I may have gotten a little carried away with this project, but let me tell you, this has been the absolute most delightfully satisfying thing ever to knit while sitting in on awful Zoom meetings!

@dch Somehow the phrase, “Exhibit A” keeps coming to mind.
@Black_Flag @axeln @celeduc @cstross IFTAS has tracked many hundreds of these accounts being created, mastodon dot social is one of the most responsive at getting them removed. The state actor in question has been seen on over 180 servers in the past 60 days. Numerous servers have done nothing to remove these accounts or monitor new accounts. Accounts are still being created on open registration servers today.
Oh man, Andrew Garfield is such perfect casting

Linguists start compiling the first ever complete dictionary of ancient Celtic.
More than 1 000 words used as far back as 325BCE will be collected for insight into a past linguistic landscape.
The vast majority of the material has been lost in the mists of time. But the remnants of a language spoken in parts of the UK and Ireland 2 000 years ago are being collected.

Funny how at a conference about risk assessment seemingly less than 5% of attendees are wearing masks 😷
We’ve had a light snowfall for the last couple hours. Loving it. ❄️🥶

@andrewnez i think there's a slippage of terminology here too:
The core problem is the lack of a lockfile. Every other package manager figured this out decades ago: you declare loose constraints in a manifest, the resolver picks specific versions, and the lockfile records exactly what was chosen.
for one, the resolver is only as powerful as the constraints. if your constraints are limited to name and simple version matching, then a lockfile is indistinguishable from a manifest—we see this from pip freeze, which is actually quite notable for not being a lockfile.
@andrewnez python has per-platform and per-python-version constraints, for which you'll need something like pip install --report to get a "locked" experience. that feature was a generalization of my work here https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/8793 which was able to lazy-load python requirements upon execution.
the poetry package manager has a truly fascinating system where it resolves a dependency tree across several target platforms at once. it's able to do this though because python packaging protocols have had a lot of people caring about them for many years.
Thinking btrfs. Looks reasonable, default filesystem for Fedora adds a lot of credibility. Snapshots and compression are a must.

When I was still teaching, I taught the basics of AAVE grammar to my students who were getting degrees in order to teach English in high schools and middle schools. I didn't expect my white students to remember the rules, but I hope they learned enough to realize that their Black students spoke grammatically, just with a different grammar.
@notnorm ciao! dammi del tu per favore :D
