Speaking of wikipedia - my favourite recent wikibinge discovery was that boycotts were named after a dude, a British land agent in 19th century Ireland named Captain Charles Boycott. Apparently he was shitty to his tenants even by British land agent standards, so the local community decided to ignore him to the point where nobody would deign to sell him food and he had to have it ordered in from further afield. He was eventually run out of the country, and then the process of economically ostracising someone until they concede to demands or leave was named after him, because ostracism is a hard word and boycott is funnier.

Google Maps is worse than useless - actively harmful

Hard to overstate how enshittified and botshitted Google Maps has become. Went looking for my local locksmith on Gmaps. Maps shows 20+ fake locksmith referral scam outlets and doesn't even register the real locksmith, despite it being fully visible in Street View.

Instead, a red pin on the shop identifies it as a fake locksmith scammer. The real locksmith - which has been there SINCE 1942 (!!) and is a verified merchant - doesn't even show up.

Google has been promising to clean up locksmith scams since the early 2010s, and has completely failed. A company that can't figure this out - but still has $80b for a stock buyback! - does not deserve the 90% market share in search it spends $26b/year to maintain.

Ooh, is data sonification making a comeback? This is a well known technique in computer music, dating back to the 1970s with IBM time-share mainframes, likely because the computers only had room for one large data set stored in memory at a time.

Listen to the sound of wikipedia

This is a way to listen to changes to wikipedia. You are literally listening to knowledge being added to the world.

Pluck sounds are an addition, strings are subtractions, and the pitch says how how big the edit is. My heart shudders at this I love it so much.
