@AlanRalph Love this! Thanks for the share.

@jemostrom agreed! Open Access should be the norm. Which was ‘agreed’ upon already in 2016, but I wonder how much has changed...

@philipbrewer Love this particular old wives’ tale! 😃

@mjkaul great! It’s definitely a book I want to read soon. To be honest I didn’t know Ted Gioia, but this WP article made me very curious.

@manton @macgenie I would love to be able to make recommendations for the Discover section of micro.blog. It just screams for a bit of crowdsourcing! Plus: (more) human curation would only strengthen the (already great) community feeling of micro.blog. Just my 2 cents...

@danielpunkass Yes, bittergarnituur is traditionally served to go with a 'bitter', an alcoholic beverage flavoured with herbs, but nowadays its used more generally for all kinds of snacks and all kinds of drinks. Hope you're enjoying you stay in Amsterdam! And be sure to visit its little sister Utrecht some time, it's much quieter over here in terms of tourists, and just a 20 minute train ride away!

@adders great article, thanks for the link!

@khurtwilliams She definitely has beautiful 👀

@bitdepth Now we can start waiting for ‘A Breaking Bad Movie’ with Mr. Mike Ehrmantraut 😀

@manton thank you!

@hutaffe Somehow it did make it to my full consciousnes now...! And thanks for that project link, very telling.

@khurtwilliams Thanks!

@w3bk3rn3l Stunning!

@manton Did you get a chance to look into LinkedIn cross posting yet? It still seems broken? I just resubscribed from the crossposting plan to the hosted micro.blog plan, but proper crossposting and inclusion of several feeds is still a key feature for me.

@dancohen That’s the best tagline for a technology newsletter I’ve read in a while. Subscribed!

@Miraz Beautiful! The sound of geese always makes me a bit nostalgic. And I always wonder what on earth they are talking about?!

@dancohen Love this kind of research! Makes me wonder how this will influence future filmmaking.

@manton I just unsubscribed from the $2 cross posting plan, because cross posting to LinkedIn still seems broken (since their API and authentication process was updated?). Any chance that that will be fixed soon? That would help to resubscribe or even upgrade to the $5 plan...

@bitdepth That’s just great. Team USA totally deserved it though. And Rapinoe was the true heroine of the tournament, both in and outside of the game (almost hoping for some sort of aftermath at the White House).

@bitdepth Well that didn’t help, but thanks for the support 😉. Great jersey. What’s your connection with the Royal Dutch Football Association, if I may ask?

@jemostrom great shot!

@calumryan same here! An Indie Web Starter is what the world needs! 😉

@manton Great piece!! Looking forward to read the book! Or should we regard it as a manifesto?💪

@jemostrom They can be very aggressive this time of year! Beautiful creatures though. In the Netherlands we call them ‘Kievit’, as a nice example of an onomatopoeia. It’s funny how every language hears them making different sounds.

@jeff\_mcfadden Agreed! It’s amazing how compatible Stoicism is with modern (western) life and its Judeo Christian roots. More than Buddhism, although there are many parallels. Changed my life!
