Folks, please. Stop assuming that it's okay to introduce advanced features to Linux desktops that a normal user won't understand because "only geeks use Linux anyway". Believe it or not, even within the "geeks", there will be those who don't understand these concepts because they were simply never interested in them, and are therefore completely excluded.

Be inclusive. Design software that is simple, easy, and intuitive to use. Software that doesn't require a PhD to know how to use it.

I just learned that there's an organization called "Jews for Jesus" which was a real eye opener. Now I get why everyone was always so upset when I'd chant "Juice. for. Jesus!" before swigging that tiny plastic cup of vaguely grape liquid at Communion.

I never notice just how much of social media is made up of images until I'm on really slow internet and just have empty spaces where the images should be.

* Source text instead of code
* Problems instead of bugs
* Say instead of print

I'm sure I'll come across more, but even changing how we talk about code relieves so much cognitive load.

... and in news that's not news to us, tech journalists still don't understand the first thing about what Mastodon is and isn't ;)

"Mastodon, the federated social networking service that allows users to create their own private networks..."

@alexandra I remember seeing a video, once, about a MtF surgery and at one point, they're showing the operation, and one minute the nipples are uncensored, and at some arbitrary interval, they become censored for the rest of the video.

Very weird that we have such a closed mind about basic human body parts.

So I'm reading through the "Writing in Inform" book, and I'm like "Yeah we should have more writers creating programming languages."
