Just got notice that RIPE NCC will not be funding the #SmallWeb. Not surprising, since we havenāt had a single successful funding application and Iām done wasting my time with this crap. small-web.org will launch as a commercial service (host your own Small Web place for ~ā¬10/mo) and hopefully that will make Small Technology Foundation sustainable. Since everything we do is free and open, others will also be able to host Small Web places. Also, you can fund us directly: https://small-tech.org/fund-us

People go to Stack Overflow because the docs and error messages are garbage. TLDR exists because the docs and error messages are garbage. People ask ChatGPT for help because the docs and error messages are garbage. We are going to lose a generation of competence and turn programming into call-and-response glyph-engine supplicancy because we let a personality cult that formed around the PDP-11 in the 1970s convince us that it was pure and good that docs and error messages are garbage.
