New account, so new #introduction. Let's do it again!

I have a
#MastersDegree in #ComputerScience and #ComputerEngineering. I went to #NMU for undergrad and #MSU for my graduate degree. I currently work at #UChicago for the #TMWCenter, which focuses on helping young children acquire language (and therefore other learning skills) faster.

In my spare time, I develop
#OpenSourceSoftware such as
- a
#SphinxDoc extension that embed #Fediverse comments on your page
- a library to talk to
#ManifoldMarkets from native #Python
- a
#PredictionMarket manager using the above
- a
#transpiler from a subset of Python to #OpenStreetMaps's #OverpassQL
- bug fixes to many other projects, including
#mypy, #base58, #attrs, #CPython, & more

I spend a fair bit of my time these days on
#MathResearch, specifically into the #ThueMorse Sequence and its extensions.

I'm also a hobbyist editor on OpenStreetMap.

#Demisexual, #transfem, and happily engaged to my #enby sweetheart.

We have two cats:
#OpheTheLoaf and #MayalaranTheCat (yes, from #StormlightArchive) See here for more on them!

I speak English fluently, Spanish haltingly, and am trying to learn Chinese

TransFem SpaceOlivia A-C (@LivInTheLookingGlass)These are our cats, #OpheTheLoaf and #MayalaranTheCat. Ophelia was originally my partner's, we live together full time now, and are an integrated family Fun facts about Ophelia: * She is missing a tooth, so her lip sometimes gets stuck open in a cute way * She has an "activation noise" that sounds kinda like a pigeon * She will often do 10/10 loafs, hence the nickname Some facts about Maya: * Her favorite hobby is judging the neighbors * She is very anxious * She has an incredibly dainty play style * She has a series of increasingly ridiculous nicknames: Mayalaran -> Maya -> Mayo -> Aioli -> Au Jus (Follow the hashtags if you want just my cats) #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfFedi (📎8)

My organization (Software Heritage) is using more and more #pads (using #HedgeDoc) for real-time collaborative elaboration of documentation, presentations, etc.

However, once completed, we have a hard time referencing the content, indexing it, archiving it. Completed documentation pages land in our #SphinxDoc project, which is properly indexed and hyperlinked, but not all of the pad content needs to land there.

Do you know of groups that have existing strategies to make sure that the knowledge stored in pads doesn't end up stuck in that black hole forever? I would especially welcome #git or #GitLab based, automated workflows. #Archivists #KnowledgeManagement

I've found the CERN CodiMD archive project, which seems promising, but, hilariously, only referenced on their own CodiMD instance. I haven't found any code for it.

Seems like #GitLab has killed its real-time collaborative edition project as well, so that seems to be a dead end.
