🔗 We Are All We Have via @dansinker #Politics

In the early days of Covid, when nobody knew anything—when we washed our mail, when everything seemed dangerous, when nothing was available—I made masks. Hundreds of them, a sewing machine permanent on the only table in our small house. I'd bag them and take them to friends and neighbors, tossing them onto their porches and stoops. Eventually, when I felt OK going into the post...

Such a great perspective by @ploum ... What do we really value in technology? It's time to stop equating success with billionaires and recognize the people who have devoted their lives to developing tech for the greater good. So many of the truly useful, globally beneficial tools have been created outside the USA. ploum.net/2026-01-22-why-no-eu

Idea: "The unbillionaires list", to promote contributors to the common.

A collaborative website that lists people who created something useful to millions but purposedly choose to put in in the common and didn’t earn money directly from it (or not as much as expected)
