Two different concepts.

You’re talking about work slowing because of increased overhead from more people needing to communicate and make decisions.

The OP is talking about the"bus factor". How many people can leave the project unexpectedly and still have the project survive. E.g. if only one person has access to merge changes, the bus factor is 1 regardless of how many people actively contribute.

Abortion should be legal in all cases

The thread replying to the parent comment is a good example of how restricting abortion access requires people to arbitrarily decide definitions of when a fetus “becomes human.”

It’s best to leave that decision up to the pregnant person in consultation with their medical providers.

but a fetus becomes a unique individual when there is clear, identifiable, brainwave activity.

If there’s no brainwave activity, it’s not a life, no matter how many weeks old pre-birth or how many years old after birth.

This is another arbitrary definition of personhood. That doesn’t mean it’s wrong. But there are other (equally arbitrary) definitions that are reasonable too. (And there are a bunch of unreasonable definitions, but we don’t need to go into those.)

I love the idea, but I don’t believe the timeline.

It’s hard to prove the blanket statement, “there are no good reasons to have a private jet.” But it’s easy to prove, “one overpaid person taking a private jet to commute 1000 miles is frivolous.”

I started using restic for backups.

Pro:

• Encryption
• Deduplication
• Flexible backup location
• Data integrity checks

Con:

• No good GUI

What if I like ellipses…

Under the bed

No. As a general rule with all software, you purchase a license to use the software, not the actual software itself. That being said, GOG and Itch.io can’t yank games that you’ve already downloaded. I don’t know if Steam does or not, but it probably can.

Yes. I’ve used it to batch convert PNG and jpg to webp.

Check out mogrify. I think it’s installed standard with ImageMagick, and it does wildcard conversions.

Do you have a write-up or anything if someone wanted to start building their own?

Sounds like a great design direction to me. I’m excited to see how it turns out.

Honestly, I figured it was one of those things people didn’t talk about because it was useless.

I assumed that was something everyone could do 🤯

Yeah, I’m wondering the same. Maybe it’s helpful for containerized apps or something?

Anyone else have any insight on this?

Entertain me!

A dot files repo for some basic config and an Ansible repo to stand everything up. This applies to both my Linux and MacOS machines.

All the people taking about their NixOS setups had me thinking of giving that a try, though.
