The parent of Twitter announced the birth of the "5th generation" Internet
The software platform Web5, created by Dorsey's new company TBD, is announced as the next stage in the development of the Internet, combining the capabilities of today's Web 2.0 and existing only at the level of Web3 concept.
The former head of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, announced a new software platform, Web5.
Web5 will have to become "an extra decentralized Web platform" and, according to Dorsey, "probably the most important contribution to the development of the Internet" by his companies.

LINUX PROGRAMMING
Hi ,
Guess what? It's FOSS turned 10 years old this week. It started as a hobby side project to help fellow desktop Linux users. Today, it is my full time work.
In the past 10 years, It's FOSS has been visited 175 million times by people all over the globe.…

Hi ,

In the past 10 years, It's FOSS has been visited 175 million times by people all over the globe. It has over 65,000 comments that shows readers live to interact and express their views, apart from seeking suggestions.
We have over 120K people on Facebook, 67K on Twitter, 50K on YouTube. We also have a steady presence on Mastodon and Telegram. Our community forum also has a small but dedicated group of members.
It's FOSS has come a long way but it has to go even beyond this.
I thank you all for being part of this 10 years long journey and help It's FOSS reach where it stands today.
I couldn't help write this much because this is a huge milestone and it makes me excited and emotional.
That aside, let's see what's new this week.
KDE Plasma 5.25 has been released with focus on visual improvements.
GitHub is discontinuing Atom project for Microsoft's VS Code.
Mozilla Thunderbird is getting an Android app in the form of K-9 Mail.
Firefox's latest release features a privacy protection feature enabled by default.
Are you scared of terminal? Here are some reasons why you should not be afraid of it. And a few tips to help you know your terminal better.
Application highlight of this week is Thonny, an ideal Python IDE for schools. Another excellent tool is Distrobox. Good for trying different distros in one system.
A quick list of the best apps for Matrix fans.
In essential Linux learnings, get familiar with the stat command and various timestamps.
That's about it for this week.
Keep on Linuxing with It's FOSS, for decades :)

Reading user agreements in 1 second
Let's be honest: nobody reads user agreements. Sure, lots of clauses, obscure language - why kill time on it. But many people forget that they're a legal document, stating the terms of service, privacy statements, and all that kind of stuff.
So reading these agreements is a must if you don't want to be without your data. Good thing we have ToSDR. It reads the user agreements for you, makes a short summary and gives you a rating for the site. F for very bad, and A for very good. YouTube, for example, has a grade of D (satisfactory).
The website also shows the reasons why the service is given such a low rating. For example, data can be deleted at any time and without the user's knowledge.

Nowa wersja frameworka? To niekoniecznie działa
Problemy z taką praktyką są co najmniej dwa.
Po pierwsze, nowi programiści bardzo szybko zorientują się, że to wszystko jest jedynie udawaniem, że mamy najnowsze wersje w projekcie. Co z tego, że cyferka się zgadza, jak każda próba użycia przez członków zespołu nowej konstrukcji, kończy się zwróceniem uwagi na code review, że my takich rzeczy nie używamy. Na pewno nie jest to sytuacja komfortowa i sprzyjająca jakości pracy.
Po drugie, podbijanie w ten sposób wersji może w końcu doprowadzić do sytuacji, że starsze konstrukcje, albo metody, które siłą trzymamy w kodzie, staną się przestarzałe na tyle, że nowa wersja języka czy frameworka oznaczy je jako „deprecated”, a po kolejnej aktualizacji zwyczajnie zostaną usunięte. Nie interesując się nowymi konstrukcjami i ignorując możliwości zmian, tak naprawdę budujemy złudne poczucia bycia na bieżąco i pielęgnujemy nasz dług techniczny.

Nowa wersja frameworka czy języka to nie tylko zmiana cyfry
Nowa wersja frameworka to coś więcej niż zmiana cyfry. Jak dobrze podejść do aktualizacji, aby realnie wykorzystać nowe rozwiązania i się nie zniechęcić?
Package is “set to manually installed”? What does it Mean?
You’ll see this message when you try installing an already installed library or development package. This dependency package was installed automatically with another package. The dependency package gets removed with the apt autoremove command if the main package is removed.
But since you tried to install the dependency package explicitly, your Ubuntu system thinks that you need this package independent of the main package. And hence the package is marked as manually installed so that it is not removed automatically.

Kupując ebooka w księgarni myśleliście kiedyś "a, kupie, będzie plik bez błędów, na pewno wszystko będzie działać". Nie mogę powiedzieć o jaki plik chodzi, ale właśnie zetknąłem się z ciekawym problemem. Ebook prosto z księgarni, jeszcze czuć zapach serwerów. Nie ładuje się pierwszy rozdział na czytniku. W apce na androida i calibre działa. Szybkie dochodzenie... i opad szczęki.
I nie, nie chodzi o błędy w czytniku. Czytnik po prostu ma mniejszą tolerancje dla błędów w kodzie (bo pliki EPUB są tworzone w podobny sposób co strony internetowe). Po porostu w ebooku brakuje kluczowej rzeczy. <body>
Dla niewtajemniczonych, ebooki wymaga plików (np każdy rozdział w osobnym pliku), i muszą mieć konkretny format:
"<body>" mówi przeglądarce/czytnikowi gdzie jest tekst który ma odczytać i jak ma to zrobić. W tym pliku tego brakowało. Ja się chciałbym tylko zapytać - gdzie jest jakaś korekta? Nikt nie sprawdza, nawet automatem, kodu tych plików?
Jak znajdziecie lub znacie więcej takich smaczków, wysyłajcie. Jestem ciekaw jak bardzo upośledzony jest rynek książki elektronicznej i jak często piraci muszą poprawiać po wydawcach. Miłej nocy, dnia, poranka, czegokolwiek! ;P
