Somewhere between my original vision for web 1.0 and the rise of social media as part of web 2.0,
we took the wrong path.
We’re now at a new crossroads,
one where we must decide if AI will be used for the betterment or to the detriment of society.
How can we learn from the mistakes of the past?
First of all, we must ensure policymakers do not end up playing the same decade-long game of catchup they have done over social media.
The time to decide the go…

Ugh why is this always the way. I evaluated like 25 authentication servers for a small scale web project — I do want to support things like OIDC and Passkeys, so this is not something I really want to make myself like the old days of “use crypt() on the passwords and just make a simple database”.
5 of them are just dev mode garbage that will never see the light of day as a thing people use.
2 of them are home network nonsense for people who want enterprise login for their family, but where One Nerd controls the whole user-list.
15 of them are freemium "open source" where they withhold features for their enterprise tier and make them so unfortunately difficult to deploy, all requiring postgresql databases and a complex containerization setup and helm charts and oh so much.
and then there's kanidm, which is great except its opinions make it completely unusable for a community project, it's really more trying to fit the ‘enterprise unix authentication' space. Kudos to them for communicating it but it's the wrong tool, even if it is really good.
And then there's rauthy. Which is exactly what I want, well built and delightful, uses a lightweight embedded database, and even has a peer-to-peer sync for scalability. But customizing it is going to be a lesson in building it from source repeatedly, and its configuration is just a bit strange, and its frontend is extremely Backend Developer Wrote A Web UI. I guess I got a second project. And maybe a third to make debian packages of it.
Yet it really is the best of the options _by far_.

Starting the fourth chapter "The Rise of the Web" of #ThisIsForEveryone, I am pleasently surprised to find out a librarian — Louise Addis of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) — played an important, supportive role in the very first days of the web.
“Additionally, Cursor’s Amazon Web Services bills more than doubled from $6.2 million in May 2025 to $12.6 million in June 2025, exacerbating a cash crunch that began when Anthropic introduced Priority Service Tiers, an aggressive rent-seeking measure that begun what I call the Subprime AI Crisis, where model providers begin jacking up the prices on their previously subsidized rates.”

You would think Google Drive app would have basic search that finds all document titles containing search words. You would be wrong. Actually Apple Files/iCloud search is much better. The more I work with Google apps, the more mediocre they seem. The main thing that stops me from getting folks to use iCloud web apps is the unnecessary 2 modal dialogs to open every doc.
I've archived 2 forums on Autodesk's site related to the RV player. There's a big banner on top that these have been temporarily restored in read-only mode. Apparently ADSK shut them down and in doing so disappeared a large knowledge base for their products.

I have a question for anyone who happens to be knowledgeable about web standards:
The same way we had the (failed?) "DoNotTrack" header... Is there any working group or initiative working on an #HTTP header sent by the browser (or similar mechanism) to signal that the user wants an ecological/lightweight website? Something like "SaveEnergy" or "LowEnergy", or "LightweightMode".
Would it make sense? Or do you foresee that it would fail for some specific reasons?
P.S.: Of course I would prefer if we didn't have to signal our discontent with the unjustifiably big and unoptimized web pages that we are served.
P.S.2: Now I am feeling tempted to write a browser extension for people who want to use "alternative communication channels" (HTTP headers) to "yell" arbitrary stuff at certain websites (It would be glorious if we could coordinate a big "Fuck you, Google", or, in a more positive tone, "Free Palestine!").

However, he thinks this approach may fall short in tackling human influenza.

the central antigen moves with time.”

It is good IT Security practice to separate data from code. For example, an SQL Injection attack is to get the target to treat data (entered into a form) as code, that is break that barrier.
Now take an "AI agent" doing a task for you like: "Download that podcast that Frank emailed me about". It will read untrusted data (e-mails in my inbox), access sensitive data (e-mails from my friends) get more stuff from the web (the podcast episode), etc.
