Pet peeve: when people nitpick rhetorical flourishes in my examples while completely ignoring the main point. Hint: If I bring up the web or the macintosh, that doesn’t mean my essay is specifically about the web or the macintosh.

QOTD: ‘The web is broken because it is a half-hearted, incomplete implementation of Xanadu.’ (Source: https://dev.to/tux0r/comment/586n)

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net My take on this is… let’s let people ruin the web. Let centralized services control everything. But let us tech savvy people stick together and provide an alternative space for us. A space that’s welcoming to those that want to join and learn. Maybe people will come over when their online actions show real life consequences. There are statistics about decreasing social media use in Generation Z. Maybe they want to learn from us Internet-Dinosaurs :)

The Shuffle interface is so strange. Everything is HUGE and there’s not much of it. It’s web 2.0 af. Was this a VN trend I missed?

Re: generalism vs specialism & polymathy – BREADTH IS DEPTH because knowledge is a web, not a tree. It only looks like a tree if you SPECIALIZE.

Reading about Web Prolog & it reminds me a lot of the work I did on Mycroft. I wonder: how will routing work here? If fully-qualified predicates have an explicit hostname component, Web Prolog can go fuk.

Writing long, overly complex, & logically flawed apologia of bad mainstream ideas in order to recast them as revolutionary is a growth industry. (See the ‘intellectual dark web’, whose major unifying trait is boringly normie positions.) Why not reach for a surreal or absurd take?

The most interesting thing about https://www.fastly.com/blog/headers-we-dont-want is the indication that the culture of the web is a cargo-cult one where we will waste kilobytes per response on redundant headers that were deprecated 20 years ago or present possible security problems

and when two wizards love each other, their aspects intermingle, a giant spider grows scales of gold while the clockwork starts looking more organic and web-like

Hot take: the web never ‘belonged to the people’ – the moment a centralized client-server model with hostnames embedded in the addressed was decided upon, the seeds of Facebook & Google were sown.

QOTD: ‘The Web is the minimal concession to hypertext that a sequence-and-hierarchy chauvinist could possibly make.’ -Ted Nelson

It is written here that the ancients wrote their books in hyper-ink on pages of spidersilk that they assembled into webs. One word of this ink, my friend, could contain a book, but sadly, most of their works fell victim to inkrot
