I want an app like Strava but for housework rather than exercise.
Then I can enter "Spent 25 minutes vacuuming" and all my friends can give me kudos and thumbs ups.
The whole Open Game License thing is making me realize you can just put anything in that LICENSE.txt file so long as it looks like legalese and doesn't make anyone angry. Wizards got away with it for decades.

The company that owns Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) is planning to revoke the open license that has, since the year 2000, applied to a wide range of unofficial, commercial products that build on the mechanics of the game.

The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract.
If someone does not abide by the contract, then they are not covered by it.

Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.
