Introduction¶
An occasional collection of things I've recently found on the Internet and added to my bookmarks.
JSON-LD Explained for Personal Websites¶
Handy guide to how JSON-LD can be useful for personal websites.
TownSquare¶
On the one hand, this looks like a fun idea: sort of a Second Life for websites. On the other hand, it's the worst of the Internet, which is no surprise.
The AI Resist List¶
Does what it says in the title, pretty much.
Rest of the World¶
A good reminder that tech stories come from places other than the "western" world.
smolweb¶
A handy guide to all things relating to the small web, and related concepts.
Gemtext Is Not Accessible¶
A good reminder that, as fun and neat as Gemtext is, it's not terribly accessible.
Honesty gets Emacs patch rejected¶
The FSF, in effect, does what the FSF is there to do: defend the copyright of GNU Emacs (among other projects). Meanwhile someone attempts to contribute a patch written by a large language model, and seemingly gets offended that it's rejected. I think the worst part about it is they seem to think that being honest about using an LLM should let their contribution in.
The UnOfficial History of Second Life!¶
A pretty fun Reddit post that contains a potted history of the evolution of Second Life. I've had an account for a good chunk of that time, and it all reads about right to me.
Radial¶
I've long been a fan of pie menus. I wish macOS had adopted and used pie menus. This looks like something I need to try out at some point.
The AI Compass¶
It's one of those "compass" type quizzes that works out where you stand on the whole issue of AI. I landed on "The Skeptic".
