My web development journey:

1999: self-taught, hand-coded HTML 3 tables and exported slices from Photoshop (CSS? What's that?)

2007: fully XHTML-compliant hand-coded accessible, semantic HTML, CSS, progressive enhancement with jQuery

2008: *iOS happens*

2015: I'll just use an off-the-shelf Wordpress template

2020: a github pages site will be fine, right?

2024: fuck it, here's a link to a gist

I don't think it's a good feature of Mastodon polls that you can't see the results unless you vote.

Not every poll can be meaningfully answered by everyone who'd be interested in the result. For most of the polls I create I have to waste an option on a "see results" choice. For polls that don't include that option, I bet a lot of folks just vote randomly so they can see the current state.

Huh, apparently IBM found a bug in GPL that they're actively exploiting: mastodon.social/@mcc/110726395

tl;dr; they plan to make Red Hat closed source by making access to the source code available only to paid licensees, and revoking the license of anyone who redistributes the source.

So sure, you are technically free (as in freedom) to request the source code and publish your modified version. Once. Then you're cut off from upstream security updates forever.
