When a new BCP RFC comes out, it's a good time to stop what you're doing, look around a bit, and see if there's some work to do in your infrastructure. Today's special: TLS/DTLS! https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9325
Long thread/12
What if we brought those monsters out of retirement for one more job?
My proposal is simple: a two-year capital gains tax holiday on profits from unwinding any 21st century merger involving a firm with more than £10b in market cap: "Watch them do in months what decades of courtroom grinding couldn’t hope to accomplish."

https://file770.com/greg-bear-1951-2022/ very sad. I'm also a little creeped out that I mentioned him yesterday in a blog post about a tune I put out just last week.
#music #newmusic #musicproduction Track 36 of Saturday Sounds, "Hologram", is out in the wild! https://soundcloud.com/importantigravity/hologram-saturday-sounds-2022-036
#music track started. Many of the earlier Saturday Sounds were about learning things: compositional, music theory, production, mixing. These last few I think I'm just going to just get weird, throw things at the DAW and see what sticks. I've learned a lot in the last 10 months and I'm glad I've done this work. 5 tracks to go and it's time to just have some crazy fun with it!
We are extremely proud of the work accomplished at #W3C in the Social Web group, culminating in 2018 in the release of the #ActivityPub standard, a notable implementation of which is... #mastodon !
We are also humbled and inspired by the energy that we are seeing on the Fediverse, the good will, how constructive and helpful discourse embodies truly social interactions.

Got a surprise birthday gift over the weekend. This cute little drone. Flies pretty nicely and takes decent video and pictures too! 😎 😍 #drone #quadcopter #flying
So I used to post these to Twitter, so now they get posted here. Latest tune in my Saturday Sounds Project drops tomorrow, but you can listen a little early! https://soundcloud.com/importantigravity/the-city-and-the-stars-saturday-sounds-2022-035/s-MAV51R02HkM #music #soundcloud #newmusic
