It’s over. I’ve been writing FUD manually since the 60’s. But people fresh out of FB troll boot camp are already rolling it out 99% faster than me.

I’ve typed comments here on this site in Emacs using a Firefox extension. And often I do it manually since I don’t want to lose three paragraphs to the whims of the browser state. Not that it matters since I type such characters with my ke

You have to take a step back. The first part is not about writing prose. It is about consuming it. And all publishers who are mainstream and respectable use proper English symbols. Now they might use ASCII apostrophe instead of the recommen

I don’t use GitHub that much. I think the thing about “oh no you have centralized on GitHub” point is a bit exaggerated.[1] But generally, thinking beyond just pushing blobs to the Internet, “decentralization” as in software that lets you d
