BIG MOOD

I'm interested in research on access to community services (food, healthcare, what else) by socio-economic status or community type (rural, sub-urban, urban, urban-low-income?). Thinking food deserts, medical deserts, this kind of thing.

@elyktrix "What's your coding folder called?"

~/projects, then directories for different areas where appropriate

@mterenzio I wonder how journalists are taught to find/curate information sources these days? There was a short window when blogging took off that News was paying attention

It seems that there is no good thing that our white capitalist society cannot turn to evil - take for example the [independent contractor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misclassification_of_employees_as_independent_contractors #work #capitalism

The hard part of blogging is not writing, it is sharing your post:

@zerok@chaos.social cool that you wrote webmeniond in Go - goldfrog is also written in Go, though I have not written the server side of webmentions yet.

Evidence of the first Webmention GoldFrog has sent for a post on this site.

Horst just recently implemented Webmentions on his site, so I'm happy to be able to give him a link!

The blogger's lament: staring at your incredibly clever post wondering why no one is linking to it

I've heard the "praising talent vs praising skill" argument before, but I never connected praising someone's "innate talent" with praising their "breeding", which of course sounds archaic (and probably racist) and completely invalidates the person's hard work and vision.

Now that I'm blogging more often, I often find myself uploading screenshots. MacOS' capabilities are fine, except that I don't really like uploading files with names like "Screen Shot 2020-02-10 at 10.38.34 PM".

Yesterday I asked:

Are there any #macos screenshot utilities that will simply let me name the file before saving it? (My needs are simple, the OS’ own utility is quite sufficient except for the name thing)

My old Six Apart mate Simon Wistow mentioned Monosnap a free utility that does exactly that - lets me name the file before saving it.

(Conveniently, it also make recording gif screen captures stupid easy)
