    @jeridansky @cascadepbs @BakerRL75 @leapingwoman @wendinoakland Some of the organizing of REI members to vote with the union was done right here on Mastodon (I'm sure lots of other places too but I heard about it right here from @Eliot_L and then voted according).

    @kfogel Would you accept "real number" or "ordinal" in #constructiveMathematics ? Although I suppose that might be too technical of an example; your examples are quite good.

    @kfogel Ah yes, in GitHub terms it is more like granting a user access to a repository, making a user an owner, etc, than a GitHub team. I can see why you are looking for a new term because I'm not sure what I'd call that either.

    @kfogel I could quibble about whether a sufficiently large Soulless Global MegaCorp is more like a service provider than it is like a small company, but in ways I can only partly articulate I'm inclined to buy your characterization of it as something sufficiently different that you'd confuse people by trying to use the same terminology.

    @kfogel And you are describing the situation where the team has a visible existence (similar to a user) in the system (for example be listed as the author of a post), I take it? That is, more than just permissions. The more I think about it the more I start thinking of examples: Facebook pages, GitHub teams (especially when a team is tagged as a requested reviewer). I don't remember seeing a name, but "first class teams"? "teams as entities"?

    @kfogel Or if you are talking about permissions specifically, Role Based Access Control (RBAC). I think being able to assign multiple roles to a user is part of RBAC, at least it is part of most RBAC systems I have worked with.

    @_elena @Sunny From a privacy point of view you are often best off with a web site rather than an app (using, say, a browser like Mull). Not trying to oversimplify a somewhat complicated situation, but it is something I am trying to figure out as I try to map out a future which is more based on F-Droid and the like than the more closed alternatives.

    @kfogel Ah yes, I hadn't quite thought of the cross language aspect. For example, because the corpus is trained on English it will have separate blue and green, and there might well be a word for grue on the boundary between them. This could be a perfectly stable situation if the target language combines two English words into one word (as many natural languages do in the grue example). (Disclaimers: not my field, not sure I've captured things like the N dimensions fully, etc).

    @kfogel Wouldn't such a situation be highly unstable, with almost every word very quickly undergoing semantic drift and other related linguistic phenomena? This happens all the time in any language, for example when words are too ambiguous for comfort.

    @tillshadeisgone Really interesting. Keep reading to the end if you want some details of what they are doing (including, to some extent, technical details). Whether we could do this here, worth thinking about but so many details (such as the existence of feeds) are different enough that it would require some pretty deep thinking about both software and cultural aspects.

    This one is at least a little bit of a trick question. The Fianna Fáil manifesto says "Decriminalise drug possession for personal use" (and has some additional language) but there have been several rounds of clarification since that came out to the effect that they are referring to cannabis here not decriminalizing all drugs.

    @coachtony As tempted as i am to pull-quote out the part about Mastodon, I'll be content with just saying there is a part about Mastodon and perhaps that will give people an incentive to read the whole piece.

    @tillshadeisgone The more I try to think of what (if anything) to say, the more I come back to "no, I don't get it either".

    @LaurensHof Not being on Bluesky I'm reluctant to draw too many conclusions about the labeling services shuttering, but this does strike me as a big story. Content moderation (including related topics) is pretty much the key part of making a social network function, and unless the pieces get picked up somehow (or already are) this could have knock-on effects down the road.

    @williampietri I mostly knew him from Square (when I worked there, before he caught his case of the bitcoins). Although it is hard to say for sure I wasn't missing something even then, it seemed better. For one thing I had a lot of respect for most of the executives he hired and he seemed to stay out of the way and let them do their jobs (as far as I could tell anyway).

    @clacke I'm taking all those as synonymous (or close enough for our purposes), yes.

    @clacke Is this from the era/culture of the Unix Hater's Handbook? Seems like it based on the attribution to Hal Abelson.

    @tillshadeisgone I don't have anything to add about what the procedures for maintaining that list are, or should be. What I find eye opening about this post is that there's a widespread assumption that people drop off at that list because there are too many choices. You point to another issue: people dropping off at that list because none of the choices appear to fit well enough.
