Introducing Web Numbers

Domains? Where we’re going, we don’t need domains!

Get ready for an exciting new (old?) way to address (small) web sites in 2026.

Web Numbers

Domains? Where we’re going, we don’t need domains! Until the end of this year, the only way to have a secure web site is to have it accessible via a domain name. That, however, is changing.

I like the idea, but how do we keep an IP going from provider to provider? IPs are even more fragile than domains and changing that fact seems near impossible.

Instead, couldn’t a trusted nonprofit (say @eff or ISRG) buy a gTLD from ICANN, become a registrar and rent out domains at (very close to) self-cost with no insane price hikes? Picture what ISRG did with @letsencrypt, but for domains.

Running costs for this would currently be a fixed fee of US$6,250 per calendar quarter and a transaction fee of US$0.25[1]. These costs could be split on all registrants.

Some would probably say that .org is the answer, but the PIR drama in 2020[2] shows how fragile this system is. We *need* a TLD that doesn’t need to be saved by the @eff from hostile takeovers.

Imagine: more registrants would mean lower prices. That’s far from how gTLDs function now. A sudden spike in interest could introduce a sudden price increase.

@mikael @eff Migration can be built at the app layer (Kitten already supports it natively for all apps created with it). Both servers would have to be online for a period of time to allow people’s address books time to update.

I do like your non-commercial TLD idea too. Would love to see that and it would be a nice complementary tool. Could easily be done as an EU-funded project if the political will was there.

(Basically, that was/is what I was hacking at the second-level domain level using the Public Suffix List until this latest Let’s Encrypt development.)

A new day. A new chance to succeed.

Bread dough rising on the counter, warming from its night in the fridge. A few more minutes and I'll light the oven.

It all takes time.

More than time, it takes timing.

Doing the right thing at the right moment. Being able to recognize that the dough is ready for baking. Knowing how long it takes to bring the oven up to temp and starting it before I need it.

Acting in the right moment.

May you find all the right moments in your day #today

All the slaughters we read are part of retaliation against successful hits of #Palestinian #Resistance. But the Resistance hits soldiers not civilians and hospitals...

"Following the Israeli army’s release of an updated evacuation map that included Al-Shifa, several patients and wounded were moved out of the hospital’s wards. Surrounding areas were struck by Israeli missiles, triggering panic among displaced families, especially women and children.

Although the Israeli military had designated western Gaza City as a “safe zone,” it is now one of the most densely populated areas due to the influx of displaced residents.

Since Trump began his regional tour, Israeli attacks on #Gaza have escalated significantly. Dozens have been killed, including women, children, and at least one journalist. Strikes have also targeted two hospitals, six schools, and three shelters for displaced people—marking one of the deadliest escalations in recent weeks."

Since dawn today, Israel has escalated its attacks across the Gaza Strip, deliberately targeting civilian gatherings and residential areas, committing horrific massacres against them.

According to medical sources, at least 110 Palestinians have been slaughtered and hundreds of other Palestinians injured in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip within less than 24 hours.

Last week, we were sent a video of Emily Brownlee, a former high school teacher and mother of four, speaking before the Kansas State Department of Education. As a parent, teacher, and an Ambassador for ScreenStrong, Emily has deep firsthand insights into the impacts of digital technology on children’s health, well-being, and education.1

In just three minutes, she captured the educational damage that is happening in classrooms as digital technology takes over the school day.

The image shows a nighttime scene on a street with a barbed wire fence blocking the road. The fence is topped with sharp barbs and is guarded by several individuals in military-style uniforms, standing in a line. The street is lined with trees and has streetlights illuminating the area. In the background, a military vehicle is visible, parked behind the fence. The sky is dark, indicating it is late evening or night. The image is accompanied by a tweet from Larry Madowo, stating, "The way to President Ruto's house right now - State House Road." The tweet was posted at 7:28 PM on June 25, 2025, and has garnered 98.4K views.

"Ecology without class war is gardening"

Saw this on a sticker in the street in France. The original quote was "l'écologie sans lutte de classes c'est du jardinage"

ETA: quote attributed to Brazilian environmentalist and trade union leader Chico Mendes (1944–1988). In Portuguese: "Ecologia sem luta de classes é jardinagem".

Ce matin, j‘ai tondu l’herbe dans le jardin. Cette herbe que je croyais indescriptible mais dont je veux partager avec vous la description qu’en fait Victor Hugo dans l’Archipel de la Manche : « C’est l’herbe de partout… vous y trouverai des fétuques et des pâturins comme dans la première herbe venue, plus le cynodon pied-de-poule et la glycérie flottante, plus le brome mollet aux épillets en fuseau, plus le phalaris des Canaries, l’agrostide qui donne une teinture verte, l’ivraie ray-grass, le lupin jaune, la houlque, qui a de la laine sur sa tige, la flouve qui sent bon, l’amourette qui tremble, le souci pluvial, l’ail sauvage, dont la fleur est si douce et l’odeur si âcre, la fléole, le vulpin, dont l’épi semble une petite massue, le stipe, propre à faire des paniers, l’élyme utile à fixer les sables mouvants. … »
Je m’arrête là, ce n’est pas la dictée de Pivot mais je précise que la description continue, toute aussi détaillée concernant les fleurs et les insectes, aussi imagée et riche en vocabulaire. En lisant cela on s’aperçoit de l’effondrement de la connaissance qui ne concerne plus que les "zexperts". À l’époque (1883) ils n’avaient ni Google, ni Wikipédia mais ils savaient les choses. Une image vaut mille mots dit-on, mais à force d’en voir tant, on devient aveugle. Le siècle qui est le nôtre s’est enfoncé dans un gouffre d’ignorance. Il n’y a qu’à écouter les réponses d’élèves interrogés en micro-trottoir sur la manière qu’ils ont eu d’aborder les sujets de dissertation proposés pour leur dissertation de philo, pour constater le vide abyssal qui a envahi nos cervelles d’HPE « surdoués ».
À force d’images TikTok, on ne sait plus parler. L’appauvrissement du vocabulaire mène à des descriptions sommaires : ça va, ça/va pas, gentil/méchant, triste/gai, positif/négatif. Cette lecture réduite des problématiques entraîne une vision sommaire du monde d'où des grossièretés et des insultes, faute de moyen (d’expression). Résultat : on se poignarde dans la cour des écoles, on se bat en famille, on se défonce à mourir, ou l’on quitte la table des négociations parce qu’on s’y ennuie. La diplomatie ? La diplo quoi ? Toujours le même millier de mots répétés en boucle, ou larguer soudain un G9 pour rentrer chez soi en compagnie de sa bande de béotiens en bredouillant qu’on a « autre chose à faire », sous-entendu que de discuter avec des subalternes indécis et confus, des chefs de pseudo grands états, mais qu’on toise d’un regard méprisant…
Notre monde se précipite vers sa fin devant les caméras. Face à l’ignorance crasse des dictateurs, n’y a-t-il d’autre issue que d’espérer se faire promptement remplacer par une Intelligence Artificielle à qui l'on accorde tous les crédits ?
Nous vivons une ère ténébreuse qui ne s’éclaire la nuit que lorsque les missiles du dôme de fer interceptent roquettes / bombes longues portées venues de l’étranger…
Alors, j’ai replié le journal, et je suis retourné m’allonger dans l’herbe pour lire Victor l’exilé…

Parce que la biodiversité semble avoir aussi sacrément chuté aussi depuis d'Hugo a écrit ce texte...
