Persistence Is Key

It really is, even if you still fail some of the time (or most of the time). Keeping at something is often worth it, if it is something important and/or good. I cannot say what all I am referring to in my own life with this, but some I can share. For the past four weekends I have been streaming gameplay on Twitch. Yeah, that's not very impressive is it, but that's the point I'm making. Almost nobody shows watches, but I keep doing it because only by doing it can people join in. Plus it is a fun experience to have.
I could probably give more examples than that, and you could probably give even more. No matter the story or the source though, it is still true that some things are worth the effort, so invest it.

Nothing Much

Really, nothing much has happened this week and less has crossed my mind to share. Maybe that is a disappointment in some way, but it happens. Best thing to do is just continue on, hopefully to something worth sharing.

Even One Life

For anyone that thinks one life may not mean much, for any reason, remember the Ides of March. A long time ago, but not long enough to forget, one man's death changed the world in ways that can never be fully counted and never undone.
The early end of one life changed the world for thousands of years, so imagine what living a full life can do today.

Quick Recap

A couple weeks ago I talked about how the push for Title II is inconsistent with the principals of Net Neutrality. Now there is a good chance that is what we are going to have, so let's consider how we got it. The plan the FCC put together was written and voted on without any public knowledge, and even following the vote has not been released for anyone to review (not yet at least). On its own, this should have caused people to be in an uproar before the vote, but there is more. The plan was written by and voted on by a group who will directly benefit from it, like someone giving themselves a promotion, by giving them new powers over what has been a free system. Powers that have very few checks on them, because the FCC is a regulatory body and these are its rules, as opposed to laws which are addressed in public courts where parties have guaranteed rights.
Net Neutrality did not win with the vote. Government control did.
