I wrote about Emoji ID, an idea I had back in 2018 around three emoji representing you as a unique ID within federated social spaces: blog.moodle.net/20...

Why did I just found www.snopes.com ??? I ever wondered why there is no ultimate fact-checking website. Now I know ... Cause there is since 1994!

I'm not sure yet how far I can take it, but if I fit all the pieces together I might end up with something useful. Text parsing is a bit tricky but it will work, following links and building a global tree is doable, letting users save interesting links is simple, commenting on search results is something I want.
🌈 Thomas Rosen
What about letting people give tags or some kind of voting, to inform about the quality of the webpage and to also challenge fake-news and radical websites. This shouldn't be much more data and could possible greatly benefit the search-results

I've been having a lot of interesting dreams lately. One of the most interesting ones is where I stole a jet, went on SpaceX's first manned moon mission, and skydived all in one dream. I went skydiving before, and it worth doing at least once, never stole a jet and probably never will, and I guess I can only dream about going to the moon, although it is a life goal to go into space.

Uhh!!! I love those dreams! They always give me the ultimate motivation to get out of bed and change the world (but then, I also just wanna sleep in to dream a bit further)

Apple doesn't seem to run ads, at all, in mainland Europe. At least I have never seen it on TV in Sweden, Germany, or the Netherlands. Instead carriers have ads for their networks and sometimes pitch in a "get phone X free with subscription Y". This is done with new phones most of the time. The S7 was released this month, the iPhone was released half a year ago.

I'm from Germany. Here Apple runs a campaign, each year, short after the release. At the end of every spot, the logo of the carrier, who sponsored the ad is shown.
💬 Subreply
For user lists like @timeline, following, followers and country, what would you like to see for each member, the number of entries, replies or updates?

I noticed this trend a few years ago. I was a pretty good web/ui designer for a few years. Then I decided to re-learn programming, built Sublevel and now I have a full-time job as a software engineer. I still think design is better than code, but it's hard to explain to someone why a design is better than other. With code it's easier because it does or doesn't do what the end user is asking.
🌈 Thomas Rosen
I think, sometimes you can convince people by an example(, that design is not about beauty): compare the medium.com editor with Word 2007. Of course, it's trendy flat, but that's coming from a more important point: it's missing the distracting buttons at the top and info lines at the bottom. It just focuses on the writing, not on word art.
🌈 Thomas Rosen
Can't you detect that? For example, by simulating a keystroke and waiting for the event. If it's not there after 50ms you could show an submit button.
