CRDT "Google Docs"-style collaborative editing makes no fucking sense for anything that compiles. You wouldn't push breaking changes via version control, why type on top of each other and break things?

If people insist, then these editors should put mutex locks on the currently edited scope which only let one person actually insert text there at a time. Maybe allow others to delete on a separate line from the one being edited, but none of this weird crap where everyone does it at once. Anything but this pure collaborative textpad with syntax highlighting hack.

Today I learned that the student body of Evergreen State College has voted to divest from Israel twice. Neither time did it work.

Five minutes later I learned Harvey Weinstein's convictions were vacated.

Legalistic action is so worthless. Direct action gets the goods.

unsuspecting coworker: why is goto bad
me: well, let me tell you about Edsger Dijkstra's 1968 letter, "Go To Statement Considered Harmful" and how it was both correct and helped make "X Considered Harmful" a meme to this day

There's a little-advertised "opt out" bridge just appeared between the Fediverse and Twitter founder Dorsey's new social network.

Doing this as opt out is a pretty immoral thing to do. It's unclear how legal an opt-out bridge is in some countries. The person who runs the bridge is using these domains:

snarfed.org
brid.gy

Server admins may want to defederate these domains to prevent their members being bridged without their knowledge or permission.

fediblock, woem.men 

Gonna defederate from woem.men and lewd.lgbt (which seems to be offline anyway) on Sunday, 14:00 UTC+1.

Reason: admin interacts with eris, a known serial harasser.
