A blog post with every HTML element - One for all the web development nerds out there. A few weeks ago I updated all the HTML tags on the website so I found this post mostly fascinating. However I'm reading offline on iOS, so no way to open up devtools to have a look at the page HTML, which made the post a bit tedious. Great reference article, there are so many details to consider. It's amazing how much thought has gone into even just HTML, nevermind CSS and Javascript. www.patrickweaver.net #

Running a Mainstream Linux Distro Natively on Apple Silicon: Fedora Asahi Remix First Impressions - I've been following at a distance the progress being made by the Asahi team. It's super cool that there's a Linux distro that runs on Apple Silicon. I wish Apple would make it easier though. It's strange to me that they are so scared of Linux. I mean they don't seriously think that regular users are going to switch do they? As far as I can tell this would only ever be used by power users and developers. OSX is a tremendous OS for most users, they should be more confident in their creation imho. I also wonder what the Asahi team think of the recent controversy with Red Hat becoming hostile to Fedora. I'd feel better if Ubuntu ran on Apple Silicon. jasoneckert.github.io #

The Exploding World of ETFs - I was mildly interested in the this just because it's become the hot topic in bitcoin circles. About 1/2 way through the article though, where he paints the picture of how broad ETFs can get, the thing that sparked my attention was the similarity with content curration. They are like currated content feeds but for stocks. It got me wondering about communities. If you and your friends wanted to invest in the communities that surrounded you, how could you do that? Wouldn't an ETF type model be worth considering? You wouldn't necesarily make money, though you might, maybe the value you got back would be in a more vibrant community that had currents of activity that alligned with your interests. The currator in me thinks hyperlocal ETFs might be interesting as a vehicle for improving the places we live in. Of course there could be downsides too, getting the balance between mainstream and fringe might be a challenge. jameslavish.substack.com #
