Ещё один клон старого ВК. Мне дали доступ к какому-то аккаунту. Автор проекта заметил, что я в сети, и начал со мной разговор. Обсудили чуток, прикольно. Пожелал ему удачи и попросил сделать RSS-ленту, чтобы я подписаться мог.
merely 93% of paint splatters parse as valid Perl.
C++ has a built-in logic deduction engine. It's not free, it's like a second program you are writing alongside the main one.
Статья про заброшенные станции
Я очень рад, что моя гипотеза про их существование подтвердилась.
Лондонское метро насчитывает 270 станций. Ну и жесть. В Казани десяток.
P2P technology is doomed on mobile [because of small batteries]. For a democratic web, we need to work on federation.
The author thought so in 2016. 8 years later I'm developing for the federated web, cool. I like how they mention Diaspora, which is history now.
The 16th-century “Florentine Codex” offers a Mexican Indigenous perspective that is often missing from historical accounts of the period.

Long and entertaining text. It's mostly about the script.
Web Sustainability Guidelines (WSG) 1.0 covers a wide range of recommendations for making websites and products more sustainable. Following these guidelines which utilize environment, social, and governance (ESG) principles throughout the decision-making processes, you can minimize your environmental impact through a mixture of user-centered design, performant web development, renewable infrastructure, sustainable business strategy, and (with metrics) various combinations of those mentioned. It should be noted that these guidelines will not address every possible mechanism or strategy to become sustainable, as such, these guidelines (which are notably Web orientated and focused) should be seen as a starting point in a sustainability journey (coverage does not extend for example to manufacturing or shipping of physical products). Following these guidelines will often make Web content more accessible, usable, and performant as a by-product.
Big text!

... 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:
Decrease efficiency
Work less
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.
