Viktor Lofgren about the current web: "Much of the modern web is a fractal of dark patterns, it’s made for humans in the same sense a zoo or a meat packing plant is made for animals."

What is a computer for you in 2023? For me, it's still the 'personal computer' idea from the 90's. You own your data and you decide what software runs. Unfortunately these machines were so clunky, it's time to make the computer portable. It's also time to make the computer 'personal' again.

A lot of visitors after my blogpost got popular on Hacker News. Red plus yellow are the visits, which I had 17553 of. Only red are the unique visitors. The website system held pretty well under the load, with 2 visitors per second at it's peak hour. Also credit to the webhost!

A restaurant owner told me today that he stopped using Thuisbezorgd (app for home delivery of food here in NL). "A lot of revenue, but less profit. We use our own website again." After him stopping, another three restaurants stopped using Thuisbezorgd. Which emphasizes the local aspect of the restaurant industry.

"Websites are social constructs. There are only servers that speak this weird HTTP protocol and sometimes spit out a markup language called HTML if you're lucky. This HTML is then understood by either very principled humans or "web browsers" and then it all gets transformed into roughly what the writer or designer wants it to look ...

"If you care about software, you build your own hardware." Ending day two of a project for a dirty first prototype; a DIY tablet computer. Based on a Raspberry Pi (of course) and running Ubuntu Mate. Mostly measuring, drilling and sanding up until now.

For your international customers outside of Europe you can offer Paypal or Bitcoin as a payment method. For moral reasons our webshop doesn't offer credit card payments.

Did you know that... to get paid inside Europe from other European countries you need nothing more than an IBAN bank account? You probably already have one, so no need for expensive payment providers. Get paid within two business days. #hellowebshop

Right now, I use this timeline mainly as a way of learning to regularly place updates. I want to make it a habit. It doesn't matter what kind of update, just some text that maybe might make some sense to somebody. This is one of these texts.

"The story of HTTP shows one thing rather clearly: what we know today as the internet is not a single thing. It is a suite of protocols and ideas that work together to facilitate the exchange of information, a suite of protocols that evolve and improve, often subtly and gradually."

Today another discussion about RSS on Hacker News (see link). There's still praise and growing attention from developers. But discovery of new content needs work. Discovery requires an active user, which is the polar opposite of mindless scrolling. #challenge
