What are the over/under odds this site survives the weekend? I'm sticking around to see how this plays out, but I'm also over here: @wolfman" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hachyderm.io/@wolfman

1/4 I'm VERY late at sharing, but I am officially a published author :) (thanks to @ingridsetz for translating my part into German). Results from the #climate #health & #population project (CHAP). My (English) book chapter will follow in the spring. oes.tuwien.ac.at/article/id/606/

@byronwolfman what's the new policy?

Quick Q in light of today's new birdsite policy: can you see this tweet?

Thank you friends for the confirmation! In that case I'm going to leave my profile alone unless it becomes a problem.

@notleora @richloyalty I'm side-stepping a lotttt of nuance, but the the short version is that it's easy to make a Twitter clone, but impossibly hard for it to survive the design and scale challenges of millions of users without the technology falling on its face.

@richloyalty I defer to my twin brother @byronwolfman

@notleora Oh yeah, modern wikis like Notion are very WYSIWYG, not like the wikis of old. I'd say definitely give it a look; it should take all of 2 minutes to decide if it will do what you need or not.

@byronwolfman Thank you, twin! I'm not averse to wikis, but I only made one once for an undergrad assignment and don't have time for a learning curve. Unless things have gotten less learny-curvy since then.

1/2 It has been 4 years since I've used webhosting/serving tools. Can anyone recommend something very easy for luddites to for markdown-y stuff? I'm working on a resource base that will not get super complex has a small intended audience who won't need to search for it.

@notleora You can get pretty far on GitHub pages + a markdown-to-HTML generator: * pages.github.com * gohugo.io * jekyllrb.com These won't have password protection though. notion.so/product is another good choice, but it's a wiki.

2/2 I'd rather avoid a wiki. Gitbooks is fine, but if something better exists, I'd be happy to know. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help :) Must be free. Password protection options a bonus.

@zero_chill_tea This only strengthens my belief that your kirby hat is flipping RAD.

Unrelatedly, but it's been zero days since I saw something behaving weirdly and wondered "how did this _every_ work."

Reminded of the time one of our services was stopped for maintenance and wouldn't start again. It'd been ages since it had been full stopped because it was usually restarted! Cold start had been quietly broken for ages. There's a DevOpsDays talk by @jasonious talking about it.

Twitter right now:

1/3 Saturday will be 3 years since my little brother Casey died due to substance abuse disorder. This year, I am making a donation to National Service Dogs Canada, so am inviting my Twitter friends to learn about the organisation & maybe even do the same! canadahelps.org/en/charities/n…

if you hate watching a billionaire destroy the place you live online, wait till you hear what they’re up to with planet earth

Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me): CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff. A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies. I know you didn't get that notice.

Here's a question: If their work is so important that you can't risk a potential strike of even a day; and you feel you have to invoke the notwithstanding clause - why are they being paid so little?

I think it’s time for this again.

If you're a company exec and have no idea how technology works, just say that...

@le_brown_agenda Rooting for you!
