What is this?

You're just getting clicks then the entire post is Liam's work from @gamingonlinux

Seems pretty underhanded, Gamesense. Your bio says 'experts' but all I'm seeing on your link is zero work of your own?

Aaron Straup Cope | Keynote Speech FACT Symposium


I was delighted to watch this Keynote address from my former colleague and long time pal, Aaron Straup Cope. In it he makes a number of nice references to the projects we worked on together and the things I worked on after he and Seb Chan left the team at Cooper Hewitt.

Itโ€™s been 15 years since and Iโ€™m amazed at how the work is still talked about across the sector. Iโ€™m really proud of that work and reflecting these days, Iโ€™m glad we did the things we did and in the way we did them, even when they wound up looking like โ€œexpensive mistakes.โ€

This talk is worth your time if you care about cultural heritage, museums, and the internet. Itโ€™s especially relevant today as we are continually asked to bear witness to the possible undoing of hundreds of years of American democracy!

it's not magic โ€“ finding our way back to 'just f*cking do it' from 'move fast and break things'

As a general rule plywood and two-by-fours are the structural underpinnings of nearly everything in the built environment no matter how posh, luxurious or expensive the surface trappings.

I was in high school when they first said that computers could teach kids - at least, for arithmetic drill. In the 50 years since, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were really sure that computers would transform education.

Nope.

Notice that the lords of AI are NOT claiming they can replace that job? No fewer elementary school teachers?

It's because that's one area of human work where the KNOW they will fail. Again.

We see Mr. Spok from "Star Trek" at his screen, he is sitting on his turnable office chair. Holding on to his buttons still, he is turning around, presumably to speak to the captain. The caption quotes him "We are receiving posts from decentralised social media... apparently, some part of the civilization survived." On the screen is a very small QR-code.

what a cover
the front cover of the 1984 book "Artificial Intelligence in BASIC" by Mike James. It depicts a three dimensional egg whose surface appears to be made of curved circuit board, with visible copper traces and green solder-mask. From approximately the egg's center of mass emanates a bright starburst-like flash

Small businesses are considered the backbone of the U.S. economy.

They account for 99.9% of all U.S. businesses and employ nearly half of the American workforce.

Small businesses generate 44% of U.S. economic activity and have created two-thirds of all new jobs in recent decades.

In 2025, #PLOSBiology continues to advocate for policy based on scientific evidence.

I feel strongly about the need for evidence-based policy and a dogged defence of science. I said it in 2020, and will reiterate it til the end of time.

The world may change - our principles should not.

This 2020 Editorial, โ€œWe need leaders that believe in scientific evidenceโ€, resonates today as loudly as ever: plos.io/34lyl59.

PLOS Biology also continues to push for DEI and a diverse scientific community:
plos.io/3rzxczU

We need leaders that believe in scientific evidence

In a world beset by attempts to undermine scientific evidence and evidence-based policy, we emphasize their important role in helping humanity rise to the challenges of our time.

Current events have shown how important it is to massively shift away from billionaire social media platforms. For our mental health, for democracy itself!

There is much to do to convince people that decentralised social media is not only good enough; its lack of feed algorithms makes it *better*. After all, feed algorithms serve platform owners, not platform users.

Help us campaign for this historic shift. We offer 3-9 week fellowships to
resident activists (Leipzig, Germany).

(link in bio)

We see a title in pink letters saying "CALL FOR ACTIVISTS". Below it says "to work on a Decentralized Social Media Campaign" in blue letter. Below are two squares right next to each other forming a horizontal rectangular, the left square is black and bears the X.com logo, saying "X" underneath, the right square bears the mastodon logo and is blue, and it says "mastodon" underneath. Between the squares is an arrow pointing from left to right. Underneath, it says "Live-in Stipends pay for room and board" in blue letters.
