    @jordigh Painstakingly. :-)

    I wasn't aware of it either. Extra fun added when VBA most likely has IEE 754 floats rather than "[modified IEEE 754 of 1985]" floats.

    Whoa, I'm used to numerical error, a fact of life. But I wasn't aware that Excel used a different kind of float than IEEE 754 floats. How is that code even written internally?

    > i personally have never used these accounts for block circumvention

    You mean deliberately. But are you sure? Surely you are following people on one instance that you wouldn't be able to follow from another?

    I mean, I was suspended for block circumvention without knowing that I was doing it. I thought I was just routing around software deficiencies.

    @codewiz @maiyannah IRC isn't an open federation, it is a federation between trusted servers. You can't connect to FreeNode with your EFNet identity.

    @codewiz @maiyannah Slack nailed identity? You have a new one for each community, and in tighter communities you even have to tie each identity to a different mail address.

    Centralization makes points #2 and #3 easy.

    If you defederate and make registration invite-only, you have solved abuse exactly the way Slack did.

    #5 is a problem when self-hosting on a phone, I'm aware. Easy and secure backups is a hard #userops problem.

    Centralization making everything easy doesn't mean we shouldn't work on solving decentralization and ultimately p2p.

    @href @maiyannah No, I don't mean generic web crawling. Until now I had just assumed that the API was a later thought and that the service had had to do FOAF crawling to find instances originally.

    @maiyannah @codewiz Also, the law of getting what you measure only matters if a significant amount of the measured people care about the measurement. That is not the case here, it's just a handful of admins and fediverse nerds who care.

    @codewiz @maiyannah It's not meaningless. Large silos have been a problem with the Fediverse traditionally, and lots of people running their own small instances is the model that a lot of us believe will give the network at large better longevity.

    The next step is to make it so easy to become a node in the network, that everyone might host themselves on a phone. SSB-style. That would also reduce the trust-your-admin issue and overeager site blocking issues.

    @href @maiyannah Ok, so it doesn't spider anything beyond what that API offers?

    @quad @kurisu It means they like you.

    Also, it's always good to underpromise and overdeliver.
