jslakro··on Spreadsheet Assassins – A short history of "software as a service"
The author shows notorious negative cases to invalidate a whole industry. Talks about the beauty of Excel more with a nostalgic look. If a company can replace a SaaS subscription with a process in which some employees share an Excel file, they don't need other software at all. Any software product (SaaS included) what tries to sell is a methodology or a way to do the things, condensing the know-how of an industry; whereas an Excel file most of the time means a clumsy attempt by someone to bring some order to the process. The data dependency is something governments should regulate, forcing easy portability. Of course, after years of using a specific tool it is natural to create a dependency, but it could be considered a tax from modern life as the author himself explains, it's something you cannot escape from. Or at least, the change will not involve just cancelling all your company SaaS subscriptions

jslakro··on Show HN: Hmpl – work with server-side HTML with ease
I find a "pure" html approach interesting. What's the problem with these little projects? They are closer to the hacker spirit that many posts that reach the first page from companies injected with vc money that also are doing their own marketing

jslakro··on Show HN: Not sure you're talking to a human? Create a human check
We'd need to build a network of anonymous human checks. You verify that someone you know in person exists, but protected by an anonymous layer. The way you know some internet actor is human is connecting trust networks until the unknown person.
