Very cool idea. Lots of history in there! There were things I even forgot about.
Very interesting dive into where this theory comes from and how wrong it is.
A database we take for granted... but if you look in the margins it's full of history and very well crafted.
Interesting light shed on Javascript early history.
It's too often forgotten how much our culture is fragile. So many digital artifacts which could just vanish or not be readable anymore years from now.
Ever wonder how floppy disks worked? Here is your chance to find out, good reference.
Don't be fooled of the title. Yes, it concludes about an opinion piece about the latest changes in policy around RHEL. Still, it starts with a very nice retelling of the history around UNIX and computing since the 70s. This is an invaluable resource.
Nice trip down memory lane. Interesting conservation work in any case.
Nice recounting of the first meetings to make the web what it is today.
Sometimes I really regret Plan 9 didn't take off. So many good ideas and designs in there.
Very interesting! This is really old wisdom which should be more widespread. A few words of caution in there for everyone, me included.
This is an excellent and needed work of contextualization. Ten years after, looking back at how the Snowden Revelations impacted the internet and the work done by the IETF. It also shows there is plenty more to do...
Very interesting explorations of the early days of automation and computation. This shows another face of Babbage which is often ignored. It is a cruel demonstration on how his machine were first and foremost encroached on division of labor as inspired by plantations.
Indeed, without deciding to put everything in the public domain, the face of the web would have been very different.
I actually always wondered about this, now I know. :-)
Excellent piece which summarises the big design decisions behind the Internet. It's very didactic, also highlights the flaw toward the end. This is reference material.
This lawsuit and the first ruling are indeed very concerning. Let's hope we keep the Internet Archive alive, their work is invaluable.
Nice historical perspective from Alan Kay about the MVC architecture pattern.
Fascinating old school way to manage cables. And indeed the result looks pretty as well.
Very interesting technique. Clearly some more work but prevents deforesting like mad for lumber. It's amazing to see those... clearly a bit like giant bonsais.
