a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

plausible general principles governing valid agreements:

1. Valid consent requires a reasonable way of opting out.
2. Explicit dissent has precedence over alleged implicit consent.
3. An action can be taken as indicating agreement to some scheme only if one can be assumed to believe that if one did not take that action the scheme would not be imposed on the person.
4. Contractual obligation is mutual and conditional.

How does the relation between individuals and the state holds up against those principles?

1. No state has provided meaningful ways of opting out, means that do not require dissenters to assume large costs that the state has no independent right to impose.
2. All modern states in refusing to recognize explicit dissent render their relationships with the citizens non-voluntary.

This is a quick guide of the commands we use to sign someone's GPG key in a virtual key signing party.

Note: The steps cover only the technical aspects of signing someone's key. Before signing someone's key, you must verify their identity. This is usually done by showing government-issued ID and confirming the key's fingerprint

The commands will work for both GPG and GPG2.

I use Julian's key for the examples. His key id is 2AD3FAE3. You should substitute with the appropriate key id when running the commands.

Signing the key

1. List the keys currently in your keyring: gpg --list-keys.

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).
