End to search engine monopolies

#Draft

Webmasters should index their own websites
Websites can be communicated via social media (federated)

This avoids the need for a global web crawler, and thus prevents search engine monopolies.
This also reduces things like searching for Reddit posts on Google, instead of on Reddit.

Thinking about how to understand systems

Image
Table of Cohesion and Coupling (Source: https://feature-sliced.design/docs/reference/isolation/coupling-cohesion License: MIT | Copyright (C) 2018-2025 Feature-Sliced Design core-team) This is a method by which we understand systems in programming. As the image shows, cohesion is how much similar things are grouped together, and coupling is how much different groups are connected to one another. If I'm thinking about nature, there are a plethora of behaviors, but all of them have common fundamental behaviors. It is easy to understand it as how if we consider the known materials of the world, they are all built up from the same types of elements, which we call atoms. Elements of reality, as we could call them. At the same time, the combination of different elements is what makes reality wonderful, as otherwise everything would have been so stagnant or predictable. This is the general principle of art, to bring into attention a new perspective, and that is ingrained with every part o...

Energy Efficiency

#Draft Start by defining Power Density and Energy Density. Energy = VIt = Vq Describe Energy as the area of a rectangle with sides Voltage and Capacity or Charge (q=It) Contained. If this is the energy contained per unit mass of a material, this is it's Energy Density. Now, if we consider the energy utilized per unit time, that is Power Density. From this, you can know that for a given fuel, if its Power Density is Higher, its duration is lower. Now, this is the energy conversion for chemical batteries. We also often see the Power Density of Gasoline and other fuels mentioned, which unsurprisingly have the same units. In case of Gasoline and Wood, we take the Energy Density as the Heat of Combustion per unit mass. But Combustion is yet another chemical reaction, a redox reaction. Except that in this case, we utilize the heat instead of the flow of electrons. What are the other sources of energy? Another one would be the energy from motion (Wind, Water), Geothermal (Heat), Solar (Li...

That one time when I tried to download files from my slow uplink

It was when I was either in 9th or 10th. It should've been in 10th, because it was after I'd gotten used to hosting WordPress (wordpress.org) websites with MAMP, and that was after I knew how to host websites directly with Hostinger's 000webhost, x10hosting and other free hosting providers. I used to host forums based on Simple Machines Forum (SMF), to replicate the forums of San Andreas: Multiplayer (SA:MP) and the United Islands Freeroam (UIF) SA:MP server. We had a bustling Facebook community back in the day, for anything from Web Development, General Software Programming, Gaming, Memes, Game Development, 3D Modelling, etc. So, it was during that time, when I wanted to do a computer exhibition, and I ended up choosing to display how to host a website as my project. For that, I would have to get my tools in my pendrive. The tools were basically WordPress, a good WordPress theme, MAMP and No-IP Dynamic Update Client. I knew how to port forward to enable accessing files fro...
