Entirely reasonable of Jock, after having encountered Nerd's magical ability to cause verbal sentience among forest creatures via tee pose (episode 100), to consider that the possibility that their God might be testing his willingness to sacrifice his own bodily well being and sanity on the altars of their mutual enrichment and a belief in Nerd's powers. Was it selfish of Nerd to trick his friend? Or is Nerd in actual fact a wizard? It's possible I might be over reading into things. 🤓😂

it's not generally known that the world wide web was my idea in the 1960s for 25 years I thought I would create worldwide hypertext but then another guy named berners-lee created his own version of worldwide hypertext which left out visible connection that other system caught on the great disappointment of my life what I called hypertext when I published the idea in 1965 was a deeper concept

the real problem is what we're layering the web on we shouldn't be doing the web over this kind of just simple file distribution system that works over TCP and you have to work really hard to put over anything else we should be putting the web over a distribution system that can deal with the distributed case that is offline first and uh this is are kind of like stats showing the usage of mobile apps versus uh the web and so on so this is a very real real thing

At the same time, computer scientists and engineers need to deliver the technological burden of proof that decentralized personal data networks can scale globally, and that they can provide people with a better experience than centralized platforms.

Shopping for kids can be difficult, whether they are three months or 13 years—and the reason is twofold. On the one hand, there are countless toys available. On the other, children’s interests can change on a dime. And, as a parent, you want something that keeps them engaged for more than 30 seconds. Ideally, you want a toy that will enrich and entertain them—and become a perennial favorite. Too much to ask? Well, to find out, we played hard with the newest toys on the market to bring you the 75 winners of our 2024 Parents Best Toys Awards.

If we can see how some of the basic assumptions that we bring to the development of computing technologies lead us away from improvement in our ability to solve problems collectively, we can reexamine those assumptions and chart a different course.

For me, it was always a way to build community at scale.

The web sits apart from the rest of technology; to me, it’s inherently more interesting. Silicon Valley’s origins (including the venture capital ecosystem) lie in defense technology. In contrast, the web was created in service of academic learning and mutual discovery, and both built and shared in a spirit of free and open access. Tim Berners-Lee, Robert Cailliau, and CERN did a wonderful thing by building a prototype and setting it free.

Progressive Web Apps (PWA) are a new trend in mobile application development that are rapidly gaining popularity due to their ability to mimic the experience of native mobile applications while running directly from a user's web browser. Comment Progressive Web Apps are built using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, but are optimised for smaller screens and limited internet connectivity. They are more reliable, engaging, and faster than traditional web apps and can work seamlessly on any device and platform.

Utopia is a content-centric web application platform. It leverages the file-system to provide a mapping between logical resources and files on disk.

This was all done after — sometimes considerably after — much better conceptions of what the web experience and powers should be like. It looks like “a hack that grew”, in part because most users and developers were happy with what it did do, and had no idea of what else it *should do* (and especially the larger destinies of computer media on world-wide networks).To try to answer the question, let me use “Licklider’s Vision” from the early 60s: “the destiny of computing is to become interactive intellectual amplifiers for all humanity pervasively networked worldwide”.This doesn’t work if you only try to imitate old media, and especially the difficult to compose and edit properties of old media.

Webpage Snapshots Zotero already saves webpage snapshots on news articles and other pages, and those now open automatically in the new reader as well, enabling you to annotate webpages as easily as PDFs.

A publishing platform to reimagine established relationships between reader, text, and author, and to fully utilize the affordances the web offers in the presentation of text. Contributors are asked to submit texts that might lend themselves well to non-linear readings, which are then re-interpreted into their own websites.

So, what can we do? In the short term, it’s very simple. If you care about the commons, you should put your work under a strong copyleft license like the AGPL. That way, we will get back to building that commons we lost because of web services. If someone ever complains that a web service broke because of your AGPL code, reply that the whole web service should be under the AGPL too.

In terms of defining the “open” in open web annotation, I tend to take a standards approach: the Hypothes.is tool is built upon, and our organization advocates for, open standards in web annotation.

Our talented website design team in Indianapolis has the skills and tools to ensure the visitor has the best experience on any device. Whether you need a complete new website design, update your current website or bug fix it, we can help.

Since it is well known that the Web is a huge garbage-bin, this information can be well unreliable, perhaps even invented.

Web programming is plumbing. It’s just ripping out old pipes and putting in new pipes. It’s a dirty, ugly job. The old pipes are covered in greasy grime and the new ones are cheap plastic that keeps breaking and nothing fits together like it is supposed to.

You need something that will help you show documents that will help you map to those understandings, those contexts that people bring to the information very quickly. And documents are also the way the internet works, right? You want to be able to use the sorts of affordances that the engineers understand. Rest APIs, JSON documents, cache control. Because those are things that engineers know that will let this stuff work fast. It will also let you hire people who know how the internet works and don't have to understand all the complex crazy stuff that we call children, heritage people do, they make it possible.

You may be able to feel it, too. “The air gets cool very quickly because there's no sunlight,” says Nye. "So wind stirs up—the cold air pushes the warm air adjacent to the path of totality and you get a breeze for those four minutes, 28 seconds, or three minutes, 18 seconds, depending where you are.

Personal Small Technology are everyday tools for everyday people. They are not tools for startups or enterprises. Easy to use Personal technology are everyday things that people use to improve the quality of their lives. As such, in addition to being functional, secure, and reliable, they must be convenient, easy to use, and inclusive. If possible, we should aim to make them delightful. Related aspects: inclusive Non-colonial Small technology is made by humans for humans. They are not built by designers and developers for users. They are not built by Western companies for people in African countries. If our tools specifically target a certain demographic, we must ensure that our development teams reflect that demographic. If not, we must ensure people from a different demographic can take what we make and specialise it for their needs. Related aspects: share alike, non-commercial, interoperable Private by default A tool respects your privacy only if it is private by default. Privacy is not an option. You do not opt into it. Privacy is the right to choose what you keep to yourself and what you share with others. “Private” (i.e., for you alone) is the default state of small technologies. From there, you can always choose who else you want to share things with. Related aspects: zero knowledge, peer to peer Zero knowledge Zero-knowledge tools have no knowledge of your data. They may store your data, but the people who make or host the tools cannot access your data if they wanted to. Examples of zero-knowledge designs are end-to-end encrypted systems where only you hold the secret key, and peer-to-peer systems where the data never touches the devices of the app maker or service provider (including combinations of end-to-end encrypted and peer-to-peer systems). Related aspects: private by default, peer to peer Peer to peer Peer-to-peer systems enable people to connect directly with one and another without a person (or more likely a corporation or a government) in the middle. They are the opposite of client/server systems, which are centralised (the servers are the centres). On peer to peer systems, your data – and the algorithms used to analyze and make use of your data – stay in spaces that you own and control. You do not have to beg some corporation to not abuse your data because they don’t have it to begin with. Related aspects: zero knowledge, private by default Share alike Most people’s eyes cloud over when technology licenses are mentioned but they’re crucial to protecting your freedom. Small Technology is licensed under Copyleft licenses. Copyleft licenses stipulate that if you benefit from technology that has been put into the commons, you must share back (“share alike”) any improvements, changes, or additions you make. If you think about it, it’s only fair: if you take from the commons, you should give back to the commons. That’s how we cultivate a healthy commons. Related aspects: interoperable, non-colonial, non-commercial Interoperable Interoperable systems can talk to one another using well-established protocols. They’re the opposite of silos. Interoperability ensures that different groups can take a technology and evolve it in ways that fit their needs while still staying compatible with other tools that implement the same protocols. Interoperability, coupled with share alike licensing, helps us to distribute power more equally as rich corporations cannot “embrace and extend” commons technology, thereby creating new silos. Interoperability also means we don’t have to resort to colonialism in design: we can design for ourselves and support other groups who design for themselves while allowing all of us to communicate with each other within the same global network. Related aspects: share alike, non-colonial Non-commercial The primary purpose for Small Technology is not to make a profit but to increase human welfare. As such, they are built by not-for-profit organisations. Eventually, we hope that small technologies will be recognised for their contribution to the common good and therefore supported from the commons (e.g., from our taxes). In the interim, some methods for monetising Small Technology include: Charging for hosting and maintenance services Sales on App Stores (for native apps) Donations and patronage Grants and awards Equity-based / Venture Capital investment is incompatible with Small Technology as the success criterion is the sale of the organisation (either to a larger organisation or to the public at large via an IPO). Small Technology is not about startups (temporary companies designed to either fail fast or grow exponentially and get sold), it’s about stayups (sustainable organisations that contribute to the common good). Related aspects: non-colonial, share alike, interoperable Inclusive Being inclusive in technology is ensuring people have equal rights and access to the tools we build and the communities who build them, with a particular focus on including people from traditionally marginalised groups. Accessibility is the degree to which technology is usable by as many people as possible, especially disabled people Small Technology is inclusive and accessible. With inclusive design, we must be careful not to assume we know what’s best for others, despite us having differing needs. Doing so often results in colonial design, creating patronising and incorrect solutions.

Perl vs Python: What are the Key Differences?

These institutions are designed to support individuals and their habitats, reversing the current dynamic where people and their environments appear to serve institutions.

There’s not much of a market for what I’m describing.

Venkatesh Rao thinks that the Nazi bar analogy is “an example of a bad metaphor contagion effect” and points to a 2010 post of his about warren vs plaza architectures. He believes that Twitter, for example, is a plaza, whereas Substack is a warren: A warren is a social environment where no participant can see beyond their little corner of a larger maze. Warrens emerge through people personalizing and customizing their individual environments with some degree of emergent collaboration. A plaza is an environment where you can easily get to a global/big picture view of the whole thing. Plazas are created by central planners who believe they know what’s best for everyone.

Associated individuals[edit] In a New York Times editorial, Bari Weiss listed individuals associated with the intellectual dark web, including Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Sam Harris, Heather Heying, Claire Lehmann, Bill Maher, Douglas Murray, Maajid Nawaz, Camille Paglia, Jordan Peterson, Steven Pinker, Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, Michael Shermer, Christina Hoff Sommers, Bret Weinstein, and Eric Weinstein.

The intellectual dark web (IDW) is a term used to describe some commentators who oppose identity politics, political correctness, and cancel culture in higher education and the news media within Western countries.

HTML had blown open document publishing on the internet

Let’s look at some of the attributes of the memex. Your machine is a library not a publication device. You have copies of documents is there that you control directly, that you can annotate, change, add links to, summarize, and this is because the memex is a tool to think with, not a tool to publish with.

“A tool to think with, not a tool to publish with” — this seems to me essential. I feel that I spend a lot of time trying to think with tools meant for publishing.

Rather than dealing with the invariably convoluted process of moving my content between systems — exporting it from one, importing it into another, fixing any incompatibilities, maybe removing some things that I can’t find a way to port over — I drop my Markdown files into the new website and it mostly Just Works.

The important part, as is so often the case with technology, isn’t coming up with a solution to the post portability problem, but coming up with a solution together so that there is mutual buy-in and sustainability in the approach.

permit streams to be transferred between workers, frames and anywhere else that postMessage() can be used. Chunks can be anything which is cloneable by postMessage(). Initially chunks enqueued in such a stream will always be cloned, ie. all data will be copied. Future work will extend the Streams APIs to support transferring objects (ie. zero copy).

Mass electronic surveillance by governments revealed over the last several years has spurred a new movement to re-decentralize the web, a movement to empower individuals to be their own service providers again.

I was browsing someone’s site yesterday, hosted on Wordpress, yay! Except it was throwing plugin error messages. Wordpress is still too hard to maintain. Wordpress is not the answer.

There is one particular type of document in which the correct handling of the ordinal numbers of lists is paramount. A document type in which the ordinal numbers of the lists cannot be arbitrarily assigned by computer, dynamically, and in which the ordinal numbers of the lists are some of the most important content in the document.I'm referring of course to law.HTML, famously, was developed to represent scientific research papers, particularly physics papers. It should come as no surprise that it imagines documents to have things like headings and titles, but fails to imagine documents to have things like numbered clauses, the ordinal numbers of which were assigned by, for example, an act of the Congress of the United States of America.Of course this is not specific to any one body of law - pretty much all law is structured as nested ordered lists where the ordinal numbers are assigned by government body.It is just as true for every state in the Union, every country, every province, every municipality, every geopolitical subdivision in the world.HTML, from the first version right up to the present version, is fundamentally inimical to being used for marking up and serving legal codes as web pages. It can be done, of course - but you have to fight the HTML every step of the way. You have no access to any semantic markup for the task, because the only semantic markup for ordered lists is OL, which treats the ordinal numbers of ordered lists as presentation not content.

To build HIPAA compliant software, developers need to be aware of and comply with several key requirements outlined in the HIPAA Privacy Rule and Security Rule. These requirements are designed to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected health information (PHI) and to prevent unauthorized access, use, or disclosure of PHI.

We will try to add two tests for response code in order to know that our request was successful. Another test we will add for response time <  2 sec in order to understand how fast request was processed by server. If it will be executed slower then for 2 seconds, our test will fail. In this case I use 2 seconds just for example it might be greater or lower number, but 7 seconds is usually a maximum time for request execution. So in order to add tests, go to “Tests” in request section of application and add this few lines : tests["Status code is 200"] = responseCode.code === 200; tests["Response time is less than 200ms"] = responseTime < 2000; When this is done hit on Send button again and execute your first test.

Additionally, they are at the forefront of sharing valid product ideas with their team since they have an expert understanding of coding best practices as well as mobile and web programming services.

Time Required to Code: Every project comes with a deadline, and the time set out by your client to get the work done is a crucial part of your decision. If you have a tight deadline, you might be better off with the fastest front-end framework you can find. One that would work well with your team’s capabilities to ensure great results in the shortest time possible.

So now we have a file that you need to open in JMeter UI, configure number of threads that you want to execute and you are good to go.

Let’s add a test that will validate that number of results on a page is lower then total number of results.

In computing, the robustness principle is a design guideline for software that states: "be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others". It is often reworded as: "be conservative in what you send, be liberal in what you accept". The principle is also known as Postel's law, after Jon Postel, who used the wording in an early specification of TCP.

We really f'ed up the web didn't we?

I think I get what you're saying but I have some difficulty moving past the fact that you're claiming it doesn't need to be a website because it would be sufficient if it was a bunch of hosted markup documents that link to each other.

For lost googlers:

One of the things I loved most about Twitter was the way it could throw things in front of me that I never would have even thought to go look for on my own.

Constantly being told I was somewhat dim because I didn’t understand how to do things or what the unwritten rules were.
