    "we will redistribute power by inventing new property rights that you buy with fake internet money" is definitely a sensible proposal

    what's actually going on in the "web 3" thread is dreaming up new ways to get people to rent stuff but pretending that they own it

    it's kind of a new spin on the "sharing economy", where we pretend people own their labour but actually big platform companies do

    Web3 is a jargon term anyway, just like Web 2.0 was. It’s not a protocol. I can say we are on Web 1, 2, 3 or 25. Crypto people are just using the term Web3 in order to stamp their authority on the internet.

    Imagine the idealism necessary to think people would markup the content they produced such that it might be useful to other people outside of the immediate context in which it was created.

    They will instead obfuscate it as much as possible with fucked up javascript.

    The web 3.0 was already claimed by the RDF semantic web movement. It wasn't correct then, it isn't correct now. Partly because it implies that we're in a web 2.0 world still, and we very much isn't, partly because it isn't built on web tech. https://twitter.com/voxpelli/status/1442540075800223749?s=20

    My thought on the web3 discussion: there is absolutely something interesting with a lot of positive potential there, but if you buy into a bunch of Techno Utopian ideology that blinds you to the fact that power dynamics exist everywhere, you’re simply repeating past mistakes.

    it isn’t Web3 unless it comes from the aria live region of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript—otherwise it’s just sparkling blockchain

    1/ The EU proposal to make USB-C mandatory on all devices is making the rounds, so time for a quick overview 🧵 on the origin of the standard, the issues with it and what is coming next.

    Let’s start: Who is behind it, what do they want and how do they make money?

    5 out of 5
    This app is fantastic! It's the only app I've used that splits receipts so quickly and easily, and I've tried a lot!

    The Good

    This is by far the best app for splitting receipts. It's mainly designed for splitting receipts out at a restaurant/bar, but works equally as well for splitting things like grocery receipts.

    You start by taking a picture of the receipt and it does a decent job of auto-recognizing all the items on the receipt. Then you start adding people and assigning items on the receipt to which people had them. If two people shared an item, you can tag both people on that item, and it splits it between everyone who shared that item.

    After you've categorized all the items on the receipt, you can enter how much you want to tip, and it will also split the tip proportionally based on how much everyone's share of the bill was! At the end, you get a nice list of each person and how much they owe.

    The app has nothing to do with actually transferring money between people, so you're expected to either have everyone throw the right amount of cash on the table, or have everyone send money electronically to the one person who pays the bill. It's great because it is specifically designed to just split the receipt, so it's super optimized for just that task.

    The Not-So-Good

    Don't expect to be able to get back to any past receipts in this app, it's not for recording a history of things, it's really more an in-the-moment kind of app.

    The app does have a way to have other people join a bill to split a bill live instead of scanning a receipt, but I am much less impressed with that feature. It seems to be a bit complicated to join a receipt and is then more limited in how you can use it while in that mode.

    Yup, this about sums it up. A lot of centralization (re: tech billionaires) exists because "it's easier, and people want it."

    That doesn't mean that it's necessary or desirable.

    However, in its current instantiation, most of decentralization a la "web3" is just grift & greed.
