The Internet Archive only has two of my books (and one translation) available online. Right now my puvliusher is suing the @internetarchive on my behalf. But my publisher-owned by Rupert Murdoch--didn't ask me. I'm all for my books being available through them.

Ecma International recently approved the 2022 standard of ECMAScript. But there is something new in this edition that hasn't been part of prior editions, and this isn't a new programming feature. 🧵 hacks.mozilla.org/2022/06/th…

ECMAScript, from 2022 on, will be using a new alternative license. This new license is based on the W3C Document and Software license. So, what has changed, and why is this important?

Will start* using, there is still a process we follow :) it gets reapproved each year.

...Standards work more broadly. Ecma is now a home where projects can license according to their needs. This is a more light weight process and it makes me hopeful for what we can do in the future.

If anyone is interested, and would like to know the process or what their project can gain from going through a standards process, I am happy to answer and put you in touch with the right people! I think this was a great day for the open web, and open tech in general.

I really wish there was some more incentive to maintain existing web standards instead of just adding new stuff.

Learned the most amazing thing about Ruby yesterday. The String#reverse method doesn't do anything when you use it on strings **that are pictures of fish**
$ cat fish.rb fish = "><>" puts fish.reverse fish2 = "🐟" puts fish2.reverse $ ruby fish.rb ><> 🐟

ALT $ cat fish.rb fish = "><>" puts fish.reverse fish2 = "🐟" puts fish2.reverse $ ruby fish.rb ><> 🐟
