<p>A more general explanation on the differences between generalists and |
|
specialists. </p> |
|
<p>Personal take: Go for a generalist.</p> |

|
<p>I guess this comes with no surprise.</p> |
|
<p>Also, there is something <em>really</em> wrong with pharma companies or with the |
|
current <em>business</em> model.</p> |

<h1 id="wash-your-lyrics"><a href="https://washyourlyrics.com/">Wash Your Lyrics</a></h1> |

<p>You know those posters about how to wash your hands? You know that some people |
|
are messing with them? Why not mess with your favourite song lyrics?</p> |

<h1 id="please-re-add-original-author-to-docs-and-license-1703"><a href="https://github.com/Guake/guake/issues/1703">Please re-add original author to docs and license #1703</a></h1> |
|
<p>Short take: The author of Guake, a terminal emulator, found out his name was |
|
removed from the project.</p> |
|
<p>It's weird that I'm, right now, working on a presentation about licenses and |
|
<em>all of them</em> say that Copyright <em>can't be removed</em>! On top of that, licenses |
|
and based on copyright and, thus, unless the author concedes the license of |
|
their copyright, no one can remove them from the copyright (well, maybe after |
|
75 or so years, IIRC).</p> |

|
<p>No, watching someone torture someone else won't make you a torturer, but will |
|
desensitize you about torture and normalize it. And you shouldn't.</p> |

|
<p>Once again, person gets "anonymized" data-set, manages to re-identify people. |
|
This part is so freaking common, companies (and government) that provide this |
|
kind of data should be sued, till we have some laws preventing companies to |
|
provide data in this way.</p> |
|
<p>But, instead, what we are getting is people trying to criminalize people |
|
re-identifying people form those datasets. And that's stupid.</p> |

<h1 id="netlify-still-connects-to-telemetry-server-when-user-does-not-consent-to-telemetry-739"><a href="https://github.com/netlify/cli/issues/739">netlify still connects to telemetry server when user does not consent to telemetry! #739</a></h1> |
|
<p>An issue on the Netlify CLI tool, which was (allegedly) sending telemetry |
|
information even when the user requested to not send telemetry.</p> |
|
<p>Now, while bugs are bugs and can happen, the discussion around it is quite |
|
interesting, as Netlify people basically claim that going with telemetry on is |
|
ok 'cause you accepted the terms of use of Netlify -- which, to me, sounds |
|
like one hell of an excuse to let telemetry on by default.</p> |

<p>Not that I get the Guix system yet, but I'm going to keep this around when I |

jump into it.</p> |

|
<p>Again, I'm not using C#, but I find it interesting that the language have all |
|
the tools to make a functional architecture in it.</p> |

|
<p>I'm already planning all my data to use UUIDs, but I guess a long post about |
|
why you should use can also convince you to start using them.</p> |
