Electronic voting is a bad idea because you can't both know where an electron is on the issues or who it voted for at the same time.

Maybe the biggest change about cloud is that it defacto gives developers purchasing authority. Weirdly, for all 3 AWS accounts I've had access to the org had contempt for me asking if it was my job to save money. Weird, pre-cloud, asking for tools was greeted with comptempt. https://x.com/FriendsCallMeJW/status/1202593160444174337

So recently I learn that terminals (console windows for command line apps) have cross compat problems worse than html browsers. What is the "chrome" of terminals & is there a version that works on windows? I just want byobu and nano over ssh to work correctly.

no generators: 2.8 s
