Here’s a regular reminder to privileged white people that the mistakes and contradictions of oppressive regimes are not something to laugh at and not proof that they are wrong. -

or i guess i should say, there's a hard limit to how much they break down. some architectures are modular at very large scales. but in a normal computer program you can break down the execution flow into distinct parts and test them, so you can make at least some guarantees about what the program will and won't do, and you can explain why it does that (including, usually, what chain of humans made the decision to make it do that)

fedi needs lightweight servers that are easier to run, with fewer people on them that know each other better@ana @oliphant Is it a blind spot? It seems like something that's been discussed pretty extensively, both within the project and in the community around it.
