i especially think "git forge over git itself" is a hard problem bc git forges are email and git is git https://circumstances.run/@hipsterelectron/114438748361004963
i previously attempted to do this https://circumstances.run/@hipsterelectron/114438980092740344 but have since realized long after the fact that doing it through git was a massive constraint and have now tentatively split up the problem into three separate components of:
(1) represent forge operations as messages distinct from any forge frontend or backend, so they can be generated by any forge and consumed by any frontend (e.g. text editor/IDE as well as browser)
(2) design a set of forge operations to represent the full breadth of how users wish to communicate around code (different projects use forges differently—how can the protocol address all the types of review styles? can/should the protocol encourage certain review flows instead of leaving user behavior to the frontend?)
(3) design a representation of identity and interaction content which can be federated across servers like fedi, so i can interact with a forge (e.g. make a PR that a project can easily consume) without making an account on the project's forge server

Capitalism didn't give us the internet.
Large-scale cooperation, open protocols, and free software gave us the internet. Capitalism gave us mobile sites that don't work because fifteen ads cover the screen.
@existentialcomics there's an early RFC on why capitalism won't deliver an Internet:

I still really really want a const, lifetime-erased type_id... I'm thinking of doing another attempt in facet — we need to be able to match on type id in const etc., it's just too important. `Shape::eq` should not show up in flamegraphs

What’s a good general purpose mastodon instance for a fediverse newbie to join?
It’s so annoying to read all these takes about not banning that German right-extremist party because that would only make things worse.
No. They need banning.
In a democracy we agree on rules and ways to renegotiate those rules. Use them to change what you don’t like, but if you attack the system in dishonest ways, you break the rules and are not allowed to play.
NOW is the time to end the destructive behaviour – in a completely democratic fashion, built into the system.
very excited about lower costs with new Sync v1.1 relay, and did a write-up on how to host one cheaply

If there's any overlap at all between my followers and the kind of science fiction fan who will be attending Worldcon in Seattle (
@seattlein2025Seattle Worldcon 2025) or just follows what's going on in that scene, then I beg you, please go easy on the Worldcon organizers. There's apparently some controversy around them deciding to use ChatGPT to vet possible panelists. Their statement on that is here: https://seattlein2025.org/2025/04/30/statement-from-worldcon-chair-2/ I'm not into SF conventions, but one of my favorite SF authors posted about this. 1/?

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.
Within one decade of completion, it had already generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.
If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.
