Funny!

Weird Web October is a challenge to try and make a website every day of October, based on the theme for each day, inspired by Inktober. It’s open to you and everyone!

We want to bring back the WEIRD WEB. When people just put fun and silly stuff on the internet, not for followers or likes but just for the joy of making something and sharing it.

How? Read it!

I would do something under lyokolux.space :)

• inline svgs
• named grid lines and areas
• scrollIntoView()
• position: sticky elements in CSS transforms

The list is huge actually! It shows how complex a web browser has become.

Note animations does not work on Firefox.

sometimes when you get down to implementing a measure, you find an endless maze of increasingly confusing corner cases.

How to find real human visiting the pages?

The best experience made by the author is to use a setTimeout of 3 seconds that pings a log endpoint.

Yes.

I am ready for the revival of directories of websites curated by people for people, and found through serendipity. How much worse will it get? I am both curious and very afraid. But also angry. And powerless.
So I’m frustrated.

How CSS handles things already.

#todo what does CSS handle?

I like the design, how the website is structured by tags and links. The way the posts are organized.

The HTML Hobbyist Mission

1. Show how quick, easy, and affordable it has become to get a website up and running.
2. Show how enjoyable building a simple hand-coded artisanal HTML website can be.
3. Provide instructions and guidance on how others could build and upload a similar hobbyist website to share with the community.

In the similar way, https://web.archive.org/web/20130707062738/https://neocities.org/about

Likes, upvotes, replies, friending. What if it’s all just linking? In fact, what if linking is actually more meaningful!

They can be dated.

Now let’s turn to categories. A small directory doesn’t need a full-blown hierachy—the hierarchy shouldn’t dwarf the collection.

A structure for a flat directory (in one file or one file per entry) can be:

---
Link Title
url://something/something
*topic/subtopic format time-depth
Markdown-formatted *description* goes here.

• topic/subtopic is a two-level ad-hoc categorization similar to a tag. A blog may cover multiple categories, but I’m not sure if I’ll tackle that. I’m actually thinking this answers the question, “Why do I visit this site? What is it giving me?” So a category might be supernatural/ghosts if I go there to get my fix of ghosts; or, it could be writing/essays for a blog I visit to get a variety of longform. An asterisk would indicate that the blog is a current feature among this topic (and this designation will change periodically.)
• format could be: ‘blog’, ‘podcast’, ‘homepage’, a single ‘pdf’ or ‘image’, etc.
• time-depth indicates the length one can expect to spend at this link. It could be an image that only requires a single second. It could be a decade worth of blog entries that is practically limitless.

The other items: author, url and description—these are simply metadata that would be collected.
The directory would then allow discovery by any of these angles. You could go down by topic or you could view by ‘time depth’.

A lost my 30-minutes long notes...

The argumentation is well-thought and the reasoning solid against Google

So because a website HTML/CSS is protected computer program: an ad blocker intervenes in the in-memory execution structures of it; it constitutes an unlawful reproduction and modification.

This was first reject; but a new ruling sent the case back.

There are many reasons, in addition to ad blocking, that users might want their browser or a browser extension to alter a webpage.

As per BGH’s ruling, Springer’s argument needs to be re-examined to determine if DOM, CSS, and bytecode count as a protected computer program.

Mozilla noted that the new proceedings could take up to a couple of years to reach a final conclusion. As the core issue is not settled, there is a future risk of extension developers to be held liable for financial losses.
