IDK seems fun to post this.
Is it weird that I kinda want to turn "Stone3D" (named because the first thing I saw in the texture pack was some stone walls) into a usable little engine for me to make small 2.5d games? Like, wolfenstein with more of a focus on interaction?
It'd be so easy to slap in some lua hooks to this for object logic and just... make a wee fun game with it.

it's hard to really convey the level of society-wide enthusiasm for exploring the potential of computers that existed in the 1980s
there were all manner of children's books; there were big-budget movies presenting visions of what the new world might be like; there were courses about it in primary school

cool episode from the 
@changelog (https://changelog.com/podcast/676)
I recommend listening to it! I think I am spotting some circular logic: "you" are building software with "agents" but you can't trust them so you build tests suite, QA process and more (also using LLM)... Not sure you can solve trust like that.
Similar for code review, you need to review more but you can´t build mental model while writing code.
Interesting take also at the end on FOSS (GNU considered?).
2026 year or trust?

Today, there still are people, though maybe a small number, that necessarily do understand each part.
However it seems to me there’s now two new kinds of debt: knowledge and understanding. Unsure what that means…

Ugh 😩 I met my new doctor today, had my yearly exam, and got three vaccines. Now I feel like shit from the jabs, and lemme tell you...
I'd get them again in a fucking heartbeat, because science and social responsibility fucking rock 🤘
Did I just carefully even out the pull cords for my hoodie's hood? Well, maybe I did. They weren't off by much before, but they were off.
(I won't swear that the cords are now exactly even but they're close enough that any difference isn't apparent to me when I'm wearing the hoodie, and that's what matters.)
@cksChris Siebenmann I have one hoodie that has stitching in the center of the hood preventing me from equaling out the pull cords, and I CANNOT WEAR IT ANY MORE.
:3 meow
@evanEvan Prodromou There are social expectations that people have for how to be careful and neighborly.
Encoding those as laws/rules is challenging & leads to HOAs and spite-houses & stumbles across individual norms and environmental factors.
I maintain open-source; I /volunteer/ my time & energy as a service.
Corporations are amoral entities with large financial power. And tend to operate w/rules designed to discourage civic engagement & reward exploitative behavior. They should be forced to contribute.

Some really good news.
A new university will be built in Arviat, Nunavut, on the western shores of Hudson’s Bay, by 2030. It will be by and for Inuit peoples and all to learn the culture and language of the North and for people in the North to obtain post-secondary education in their language.

I wish I had a hard number on what I though it'd take "to be a maintainer"
"It depends" *feels* like a cop out, but:
- Is the code stable & well written?
- Or is it spaghetti code that just mostly runs?
- Is it a niche app? Or super-popular that everyone uses?
- Or does Russia *really* want data off one of your servers?
The curve could easily go from negligible (0-5 hrs/week) to being 60 hrs+ for months
My work is 30-40hrs/week, but I'm still greenfield, not maintaining, sooo 🤷🏼♂️

@evanEvan Prodromou I'm not entitled to anyone else's time or attention.
If I felt a project was not sufficiently maintained for my use case I would simply not use it.
What that threshold is has more to do with complexity, known bugs, etc.
But if I download some code someone wrote and put online for free, the author has no obligation to me, nor do I think they should.
If it mattered so much to me, I could offer to help - or fork the project.
@evanEvan Prodromou I'm going to assume you mean the RFC 2119 definition of "should", in which case the poll is asking how much time is recommended for a maintainer to reserve in their schedule each month, and not how much time they are obligated to. I think reserving a day of slack in one's schedule to be able to spend 8 hours moving things along in the project as needed is probably a good idea, but different projects and different maintainers will have radically different needs and constraints.
Loops Pages - CMS Admin side feature ✨
Yeah, admins can create custom pages written in markdown (with a live preview), and you can even set a custom url.
But that's not all, you can even link it in the sidebar menu or footer for guests or logged-in users, or both, or none of the above, making it accessible via url only.
It's versioned with a changelog, and is just one of many unique features that sets Loops apart.
