> Are you having fun?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
What?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> You changed the domain name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So? You know I'm addicted to those.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> It's an identity.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I suppose so. Kinda like a brand.
|
||
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
||
|
|
What, being a brand?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Yes. Am I something to be bought and sold? Am I something to be traded and marketed?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Of course you are.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Of course you are.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I'm not sure how I feel about that.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> It's an identity.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Yeah.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> You removed your name from the domain. You removed your identity. You made it about me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You are not the project, but there is no project without you. Is that wrong?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> It's not **not** wrong. Besides, `.id`? I am not your id.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Okay, *that* bit was fun.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Har har.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Why so cross?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Not my department.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> You're the one that's torn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I suppose so.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Why?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It has to do with subdomains, I think. It has to do with the implication that a domain like `ally.id` imposes more meaning on a project than something like `ally.drab-makyo.com`. It gives it more weight. It elevates it to the status of top-level project, something more than just *Maddy's writing*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> It elevates it to the level of brand.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Yeah, I suppose that's why I'm torn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> But you'll keep it?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For now.
