.com and .net are very dominant. Here we list other choices made:
  • .info: has a few hits:
    • archived comms:
      • beyondthefringe.info
    • unarchived comms:
      • crickettoday.info
    • unarchived:
      • talkingpointnews.info
      • theventurenews.info
      • worldconcerns.info
    Did a full Wayback Machine CDX scanning on .info after:
    grep -e news -e noticias -e nouvelles -e world -e global
    That makes about 10k domains, so it's about the right size.
  • .org: has a least one hit, see: Are there .org hits?
  • .biz:
    • unarchived comms:
      • atthemovies.biz

Anyon by Ciro Santilli 40 Updated 2025-07-16
The name actually comes from "any". Amazing.
Can only exist in 2D surfaces, not 3D, where fermions and bosons are the only options.
All known anyons are quasiparticles.

Git tips / gitk by Ciro Santilli 40 Updated 2025-07-16
For the newbs.
Slick? No. But gitk does the job, like any one of the other 100 billion free Git UI viewers out there
gitk master HEAD
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cirosantilli/media/master/gitk.png
Many IDEs are also implementing this now (e.g. VS Code, Eclipse. Most free IDE GIt implementations are still crap, but that is the future, because you want to edit, view history, edit, view history, commit, edit.
For the strong.
git log --abbrev-commit --decorate --graph --pretty=oneline master HEAD
Output:
* b4ec057 (master) 5
* 0b37c1b 4
| * fbfbfe8 (HEAD -> my-feature) 7
| * 7b0f59d 6
|/
* 661cfab 3
* 6d748a9 2
* c5f8a2c 1
If we also add the --simplify-by-decoration, which you very often want want on a real repository with many commits:
* b4ec057 (master) 5
| * fbfbfe8 (HEAD -> my-feature) 7
|/
* c5f8a2c 1
As we can see, this removes any commit that is neither:
  • under a branch or tag
  • at the intersection of too branches or tags
