As [[A History of the Internet and its future|in the early days of the World Wide Web]], we should return to the concept of a browser as a software that not only browses the web, but it makes it easy for anyone to create a basic website.

## Notes
- When combining stuff, the string always wins
- you can grab the content of a DOM Element by selecting it and using `innerText`
- `textContent` is better than `innerText`
### Reading and writing JSON
To read a JSON file in JavaScript, you can use the `fetch()` method to get the contents of the file as a `Response` object. Then, you can convert the `Response` object to JSON using the `json()` method.
Here is an example:
```
fetch('example.json')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data))
.catch(error => console.error(error))
```
To write a JSON file in JavaScript, you can create an object that you want to write to a file, convert it to a JSON string using the `JSON.stringify()` method, and then write the string to a file using the `fs` module.

description: Insights about what to do after my bachelor graduation
---
I am unsure about my life plans after graduation, but I am quite certain that academic life is not for me. Still, I feel and I know that there is a lot to study and to advocate concerning the topics I tackle in [[Thesis|my thesis]]. Therefore, even though too late and guided by curiosity rather than actual interest, I am exploring potential masters. The ones I believe would suit me best are **one year masters**, since they would be the perfect balance between [[Metastudy#Conflict|my two conflicting souls]]: properly concluding my academic education, and getting out of university as soon as possible.
My personal intention is to go as far as possible, start working and discover the world (it is cliché, but it is what I need)
My academic intention is to pursue my research concerning the deep intertwining of Computer Sciences (specifically, the Web) and Social Sciences.
## Masters
A near-perfect master to which I would not care to dedicate two years is the [International Master of Science in **Computational Social Systems**](https://computationalsocialsystems.rwth-aachen.de) at [RWTH Aachen University](https://rwth-aachen.de 'Rheinisch-Westfaelische Technische Hochschule'), as my friend [Ruggero](https://linkedin.com/in/ruggsea 'Ruggero Lazzaroni on Linkedin'), who studied it and who is a former [PISE](https://unive.it/pise 'Philosophy, International Studies and Economics - Ca’ Foscari University') student like me, suggested me. Unfortunately, <u>the course has been discontinued</u>, Ruggero tells me it is because there are not enough professors to teach it. Knowing this encourages me even more to pursue this path, because such lack of professionals proves how this topic is not studied/researched enough.
[I posted about this on the Fediverse](https://pan.rent/@tommi/109943080493865161 'My request for help on Pan'), and I got some interesting, but not revelatory, intel.
By wandering around Linkedin, I stumbled upon (or, I should rather write <q>the algorithm fed me with</q>) [Digital Culture Studies](https://tilburguniversity.edu/education/masters-programmes/digital-culture-studies 'Digital Culture Studies - Tilburg University') at Tilburg University. It immediately got my attention, but by further reading about it, I feel it is full of stuff I already know and the intertwining with Computer Science is minimal.
