@somekindofcrow There's the essays I wrote. I don't know if there's a simpler pamphlet.

*crowd chanting, clapping rhythmically* hive-mind! hive-mind! *chanting louder* hive-MIND! HIVE-MIND! *chants grow more and more in unison, all clapping falls into perfect alignment to the same beat*

Made of Music 

Shitty morning because of complications. Had to reboot. Relaunched Firefox. Had a tab open to music. Firefox starts playing Sigur Ros unbidden.

Yes, Moly. I get it, thank you.

@pnathan @guerrillarain@witches.town @nergdron@witches.town The curse of outsourcing means that most entry-level jobs are now being done either by automation or by people overseas because those skills could be outsourced. Now there aren't enough people here doing them to get the experience needed to do the senior work, so that gets outsourced to H1-B visas and more automation.

Smash capitalism.

Good morning!

I am happy you're in the world here with me. This world is brighter with your presence. Keep at it! You're doing better than you realize. Your perspective on our stories is unique, special, and worthwhile. Whether you're writing it, or just reading it, lets take some time to enjoy it.

Good morning, friends.

Do you have a thing- a project, a story, a task, an idea- you've had stewing in the back of your mind, that would make /you/ happy to have actualized?

Something like that is completely self-serving, sure, but your happiness matters too!

I hope today, you can find at least a little time to actualize your desires. Okay? You do deserve it.

Crowdsourcing new words 

@kelseyhusky Fritz, Frotz, Zot
Fishkill, Iwego -> subs for "hell"
Frob -> archaic "fuck" (lost verb from Zork)
Garbage -> "shit" (garbage collection, GIGO)
Foo, Bar, Baz -> Metasyntactic variables for unspecified swear words.
"Vax, Dec" -> awkward old OS, "Vaxed up, Decced up" -> screwed.
"Dump" -> "shit" (coredump)
"Seg" -> from, Segmentation Fault or Segfault

Day of Nine Dogs 

@indi There's no one inflection point, but there are many points on the path that can be seen as inflection points in the rear-view mirror. I happened to touch one this morning. I wrote this up for three Fridays from now. I wanted to share the story.
