A 16 color palette for dichromats and trichromats

Ametameric is as a system palette that provides the standard CGA/ANSI colors accomodating various forms of human color blindness/color vision deficiencies. 16 colors (including white, black and two grays) that all provide sufficient contrast for all common types of color vision. When working as intended, TUIs made to work well with the system colors (rather than 256/true color) should become accesible for color vision deficient users without further tweaks needed.

I recently read Darek Kay’s excellent post about styling RSS feeds and wanted to do something similar. So, here’s my simple guide to styling your WordPress blog’s RSS / Atom theme…

After four years, Honk 1.0 is released.

Make sure to read the source code, it's comedic:

Browsing projects on #Sourcehut reminds me of what FLOSS development looked like 15-20 years ago. Ugly interfaces that were just thin layers above the code, barely any README (let alone wikis, or any form of easily accessible and structured documentation), and let's not mention accessibility on mobile.

How are we supposed to build the foundations of tomorrow's FLOSS if we use tools that look even more outdated than Craigslist? How are we supposed to have any credibility when we tell people "stop using Github, try Sourcehut instead"? How do we expect to create user engagement? How do we expect somebody who's not a developer to use software that doesn't even come with an easily accessible documentation?

And the discussion is good. The endless discussion about SourceHut's UI+UX! My opinion: UI is good, UX not so. But I use it nevertheless!

My philosophy is that (nearly) everyone can and should host their own microblog, but I’m less convinced that’s true for a link site.

My philosophy is totally different.

... we are heading to the world where 10% of population would be able to produce all the goods needed.

... How is the 90% going to make their living?

They are not. If nothing changes they are going to die of hunger. And even worse, once that happens there will be only 10% of the population left, so the market shrinks to one tenth of its original size. At that point only only one tenth of the survivors — 1% of the orginal population — will be needed to produce all the goods. Thus, 9% will be left with no work to do and will also die of hunger. Now, of course, the demand plummets to 1% of what it used to be in the past and, given the improved efficiency, only 0.1% is needed to satisfy it. 0.9% is left with no work, is starved to death etc. Vicious circle perpetuates until the last human being dies of hunger.

All in all, there are three possible solutions:

1. Decrease efficiency

2. Work less

3. Consume more

I think the initial problem is wrong. We still need at least some millions of people to sustain the world. We can't go to one person in the limit who will manage a farm, a factory and an internet server all by themselves.

The author says the proposed three solution won't solve the problem long term. Yeah, they won't. They aren't solving it now. Says a universal basic income might help, but says it's a topic for another day.
