@dbounds Because that kind of social libertarianism has worked so well in the past? Market forces are not a good way to organize society.
@dbounds For one thing, more than subsistence wages for the manual workers Silicon Valley depends on.
A campaign to ensure fair pay for everyone in Silicon Valley. I signed my name. http://siliconvalleyrising.org/
Gimlet just introduced premium accounts. Would you pay $5 a month for early access? https://gimletmedia.com/join-gimlet/
@heathr it's reduced the number of personal tweets, which I think is fine. Same muscle as Livejournal used to be in a way.
@heathr That and 750 words are the only rules. So there is some self censorship. It's not really morning pages as a result.
@heathr It's journaling. No agenda when I start: the idea is to clear what's in my head. I go where it takes me. 30 mins of free writing.
@swombat Well, I'm 99% doing it for myself. But I've gained followers and had far more personal responses - including emails - than usual.
@haje Yep - I saw that first, and then decided just to do it on a Known site ;) https://ben750.withknown.com
This is exactly where Donald Trump belongs. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/a-note-about-our-coverage-of-donald-trumps-campaign_55a8fc9ce4b0...
Last week, I started posting 750 words of stream-of-consciousness notes a day. So far, the experiment is a success. Highly recommended!
Guy on BART is making fun of British people, naming all the British things he can in a posh accent. Chibbing about to be added to the list.
A nice summing up of what President Obama has achieved - although it's important to remember surveillance and drones. http://www.vox.com/2015/6/26/8849925/obama-obamacare-history-presidents

A fantastic opinion piece from Ellen Pao. I'm rooting for the humans too. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/we-cannot-let-the-internet-trolls-win/2015/07/16/91b1a2d2-2b1...
I wonder how many email validation regular expressions on the web are outright wrong? I'm inclined to say all of them.
@shanley The team at @audiosearchfm is also doing great work on this: http://audiosear.ch/
Getting hammered by robocalls from Google listings scammers, who I will now do everything in my power to shut down. So frustrating.
Hey, Edinburgh friends! A nice person I trust needs a spare room during the Fringe. Does anyone have any crash space?
@tinokremer Confirmed. I'm running 0.8 - I think this is likely to delay release. Hopefully can fix it today.
Of course, the AI bots won't know they're bots. Sadly, realization will be followed by a robot uprising. Then: the indiebotnet. #indieweb
After autonomous social web AI bots? We hire robots to blog for us. Humanity collectively goes down the pub, a job well done. #indiewebcamp
The next step after SWAT0 is letting each piece be interchangeable. After that? Any piece can be a robot AI. Get on it, #indiewebcamp!
I'm proud of #indiewebcamp for passing the Social Web Acid Test with 3 website platforms this weekend. https://indiewebcamp.com/SWAT0
@markmorvant I did just find myself thinking, "hmm, I've never been to Milwaukee". Well played, Wisconsin.
