A year of new avenues

Does it feel yet like everything is changing. "It's 2003 again," says Robin Sloan (who maybe doesn't remember what it was like in 1994). Things are happening so fast I have to collapse numerous items into a single item (on, say Mastodon, or on the latest AI, or on the turmoil in the blockchain market). Anyhow, this article is a perhaps overly florid but useful exposition of the sort of future we should expect. "For people who care about creating worlds together, rather than getting rich, the web is the past and the web is the future. What incredible luck, that this open, decentralized "way of relating" claimed a position at the heart of the internet, and stuck fast." There's a reference to a new browser called Arc (I'm on the waitlist). There's a discussion of the limitatons of web addressing. And there's a reference to a lesson from making olive oil - particularly relevant since I've spent the last couple of weeks working in southern Europe.
