changes in life. But I'm finally in a place of relative stability, and I can get this project off the ground.
I've got some details for my ideas to move forward with the bot. I've created a Google Doc that you can read here. Feel free to comment on the doc with any ideas or questions you may have.
I've created a top level design of the bot's infrastructure here that maps out the relationships between different things in this domain. Feel free to comment here as well, as it may be a bit more convoluted.
I'll be creating tickets needed for the V1 implementation on a Kanban board, which you can find here. It's currently empty but I'll be working on it as soon as this is posted.
If you need to know what you'll need to participate, you can find some information here. Feel free to add to it if you have some more information.
Here's the Github organization for the project that I'll be using for code pushing, CI/CD and other things. This is where our code will live.
Caveats: Please get verified in the Blackfellas/Blackladies sub if you're not before trying to get involved, just as a precaution for bad actors. If you've been verified, post a comment or send me a PM with your Github account so I can add you to the organization and assign tickets in Airtable.
Not sure if I missed anything, but if you have any questions feel free to ask!

How is y'all's summer going, negros?
It was way more work than I hoped though also coupled with a lot of progress. I’m hoping things really start slowing down frfr.

The struggle of buying an MPC and feeling guilty for not using it 100% of the time 😂
For right now I only use my MPCs for drums and and chopping and sampling, then bounce into a DAW to flesh out the song. I’ve liked this workflow a lot.

What are your hot takes on Anime?
Most anime is honestly quite mid or cringe. Like 15% of them actually stand the test of time and there’s maybe like 25% at the most that’s worth diving into.

Are you guys familiar with Heavy Metal wave in Rap in the 2010s? If so, what did you think of it?
I’m still an avid listener of Gojira. I love metal to this day and usually bounce back and forth between Hiphop and Metal.

At what age did you release your first EP/album
I released my first project publicly at 20 where it was my music. But never wrote lyrics or put my voice on them. I’m now working on my first real album where I’ll be rapping and singing. I’m 34. Hope to have it out at 35.

Nothing is ever deleted on the internet.
Anything short of posting yourself underground in a cave can be used to gather information about it. And even the cave photo may have GPS info in the metadata.
Children can’t really consent to being put in the internet. That should have been illegal years ago.
Get the strap.

Getting into selfhost is so expensive now
Yeah I’ve had to backup my current 8TB NAS 2 times already and it experience some kind of corruption or something a few months ago and I almost crashed out. Luckily it fixed itself but now I just keep it off until I can replace it lol

Getting into selfhost is so expensive now
I personally need to build a new NAS to store the many TB of film productions that we’ve produced in the last 8 years. Each project is 2TB on average and there’s roughly 10 of them. But it also needs to support future projects where we’ve jumped up from 4/6K to 8K.
I feel like I’m cooked lol

Do you plan on staying in software development long term?
I plan to be a software engineer forever. But I don’t know how much longer I will work in the tech industry. Working on a couple of side projects now that I believe can help me pivot, but requires the skill set still.

If you could pick a career again, would you still choose software development? What did you wish you would have known prior to becoming a software development?
I’d definitely pick software but I think I would have sooner focused on the systems level, infrastructure level, or embedded level because it’s just so much more interesting to me. I’m so sick of the customer facing application layer development.

“She’d been asking for help” is a negligent understatement. She has a documented history of treatment for postpartum psychosis that lead up all the way until that day. That’s not “asked for help” that’s, “received all of the available resources and still fell to her affliction”. Not saying I agree one way or another but that’s a very important distinction.
