But why do we need another high-level language, and why should it be W3C's domain to come up with it? One of the biggest mistakes with the web platform was using Javascript as the singular first-class way to implement executable logic on the web, and now when WASM is on the verge of becoming a reality, it looks like we are heading down the same path for web-based graphics.

If you ask me, W3C should create a single low-level standard for how to interact with graphics hardware from the web, and leave it up to 3rd parties to solve the problem of how developers should interface with it.

> You're severely downplaying the amount of educational content that it has to offer.

That cannout outweigh Elsagate stuff. Educational content could be on smaller platforms, and there even could be platforms to find it on those smaller platforms.

> In the end, it's basically what you make of it.

No, it's thousands of channels and hundreds thousands of videos designed to mentally abuse children, and for months and months, while parents begged YouTube to even take notice, autoplay beelined to this stuff from cartoons. That's what you get from algorithms designed to maximize "engagement".

> You can find a wealth of diverse channels to watch and grow from, or you can watch drivel.

We're talking about things aimed at toddlers. Oh, and initially also YouTube for Kids. When you talk about "unfettered access" and simply blame it on parents, it just shows you are downplaying something you might not even have looked into.

Apart from the Elsagate subreddit, which has a lot of crap but also important posts buried among it, you probably can still enter "learn colors" or "Minecraft Monster School" or a lot of other things into YouTube, and maybe click on some related videos of videos in the search results. I promise, it won't take long to find something that can ruin your day.

I think this is an ungenerous reading of the parent. The fact there are disinformation campaigns running all the time is known beyond a shadow of a doubt. Are Russia and China _solely_ behind the bad press that tech is getting? Decidedly not. But do they also benefit, as in, Chinese and Russian tech companies benefit if American and European ones are damaged? Yes. IMO they are busy frying bigger fish, but I have little doubt that given the chance to tip the scale of public opinion this way or that, they'd prefer tech companies catch some flack.

This is the same problem with "news" on the internet.

I believe that copyright should be eternal and one should be able to profit from their works for as long as their works are found desirable by other people.

There is nothing to be gained by abolishing copyright. Our culture will not become richer. Statistically speaking, very few creators can build works of art as valuable as the ones that their works are based on. The works that have contributed the most, by far, are all original works.

What is hidden behind these movements is another facet of the socialist utopia, which does away with merit and wants equality of outcome for everyone, which is impossible to achieve, as it has been proven again and again in history.

There are more stories like that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churches_of_Peace In one case lutherans were not very welcome so they were only allowed to build three churches from wood, loam and straw, without steeples within time limit of 1 year, outside city limits. This was of course to prevent building of any large permanent structure. Lutherans built magnificent churches, two of them surviving to this day. https://www.google.pl/search?q=swidnica+kosciol+pokoju

>My reasoning to assume so is a wholly intuitive instinct that all ultra-high technology societies converge in their moral and ethical norms to a common limit.

We don't know that. We also don't know if the prime directive of aliens is the same as ours. By that I mean that whatever aliens may be visiting us may not be competitive whatsoever. Maybe their planet didn't have the same explosion with life that ours did so it's relatively empty of competition. In this case cooperating with others to expand as an instinct would be much more beneficial than competing. There is also no tangible evidence of the cosmos swarming with life, on planets or traveling so it might also be that -given how long it takes for planets to form stable orbits and how long it took on Earth for humans to appear and develop instruments to observe the universe- the universe is for the time being relatively empty of life. Some people revisited the drake equation and approached it as a coin flip: Sure there is a 50/50 chance but it's either/or, so based on their calculations the most likely scenario is for 0-2 times life forming on our galaxy. And FTL is still science fiction so it might be that the only species that can visit us are coming from other galaxies and have evolved to survive for billions of years. At the same time thanks to kepler we now know that planets with the characterists of earth are rather rare as are solar systems like ours. But there are a myriad of other planets with conditions too hard for humans but good enough for life found on Earth. In this case it might have been that some sort of life exists in the cosmos but it evolves much more slowly compared to us and thus needs a few extra billion years to reach space travel. So maybe the universe is experiencing it's first explosion of life and we are one of the first multi-cell organisms or step out of the water. Who knows.

Also we don't know how technology would have evolved should it be that Earth had a different composition. Like for example metals are fairly rare on the crust but yet they are fundamental to our function. Maybe a planet that has a 10% metal crust would have evolved towards electricity much faster than us. Or a planet with lower gravity and lower or no magnetosphere could mean that whatever species developed there could have achieved space travel much faster and easier thus increasing the incentive( in human terms) of developing ftl. Right now ftl is sci-fi for us but remember that yes, it was the military who developed the internet but all the applications and the development of the science behind it came once more people could toy with it.

> It creates a situation in which every individual using the internet violates, or benefits from the violation of, civil law every day.

That's the problem of the internet, not of intellectual property. And it would be easily solved by technology in the near future.

> It creates a situation in which individuals cannot be trusted to run code on hardware they own.

No it doesn't. It's not a matter of trust, it's a matter of pirating material, which is theft.

> It creates the conditions for censorship on online platforms.

No it does not. People will not be banned from expressing their opinion online if their opinion doesn't contain anything copyrighted.

> Just end copyright. The idea that software, music, movies, books and so on will cease to exist is a complete farce.

What is a complete farce is people that don't understand that without the economic motivation, most people don't do things.

Piracy has created huge problems in the past for home computers, for example. It was impossible to monetize the creation of a good game, although most people have played those games, due to piracy, which killed a lot of game software houses around 25-30 years ago.

> I'll keep writing software. You will too. Most of us here will.

Yeah right. Would Red Dead Redemption 2 be made with such an economic model? no, it would not. Who would have funded it? no one.

His book is fairly good and well-written, but I know what you mean.

I'm currently helping an author who wants to write a book and make some money with it (she wrote books in the past and worked with publishers). I explained to her how the self-publishing business works and she also had the same reaction. It's possible to write high-quality content and get fairly compensated, but you should definitely know that most people seem to be content with sub-par books. The average quality is really bad and people seem to like it (e.g. another very profitable niche: erotic books, Shades of Grey is just one of many of them).

Amazon is very generic. If you want to build an audience, you should stick to Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Snapchat, Slack/chat groups, write a blog, do vlogs and videos, organize local and offline groups, events and other methods. You can then build a whole community around a niche and sell way more than a book. This is also what I've recommended to her because this is how you build high-quality communities.
