It's always kind of disturbing to be part of something for years and then be discovered by the mainstream who assumes the thing had only just begun at that moment of discovery and rewrites history to be around a single piece of software, service or personality instead of the whole team effort that took years to develop across multiple different systems, protocols, and communities.
It's a good lesson in asking questions and not just immediately accepting what you are told as the simple reality of things.

@atheism if only somebody had written something about the insurmountable flaws of the human psyche
@atheism Yes, atheists are known for staring into the #sky with wonder and admiration. That’s why the first #astronomers who invented the lunisolar calendar were atheists #inspirational #einstein #everyoneclapped
@atheism the yin, and the yang
@atheism it is the duality of the Greater Man - the premise that if one invented birth and life, then, by necessity, he must have also invented death
@atheism oddly enough, Latin American communities were practicing ritual human sacrifice well into the sixteenth century, until they were conquered by European Christian civilization

I suppose it's time for an #introduction! I'm Matt (he/him). I'm a postulant to the priesthood in the #Episcopal Church, currently pursuing my MDiv.
In past lives I've been a #MusicJournalist, professional #barista, and #IndieFolk #BassGuitarist. I've got a longstanding interest in #zen. I spent some time in tech, primarily in marketing and community management. I'm politically #progressive, #LGBTQ affirming (and bi), and kind of a wife guy. I was and am still active on #WAT and #WCT.

#Popper's rather nice "swamp" metaphor: "Science does not rest upon solid bedrock. The bold structure of its theories rises, as it were, above a swamp. It is like a building erected on piles. The piles are driven down from above into the swamp, but not down to any natural or 'given' base; and if we stop driving the piles deeper, it is not because we have reached firm ground. We simply stop when we are satisfied that the piles are firm enough to carry the structure, at least for the time being."

Anyone aware of any data consistency literature for #mastodon. I'm curious to see if a lot of the issues I've seen with other apps is because of poor client caching strategies or it's something more of a headache.

@Xeraser love the three-dimension shading on this. Wish I could draw that nice. Poast tutorial?
