Adding JavaScript to Minecraft



Minecraft is getting a JavaScript runtime. It means two things: 1) game logic will be exposed through a new API that you can use to create your own mods, and 2) the way Minecraft’s UI is built and shipped on everything from Android and iOS to Switch and Xbox will be completely overhauled. Tobias goes through the technical details of their integration, why they’re doing it, and what they think it means for Minecraft players.

Mastodon & The Fediverse Explained



Mastodon is a "federated" social network that works like Twitter. It puts the control of data into the user's hands, not in a single corporation. Mastodon uses ActivityPub to make sure that each Mastodon instance can reach the others. ActivityPub is also implemented by other applications such as PeerTube and Plume. This is what makes up the *Fediverse*: a collection of social networks that function as a single one. 🎵Music used in this video
