 minimal computing is perhaps best understood as a heuristic comprising four questions to determine what is, in fact, necessary and sufficient when developing a digital humanities project under constraint: 1) “what do we need?”; 2) “what do we have”; 3) “what must we prioritize?”; and 4) “what are we willing to give up?” http://digitalhumanities.org/dhq/vol/16/2/000646/000646.html @cblgh IMO the main issue with that article is that the equivalences take more than a grain of salt to be properly interpreted. Take the coal/driving equivalence: basically watching a video stream for a whole day is _less_ than a car roundtrip to next town over. A naive if slightly malicious newspaper title might say "Scientists discover that watching Netflix is better for the environment than even the shortest of daytrips!"

Development was rekindled, thanks to some patches from the https://eotl.supply collective lieu's customizability has been enhanced, making deployment for other collectives and projects a lot more feasible. and it's likely things are going to continue down this route for a bit :~ quote from @darius: "the hook is not, "it is decentralized", the hook is you will be happier here" currently live at https://newpublic.org/festival (scroll down for livestream)  https://www.unionofmusicians.org/justice-at-spotify 12

@cblgh Love this!! I think "What are we willing to give up?" is probably the hardest question beyond computing...
@cblgh "we have increasingly come to understand that GUIs hide the systems that drive that production, and by extension, the labor to maintain and sustain them."
