Written a couple of years ago, but still highly relevant!

In the twenty-first century, it’s time for governments to step up and fund open source regularly and proactively rather than hoping that some physics contractor manages to craft a grant that sparks the next information revolution. Key digital infrastructure is reduced to lame pleas for sponsors or scraping together funding from disparate sources. It doesn’t have to be this way. **Digital infrastructure is infrastructure.** Let’s act like it.

@jbaty and moi seem to have the same compulsions about notes and journaling and have reached similar conclusions 😂

@carlana Also coming at learning #GoLang from #Python she’s written one of the best posts I’ve read explaining Go’s idiosyncracies

Yes, stuff has changed, but this is still a really good primer

#golang, #python

Binge reading @carlana ’s blog after finding her on the #FallThrough podcast. She’s my kind of person (Thoughts constantly grounded in reality)

I was just thinking of how to go about fixing my recurring checklist problem with #OrgMode when the universe gifts me Vineet’s post. Thank you Vineet! Big fan of all your posts! I learn a lot from them!

#English du jour

Roiling sea / Rolling boil

I always mix the two up!

This is basically my entire house. Because this is how I keep stuff.
I’ve honed it to a fine art.

Now I purposely first imagine where I would find a thing. Or where I’d go look for it. And *then* go put it there.

The mother curses me for doing this, while the wife, the blessed, saintly wife, indulges me (for better and for worse and all that) 😂

I learnt (and forgot) Z80 #assembly. It’s always fascinated me. Maybe someday I’ll start again with the 6502!
