This Robin Sloan fella is an interesting character. Not only have I read his one of his fiction novels, the tremendous Mr. Penumbra’s 24‑Hour Bookstore, but I also use the olive oil he makes with partner Kathryn Tomajan. …

WDRL — Edition 286: A few words, a few articles towards the end of 2020.
24.12.2020
Hey,
It’s nearly the end of the year and the world is still different than we could imagine before 2020. We still don’t know how to deal with the new kinds of diseases short and long-term. We still have no real clue and conclusion how to save our planet (means us humans, the planet will survive)....
How The Web is Really Built
22.12.2020
My 2020 was colored by the considerable amount of time I spent analyzing data about CSS usage in the wild, for the CSS chapter of the Web Almanac, by the HTTP Archive. The results were eye-opening to me. A wake-up call of sorts. We spend so much time in the bubble of bleeding-edge tech that we lose...

Hey,

Chapter 5: Publishing
9.11.2020
Not long after HotWired launched on the web in 1994, Josh Quittner wrote an article entitled “Way New Journalism” for the publication. He was enthusiastic about the birth of a new medium.
I’m talking about a sea change in journalism itself, in the way we do the work of reporting and presenting...
V archivu webových stránek jsou nesmysly a dezinformace. Internet Archive na ně proto bude upozorňovat
2.11.2020
Provozovatel internetového archivu Archive.org řeší komplikovanou situaci. Na jednu stranu chce lidem zpřístupnit stránky, které již neexistují, ale na druhou stranu některé tyto stránky obsahují nepravdy a potenciálně závadné informace, což je často jeden z důvodů, proč byly staženy. Aby lidem
