    Author here, thanks for those tough nuts :) I am working on a successor of this POC called rich-rss [0], which contains a full rewrite of rss-proxy in a strongly typed language. [0…

    This legal agreement idea does not work at all. In most cases this agreement would have an expiration, only include specific actions and most likely could be withdrawn unilateral a…

    IMO nuclear power won't help us in the climate crisis. The inertia to change our technologies, behaviour... is already extremely large, with nuclear energy (which is very limited) …

    There are people [0] who claim that air traffic will be the first target of this development. It is very fragile, has a huge attack surface and efficient counter strategies are non…

    This feeds into my dystopian believes. I a couple of years those drones will be affordable to every individual. This individual will then savely engage in a drone strike against ot…

    I disagree. I find the it wasteful, that every source will implement their way of rendering data. If we ignore the ad-problem for a moment, I would love if RSS would be the output …

    I created a automated HTML->Feed mapper [0], that simply analyzes the structure and offers you potential feeds. [0] https://github.com/damoeb/rss-proxy/

    Boredom is a totally underestimated and undervalued mental state these days. IMO it's quite difficult to become bored these days with all the distractions of the Internet. Many gre…

    I agree. SM operates on a subconscious level by exploiting all kinds of cognitive biases. Rational thinking won't solve this issue for the majority

    I wrote a general purpose tool for html to rss mapping, maybe what you are looking for. You can run it as a docker container. https://github.com/damoeb/rss-proxy

    I don't believe this will work but due to its complexity. And even if it will work, the life expectancy of some parts like solar panels is rather short. IMO projects like fog catch…

    There are other opensource alternatives you might be interested in too [0], [1] and [2]. For rss-proxy you do not have to deal with selectors, though the feed quality won't be as g…

    If you want to go crazy with RSS and build your entire information stream on top of it, you might need some glue code that semi-automatically turns static markup to rss [0]. (Discl…

    I did not know this one. The difference is that the first one extracts the feeds automatically, the second one not. Here the user has to define everything.

    To me RSS is exactly that. I don't see the advantage of converting an HTML to RDF because it would cover the entire spectrum. All the semantics might be lost. RSS is the smallest c…
