Holy hell did he snap

Before you opine on someone else's mental health, and especially before you claim that their beliefs and their behaviors reveal Issues They Need To Deal With, ask yourself:

1) Am I a mental health professional, with the training and expertise that carries?
2) Has this person explicitly requested that I offer my opinion?
3) Have I actually studied this person thoroughly enough to make an informed opinion?

If the answer to *even one* of those is "no", then Don't Do It!

I wrote a blog post about my trip to Holland and the IndieWebCamp Utrecht:

@jbob I'm excited about the FPGA work. Using FPGAs as general purpose computers are still inefficient power and area wise when compared to custom silicon implementing the same design. There are people working on open sourcing the design rules for silicon fabs. I'm hoping the FPGA work will be the rapid prototyping that can feed into completely open source silicon designs for mass production. What a wonderful ecosystem that could be.

I exported all my #Fedilab datas, uninstalled the Google Play app, reinstalled from @fdroidorg, imported my datas back and in a second all my accounts were back and perfectly working! That's amazing!,

Thank you a lot @tom79 to force me to switch, I also replaced many of my proprietary apps with FOSS alternatives and I'm fully satisfied! And thanks to #Fdroid community for this great tool!

#FOSSispoetry #FOSSdoesitbetter
