# Cool links of march
This month had it's share of problems : my two computers broke down a few days apart, and because I forgot to backup my writings, I've lost most of the links I saved for the past days. Thankfully, I have a lot more in reserve, so this month will be light, and more links will be published next month. There is, as always, a fair shaire of links about tech. I've shared a few links that helped me fix my problems, and some political articles I read and find interesting, but it doesn't mean I agree a 100% with what's written there. Have a good read !

## [The Pacman Rosetta](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman_Rosetta)
As I said in introduction, my computers broke down. On my laptop, I had been using Ubuntu for the past 4 years, with virtually no problems, until my SSD failed.. I installed a new SSD, and decided it was time to move to something new, and installed Manjaro Linux. One of the things I was worried about was learning the Pacman package manager. I had read about people breaking theire system with updates. Thankfully, the archlinux wiki is a gold mine, and has a page where all the usual apt commands and translated to pacman commands ! Nice !
## [Entrering the static web](https://staticadventures.netlib.re/blog/entering-the-static-web/)
Why does Wordpress have a security flaw every other month ? Why do we use so much energy to power the internet ? Is there another way ?
Well, yes ! And this website is part of it : it's a static website. Changes only happen when a new post is published. Otherwise, it's just a bunch of HTML files hosted by a very small computer.
The linked article explores briefly the history of publishing on the internet and gives a overlook of how things are changing to old, proved and efficient tech.

## [Building the Digitally Gated Community: The Case of Nextdoor](https://ojs.library.queensu.ca/index.php/surveillance-and-society/article/view/12927)
"The neighborhood is a historic and contemporary site of the assertion of white racial and economic domination, particularly over Black people. Although there is strong evidence that whites continue to prefer racially segregated neighborhoods, fifty years of fair housing jurisprudence has made it more difficult to openly bar non-white residents. Among the many strategies used to protect white domination of residential space is the coordinated surveillance and policing of non-white people. In this paper, I show how Nextdoor, a neighborhood-based social network, has become an important platform for the surveillance and policing of race in residential space, enabling the creation of what I call digitally gated communities."
## [Inmates in Finland are training AI as part of prison labor](https://www.theverge.com/2019/3/28/18285572/prison-labor-finland-artificial-intelligence-data-tagging-vainu)
AI doesn't mean anything without the work of people who train it. And most of the time, that work is boring, badly paid and done by people who live in very though conditions. Talk about a revolution...

On se doute que les états font rarement des excuses quand il s'agit de tuer des citoyens révoltés, mais le fait que ça soit inscrit dans la loi, qui leur donne un semblant de légitimité, est troublant.
