I also never thought easy and simple being synonyms – uncomplex resonates well, however.

I loved the alertbox and 101. Tanks for sharing. I love to see how robust foundational knowledge is and how volatile much of the candy and buzzwords. Writing plain, static html is still paramount for everything that has to be there the next

EOL doesn't matter - in use and in standard matters. Also the look depends on local conditions – the font. That's not what designers are keen on.

Talking RSS and meaning "that feed stuff, you know" is extremely harmful because it adds to the confusion and makes the closed monopolists shine for their "simplicity". So please talk about Atom and let RSS rest in peace

That's treating humans like thermodynamical particles: if one way is easier than the other, things will end up on the easy side eventually. That is human dignity from the sales point of view: that of a particle.

I see this being enforced in places that value IT security (both reliability and confidentiality). Not doing so make leaks a matter of time.

Indeed, the grim fate of Semmelweis is extreme. But think, for example, of Ken Saro-Wiwa, who fought Big Oil and was executed. As for paper - I suspect that written letter communication leaves a much smaller footprint than sending emails an

that's a shame. It shone so bright https://www.bbc.co.uk/academy/en/articles/art201307241216586... and inspired my radio recorder to publish raw meta data.

Indeed. Last year I resolved to only get upset about things I can change. The challenge now is to tell the difference.

Think of the climate people in the 80ies. > paper lobbyist one who wants to slow down datafication of all aspects of life. Both private and public. I took paper as a symbol.

I wonder who are today's Semmelweis. Privacy advocats? Paper lobbyists? Climate activits? And how to no go insane and drown in Cassandra syndrome?

years ago the BBC had all programs as machine readable RDF – they were leading the semantic web. All vanished like the dinos – can anybody tell what happened?

the one dangerous thing in an Url is the host (precisely: the IP). Either trust it or don't. What it actually says doesn't mean a thing.

lol, indeed. That's the point of engineering, to fence and mitigate errors - both current and future, isn't it? The future part especially makes it a hard problem.

I'd go so far as to say that any code based on discrete numbers has rounding induced discontinuities, naturally. And with variable precision those can be arbitrarily large. Take decimal integer representations like 999 and 1000 – they
