“We were excited about the internet because we saw it as a place where you could connect with other nerds about your niche hobby. What we did not predict was that other peoples’ niche hobby would be white supremacy.” — panama joe, metafilter.com/195580/The-Form…

The ‘Form’ Element Created the Modern Web. Was It a Big Mistake?

No one ever knows what they’re unleashing. They don’t even know there’s a leash. I’ve been given a time machine. Would I send a Terminator back to the web standards meetings circa 1994 to...

Finland approved mining exploration in Sámi territory without assessing its cultural impact or gaining Sámi consent.

Sámi sisters led the case, arguing that traditional governance structures were ignored.

UN ruled Finland must amend its laws to recognize Sámi collective land rights and fully implement free, prior and informed consent.

“Sustainability is an empty word if you don’t respect and implement Indigenous rights here in our homelands.”
Näkkäläjärvi, Sámi leader.

Mining in Finland violates Sámi Indigenous rights, UN finds

Two recent UN committee rulings state that Finland violated the Sámi people’s rights by allowing mineral exploration without proper consultation or consent.Tristan Ahtone reports for Grist.

To je inak zaujimavy "twist", ze kym volakedy bojovali v "proxy vojnach" proti sebe USA a ZSSR, tak dnes mozno toto budu robit Juzna Korea proti Severnej.

Co je zatial konzistentne/to iste je to, ze sa nadalej jedna o cca "kapitalisti vs. komunisti".

Dnes v poledne jsem vydal tohle fffilm.cz/2024/10/audio-recenz… a o tři hodiny později mi dorazila do datové schránky výzva, abych začal platit rozhlasové poplatky. Náhoda?

Shodou okolností jsem si zrovna dnes koupil rádio. To je ale náhoda.

Because it came back up in a fun conversation in the Corecursive Slack today, it seems like a great time to re-up this post I wrote about PL ideas, including type systems, including the super fancy ones we don’t see much of the real world yet: v5.chriskrycho.com/journal/wiz…

The Wizardry Frontier — Sympolymathesy, by Chris Krycho

For 75 years, programming languages have steadily raised the baseline of what “normal” programmers can express in their languages. They can still.
