Your script doesn't do the same thing as duplicity. Your script mirrors the local directory with your bucket. It loses all history. Duplicity does backups (ie with history) but not just that, it does differential backups to not upload

Yeah, so much progress can be done when you can overwork your employees to unsafe levels and treat them like dirt. What a fantastic company where you are paid less if you are black or a woman. If that's progress, I don't want any

So, if I want to be uncharitable, you have PDS servers which are basically web servers with a signed Atom feed, and "Big Graph Servers" which are basically search engines indexing only those servers and giving their own algorithms

stunnel is the tired version of inter-machines communication. It's a basic, raw socket between two processes, and all layers above must be reinvented again and again. Plan 9 with its protocol 9p is the wired version of inter-machines c

This is the recommended stuff as seen from on one single server. It doesn't represent one's experience. The whole point of Mastodon is to only get what you want, not the rest. It's easy to build your own network of sources. T

How is this a decent gesture ? Any employer with visibility and cash flow wants to hire engineers. Do you think employers are doing workers a favor and being so nice and humane when they go out of their way and give us poor peons a chance

No, indeed, it sounds more like "the Apple Review is random and unpredictable", which no one can account for.
