i license my code as MIT i think i landed on that because i liked the poetic nature of giving away my code for free under the screed of an institute i couldn't afford while reddit burns, let’s pay a tribute to Aaron Swartz, the brilliant co-founder that co-developed RSS, the technology that made reddit what it was and the technology that will power whatever lives on long after it is gone.

@tychi Wow, I had heard this guys name before but never really looked into him https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz His resume is insane, and it seems pretty clear he was the only one worth a shit at early Reddit. RIP @tychi@merveilles.town i don’t think i mentioned it here, but i’m giving a talk in august at https://outland.sh/ it is going to be 31 minutes of me raving about how paper has always been software and any interface-able technology is just an instrument for people to assume the role of being the computer. pianos are not computers, but pianists are computers. sheet music is software. stuff like that. officially have the physical copy of the computer platform i’m designing the thought is paper stuck around the multiverse as a context clue tooltip is usually enough but when not, maybe more paper would do it. todo list computing might scale vertically like shingles sheet music will scale horizontally for sure you can distribute work among people and come together cohesively. when the physical world fails, the qr code will allow for cheat codes for collaborating across space time. |
