I got an email from GitHub today that said they are locking me out of my account due to a suspicious login.

Well I guess that’s one more closed, proprietary, centralized system that saved me the trouble of deleting my account 😁

Unix philosophy

Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
Write programs to work together.
Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface.

“The utopian, immanent, and continually frustrated goal of the modern state is to reduce the chaotic, disorderly, constantly changing social reality beneath it to something more closely resembling the administrative grid of its observations.”
― James C. Scott

Good warning for social.coop “Designed or planned social order is necessarily schematic; it always ignores essential features of any real, functioning social order ... the simplified rules animating plans for, say, a city, a village or a collective farm were inadequate as a set of instructions for creating a functional social order, The formal scheme was parasitic on informal processes that, alone, it could not create or maintain.”
― James C. Scott, Seeing Like a State

Anyone know if there is a Copyfair/Copyfarleft software license?

What are your thoughts on the Peer Production License?

@mayel I want to hug everyone on SocialCoop because you are so cool and I kinda want to help but I'm pretty happy with my instance and I'm not sure I can take more responsibilities beyond Tusky and I'm terrible sysadmin so I can only wish you all good luck!
