Thoughts on 3 months of #ObjectPascal #FreePascal usage (in #NeoVim):

- Easy to pick up and read
- Good libraries
- Generics
- No closures
- Binaries aren't small
- LSP (pasls) isn't complete, but better than nothing; #Treesitter + #Periscope really help
- Docs are frustrating
- Good forums/community
- Targets SO MANY platforms (#HaikuOS, 32-bit #DOS, #Amiga, #Z80, #baremetal)! More than Rust, Go
- A *lot* of historic books and projects

Would I use #Pascal again? Absolutely yes, without doubt.

#PanDDemiC in the spotlights! ✨

With now nearly a 💯 resources on our portal, we're highlighting some special ones! 🔦

🌟 #PERISCOPE Project: a finished #H2020 project with lots of publications, podcasts, courses and tools available on their website, like the #CovidAtlas on COVID impacts on health, economy and society.

Ce soir à #Lyon au #Périscope, l'association La Géothèque organise un café-géo sur les rivières urbaines, avec Marylise Cottet, chercheuse en géographie sociale de l’environnement au laboratoire Environnement, ville, société (UMR 5600 CNRS), et le photographe Pierre Suchet, qui met différentes rivières urbaines françaises à l’honneur dans son travail artistique.

@ppb1701 Someone brought this to my attention, apparently #MattWalsh did the same thing

social.librem.one/@jlcrawf/110

I didn't hear about it, so I assume there were issues. Granted, I'm expecting #TuckerCarlson's #Twitter show to net at least ten times #MattWalsh's audiences though, so we'll see.

I'm not sure if #Twitter is using their #Periscope backend for their Broadcasts feature, but I assume that they are. If so, that should isolate any issues they have to just the Broadcasts feature and not affect the rest of the service (similar to how #TruthSocial hosts their videos with #Rumble, so they handle all strain and not #TruthSocial itself).

Librem SocialJoshua Crawford (@jlcrawf@librem.one)@realcaseyrollins@social.freetalklive.com I think that he is looking at Matt Walsh doing the same thing and talking to Elon who wants twitter to move that direction.

I wish the app #periscope was still a thing. If you don’t know what it is, it was an app where you can pull up a map, and it would show you the hotspots of where people were submitting videos. It was a great app that let people have live access to social justice movementsor any kind of live event really. It was acquired by #Twitter in 2021 and discontinued. We need another app like this to replace #tiktok.

Musings on digital evolution…
A college #social network – for example, the original “The Facebook” – was a group of people, some of them friends. The social network didn’t make any money. People came to it for other forms of value. Other social networks appeared. Themes developed: this site is for pictures, this site is for 140 character “tweets.”

Then it became about making money.
They became a tool for gathering information that could be sold.
They became a place to sell advertising.
They became a way to sell goods and services.
They became the origin point for social change, for societal movements.
They became a way to influence the masses.

They became tools for manipulation, for money, for power.

It got ugly.

User bases started to decline.

“I’m leaving #MySpace.”
“I’m leaving #Facebook.”
“I’m leaving #Twitter.”

New social networks tried to compete.
#Snapchat.
#Vine.
#Periscope.
#Discord.
#TikTok.
Some survived, some died.

People wondered, “Is the #Internet ever going to be a place where good prevails? Or will it always be a place where the ugly and twisted grows and competes with the beautiful and kind?”

#Mastodon instances were born. Like Twitter, but not like Twitter.

When Twitter started to fall apart (too soon, as I write this, to tell its ultimate fate), Mastodon grew quickly.

People said, “This is better. People are nicer here.”

Maybe the Internet is about death and new birth, and not growth.

Maybe social networks don’t get better. Instead, they die, and are replaced by the newly born. Younger and stronger, the replacement versions bring improved characteristics, better traits.

We shall see. This history is still unfolding.
