CrimethInc.: **We Will Remember Freedom : Why It Matters that Ursula K. Le Guin Was an Anarchist**
"I asked Ursula why I never heard her call herself an anarchist. She said she didn’t feel that she deserved to—she didn’t do enough. I asked if it was OK for us to do so. She said she’d be honored."
I hadn't realized Tim Berners-Lee's mom was also a computer scientist. Thank you internet! 😂 RIP Mary Lee Berners-Lee https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jan/23/mary-lee-berners-lee-obituary #maryleebernerslee

Hey Mastonauts! Le Guin's LEFT HAND OF DARKNESS is on Audible (US) for under $4.
Le Guin's dedication page in "The Dispossessed" speaks so much about that book, her ideals, and about the kinds of justice she imagined possible - it is dedicated to "the" partner, not "my" partner - removing the idea of property and ownership from love.
Quoting Henry Farrell: "There are a very few books that I’m simply not able to talk about coherently, since they’ve shaped me so deeply that I can’t think straight about them. The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed are among them." http://crookedtimber.org/2018/01/23/ursula-le-guin-has-died/
is a young person in your life at risk of exposure to ayn rand?
give them a copy of _the dispossessed_. you may save them years or an entire lifetime.
@brainwane argh, by "the repository that contains all my language's metadata" I mean "the repository that contains all the package universe metadata" - dependencies, new versions, maintainer information, etc.
@brainwane I would hope that a rubyist wouldn't find it too hard to extract dependency information from .opam (the ocaml package manager) files - we have nice library support for doing it in OCaml but that would have to be reinvented for that platform. Unfortunately opam is in the middle of a non-backward-compatible (but automatically translatable) change in the spec for dependency files, so it's a bit of a challenging time for an outsider to try to tackle work like that.
More generally, libraries.io seems to be solving (more nicely) a few of the problems that I tackled by watching the repository that contains all my language's metadata :D
tfw you're a maintainer of your language's package repository and suddenly you really can blame yourself for everything
