@Viss I don't understand, do not they have penalties on premature contract cancellation? That's something I always have when I get contracted by someone: they will have to pay the full job wether they want it or not after it is signed, if I don't deliver it on time I will have to pay them a penalty for the delay.

@Bec This is a good advice about life in general.
Anyway, since I was 2 I've been CEO of a company that produces nails, look at these cool pictures of nails we produce.
If you want to know more about nails call me and we'll discuss all the cool properties of nails.
Did you know that you can do a lot of things with nails apart from fixing your paintings on the wall?
Nails are amazing!

(I'm still waiting for this, this is cool; where's my nail CEO?)

@rastinza @yarmo good idea with the hashtags. Oh, I am not saying it is only for marginalized humans, but they were the ones who used it and filled it with life before the big migration started. And I am not saying it’s in the DNA of mastodon but a rather huge part of it. Since history is important to understand most things, I am just thinking that it should have a place in your story.

@youwouldknow Switch off your phone from time to time and get writing.
Luckily I have an office for that which makes it easy, I just put my phone in a drawer when I get in and start focusing on the work.

@yarmo @rastinza I understand that it might me a bit technical for new users. I just learned that hashtags are vital to find the groups and people which share your interests if you are not on a server that already is your interest. Again just ideas. Also, and I think that is a vital point though, is the heritage/history. Because mastodon was and still is a hub for marginalized humans who found a safe space here and populated the fediverse way before it was on the map for most. What do you think?

@apinae @yarmo I guess I might introduce hashtags as courses/themed clubs at which you attend, or even conferences since it's difficult to really create communities over hashtags which are widely used.
In mastodon you get a lot of marginalized groups that joined it because it offers the opportunity of staying in a more protected and closed space without harassments.
I don't think it is mainly for marginalized people, I for one am not one of them: I joined mastodon just because after a long while I wanted to try staying on a social network, it's my first real experience on a social network after Facebook many years ago...

@cyrilpedia @skepteis Unfortunately you'll get people who really need a job or who didn't know about this that will replace those guys and go work in a terrible environment.

@ansgar So, that's why that land was so fragmented in the past!

@apinae @yarmo Thank you, definitely expanding on places would be nice!
I'm not sure whether to include more technical mechanisms such as hashtags in the analogy, I just want people to get the gist of Mastodon so that people who migrated from Twitter understand that following everyone is not really the main focus.
I'll definitely explain all those things in the guide, but I'm not sure it would be appropriate to include it in this analogy. I'll give it a try!

@rastinza @yarmo I think it is a start with a good take. I would definitely expand on the different ‘places’ in terms of clubs, boroughs/districts/neighborhoods. Also private clubs are a thing. And the use/need of needs to be mentioned as well as ownership (majors?).

Trabajo por codio.

@mad77 @ChieseBrutte @itec Caspita ce ne vuole a capire che è una chiesa?
Cosa sono queste? Le chiese progettate dall'unione sovietica per convertire i cristiani al comunismo?

@jtr Can't you just as the RSS feed to your website?

@nicholasgao Hey Nicholas, what are you making with these Machine learning of chemical graphs?
Is it some kind of qsar?
