"A full #React rewrite may look cutting-edge, but it threatens the broad community, the ecosystem, and #WordPress’s future sustainability. Instead, modernizing via #PHP + Interactivity API + modern CSS (including View Transitions) preserves backward compatibility, performance, and accessibility while delivering a polished, modern admin experience."

"Once the infrastructures of #uniqueIdentification are constructed, it won’t only be #advertisers profiling and microtargeting customers but #states profiling and microtargeting any political opponents or other public enemies-du-jour. In addition to chilling #freespeech, restricting access to vital health & identity resources, impacting historically oppressed communities, forcing users to hand over sensitive biometric or government ID data to unaccountable 3rd parties."

#theFediverse : "Some might say that #decentralisation without a unifying centre will weaken our collective voice. But history shows that #movements thrive when they are many-voiced. A network of independent spaces, each with its own #governance and #culture, is harder to silence, co-opt, or corrupt than any single global fediverse could ever be." #mustread https://jaz.co.uk/2025/08/14/there-is-one-fediverse-there-are-a-million-fediverses/

"If you wanna know how I write 2-3 books per year, blame the #cognitiveprosthesis of #blogging, which forces me to apply rigor to the #notes I take, and rewards me with a searchable database of everything I've ever found important, while stimulating a constant mnemonic rejuggling of all those thoughts that crystallizes into an endless stream of novel synthetic insights and road-tested ways to express them."

#PIX is the future of #money! "I can’t help noticing that Pix is actually achieving what #cryptocurrency boosters claimed, falsely, to be able to deliver through the blockchain—low transaction costs and financial inclusion. Compare the 93% of Brazilians using Pix to the 2% of Americans who used cryptocurrency to buy something or make a payment in 2024. Oh, and using Pix doesn’t create an incentive to kidnap people and torture them until they give up their crypto keys."
Has Brazil Invented the Future of Money?
And will it ever come to America?
Trump quer que o brasileiro pare de usar PIX para usar WhatsApp Pay. O que os brasileiros tem a dizer sobre isso?

"I think that centrist suppression of the left has pushed 90 percent of the energy for major change into right wing nihilist movements, but the anti-corporate, #antimonopolist energy has not dissipated. It's formed a kind of invisible political wind that has filled the sails of these #antimonopoly projects all over the world." @npub1fdrp...lvhs

"#Socialmedia seems to have splintered — much like other aspects of the internet have — into separate #fiefdoms, one (or possibly two) for conservatives and right-wing trolls, and another (or possibly two) for the left. Not to mention private Discord groups and other “dark social.” …the potential for #federation of posts and other content [the Fediverse] is one of the few rays of hope in the current fractured landscape. @npub16f3f...6xc0
