#introduction

I am a programming simpleton. I babble a lot about #gopher lately, I am running #OpenBSD on most machines I own, I build #keyboards in my spare time and I have a fetish for niche programming languages.

I am happy to help you if I can. I leave you with the rest to figure it out...

@kensanata: I have found the interesting discussion about eternal messages in #scuttlebutt, inside the network: https://viewer.scuttlebot.io/%251N8HypnS7oTNJOL9x5yBcYFIINNao7Fpqps%2BiHNukN8%3D.sha256

Software only becomes 'enterprise grade' if, when its behavior is described to an outsider flatly and precisely, the outsider assumes the description is some kind of elaborate joke.

I have been trying to quote from the 'The future will be technical' Manifesto, but they are exceeding the char limit, so you will have to read for yourself. It's good for you. Promise!

.@mhall119 is developing an ethical alternative to #MeetUp called #GetTogether.

There's already a flagship site up and running:

https://gettogether.community/

The dev is working on #ActivityPub support and is requesting feedback on what more needs to be done:

Maybe #scuttlebutt does not scale up to the internet, but it looks like human scale and given the gossip nature and connecton modes one would probably not exceed following the dunbar number of people anyway?
