I’m looking for work 👀. I’m looking for something remote (UK, Europe or Global), working with tech/web standards, advocacy &/or web education. I have engineering & leadership experience & I’m open to non-engineering technical roles.

Parts of #Microsoft #Edge get up to 76% faster by dropping #React in favor of Web Components.

React's days may finally be coming to an end 🤞

Research does not support the widespread belief that blue light emitted by electronic device screens in the evening is worse than warmer colored light when trying to fall asleep.

My next #WeblogPoMo2024 post is an expansion of an earlier thread on Mastodon.

"Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

The computer, however, will stop you from recording DRM'd content.

Find it fascinating that when faced with drawing safety and security boundaries, the primary beneficiary is not the owner of the device, or the person using it, but random corporations who control the intellectual property rights.

The system doesn't work for you.

RadicalAnthro, 17 days ago to Egalitarianism

A decent summary of the discussion over shrinkage of brain size in Homo sapiens in the past 100,000 years.

One very strong point is made by Eva #Jablonka, linking reduction of brain size to stratification and class society:
'Jablonka argues that if even if brains did shrink when complex societies emerged, it doesn't necessarily follow that smaller brains were necessarily an adaptive response.
"If 3,000 years ago much larger more complex societies emerged, this could correlate with much greater differences in social classes. If, as a consequence the majority of people were poor, then we know that poverty and malnutrition and things like that would compromise the developing brain."'

We would agree, metabolic and energetic/nutrient constraint is likely important. Marta #Lahr also suggests a link to nutrient deficiency associating to onset of agriculture.

A significant implication is that the super large brains of our ancestors came about through #egalitarianism and strong ethics of #sharing vital nutrients to mothers and children.

2020: Microsoft sets goal to be carbon negative by end of the decade.

2023: Microsoft's emissions are 30% higher than in 2020.

Main cause? The relentless push to meet AI demand, which requires new data centers built out of carbon-intensive steel, cement, chips.

ICMY: I’ll be dropping some serious #CouchDB knowledge this Wednesday.

All of the things I’ve learned working on and with CouchDB since 2007 when it comes to database and document design.

Many bits also easily translate to other Document DBs and Key-Value Stores, so this is going to be useful even beyond CouchDB.

🧳I’m going to Seoul, South Korea next week. What should I see and do?

Art, history, nature, live music, nightlife, and gay stuff are of interest. I’m ok being a tourist. Day trips ok too, but I don’t have a driver’s license. Plant-based food recommendations especially appreciated.

Memory errors in consumer devices such as PCs and phones are not something you hear much about, yet they are probably one of the most common ways these machines fail.

I'll use this thread to explain how this happens, how it affects you and what you can do about it. But I'll also talk about how the industry failed to address it and how we must force them to, for the sake of sustainability. 🧵 1/17
