🌐 El silencioso regreso del control central
Internet nació descentralizado: protocolos abiertos, servidores propios. Hoy la IA centraliza en el punto de interpretación: ya no navegamos, recibimos respuestas sintetizadas. Google/Meta concentraron atención, ahora OpenAI/Anthropic median conocimiento. La tecnología descentralizada existe (ActivityPub, RSS), el problema es cultural. Solución: autoalojar, federarse, diversificar.

if midi information as output is valid, and you consider orca a CA, then I'd say yes, it's very useful. It's likely the most efficient UX in terms of density for livecoding beating 1d textual representation. And it allows for the encoding of data in a very dense way.

Someone else mentioned wireworld which works the same way, if you use the edge of the world as IO

Neural nets are not too far from cellular automata too, only they don't map to a rigid grid. But for tasks that aren't sequential, or can be distributed, CA are very efficient, think of Green Arrays for example.
wiki.xxiivv.com/site/neural_ne…
You can also consider the memory model behind BQN and APL as CA, as state changes on memory is applied non-deterministically.

the experiments with making a Turing machine in orca were definitely on my mind! And neural networks merge with CAs inti neural CAs, so yeah, it’s there.
Thanks for the reference!

LibreOffice vs ONLYOFFICE - Which One Is Right For You?
Both are solid open source office suites but which one should you choose? This in-depth article compares LibreOffice and ONLYOFFICE across features, usability, and real-world experience.Roland Taylor (It's FOSS)
And ONLYOFFICE project has been forked, so now there is an alternate open source version. I think its called Euro-Office (?).
Supported by a whole fleet of European open source companies, including NextCloud.
It will be interesting to see how that project develops.

Piracy Just Won a $1 Billion Case (Sony v. Cox)
Sony thought it won $1 Billion from ISPs for users' copyright infringement. Instead, the Supreme Court just handed down the most upsetting 7-2 Opinion Hollywood and the Music Labels have ever seen.
The Amusing Thing is that a previous case where Sony was the Defender was used as part of the Defense of Cox from Sony's Claim.

I remember seeing the artist Ben Grosser speak a few years ago, where he said something along the lines of 'I'm not a good programmer, but I am good enough to figure out a way to do what I want to do'. I think this is a great way to think about code.
