and tagged it with iPhone 7 USB-C Manton Reece expresses an opinion similar to mine when it comes to the new MacBook Pros with nothing but USB-C ports and the comparisons of them to a headphone-less iPhone.
I have no problems with USB-C on the new MacBook Pro. It will be a small headache at the beginning, for sure. But because it’s a standard there’s no long-term compatibility risk the way there is with removing the 3.5mm headphone jack.

and tagged it with The open web Jeremy Keith writes about being on Twitter for ten years and comments on how things have changed on Twitter at large and, more importantly, on Twitter for him as he for the past few years has been treating it as nothing but a syndication service. I do the same and for the past few months I’ve visited Twitter.com very rarely and I no longer have any Twitter client installed on my iOS devices. It’s liberating to know that you own your content and as long as you keep your site running it’ll live on regardless of the rise and fall of various social networks.
I’m not sure if my Twitter account will still exist ten years from now. But I’m pretty certain that my website will still be around.
That last paragraph rings so true to me. I intend to live for at least fifty more years and I hope my blog will be with me all the way. How many huge companies have existed for fifty years? How many of those have not changed in significant ways in fifty years? Do we really think that the social media of today will preserve our ideas, our quips and snapshots, and our memories – happy and sad – for the foreseeable future? Or do we not care if they don’t?

and tagged it with Links The open web At every turn, right from the beginning, [the modern journalist] made horrible websites, laden with ads, demonstrated no understanding of the medium, and then blamed the medium itself for their inadequacies. As an industry they have always done and said the wrong thing about the open web.
Stop listening to them. They aren’t here to help.
– The Tragedy/Farce of the Open Web according to journalists – Baldur Bjarnason
Baldur Bjarnason makes a compelling case for why we shouldn’t listen when journalists keep telling us that the open web is dead. The open web is very much alive, and very important.

Daniel Jalkut on the price of GPL:
The price of GPL is fairly obvious and easy to understand, even if there is some bickering about what constitutes “linked code.” You don’t have to be a legal expert to get the gist of it: if you want to link your software with GPL code, you must also make your software’s source code available. Specifically, you must make your software’s source code available to your customers, under a GPL-compatible license. You have to give your code away. That’s the price of GPL.
Many developers understand, and view the price of GPL as perfectly justified, while others (myself included) find it unacceptable. So what am I supposed to do? Not use any GPL source code at all in any of my proprietary products? Exactly. Because the price of GPL is too much for me, and I don’t steal source code.

Exactly. GPL comes with a price and like all things (that comes with a price), sometimes it’s worth it, sometimes its not.

and tagged it with Links The open web Webmentions
- Twitter’s 140-character limit and easy retweeting encourage and amplify negative tweets. Sincerity is less common. Everything is an opportunity for a joke.
- Widely followed, long-time Twitter users don’t find the joy they used to when interacting with followers. Some have retreated to private Slack channels, at the cost of public discussion and approachability.
- Developers have never completely forgiven Twitter for crippling the API. This doesn’t directly impact most users anymore, but it’s a backdrop that gives every new Twitter feature a tone of distrust. Progress is slow.
Meanwhile, blog comments have slowly been killed off over that same period. The rise of social networks, combined with the technical problems of fighting blog comment spam, pushed most bloggers to prefer answering questions on Twitter.

and tagged it with JavaScript Links Turbolinks seems to be a reasonable way to implement a more ”app like” feel to websites without falling into the trap of endless JavaScript dependencies and page bloat.
Turbolinks makes navigating your web application faster. Get the performance benefits of a single-page application without the added complexity of a client-side JavaScript framework. Use HTML to render your views on the server side and link to pages as usual. When you follow a link, Turbolinks automatically fetches the page, swaps in its
, and merges its , all without incurring the cost of a full page load.

and tagged it with John Green TED The world is changed by our maps of the world.
John Green’s TEDx Talk is a great from beginning to end. The tidbit about how the creation of a ”Paper Town” led to the creation of a real town was new to me and totally in my wheel house.

and tagged it with Links Svensk politik Alliansen i sin nuvarande form har nått vägs ände. Moderaternas kraftiga vändning åt det konservativa hållet riskerar att lämna svensk politik utan liberala alternativ. Blockpolitiken leder till en begränsning av den politiska debatten. Det är en utveckling som behöver brytas. Därför bör allianspartierna gå till val med enskilda valmanifest 2018.
Jag håller med helt och fullt. Liberalismen lyser verkligen med sin frånvaro inom svensk politik nu. Att luckra upp Alliansen skulle kunna leda till intressanta samarbeten mellan (de ibland få) liberalerna inom ”Liberalerna”, Centerpartiet och Miljöpartiet.
Jag är glad att Centern, som jag röstade på i senaste valet, enhälligt röstade emot de nya asylreglerna men om de vill ha min röst i kommande val så kan de inte sitta så hårt ihop med de nya, brunblå Moderaterna.
