#introductions
Hi all. I'm a master student of computer science and deeply interested in mathematical logic, category theory and functional programming. At the moment i am looking for a programming project to participate in. Possibly #Haskell, #Lisp. Love #Emacs.
Hello everyone! Im new here!
There's a Richard Stallman message for every occasion.
Not everyone can self host software systems.
Not everyone wants to self host software systems.
Not everyone gives a shit about tech
Most people just want to go online, do their thing and move on with their day
If there is a mass exodus from GitHub / GitLab or others we people hosting our own infra need to be good about discovery, community building, community engagement and more.
We also need to figure out how to federate authn/authz. I'll skip over submitting small things if it means yet another account on yet another server run by yet another random.
Centralization isn't great but it does facilitate discovery, community and engagement.
We need to keep this at the back of our mind.
If you want to see federation support in #gitea #gogs and #gitlab please upvote and comment on https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1612 https://github.com/gogs/gogs/issues/4437 and https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/4517 to bring them to the attention of core developers #github #gitlab #git #gitea #gogs #microsoft
Can we get NPM packages hosted on GitHub flagged as security risks?
So, who has started working on an #ActivityPub #ActivityStreams federation protocol for #git pull requests, forking, issue tracking, identity/membership/permissions, following, etc?

In which I argue that maybe we would be better off without a presidency: https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2018/05/30/how-survive-trump-end-cult-presidency
Y'all, I gotta take a minute to brag about my city, nestled deep in the conservative south of the US. We just elected the most progressive mayor and county commission in history. The entire election had a very strong progressive outcome, with all but one of the candidates endorsed by our local progressive activism organisation winning their respective races.
So proud of my hometown, and so excited for its future!!

What's your robot name?
First name = the contents of your SSH private key
Last name = your SSH keyphrase
Somehow didn't see this until now. Lil dude has a point.
There ought to be a fund to help libre software and platforms advertise. We aren't going to get the world computing freely and privately if nobody knows it is possible
Why get reamed by a big bank when there are credit unions?
"Your Honor, years ago I recognized my kinship with all living beings, and I made up my mind then that I was not one bit better than the meanest on earth. I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; and while there is a criminal element, I am of it; and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free." - Eugene V. Debs
The #SocialCoop domain almost expired but is now renewed and we should be federating again!
Trying to ditch #Atom and adopt #Vim (#Neovim to be precise.)
I'm using #vim-plug and a few different plugins I've found to try and get a similar setup to what I had in Atom, but honestly feel a little lost and somewhat like I'm in over my head.
Anyone have some good resources for editor migrants like me? Anything that will help the transition is very welcome!
Not ready to make this a formal proposal but wherever practicable social.coop should use cooperative and/or FLOSS tools.

F-Droid is now on Mastodon as well!
