GitLab open sourced push mirroring and added it core. This is a great win for #decentralization!!! You can now run your own canonical GitLab instance & easily mirror to GitHub for findability.

Think about opening your new project on gitlab.com instead of #github. Later on you can migrate it to your own server. github = dead end

RT @vboykis@twitter.com: Unreal. This thing has gone too far.

Is the Scholarly Kitchen just Medium, but for people who want to seem smart about scholcomm?

still on yesterday's piece like "wow they just let anyone post there"

No chrome.

There was a young man
From Toulouse who got lim'ricks
And haiku confused

a thought that just resurfaced: it'd be cool if mastodon / the fediverse at large had some kind of standard way to surface people's blog rss feeds and the like.

like remember how facebook used to let you publish a feed? that was of course a stepping stone to their enclosure of the web - but what's, like, the conceptual inverse of that? a thing that uses the energy here to build the whole open-web-glued-together-by-some-protocols side of things instead of trying to eat it?

@kensanata I'm a published author, and I think that the original copyright term of 14 years with the option to renew once for 28 years total was perfectly reasonable.

I'm borrowing from my culture to create; it's only fair that what I create should become part of the culture so that others can build upon it.

Life of the author is excessive, IMO. Life + 70-90 years is outrageous, since the monopoly on a work no longer benefits the creator, but descendants who had no hand in its creation.

even before age 35 you should know that by python 3.5 you should drop support for python 2
