@dillo@fosstodon.org maybe consider: Absolute URLs are exclusively for hyperlinks to another webpage. Webpages should have been restricted to load files only by relative URLs & never load any file by absolute URLs. Also, per website style design was a terrible UX and accessibility mistake #Stylesheets should've been something you install in your own browser such that "the web" would have the uniform look and feel you prefer. Just a thought

@amoroso Fully agree If you know what you're going to build because you've done it before, use Rust, Ada, Pascal, etc if you have no clue what youre going to built yet, use a more forgiving material, like Lisp, SmallTalk, etc as you figure it out ——

To get copyright protection on executables, the author should at least put the full source code repository under escrow to be released once the copyright term expires.

Copyright only applies to something human created. Anything machine generated cannot be copyrighted, unless it's a simple reproducible transformation from something human created.

@lil5@social.linux.pizza Yeah agree about IRC, I would also add XMPP over tor/i2p I added Reticulum from a different perspective… more long term, LongNow? Not now exactly … Given how commercially mediated the internet is there is very little trust it will be available when needed most Hence, pointing to reticulum as a network stack which could be useful to build an alternative network of networks owned by individuals and communities which is a lot harder to break, stop, censure… it's just a thought

@jk We need to move to a culture where it's acceptable to just say that something is feature complete and just stop changing it. Especially in software we should just stop at some point and call it done. "Since version 3, TeX has used an idiosyncratic version numbering system, where updates have been indicated by adding an extra digit at the end of the decimal, so that the version number asymptotically approaches π."
