Reasons why you might hire @juliana :

- She's cool
- She's made contributions to Guix and a few other FOSS projects
- Webassembly to RISC-V compiler internship say what
- She co-hosts a podcast sometimes which is pretty good https://podcast.librepunk.club/tctc/
- You'd be helping out a smart translady figure out what's next
- I said so, it's a good idea

@cwebber
Who'da thunk Wade L. Quattlebaum, former used car salesman, could be a fraud?

@cwebber This is one of my favorite crazy stories. Absolutely incredible.

@cwebber Please remember that the cops still buy quadro tracker styled hoax devices.

They do call them "lie detector" or "polygraph" though.

(okay this maybe is kinda mean)

please boost this message across the network as far as you can I think it's really about time someone explained activitypub to me

@cwebber let me tell you how activitypub is like spaghetti and mastodon instances are the meatballs

@cwebber the thing about moderation is for every bad instance there is like 5 good ones. If your on a decent instance moderation is great and you have a great experience

Most of the reasons for this are still, I think, correctly outlined in my OcapPub writeup https://gitlab.com/spritely/ocappub/blob/master/README.org

(yes it's not finished, I decided to move on to focusing on implementation work, but the critique parts are correct, and the path that's painted is still right.)

@cwebber (especially when the wrong examples are demonstratively brought forth by both sides.)

@cwebber outstanding work, congratulations to all involved. By the way, would you happen to know what is the easiest way to get the latest version of the full spec in printable format?

@cwebber @mray TBF such nice narratives in specs are sort of rare.

@cwebber @mray I think this is by far the *nicest* W3C spec I’ve ever read

@cwebber It’s so exciting to see this take off! You get tons of credit for sticking to it & getting #ActivityPub out the door way back in the day when few others saw the vision. A warm hug to you! #SocialWebWG #W3CSpecification

@cwebber PS. I love the concept that Elon paid $44B to promote an alternative. Hahaha

of course they won't shut it down. how hard could it really be to keep geocities going anyway?

@cwebber there's a big opportunity for people to create browser tools and plugins to make QoL improvements

@cwebber sadly this does not seem to be enabled on some instances. Thank you for the tip, will check it out on another instance.

(edited: mastodon.social seems to have this enabled but it doesn't seem to work. The instance I was on does not have it enabled)

@cwebber I'm lost haha.

First, what am I posting exactly?
Second, why is it useful?

I understand it's just copying a link to a post on mastodon?

I saw this tip and I thought it was some clever joke... But seems like a real thing?

@cwebber Wow. I was following you anyway. Didn’t know you did ActivityPub. That’s awesome. Thanks for doing that!

@will ?

@cwebber @spritelyinst You might want to list these on https://www.fossjobs.net/ - maybe that way it'll reach some people outside the fediverse bubble.

@cwebber Even their name is disinformation. There's never any news about foxes.

Hack & Craft happening right now! https://fossandcrafts.org/hack-and-craft/

if you love email that's fine, just don't tell me I should love email

@cwebber I really don't know why they are making this as bland as possible, it makes me increasingly expect that it's an intentional sabotage somehow?

@cwebber This video is still a very good review of this art style, IMHO.

@cwebber Facebook's virtual reality gives me giant "second life, but boring and corporate" feels.

Haven't we tried all of this and it was boring?
