  I’m genuinely worried it’s yet another deliberate denial of service against our ability to detect evil. I work extra hard to only pay attention to what is actually done that seems like it could stick.

  Mostly I trust that good people in positions of trust (e.g. ACLU or EFF) will call out when there’s an opportunity for mass mobilization to make a real difference.

  I couldn’t find the clip, but first thing that came to mind was the StarTalk Live with Buzz Aldrin and John Hodgman.

  Hodgman: “maybe they’ll find H 2 2 2 2 O!”

  My first full time job was for Ameristar Casino Council Bluffs. I can say this: see all that fancy stuff? They built it with your money. They don’t need more of it.

  Plagiarism should be part of the conversation here. Credit and context both matter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Raspberry Pi is now a public company⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How much stock ownership remains with the nonprofit Raspberry Pi Foundation? And will that be enough to hold off shareholder complaints that they aren’t being evil enough?

  Could be a MUSIC/SP reference. (No I don’t remember how to use it either. I had a letter-letter-number-number %nemomus@academic.nemostate.edu email in college though.)
