Tim Berners-Lee tells us his radical new plan to upend the World Wide Web

This week, Berners-Lee will launch, Inrupt, a startup that he has been building, in stealth mode, for the past nine months. Backed by Glasswing Ventures, its mission is to turbocharge a broader movement afoot, among developers around the world, to decentralize the web and take back power from the forces that have profited from centralizing it. In other words, it’s game on for Facebook, Google, Amazon. For years now, Berners-Lee and other internet activists have been dreaming of a digital utopia where individuals control their own data and the internet remains free and open. But for Berners-Lee, the time for dreaming is over.

“We have to do it now,” he says, displaying an intensity and urgency that is uncharacteristic for this soft-spoken academic. “It’s a historical moment.” Ever since revelations emerged that Facebook had allowed people’s data to be misused by political operatives, Berners-Lee has felt an imperative to get this digital idyll into the real world. In a post published this weekend, Berners-Lee explains that he is taking a sabbatical from MIT to work full time on Inrupt. The company will be the first major commercial venture built off of Solid, a decentralized web platform he and others at MIT have spent years building.

>where, really, is the bottleneck for making a system run at any temp for however long youd like?
ill mention now that id like to assume the computer is running at its hottest temps from start to finish (where it breaks), as things can break starting at 100c or so if you run them for long enough, so assume the system has all safety catches turned off and is at the temp where it dies instantly, which would be... ? - with the first piece of hardware to fail being... ?
you can also use whatever is affordable for a regular person without having to worry about mass-production/ease of

my first guess would be the circuitry or wiring melting. thoughts?

Is there an app for iOS or Android that uses machine learning to improve auto brightness by learning a users ideal brightness at different sensor readings? Kind of like Nest but for phone screen brightness.

I'm moving to Seattle next month and I want to use Tinder as if I'm already there. I tried using a fake GPS app, but Tinder just stopped working.
Is there any way to basically trick whatever Tinder uses to know my location? Would the website work for this, and if so how would I change my location on a browser?
