<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@profdc9" class="u-url mention">@<span>profdc9</span></a></span> I do, yeah! my personal view is that decreasing the emissions of aviation is properly done by a 9mm in the back of the head of every billionaire with a private jet. however, it is still true that engineering is always about tradeoffs (even when you&#39;re knowingly overengineering it!) and that seemingly reasonable people disagree where these tradeoffs should lie, like how I&#39;ve tried to illustrate above</p>

<p>Via <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://threads.net/@alexhcranz/" class="u-url mention">@<span>alexhcranz</span></a></span> @cranz.bsky.social I’m trying out OpenVibe which is a combo cross-poster (a la Croissant) but also a centralized timeline (a la Tapestry) but a slightly different approach than either app. iOS and Android.
