This just has to be the dumbest sh*t I ever read in my life:
1. Access to computers should be unlimited and total.
2. All information should be free.
3. Mistrust authority – promote decentralization.
4. Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not their degree, age, race, or position.
5. You can create art and beauty on a computer.
6. Computers can change your life for the better.

Is anybody else wary/reluctant about assigning copyrights to fsf or apache etc?
If the code is already licensed then what is the problem?
We love freedom 1, the freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish. Access to the source code is a precondition for this. Boost this post to share this freedom! Read more at https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html
It's the little stuff that counts.

I'm interested in hacking on tb myself...
watching hundred rabbits, a whole two people, speedrun an alternate-history timeline re-implementation of everything that was close to good about my first 10 years of computers really puts into perspective how wasteful and inefficient the industry is
they've accomplished 90% of the utility in 1% of the time and lines of code
there's something significant being demonstrated in the uxn space and it's way way bigger than two kids on a boat making weird retro styled software
Probably an easy problem for expert #golang programmers:
I get circular import errors in this project:
Continued:
One last thing -- I think Go does a better job than Java at the whole run anywhere thing. I think Sun completely mismanaged Java.
There are more "famous" people on Tw*tter, but the experience here is so much lighter and faster and more enjoyable.
I like OSes, compilers, etc...
And making stupid comments about other peoples toots.
For the sake of completeness, I hate anything I can't recompile.
What's the difference between #MauiShell and Cutefish?
