Hey, I remember this! Shame it never seemed to go anywhere. Though then again, the wiki's still up? :/

Here's another interesting book review. It's about the promise, and failure, of the Soviet Union in the 50's. :/

Hey, so I think I managed to optimize Agora so it should run pretty okay now. Low power computers will likely still have some trouble, but the rest should handle it okay. And it runs a LOT better in chrome or chomium then it does in firefox. Take a look and tell me how it works for you? XD

@Bookwitty Hey, you're mastodon instance is really out of date. Like, you/re on 1.4.4, and the current version is 2.1.0. :/
Now, witness the firepower of this FULLY ARMED AND OPERATIONAL fediverse.
The Ancients worshipped many strange and terrible gods.
The Eaten Mayor. The Hapless Enforcer. The Purple Entity. The Thief. Above all, the Flame-Haired Trickster.

The postal service illustrates good software interface design:
Senders only have to drop their message in any mailbox and can then walk away without a thought to whether the receiver moved or whether the message will be delivered by plane or by horseback.
Receivers only have to check their mailbox when they want to without a thought as to when the messages arrived, in what order, by what transportation method, by which delivery person, or from which point of origin.
Found a cool video - the history of the human race, illustrated as a map, with a little event log down below. Fascinating to watch.
Huh, so it turns out I was remembering something I'd already encountered: The Symphony of Science. Though that's more about philosophy than about teaching specific things - even this video about sound is pretty vague. Doesn't go into much detail on how sound actually works. :/

But you know, Antifa is bad because they wrecked some garbage cans.
Hey all, anyone know if reports federate yet? :/
Maybe even have various options, so you can choose how advanced you want your infodumps, how frequent, what subjects, etc. :/
...Huh. Heres an idea - bots that periodically post random infodumps from some source. Like some random scientific detail, or some curious bit of engineering, or something of the like. Better yet, it's be a bot that you can message, telling it you'd like to subscribe to such, and then it would periodically @ you with relevant posts... :/
please be kind to each other (if you can)
