Notes

The row of mergers and acquisitions in the gaming industry continues today with Sony buying Bungie for US$3.6. Bungie has published an FAQ answering some of the questions you might have if you’re playing Destiny or Destiny 2. In short, nothing is supposed to change (for now).

This time with a talk by Sameer Oak about a data caching framework he’s been working on.

A great explanation by examples of why you might want to consider making your servers reachable via IPv6! I didn’t have that topic even on my radar but now it definitely I is!

Since I’ve made my latests pen order, I cannot stop refreshing the tracker page. I really hope they have a cheap bandwidth plan otherwise I’ll have to apologise for the traffic 😁

It’s just sad whenever there is no new status update and still says “Item has been uploaded or label has been prepared.” 😫

Sounds like a nice event around how people on the IndieWeb are keeping track of their books! I probably won’t be able to be there for the whole event but I’ll try to at least be there… somehow 🙂

Can we ever stop being performance artists again on social media?

Nice article summarizing some of the recent jerk-boss incidents and the new awareness about proper workplace conduct.

I really have to resist getting a nice cover for my pocket notebook… I know I’ll eventually get one anyway but just not now. 😖

I will continue to remain on the Signal board, committed to helping manifest Signal’s mission from that role, and I will be transitioning out as CEO over the next month in order to focus on the candidate search. Brian Acton, who is also on the Signal Foundation board, has volunteered to serve as interim CEO during the search period.

A big “THANK YOU” for everything you and your team have achieved in the last years. Signal has grown into an essential part of how I communicate with others and the world would be definitely a worse place without it!

… I have one piece of advice I’d give to everyone: make your content additive, not negative.
