Googles Script für die neue Bevorzugte-Quellen-Funktion ist ein Honeypot. Viele Seiten, deren RSS ich nutze, zeigen das plötzlich an.
Neben Tracking macht das die Seiten noch mehr von Google abhängig. Ich halte meine Webseiten frei von so einem Tracking. Am besten direkt die Blocklisten des Pihole mit dem Script von Google aktualisieren.

Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0

A verifiable credential is a specific way to express a set of claims made by an issuer, such as a driver's license or an education certificate. This specification describes the extensible data model for verifiable credentials, how they can be secured from tampering, and a three-party ecosystem for the exchange of these credentials that is composed of issuers, holders, and verifiers. This document also covers a variety of security, privacy, internationalization, and accessibility considerations for ecosystems that use the technologies described in this specification.

Just randomly thinking about how I can write a valid HTML page and it will work on any browser, and on any server, on the internet.

It would be really cool if any ActivityPub post I made essentially followed the same expectation, wouldn’t it?

What is the Shadow DOM?

The #shadowDOM is a web standard that enables encapsulation of #HTML and #CSS,
allowing developers to create components with isolated styling and structure.

Those so called web components are like custom HTML-Elements, but with all the utilities and properties of built-in HTML-Elements. You can roughly think of it like React Components, but with plain VanillaJS.

A new `/llms.txt` file has been proposed to standardize how LLMs interact with websites. This Markdown file, placed in the root directory, provides brief background info, guidance, and links to detailed files, helping LLMs quickly understand key content and process website information. Companies like Anthropic are already adopting this standard, further fueling the rise of unreliable AI search engines.
