Tech companies are trying to redefine privacy - what's missing is real competition on privacy
And in different words: "Arguably, the dominance of the psychological and hero/antihero narrative is also the reason we are having such a difficult time dealing with the current historic technology transition."
"Our inability to understand and tell sociological stories is one of the key reasons we’re struggling with how to respond to the historic technological transition we’re currently experiencing with digital technology and machine intelligence"
Yes!

What percentage of all global fossil fuel CO₂ emissions since 1751 have occurred in my lifetime.
If you are 15 it is more than 30%
If you are 30 it is more than 50%
If you are 85, it is more than 90%

"Hänen mukaansa yhtiö on sulkenut 2,8 miljardia valetiliä."
Olen törmännyt tähän lukuun aiemminkin mutta vieläkään se ei oikein mahdu päähäni. Pystyykö yksikään firma tällaiseen tehtävään, ja pitäisikö olla sellaisessa asemassa että pitäisi pystyä?

*Game of Thrones spoiler!*
Maybe there's a lesson here about naming children.

Meanwhile we have several hundred little Khaleesis about. I imagine their parents are falling back on the claim that they named their daughters for the *idea* of free-spirited female leadership, rather than wanting to endorse the reign of any particular pyromaniac imperialist.

To an extent, Mastodon still suffers from early adopter syndrome. The most viable conversation revolve around the subjects that are of interest to the sort of people who are likely to be early adopters of new software — tech, FOSS/FLOSS, programming, etc. Other subjects have a harder time getting traction and attracting discussion. So if you have interests outside the early adopter set, one of the best things you can do for the health of the community is post about them often.

Drilling and blasting, and disruptions within disruptions: our CLA and scenario teaching paper is now published in World Futures Review! Top contributions from other Finns (also counting @NickSpacefire@twitter.com) in the same issue!
"Android-puhelimiin pystyy asentamaan vaihtoehtoisia käyttöjärjestelmiä, ”mutta se on aikamoista säätämistä eikä mitään normikäyttäjän juttua”, kuten Aarnio asian tiivistää."
Voin vahvistaa, säätämistä on. Mutta LineageOS toimii!

A Dutch 2010 study found anger to be motivating and to make objects more desirable without subjects being conscious of this. Many actors can thus benefit from provoking anger. Awareness as a solution?
