"They only think about one thing, and it's disgusting."

Someone, ideally everyone needs to pay tithes to them, they reason. And not for some ongoing service. Not because of any value they create, but because of value they hold. Value that can never be bought and paid off in full. A nation or king might collect tax, why not me they reason.
Starting my first day working on #mapeo with Awana Digital.
Gonna be responsible for making the p2p and data side of things reliable and to help develop and deploy features for folks in the field. 🥰
Here are the slides for my presentation. Gonna share the recording later this week.

@spiralganglion Hell yeah. Excited to see what you make with it. Back when WASM was still just coming out after ASM.js I did a deep dive to figure out how to do basic things like loops and if statements with WAT. I hadn't done any ASM before so it was a bit of a mindfuck.
@spiralganglion Are you aiming to write it at the WAT level or a hex editor? :o

I didn't expect "using a Torrenting client to seed US government scientific datasets because the policy settings are erasing years of research" on my 2025 bingo card but here we are.
You wouldn't download America's scientific research output would you?
EDIT: Several people have contacted me for the link.
