Me: Reading SF&F since about age 9, friends with LGBTQ people since age 16, working in software/tech since I was 16, practicing Zen since 17 or 18, on Internet by late 1980s. I helped invent modern credit card terminals at Verifone in 1980s, founded small ISP LavaNet in 1994, back to sw dev from 2005 on. Usenet (talk.bizarre), Making Light, Twitter. "I'm normal by Cubetown standards." Mostly here to chat, banter, & boost my friends & favorite writers. Cis/bi, he/him, relaxed about it.

A thing I just discovered about the Mastodon web UI:
You can edit the Alt text on a post you previously made, or add Alt text if you forgot to, by selecting Edit and then clicking the Alt Text widget after the edit form opens.
This probably seemed obvious to whoever implemented it, but if it wasn't obvious to me as a sometime UI designer/implementer, then it isn't to everyone else either.
