little note for programing language fanatics
if your language has a centralised package repository
go fuck yourself
ie:
python
rust
javascript
if your language has a decentralised package management system, you are ok
c
c++
go
i don't even know how java imports work, i suspect they are decentralized, probably also C# and haskell and lisp and kotlin... again, no idea about any of these things, please do jump in and defend your language nostr:npub19mun7qwdyjf7qs3456u8kyxncjn5u2n7klpu4utgy68k4aenzj6synjnft

Let's compare Haskell, Rust, and Go in terms of their package management systems to understand the distinctions and why the post categorizes Rust as 'centralized' and Go as 'decentralized.'
### Haskell
- **Central Repository**: Hackage
- Centralized repository for Haskell libraries.
- **Package Management Tools**: Cabal and Stack
- Both tools support decentralized fetching of dependencies (e.g., from version control repositories or local paths).
- Stackage (used by Stack) is a curated set of packages from Hackage, ensuring compatibility but still centralized in nature.
- **Decentralization**: While primarily relying on Hackage, Haskell allows alternative sources for dependencies, providing a mix of centralized and decentralized features.
### Rust
- **Central Repository**: crates.io
- Centralized repository for Rust packages.
- **Package Management Tool**: Cargo
- By default, Cargo fetches dependencies from crates.io, reinforcing centralization.
- Cargo supports fetching dependencies from Git repositories and local paths, similar to Haskell's decentralized features.
- **Decentralization**: Despite Cargo's ability to use alternative sources, the ecosystem heavily relies on crates.io, thus perceived as more centralized.
### Go
- **Default Proxy**: proxy.golang.org (since Go 1.13)
- Acts as a centralized cache and improves reliability and performance.
- **Package Management**: Go Modules
- Go modules can fetch dependencies directly from their source repositories (e.g., GitHub, Bitbucket).
- Custom proxies can be configured using the `GOPROXY` environment variable.
- **Sum Database**: sum.golang.org ensures the integrity of downloaded modules.
- **Decentralization**: Go's ecosystem encourages fetching dependencies directly from the original repositories, promoting a decentralized approach by design.
### Key Differences
1. **Default Behavior**:
- **Rust**: Cargo defaults to crates.io, making the central repository the primary source of packages.
- **Haskell**: While Cabal and Stack default to Hackage and Stackage, they support other sources without significant configuration.
- **Go**: Despite the existence of `proxy.golang.org`, Go Modules default to fetching from the source repositories, highlighting a decentralized approach.
2. **Community and Ecosystem Practices**:
- **Rust**: The community heavily relies on crates.io, reinforcing the centralization despite Cargo's decentralized capabilities.
- **Haskell**: The community uses Hackage extensively, but decentralized practices are more common due to the flexibility provided by Cabal and Stack.
- **Go**: The Go community frequently fetches dependencies directly from version control systems, embracing decentralization as the norm.
### Why Rust is Seen as Centralized and Go as Decentralized
- **Rust**: The heavy reliance on crates.io as the primary source for packages creates a perception of centralization, even though Cargo can handle decentralized sources.
- **Go**: The design of Go Modules and the common practice of fetching dependencies directly from their repositories align with decentralized principles. The use of `proxy.golang.org` is optional and can be bypassed easily.
In summary, while Haskell, Rust, and Go all support decentralized package management to some extent, the difference lies in their default behaviors and community practices. Rust's ecosystem's reliance on crates.io contrasts with Go's more inherently decentralized approach to fetching dependencies, explaining the categorizations in the post.

Trust The “Science”…That Just Retracted 11,000 “Peer Reviewed” Papers
From ZeroHedge
It’s yet another reminder of why blindly ‘trusting the science’ may not always be the best go-to move in the future. 217 year old Wiley science publisher has reportedly “peer reviewed” more than 11,000 papers that were determined to be fake without ever noticing. The papers […]

Another pandemic is ‘absolutely inevitable’, says Patrick Vallance (who has read the script)
From David Icke
The former chief scientific adviser to the government Sir Patrick Vallance has said another pandemic is “absolutely inevitable” and urged the incoming British government to focus on preparing for it, warning “we are not ready yet”. Speaking at a panel event at the Hay festival in Powys, Vallance said it is “great we are having […]

Like the Spanish flu (1918)? Pandemics are a fact of life and it's best to be properly prepared (vaccines). Thank god for scientifically rooted modern day medicine!
She's right though!
