[kevinmarks] well the Times has a series of checks called editors to make sure neonazis and perverts don't get to publish articles and an HR department to make sure they don't stay employed

note: public domain content is stuff you can remix into your own blog posts!

on another note, I'm wondering about the etiquette of checking in passed-away friends at venues when they're mentioned in a speech or otherwise called out / recognized

e.g. Lessig mentioned/credited aaronsw in his talk: https://twitter.com/openlibrary/status/1088931805036654592

@openlibrary
