My current push is bike infra for kids to get to school, parks, community centers and libraries. Roads aren't a safe for them and they can't drive themselves.

I am not THE libertarian to fully hold this argument and as others have mentioned there are libertarian arguments for universal healthcare, but I will present the best case I can from those I've heard be against it.

The primary case is the idea of negative rights vs positive rights. Where the idea that the state should protect you from others wanting limit your rights vs providing you the ability to do something.

So using the state to punish someone for who is trying to stop you from providing healthcare service is justified use of violence as it protects your negative rights and define and preserves you and the violators boundary. Whereas using state violence to force you to provide healthcare someone you don't want to would not as it violated your negative right.

This is primary argument against any positive right, is that since it requires a service to be fulfilled the state would be use violence (the basis of state power) to enforce it. Making it tantamount to slavery.

Now the reality of it though is that most libertarians do support this slavery at least in service of giving the state the monopoly on violence (police, military, etc) in order to protect their defined negative rights. And because of our current material abundance we are able to have a fractionalized slavery extracting wealth from people to small enough degree that most people don't find as aborrent full servitude of an individual.

No. I think age plays a factor into power dynamics (more time to accrue wealth and all), but not enough in our current life spans to be an issue.

Term limits though I support because the ability to manipulate the voting system for decades is far to enticing and creates perverse incentives.

It make sense if it were like the TSA to be honest, bring everything you need to vote or preregister for a faster experience. Would also help if was voting month(s) instead of day so people could comfortably vote.

Honestly Louis Rossmans experience as a small business owner living the real life Kafka novel in new Yorks legal system made me never want to live there.

This is something I've remember over hearing as well from a FOSS advocate as bit of complexity they deal with.

I mean the US healthcare market has huge amounts of regulatory and liceance capture that makes for free market healthcare impossible in the states. Its also, because of this subsidized a lot but practically forbidden to be efficient (because most of the industry is ran by for profit).

Kind of worst case of government stepping in only to prevent meaningful markets but not to support people in need (not to say Medicare and medicaid don't help some, they are the better example IMHO even if they pay out so bad most places practically refuse to take it).

Actually unless they made it working for the university its normal for students to retain their IP rights.

I have that now, its OK. But spammers cycle through numbers so quick that good amount get through

I don't know of good guide, I used the README on one of these for a personal server of mine.

My bet is it will work like their federated text prediction in gboard.

As a OpenSource app with no need for centralized server it would be great. I want that. As spyware configured out of my control absolutely not.

Gitlab's offerings are always better. There isn't a single feature that I use between the two that I don't prefer gitlab.

Gitlab is still a better step in the direction. You at least have a path to using FOSS instances.

Gitlab working on federation along with Forgejo is big step in the right direction.

Love your project! Have you looked into bridging to something like matrix from discord?

Multiform merge support, issues, wiki's, discussions. Its all of the other pieces of a software forge.

At least all non long travel stations for sure.

For real I've put in a fraction supporting OpenSource then I had if I had to buy unfree software and I've gotten way more out of it.

I see it as a difference between owning and renting.

Is narcissistic disorder a prereq to be a billionaire or is it just a common symptom of having too much wealth for some.

I mean I made be a novice on this but multi-state service in general sounds like a bad time. Isn't the accepted best practice for a micro service program stateless operations and one state at most per service?

I mean its true for anything beyond a single threaded monolith right? Otherwise you just get apps that prentend to be asynchronous waiting on locks so they act totally synchronousaly.
