- “Well, you guys are using hundreds of thousands of lines of software in this moon shot, right?” “Right,” said the software engineer. “Well,” asked the rocket scientist, “how much does all that stuff weigh?” The reply: “…Nothing!”
- The software engineer didn’t understand; was he asking about the weight of the computers? No, the computers’ weight was already accounted for. Then what was the problem?

- Minor nitpick, sounds like Blue is just for reach/amplification (so far), reading and posting are still free otherwise, right? Regardless, fair point. I do think more consumer tech needs to try user funding, I’m glad to see a major doing it, sad they’re making such a mess of it.

- New article w/ Naomi Yamashita & @rhondamcewen in @socialmedia_soc! We analyzed GitHub issues to find breakdowns when syndicating between brid.gy and Facebook. Results explore how alternative social media can coexist w/ the corporate web doi.org/10.1177/205630…
- We’re excited to announce NCX’s winter 2022 cycle had the participation of nearly 1,800 landowners, a 15X increase in landowner participation from our first cycle less than a year ago. Read more: bit.ly/3r2G8A5
- I think our current framework for copyright and patents is inverted. Public domain should be the default, not the special case. My reasons here: kk.org/thetechnium/id…
- I’m building a house and I tell my contractor I don’t want any smart shit in it and he’s like “but you’re a tech guy?” and I say “yes exactly”.
- If you’re overthinking, write. If you’re underthinking, read.
- Finally, we can’t wait for our incredible lineup of speakers @sacca of @lowercarbon, @fionaspruill of @overstoryai, Zubair Jandali of @PachamaInc, @schnarfed of @NCX, and @kamal_kapadia of @terradotdo to share their stories and insights with our inaugural cohort!
- “Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates. At the first gate, ask yourself, “Is it true?” At the second gate ask, “Is it necessary?” At the third gate ask, “Is it kind?”” ~ Rumi
- Today: Lost a court case, climbed a mountain, read hundreds of pages of legal papers, wrote some code. Just as determined as ever to fight on until there is genuine developer and consumer freedom in software, and fair competition in each mobile platform software component.

- The ancient painters of Chinese scrolls were not exaggerating when they painted towering mountains jutting out of swirling clouds. This is the view from the top of Huangshan, (Yellow Mountain) China one early morning. Photo from my book #VanishingAsia #Huangshan #China #scrolls
- Many of us have known about the amazing biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest since childhood. I still remember the song from a video I saw about it when I was a kid: “The rainforest…the tropical rainforest.” It is also its own unique front in the climate change fight. 1/13
- Blogs = still the best representation of the Internet’s promise. Everyone should have a site that they own, not just a social media account (which are great for promoting blog posts).
- This Memorial Day weekend, I’m thinking about my grandfather, Raymond T. Lahar (middle), and rereading his memoirs. He fought in World War II, in the European and North African theaters, Company K, 142nd Infantry, 36th Division, 1942-1945.
- Today we received an EUA for LAMP, a technology that makes COVID-19 testing faster, more efficient, and less reliant on constrained supplies compared to RT-PCR. We’ve used it to create protocols for scalable lab design and return-to-work programs. color.com/lamp-eua-press…

- I took the paper skin of a wasp’s nest that I knocked off our house, flattened it, and framed it. Now hanging in my studio.
- Direct Line to God? I need to send God the Standard Soul Relinquishment Contract for [John Doe], I need his email or fax number, which ever is preferable.

- Trying to implement 2-3 finger trees in purely functional Python. Supposedly they can operate as deques/arrays/heaps/trees/hashtables with O(logN) complexity or better *and* they retain a snapshot of each modification (which makes many algorithms simpler). What is this magic?
- Apple and Google policies are literally ruining the smartphone experience. Shame on Apple and Google for continuing these horrid practices even as all of their customers, partners, and worldwide legislators and regulators speak in unison against it. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
- #ActivityPub (AP) is also now a @W3C Recommendation! https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/REC-activitypub-20180123/ Congrats @dustyweb @Tsyesika! Supported by @MastodonProject + interop like #indieweb site fed.brid.gy Mastodon #openweb #webstandards – Tantek
- Editor: How’s that story coming along Me:
- Musk’s ban of Kanye shows how arbitrary his new policy is. He’s banned Kanye not for hate speech or anti-Semitism but for “incitement to violence”. But Kanye’s tweet literally said “love everyone”. It was deplorable but it was not a literal incitement to violence.
- is indiewebing: I was just reminded how in the early days of Twitter to Facebook cross-posting, it prefixed your Facebook status with “is twittering:” — gRegorLove.com
- Installing Linux is sort of the equivalent of moving to Canada when one doesn’t like US political trends. Nope, we’ve got to fight for the freedoms we have today, where we have them today.
- So here’s the thing. You can only violate people’s legal rights and your own word so far before they lawyer up and come after you. I really do hope Musk changes his mind and does the right thing – the employees deserve that. But it’ll be fun as hell if he doesn’t.
- To me, iOS and Windows and Twitter aren’t just products but are places governed by principles, connected to people I know and creative works I’ve made or experienced. I still get hate for this 2018 tweet, but I feel a duty to fight for their future rather than abandon them.
- This is why I’m still an iPhone user. I abhor Apple’s monopoly hellscape, but firmly believe in the founding spirit of the company and fight on for the principles of the Apple of Woz. “I will never lose affection for people and things that came before.” youtube.com/watch?v=YBcdt6…
- If they can lawfully add a 30% Apple Tax to all NFT transactions, then they can lawfully add a 30% Apple Tax to all online banking and stock trading transactions. The App Store monopoly is seizing control of the American economy. Apple must be stopped!

- Have you decorated your room? In the Kham region of Tibet, China they leave nothing undone. They paint all the walls, ceilings and furniture, as in this home near Deqin. Why not? Photo from my book amzn.to/3rCxxU2 #VanishingAsia #Tibet
