@jens nodds in agreement

Older standards do get declared deprecated, but that means they'll remain in the books still to reference for historical reasons.

  • OFC a newer standard gets written and then oreambled to replace older ones.

This has been the norm for everyone regsrdless if DIN, ISO, IEC, IEEE or IETF....

  • After all, one may face something as per revious standard and may need the correct source to reference for it.

Imagine if IEC decided to basically scrap all other AC power connectors but IEC 6320 C19/C20, IEC60906-1 & IEC60309 125A 400 V 3L+N+PE 6h and tell electricians to "GTFO!" when it comes to anything else.

  • #NIST turning themselves into willingful helpers of #Trump makes them less reliable (or rather unreliable) and thus erodes the #USA in terms of #Standards!

This is worse than what the Nazis did with DIN, cuz even they didn't fuck with standardization AFAIK!

#TIL the reason that stories about children getting locked inside refrigerators don't come up anymore is because there was a standard established in 1956 banning fridges that cannot be escaped. ulse.org/standards-and-engagem #safety #design #standards

I’ll never forget the day when I got the call from Tim Berners-Lee, asking me if I would co-chair the W3C Technical Architecture Group, along with Peter Linss. I had previously been an elected member of the TAG, which I already counted as a great honor. And now, I was being asked to help lead this group during a time of great change. A “new guard” had been elected to the TAG, bringing […]

Steps Forward in Long-form Text

Some quick news about the Long-form Text project at the Social Web Foundation. After the publication of the draft FEP b2b8 ("Long-form Text"), the Social Web Foundation has been working with implementers to get more support for the Article data type, representing multi-paragraph text on the Fediverse. One of the big pain points has been how subscribers to long-form text from platforms like WordPress, WriteFreely, Plume and Ghost.org see the text in their microblogging platforms like […]

The #Fosstodon controversy is an excellent example of why the #decentralization of #Mastodon and the #Fediverse is not a panacea and not a substitute for #Justice.

As I have said on numerous occasions, what the world needs is broad agreement on comprehensive professional #moral, #ethical, #legal, and #procedural #standards for the operation of public private spaces that includes a firm commitment to #Equality and mechanisms for community and legal #accountability and an #appellate #process.

Garre said no, because those #schools would still need to meet the state’s #academic #standards & could not focus their #curriculum on those subjects. As a #CharterSchool, St. Isidore would have to meet those standards, too, Garre has argued.

Justice #ElenaKagan signaled skepticism of the proposed #Catholic #school, suggesting #CharterSchools are much like traditional #PublicSchools: They accept all applicants, they’re free, the state has a say in the #curriculum, the schools have to comply w/state #standards, & they can be closed by the state.
“When I look at #Oklahoma & its charter school program, these #schools look like regular public schools. These charter schools are, in every respect, equivalent to regular public schools”

There are also #secular implications of becoming a #CharterSchool. Charter #schools have more flexibility than traditional #PublicSchools, but there are rules about #teacher #qualifications, #curriculum #standards, #discipline processes, #employment terms, facility conditions & serving #students with #disabilities. Students are typically required to take standardized tests.

The way we log in and the way we pay online are starting to merge; it’s not just about convenience.
Browsers, wallets, and web standards are converging in ways that could reshape both identity and payments.
Here’s where to watch it happen.

7.5: Ariel & Christina Discuss: Four Great Things We Take for Granted and Ought to Fight to Keep

In these dark times of (American) political backsliding/the general rise of fascism in the Global North, Ariel and Christina consider four things that we'd made great progress on, to the point of taking those achievements for granted. Let's take the time to acknowledge them and the danger we are in of losing them. Because how can we fight for what we don't recognize as being incredible yet fragile?

PS: We definitely didn't plan on this coming out on the day of the Canadian federal election, but so it goes. Go forth and fight the fascists at the ballot box, friends.

@tante not only that, but I literally will refuse to buy, sell, use or even look at any device eith a "#CopilotKey" and/or marketed as #Copilot+ or having #Windows11 preinstalled to begin with!

If I had the €€€€€€ necessary to do it I'd start an #upcycling business (likely as cooperative) just to collect all the #surplus'd machines and put modern #Linux on them and sell those at rock-bottom pricing.
