Ah, OK. It sounds like a lot of maintenance and duplicity as opposed to keeping all SW somewhere central.

Haven't you found a good alternative to GH? Is GL not good enough? Is it license, governance, pricing…?

Just curious :)

I designed a simple PDF for the for the technique.

I have been using a similar template for a while, and it works well for me.

@tripu I agree. My understanding is that indeed reforestation should happen but it's no way near a solution.

This is up there with "carbon capture technology" as a distraction maneuver, deployed as part of greenwashing campaigns.

Is it me, or is there something very suspicious about claiming to fully offset emissions by planting trees?

I mean, if we magically had the resources, or the will, to plant as many as are necessary to offset all of our emissions, tomorrow, would the atmosphere behave exactly as if we committed collective suicide and stopped polluting altogether?

Trees take years to grow. Planting trees requires garden centres, watering, warehouses, transportation, machinery. Trees interact with the atmosphere and with their ecosystems in various ways. If a tree wasn't growing there in the first place, and the area isn't altered by humans, almost by definition there should be no tree there.

Besides all that, offsetting by planting trees seems a useful distraction and a heart-warming falsehood.

I'm not saying we should not reforest where we previously deforested, or even in new places if careful study advises to do so. But this image of new trees sprouting on the other side of the world to make up for all the pollution and the disruption we cause over here is a marketing scam.

In case you thought the Web was run by and dominated by giant tech companies, you might be surprised to find that it is upheld by small companies run by people like you and me, in fact. You too can get involved in setting the direction of travel.

Tonight in "Coralie puts random things in perspective", I wanted to point out that #OpenAI losing US$ 540M last year is roughly equivalent to what it would cost to run #W3C for 60 years.

W3C is the World Wide Web Consortium —which is responsible for creating the open standards that make the Web work across platforms and devices— and was created 29 years ago by Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee.

Yes, the same Web that is scraped for generative AI training.

Fund the better causes!

is beautiful, as I remembered it. But I'm surprised to see the streets in the city centre so littered with rubbish.
