Disclaimer: These low-effort ChatGPT summeries, because I'm tired. Almost posted without them, but I think readers will appreciate the context without having to click through. I encourage you to do so if you're interested in the details, particularly for Local-first Software. 1. Handmade Network: Values creating software that works with computers, rather than against them, and prioritizes the needs of the user over those of the programmer. Believes that the current state of software is terrible and that the software development community is responsible for this through thoughtless behavior, such as ignoring hardware and putting their desires above the user's. The Handmade idea is about reinventing wheels, looking under the hood, and building software that is better than what currently exists. They value curiosity and an open mind over formal education or experience. 2. Local-first Software: Values software that prioritizes both collaboration and ownership for users. They argue that cloud apps centralize data storage on servers, which takes away ownership and agency from users. Local-first software, on the other hand, enables users to work offline, collaborate across multiple devices, and have greater control over their data while improving security, privacy, and long-term preservation. Suggests Conflict-free Replicated Data Types (CRDTs) as a potential foundational technology for realizing local-first software, and they have developed prototypes to test the viability of CRDTs in practice. For my own part, idk, I like Scheme and Smalltalk and the post-RMS GNU foundation projects. Copy-left has been a really fascinating movement that I wouldn't have expected to become as popular as it has. I like the suckless philosophy, but wish they weren't associated with nazis^Wasshats[3] and right-wingers like FRIGN (Laslo Hunhold) and Luke Smith. All the Plan9 and formal verification nerds I've met have been cool folks. 1: https://handmade.network/manifesto https://handmade.network/manifesto 2: https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ 3: https://lobste.rs/s/qjuqpi/how_you_respond_security_researchers#c_v2zswt https://lobste.rs/s/qjuqpi/how_you_respond_security_research...
