Monopoly wasn't invented by the Parker Brothers, nor the man they gave it credit for. In 1904, Monopoly was originally called The Landlord's Game, and was invented by a radical woman. Elizabeth Magie's original game had not one, but two sets of rules to choose from.
One was called "Prosperity", where every player won money anytime another gained a property. And the game was won by everyone playing only when the person with the least doubled their resources. A game of collaboration and social good.
The second set of rules was called "Monopoly", where players succeeded by taking properties and rent from those with less luck rolling the dice. The winner was the person who used their power to eliminate everyone else.
Magie's mission was to teach us how different we feel when playing Prosperity vs Monopoly, hoping that it would one day change national policies.
When the Parker Bros adopted the game, they erased the "Prosperity" rules and celebrated "Monopoly".
Imagine a publishing house with the mission of making knowledge and insights available to everybody for free, while ensuring high standards.
Well, the three universities of Berlin and the Charité have now joined forces to do just that.
They founded "Berlin Universities Publishing". Neither authors not readers pay. The pdf of books are freely available under a Creative Commons licence.
It's called "Diamond Open Access". They're just starting up. Much more to come.
While doing very important work, I stumbled upon this little corner of the web: https://doqmeat.com/sites/
What a treat! I wish my website can ever be half as cool as half of 'em
These days I am inching towards starting hardware hacking, mostly for home improvement. I imagine if all my software hobby-projects were hardware projects. My house would look like a mess. It'd be beautiful I think.
It’s disheartening to see AI reactionism lead my community to a 180° on copyright.
Everyone is merrily attacking LibGen now. If it didn’t exist, big tech companies would still find training data, it just wouldn’t be accessible to regular people.
While we still have the chance, we must avenge the future generations who will not get their own opportunity for retribution or self-defense.

Satan, I hate advertisement in public spaces so much. They have infiltrated my university, and the public transport station, and they even make these incredibly annoying noises.
Stop the enshittification of public space!
Neurotypicals can have an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Common Lisp, as a treat
Day 1: I wanna do everything -> choice paralysis -> nothing gets done
Day 2: I don't wanna do anything -> lethargy -> nothing gets done
Day 3: goto Day 1

Call me crazy, but I cut the luxury items first when I need to save money. A country shouldn't be stripping disabled people of healthcare or school kids of food to eat so a techno-welfare queen can go to Mars.
