@ajroach42 One thought that came to mind when reading this again: Although the concepts where foreign, the explanation treats the reader as a grown up human that wants to use a tool. Not as a consumer of some show effect. Also compare the Jupiter ACE manual that explains Forth to the general populace.

@clacke @kaniini And XDA culture is everything I despise. Some people invest a lot of time (or not?) and then throw binaries in zips hosted on questoinable servers at you...

I need to learn more about #scuttlebutt

Dear followers,

does anyone of you own a Lemote Yeelong netbook and does not need it anymore? Mine has a dead battery and a replacement is impossible to find it seems.

I would love to using it again.

So I will aks you all: What's been a pice of nice source code you have read and would recommend it to others?

We should read more source code from other people that are actually a role model showing good skills, organisation and style.

So what would you recommend?

@lain why do people connect pleroma with 'gamergate'...? @eal

Every now and then I see the argument that people shut down their XMPP server because they communicate only with a handful of people over it.

This has been the main reason to keep my XMPP server as it is a great way to hook up all kinds of people to chat with me in real time through one of the most secure e2e encryption schemes we have available today.

2-3 people's chat less on the record is still a win imho.

Oh a gnu social client written in a memory safe and sane language: pleroma. Needs elixir, and based on phoenix something server.

Ok, let's have a look.

From the docs:" At this point, we should have Elixir, Erlang, Hex, and the Phoenix archive installed. We should also have PostgreSQL and node.js installed to build a default application."

AAAARGH. That's why we cannot have nice things...
