#Enclosures

2025-05-11

I blogged about what connects today’s Internet to historical land enclosures—once open and communal, now fenced off by corporate interests.There's something about a karaoke API, RSS feeds, and how what was once shared is now siloed.

"Capitalism and extreme poverty: A global analysis of real wages, human height, and mortality since the long 16th century
[…]
• Data on real wages suggests that, historically, extreme poverty was uncommon and arose primarily during periods of severe social and economic dislocation, particularly under colonialism.
• The rise of capitalism from the long 16th century onward is associated with a decline in wages to below subsistence, a deterioration in human stature, and an upturn in premature mortality.
• In parts of South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, wages and/or height have still not recovered."

incomes are just below extreme poverty between 1750 and 1900.

India daily income per person for a family of four, with one family member working 12 months a year as an unskilled urban labourer, decadal averages (1 = extreme poverty line).

Le livre "Vive les communs numériques !", paru en 2024, est passionnant.

On y explique ce que sont "les communs" au sens historique du terme, les "communs numériques" apparus avec les 1ers ordinateurs et le #LogicielLibre, les "biens publics", les tentations des #enclosures d'abord physiques (en Angleterre au 16e siècle, pour délimiter des terrains d'agriculture et de pâturage qui profitaient avant à tous et qui deviennent alors propriétés privées), puis logicielles, etc.

Figure 1 du livre "Vive les communs numériques" de Serge Abitbool et François Bancilhon, titrée "Les communs entre propriété privée et bien publics". 

La page est organisée en trois sections séparées par des barrières verticales. 

A gauche, la zone "propriété privée" avec quelques exemples : Google Maps, Vaccin Pfizer-BioNTech, brevers, livres avec copyright... 

Au milieu, la zone "Les communs" : vaccin domaine public, les résultats scientifiques, les bien communaux... et parmi tous ces communs, un cadre titré "communes numériques" qui comprend notamment Wikipédia, OpenStreet Map, les logiciels libres... 

A droite, la zone "Public" qui comprendre : les bibliothèques publiques, les monuments historiques, les hôpitaux publics, l'Armée...

The only reason we don't have to pay for air is because capitalists can't put a fence around it.

"The #law is the most powerful engine through which ideologies can become self-replicating engines. John Locke’s theory of property as the endowed right of white men to use and to produce worked like witchcraft—the natural world, which had sustained societies for thousands of years, could suddenly be taken by force, enclosed, and tilled for the sole profit of one man, with trespassers punished. The conversion of land into one person’s permanent property was not permissible under the indigenous populations who had long occupied it, nor was such a thing permissible anywhere in the world except Europe—and even there, only after the enclosure movements of the 1600s."

Following the topic of the combo of #electronics, #enclosures and #moisture, I found this very good summary of the issues involved: agmcontainer.com/blog/how-to/e

I used the formulas in the MIL-STD-2073-1 standard cited there (which is for packaging, not for enclosures) to estimate the amount of silica gel I should be using, and the result is about 40 grams. That is a lot more than what I used in the enclosure! I'm not sure how to make that amount fit in such a tight space 🤔
