What is #Web3, exactly?
The Onion explains.
Q: How can I get Web3?
A: Sign up now to receive a 100-hour free trial on CD-ROM.
Q: I’m concerned about internet privacy. Will Web3 prioritize—
A: No. Nope. We’ll stop you right there. No.
I speak a few languages myself and can recognise several non-latin scripts. I had a pretty good hunch of the outcome but no idea how deep it goes!
In the context of the website redesign I'm working on, we asked Richard Ishida, our #i18n expert, how to sort languages when multiple translations are available.
His answer is both mind-boggling and fascinating!

Yesterday, while I was on a call, my daughter was around for a few minutes. Then before leaving she told me "Mom, are there only men?"
I don't pay attention anymore but yes, it has not changed much in 20 years. There was actually another woman on that call, among ~40 participants.
