This underlying problem needs to become a priority. Either pressuring #github to go free software or getting free software to go elsewhere.
Github becoming synonymous with open source just muddies free software waters more.
Free Software needs free tools.
Here's a powerful statement extracted from Rolling Stone Magazine from Tim Bergling (aka Avicii). May he be at peace.
“None of us today can fucking handle our emotions – most of us are running around being reactive,” he said.
because I couldn’t read my emotions the right way. The whole thing was about success for the sake of success. I wasn’t getting any happiness anymore.”
Thats deceptively impactful.

“Does free speech mean literally anyone can say anything at any time? Or is it actually more conducive to the free exchange of ideas if we create a platform where women and people of color can say what they want without thousands of people screaming, ‘Fuck you, light yourself on fire, I know where you live’? If your entire answer to that very difficult question is ‘Free speech,’ then, I’m sorry, that tells me that you’re not really paying attention.” —Reddit gen. counsel

I took a mental health day today and spent it in a salon getting trimmed, cut, and pampered.
This is truly something I wish I could do more of.
I also never thought having started off in the workforce as a construction and factory worker that i would progress to this level.
I want to take this opportunity to thank every mentor, and influencer who saw the potential in a driven geek finding his place in the world.
cheers everybody.
