Though I didn't know it at the time, Jan 29, 2020 was my last day at #BoingBoing; as it happens, that was nearly exactly 19 years after my *first* day at Boing Boing. 1/ William Blake's watercolor of Cerebrus, the three-headed hel

Though it was a tough decision, it was the right one, and while I'm no longer helping to write the site, I'm still an ardent reader, a co-owner, and a well-wisher.

I started writing Boing Boing at the age of 30. When I stopped, I was 49. That's a lot of living. 3/

#Pluralistic is my mutli-channel publishing effort - a project to push the limits of #POSSE (post own site, share everywhere) that allows me to maintain control over my work while still meeting my audience where they are, on platforms whose scale makes them hard to rely on.

Every day, I write 1-5 essays and syndicate them over Twitter, Tumblr, Mastodon and email, with the canonical link at pluralistic.net, a CC-BY licensed Wordpress site with no tracking, data-collection or ads.

Now, I've added another channel: @Medium, where I'm part of a group of paid writers who contribute a mix of original material that's exclusive to the platform and syndicated material from elsewhere.

Even though I haven't been a big fan of Twitter threads so far, a lot of people I know have made 100-tweet threads for @threadapalooza so I thought I'll give it a try as well. I will start with #APIs and hopefully end up connecting them with the #FutureOfWork. Let's go ...

🧵⬇️
First of all, when I talk about #APIs, I mean HTTP-based interfaces connecting apps and backend servers as well as different services with each other. For now, the technical details, such as whether they use REST, GraphQL, gRPC etc., shall not matter. (1/100)
When humans interact with computers they require a user interface (UI), and when machines interact with each other they need application programming interfaces (APIs). At the end of the day, however, these have to be implemented by humans. Good #APIDesign considers both. (2/100)

1º DE JANEIRO, UM DIA MUITO ESPECIAL - Há um ano, tive a grande honra de assumir o Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia, Inovações e Comunicações #MCTIC, juntamente com o time de Ministros do Governo Jair Bolsonaro.
Ao reconhecer a importância da Ciência e da Tecnologia no desenvolvimento de países como Israel, Japão e Coréia do Sul, o Presidente Bolsonaro sempre colocou a reflexão: "Olhem o que eles não têm e vejam o que eles são. Agora, olhem o que nós temos, e vejam o que não somos".
Posso dizer com muito orgulho que toda a equipe do @MCTIC, em 2019,
trabalhou arduamente, dividindo o seu tempo entre: 1. Definir Politicas
2. Criar e executar projetos
3. Arrumar a casa, reestruturando a organização e processos para otimizar custos e resultados na direção da

Currently teaching an online course thru WordPress. This morning at 7:52, I received an email from a learner that the course site was down.

Fortunately, WP is only displaying what I already have in @getgrav on a different url.
By 8:10 am I had sent the url to my own site where the identical content lives. #POSSE (Publish on your Own Site and Syndicate Elsewhere) #ftw
used downfor.io to confirm that the course site was actually unavailable for everyone.
