It's imperative that we stop thinking in 20th century terms. The next window of opportunity may be decades, or 100s of years down the road.
The anti-cloud, distributed hypercooperation, and the anti-corporate people's AI will be possible, but they will only be possible if we stop repeating the same mistakes of the past.

There is a window of opportunity for distributed architecture to flourish. After that window, if the means of memorisation aren't seized the zombie carcasses of legacy empires will fight tooth and nail for hegemonic discourse of post-capitalism.

Most medium range mobiles are getting between 32gb - 64gb storage in the next 2 years, 8-core processors, and 5G bandwidth in 5 years.
When the basic capacity for local computation is satisfied for most uses, even some complex ones, the central "cloud" is made redundant.

There are people spacewalking this very moment, right now. In space.

Silicon Valley 2016 Diversity Report.
https://apps.revealnews.org/silicon-valley-diversity-list/
Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting surveyed 211 of the largest Silicon Valley tech companies that were required to submit EEO-1 diversity reports to the federal government for 2016.

@natecull A few modern languages (Rust, Javascript, Go, Io) have already agreeed that class-based OO is shite. This is progress. Slow, but progress nonetheless.

#Catalan General #Strike sees support across #Spain, including Madrid, #Basque Country, Valencia and other places, clearly undermining the narrative of Spanish nationalism.
Because so many in the National Guard were sent to repress in #Catalonia, their forces have been weakened elsewhere, which made it possible for 47 immigrants to escape a #Madrid detention centre.

Now #IPFS gateways in Spain are being blocked and man-in-the-middled. Solution is a local IPFS node or dark web.
The free and truly distributed web can't happen fast enough.
