Background
Substack is a platform where writers publish newsletters directly to subscribers, often in tech, politics, or culture. "Code + Conduct" is a Substack newsletter by an author writing about the intersection of software engineering, ethics, and community dynamics. This post appears to explore what binds people together in shared contexts — possibly in tech workplaces, open-source communities, or online spaces — and the unspoken norms, values, or infrastructure that enable cooperation. The title "The Things We Share" likely touches on concepts like digital commons, open-source software, shared protocols, or collective governance, which are central to ongoing debates about platform ownership, moderation, and community sustainability in tech.
