Have Single-Page Apps Ruined the Web? | Transitional Apps - Rich Harris, NYTimes @ JAMstack TV: https://invidious.hub.ne.kr/watch?v=860d8usGC0o

I'm very much a "traditionalist" as Harris calls us, I don't trust the code arbitrary servers have me run. But I'll be satisfied with "Transitional Apps"!

I do acknowledge that today JS might be required to build your best website, but I think that's less often than you think. And I aim to make it even rarer by extending the capabilities of HTML/CSS

f(x,y) = (~(((18 % y) * (x * x)) % ((x + y) * (~x)))) % 9

Extent: 256x256 (scaled x2)

@loke https://idiomdrottning.org/perfect Signal is the perfect example of what we should avoid, of the type of “good” that’s an enemy of perfect.

The improvement over FB etc isn’t big enough since we are still beholden to one corporation, and
getting people to switch to Signal will make it harder to get them to switch to something else in the future. You only get so many “you should switch to such-and-such” per lifetime.

We’re painting ourselves into a corner by recommending Signal, Telegram, Discord. It breaks my heart every time I see them recommended.

Facebook just scored the Big Tech Hattrick 🎉

- Get a whistleblower to stand up and soon testify
- Get worldwide downtime for several linked platforms
- Get data leaked for 1+ billion users

Congratulations to Mark for this truly remarkable accomplishment 👏👏👏

TIL that iphones regularly transmit the Mac addresses of devices attached to the same WiFi network to Apple. In addition to their geographical location of course.

So essentially you can be tracked across all locations where an iPhone is near you (and you haven't disabled your WiFi).

Wow.

Wegen Kundenparkplätzen: Polizei schlägt Apotheker zusammen | APOTHEKE ADHOC

i'm kinda hyped about #jxl (#jpegXL). at first i didn't thought much of it, probably jet another marginal improvement to JPEG, that's probably riddled with patents, right? but it really isn't.

for one thing it's a successor of #FLIF, that cool lossless image codec, that i kinda though quietly died (perhaps some patent ruined it?).

https://flif.info/

but instead it was developed into FUIF and then merged with a google codec called Pik to be the successor to JPEG!

"Aren't you müde from writing Rust programs in English? Do you like saying "scheiße" a lot? Would you like to try something different, in an exotic and funny-sounding language? Would you want to bring some German touch to your programs?

rost (German for Rust) is here to save your day, as it allows you to write Rust programs in German, using German keywords, German function names, German idioms."
