Dolly Parton built Dollywood in the county she grew up poor in, and it became one of the biggest employers there. What a talent, humanitarian and business woman. Sad day.
Does anyone know an artist who does solid portraits? It can be paint or charcoal.

So much love for the Node.js community.
I gave my first ever tech talk at @NodeConfCo, and I got to show up for @RenderATL. Really grateful to the foundation for the opportunity.
What happens when the Node.js community gets together to talk about the future? A lot. 👀
Node.js Interactive 2026 brought developers, maintainers, speakers, and open source leaders together in Atlanta for conversations about the technology and, just as importantly, the people behind it.
And there was a reminder worth repeating: open source infrastructure runs on people. Supporting maintainers and strengthening communities is how we keep the ecosystem moving forward.
Catch up on the conversations and takeaways from Node.js Interactive 2026 👇
Thank you @aviv_keller for the post. And thank you @RenderATL for having us.
WE LOVE OUR COMMUNITY!

Y’all, every year I cast my Hail Mary net with a level of audacity that is unnatural to me. I do it for @GitHub Universe. I message my heroes and ask if they’d come have a conversation with me for the podcast.
Sometimes the DMs go unseen. Sometimes I get to meet someone IRL who was absolutely worth the wait.
I’m so grateful for the people who reply. I don’t have a massive following, but what I do, I do with heart and love for anyone who takes the time to listen.
