       WordPress is the most important piece of software in 2023 (and beyond) " #Twitter exodus should be the last warning you need to invest in a blog, a podcast and RSS.#WordPress becomes a necessary tool to build an online presence decentralized from the legacy social media sites.Like QR codes in the last few years, #RSS feeds will have a massive resurgence in educating a group of people on how your content can be accessed across the web, on a protocol level."https://thewpminute.com/wordpress-is-the-most-important-piece-of-software-in-2023-and-beyond/

       Mozilla: "In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud, France is on the verge of forcing browsers to create a dystopian technical capability. It would force browser providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites present on a government provided list. Such a move will overturn decades of established content moderation norms and provide a playbook for authoritarian governments"https://blog.mozilla.org/netpolicy/2023/06/26/france-browser-website-blocking/#france #browser #cybersecurity #mozilla #security #surveillance

       If they explicitly write "bypass" and "circumvent" blocking technologies in their job description, why bother asking for ethical skills from developers? They don't really want an "ethical dev", do they?😏

       Why We Should Stop Using JavaScript According to Douglas Crockford (Inventor of JSON)"We're stuck with this crap and they keep piling new features on everything. The new features always create new problems, it doesn't have to be like that. We could be using clean OS, clean languages/runtimes in a much more reliable way. I've done JS for a generation. It's time for the next thing. It's not a radical point of view but a normal evolutionary view"https://youtube.com/watch?v=lc5Np9OqDHU#javascript #programming

       'The root cause of manager incompetence: everyone in an organization keeps on getting promoted until they reach their level of incompetence. At that point they stop being promoted. So given enough time and enough promotion levels, every position in a firm will be occupied by someone who can’t do the job"https://hbr.org/2014/12/overcoming-the-peter-principle#management #competence #promotion #job #boss #leader

       It seems like someone who tried to do everything at once. It's similar to when people radically change their diet or try to be more eco-friendly at once - they get overwhelmed and give up.https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/i-m-quitting-this-privacy-journey/20493#privacy #dataprotection

       Sam Altman side by side with Aaron Swartz.I can't stop thinking about it. One was prosecuted by the US for downloading copyrighted data from 1 source for noble purposes, and committed suicide to avoid prison. The other is widely celebrated for doing this on a much larger scale.

       @davidrevoy I did but there are no names there. :( I may sometimes use open-source tools that I don't know who made them. But I don't feel comfortable using them for a browser. If it's a honeypot created by intelligence agencies or North Korean hackers, I have no idea. 😬
