Do you also have a website on neocities? can I visit it? :D

I can only speak for myself, but hope other Florencians might agree, that non-Florencians who wish to contribute their expertise should also post their ideas.

You mentioned wanting to wait for the full Digest episode, which is ready now. Would you be willing to share it?

@þerxh Sant-Enogat Thank you for commenting on the Abbavilla Digest post on Reddit. Would you be willing to share the episode on Talossa's social channels?

Many years ago when I was in college I was quite good at C+ and later Visual Basic. As a teen I was quite adept at Batch (MS-DOS) programming. I've also worked at times in website development back when you had to know HTML and CSS. These days, I could code if I so chose to, but I have other things to do :-)

Probably because I wasn't aware of its existence previously

Idk why this is being done on behalf of someone else but sure.

Actually, I've specifically stated fairly clear objections to this bill, and have suggested at least one pertinent amendment to improve it: the first sentence should be changed from "The Senäts shall have equal powers with the Cosa in respect of all proposed laws" to something like "The Senäts shall be subordinate to the Cosa, advising and offering suggestions." 

While currently there are only a few exceptions to the equality of the houses, this bill would change the situation so that there would be only a few exceptions to the Senäts' subordination to the Cosa.  The law should be honest, since otherwise we'll run into very practical problems in the future (since the law will clearly say one thing, yet in a practical sense will dictate the opposite).  Just as a matter of good legislative practice, that should be changed.

I'd also note that the bill's author and sponsor was unable to identify any "truly vital" legislation that would have been helped by this change.  Instead, the only bill offered as evidence that this change is necessary is the Public Process Act... which passed in an improved version after being rejected by the Senäts and after serving as an important election issue!  In other words, we just had a showcase of why the current system is a good idea.

The benefits on offer here are few indeed.  The main argument is actually an aesthetic one, but the real goal of abolishing the Senäts entirely.

I have experience with several different ones although I'm pretty rusty as I don't use them regularly, but I like to dabble!

• LISP
• Prolog
• Python
• Perl
• C/C++
• Java
• Javascript
• etc.
