I did the `human.json` thing!
If you're a blogger who I've met in person, and you're not using AI or LLMs for your content, let me know and I'll add you to my list.
@Edent Oooh! Looking forward to reading this more carefully! … Since it’s json, would it be feasible to add a property for including a public key? Perhaps this can further be reinforced through a cryptographic web of trust? 🤔

@rinkside you can suggest it - but cryptographic webs are a usability nightmare. Every single one has failed.
Maybe the next one won't. But I don't have high hopes.

@Edent Will have to read more about that issue — definitely not an area of expertise. Thank you!
These days I’m digging through old … ideas? … that may have been pushed aside in the rush to corporatize and centralize as we try building an alternate, more human network. 😊

@rinkside yeah, things like Keybase tried something similar - but they got acquihired by Zoom during the pandemic.
I think, pragmatically, If I've stuck something on the website I control, that should be "good enough".

@Edent its showing up now. I'll get you added to mine later once I'm not at work.
@Edent you should be vouched for now from https://parsecsreach.org

@emily_s likewise from my end 🙂

@Edent you were on my human.json before you created your own, innit!

@Edent The design is human.
Meme aside, yeah, I find it weird the use of JSON (which many people say is more machine-friendly than human-friendly) for that. Reminds me of https://humanstxt.org/, that uses .txt which seems more human-friendly.
Also, the "web" thing reminds me a bit of Keybase/Keyoxide. I hope it's not a case of missing research of existent work. Reminds me of this https://fliptomato.wordpress.com/2007/03/19/medical-researcher-discovers-integration-gets-75-citations/. I wonder if this could be proposed as an extension of one the earlier projects…
@qgustavor @Edent I had a go at contacting the humans.txt folks last year I think (maybe a bit before that), suggesting it was an idea whose time had come, but it was all very quiet there. Interested to see the human.json idea develop.

@Edent Ah, I see FOAF has returned once again.
@Meyerweb @Edent ha, yes, I referenced FOAF only 18 months ago... https://andypiper.co.uk/2024/08/29/the-web-made-by-humans/

@Edent Thanks for posting a reminder. https://slott56.github.io/2026-03-20_human_json.html

@Edent Yes, the pgp key would reside on a self-controlled server. Isn’t there a feature with keys to build a web of trust through in-person key signing parties?
Host a human.json with a property pointing to a key that when inspected is bolstered by a human-verified web of trust. That’s where my thinking is. 😊

@andypiper @Edent Have you looked through XFN at all? The goal there was admittedly to represent relationships in page source rather than metadata, but I imagine many of the general concepts could be of interest.

@andypiper @Edent it’s not on every blog post, it’s only on the top-most index page. Should it be present on every page?

@slott56 oh, you're right, I see it on the top-level page, but the browser extension is not picking it up. Hmm! how odd.

@G3rt «Guarda, mi sembra chiaro che abbiamo letture e priorità diverse, ed è assolutamente legittimo. Io ho espresso un punto di vista basato su come interpreto certi fatti politici, non su giudizi personali.
Non ho interesse a trasformare questa in una gara a chi ha ragione: semplicemente partiamo da presupposti differenti.
Per me la discussione può anche chiudersi qui, ognuno con le proprie idee.»

@antonuzzo1 Dici a me che scrivo in preda a uno sfogo ideologico e citi "ad mentula" due punti che da soli non dicono proprio nulla di come questa destra è arrivata al governo 😂
Abbi pazienza ma non mi metto a fare analisi politiche su un social con 500 char a disposizione e senza nemmeno sapere con chi sto parlando.
Comunque, personalmente non ho nulla contro le "ideologie", guardo invece con sospetto i luoghi comuni e le persone che la propria ideologia la nascondono dietro gli slogan.

@kertinker @landelare it occurred to me just now if there's an explicit GL context initialization step needed that is missing entirely, then GLEW might be reporting 0 for most or all extensions depending on the platform you're on

"
3. Le accuse storiche non sostituiscono gli argomenti.
Tirare in ballo ‘padri politici’, ‘esili’, ‘bombe e stragi’ serve solo a creare un clima emotivo, non a discutere seriamente.
La storia è complessa e non si presta a slogan usati come clava politica.

2. La Costituzione non è un feticcio immobile.
È stata pensata per essere modificabile proprio attraverso gli strumenti previsti dalla stessa Carta.
Parlare di ‘deformazione’ senza entrare nel merito delle proposte è solo propaganda.
Se una riforma è sbagliata, la si critica nel merito, non evocando fantasmi del passato.

1. La legittimità democratica non è opzionale.
Il governo in carica non è ‘capitato lì per caso’: è stato eletto da milioni di persone.
Se la volontà popolare non piace, non diventa automaticamente illegittima.
La democrazia funziona così: si vota, si governa, si giudica alle elezioni successive.

@G3rt "Capisco il tuo punto di vista, ma la tua ricostruzione è più uno sfogo ideologico che un’analisi dei fatti.
Parli di ‘banda di fascisti’ e di una Costituzione da difendere, ma dimentichi due elementi fondamentali:.
