2020. They just make a virtual 3D model of you from all the data they collected and stream it directly to the device. 2022. They can now engrave fingertips on paper.

It remove salt from the water but more importantly move it to the top of mountains, which adds energy into the system. Chemistry happens when the water disolves sediments and carry them back to the oceans.


There's https://bonkersworld.net/ with a working feed. Last entry Nov 2020.


I would have preferred links labelled "next" and "prev" so I could navigate with Vimium's >> key.



Printf is type-safe in Haskell and OCaml. The format-string is not a regular string, it must be literal and is type-checked specifically.


Which printf in Haskell are you thinking of? This one doesn't fit your description, for example:

There are probably much more content added to IPFS, zeronet and other projects I don't know about. (yes we can host websites on IPFS: https://docs.ipfs.io/concepts/dnslink/)


Right, depends on definition. We define it as decentralized name system + decentralized storage, but other definitions are fine of course.

Even then, we didn't cover Handshake based websites, so you're correct.


I always try to write a comment that say "why" the following code is needed or what concept it implements rather than what it does in details.

I would do

    // We allow scrolling in two directions
    hScrollBar = new JScrollBar(scrollBar, HORIZONTAL);
    add(hScrollBar, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    vScrollBar = new JScrollBar(JScrollBar.VERTICAL);
    add(vScrollBar, BorderLayout.EAST);
    caretX = 0;
    caretY = 0;
    caretMemX = null;
(I don't have much inspiration in this specific example)


One of the things that hype me about IPFS is that URIs can't change. Resources are immutable and the URI is only the hash of the content.

I wonder how many things are still stored uncracked waiting for future measuring instruments.
