More seriously, the whole approach is Platonic. The Good is some perfection that we compare imperfect concretes to. Concretes are good insofar as they resemble this perfection. But whereas Plato saw the Good as an other-worldly abstractions, religionists see it as an other-worldly concrete. This approach defines out of existence an Aristotelian approach, where the good is not some abstract perfection, but an abstract standard we use to guide us in the achievement of a rational ultimate value. That's the approach I take here: earthlyidealism.com/p/solvin…

Twitter is shutting down our integration. They did not provide a schedule (or even working links to more info). I’m working on the Mastodon replacement now: github.com/lobsters/lobsters… You should immediately switch to following botsin.space/@lobsters to continue reading.

Today is a really good day to join #Mastodon and use one of the remaining free tools that help you copy over the list of people you follow. Because tomorrow all those tools die.
Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

Just hearing about this today. If you do use Twitter as your primary MetaCPAN login, now would be a good time to add another method to that list.
Replying to @markjgardner
@metacpan has one week to migrate and inform any users to use a different login method than @Twitter. If you use your Twitter account to log in there, help them along and switch it to the only other choices, @github or @Google.
