Thanks to this tip I just found out Datasette gets a mention in this academic paper! "What Else Is New? Open Data Users Need to Know What’s Changed" computer.org/csdl/magazine/…

Well worth searching your GitHub URL with Google Scholar. E.g. scholar.google.com/scholar?q=gith… Great way to find out if your code has made it into any academic publications.

People screaming as someone fucked up their OSS code on purpose. If only there was some way AWS could have, you know, pinned a specific version of a package for cdk... Oh wait there was.

It’s true that the Web 2.0 we wanted (API-centric, 3rd-party-client-friendly) is not the Web 2.0 we got (piles of teetering, centralized XMLHttpRequest). But if you don’t understand why that happened, then it’s absolutely going to happen again.

How can we even start talking about supply chain security and sustainability if a maintainer publishing a bad npm package version breaks everyone instantly? Stable, deterministic pinning is table stakes. theverge.com/2022/1/9/22874…

Nope. Absolutely, completely, incorrect. Total nonsense. OSS maintainers don't owe you anything. Says so right on the license. If you can't read, maybe stay off the internet.

Often OSS developers make the world keep the lights on but aren't compensated for their time. Marak was struggling, asked help. Got nothing. In protest, removed his code and github suspended his account for removing something he owned the rights to.

People think decentralization is some magic that solves all problems, when in reality most people have opted into using centralized systems without even realizing it because they prefer convenience over autonomy.

This is one of the most important aspects of Web 2.0 that web3 advocates have tried to retcon. That generation also started with optimistic creators talking about decentralized, user-owned, open protocols (open standards, even!) that would empower people. Guess how it played out.

People seem to be redefining Web 2.0 as Facebook, etc, that own data, but Web 2.0 at the time was platforms like WordPress, Odeo, Six Apart, Flickr, Technorati, and del.icio.us that had open data and interoperated. flickr.com/photos/ross/49… twitter.com/brian_armstron…

Getting more messages along the lines of "I like my company, they treat me well, but I got an offer with a 50-200% pay increase as a sr software engineer. I'd feel guilty leaving." You now know your market value. You can offer them to stay for XX% less than this value.

The % discount will vary on things like the mission, your career prospects etc. You could say “I’m fine taking a 30% cut from my market value: but not more.” It can be negotiation grounds for equity & others. No one benefits from you keeping your market value a secret.
