Plans for the weekend: I'm going to scan the local anarchist bookshop's entire collection with a barcode reader, so they finally get an inventory. I'll probably use my little program which also checks whether a book is needed by the #InternetArchive. (Still works without changes 5 years later!)

Some 70 of those books are in the @internetarchive wishlist. They've been set aside and I'll see what to do about them.

Also, I've found my new arch-enemy: book cover designs where the ISBN barcode is printed in green or white (or anything other than black on white really).


I had to drive my eldest daughter to Rheinfelden at half past 7, then pick her up again at half past ten. I decided to use the time for a ride in unknown territory.
So I used two well-known apps to make me a route, and started riding at 8, an hour before sunset. #MTB #Fatbike #EveningRide

I had originally planned to take the eeb, but decided to take this beauty, instead. Good decision!

I realized something recently, which is that we're building AI tools completely backwards.

While I was aware that there's some de-skilling happening already, I finally clicked a bunch of pieces together and decided to write this to talk about how we can do *better*

In short: Most AI tools suffer dramatically because

- We use them to short-circuit the human cognitive reasoning (and learning) process
- We use them to silo people rather than bring them together
- We then feed broken data back into the AI and exacerbate the cycle

We're building anti-human tools

However, there's a evidence-backed way to help prevent this, by leveraging how humans *work* to influence how we design AI.

To no surprise if you've been reading my stuff lately, it involves *gasp* embracing collective learning and augmenting human collaboration patterns rather than breaking them.

Originally, I was going to bang this out as a thread, but then I kept going and realized I had a lot to say about the topic. This scratches the surface, but as always... I have thoughts. Lots of thoughts. They never stop thinking. Never stop thunking.

(Also... ~4k words and no swearing, somehow?!?)

«Je pars à l’université de Toronto car je veux faire mon travail sans avoir peur d’être puni pour mes mots», (Jason Stanley). L’historienne Marci Shore, elle, établit un parallèle avec les années 1930 : «La leçon de 1933 est qu’il vaut mieux partir plus tôt que trop tard.»

«Nous sommes comme des passagers du Titanic qui disent que leur navire ne peut pas couler […] Et ce que vous savez en tant qu’historienne, c’est qu’il n’existe pas de navire insubmersible.»

Curious about the Green's Zack Polanski (who is currently deputy leader of the Green Party, but pitching to lead the party)?

Here's an interview with him from @openDemocracy where he makes his views on the Left pretty clear:

'I would really like to see the Labour MPs who align with our values to join the Green Party & to be honest I don't understand why they're still in the Labour Party'

Think her main interest was treating animals better, rewilding etc which is fair enough and critical in fact, but I did find it weird that she was so against doing anything about climate change, had to go and walk with another part of the group because I found it so weird 🙄

Italy is ramping up support for Ukraine, pulling 400 M113 armored vehicles out of storage and including them in its 11th military aid package. The M113s have been phased out and replaced by Dardo IFVs.

in reply to NOELREPORTS 🇪🇺 🇺🇦

it's ironic that actual wars are only ever fought with obsolete equipment, because we're keeping the up to date equipment in reserve for the wars we will hopefully never fight.

All wars are evil, and we should do everything possible to avoid having to fight them; but the longer a war drags on the more evil it gets. If Europe had poured all its available forces into #Crimea in 2014, the #UkraineInvasion would be a footnote in history with not a shot fired.

Bullies back down.




Nine people killed, four more injured:

Russia attacked a civilian bus in Sumy region with a Lancet drone.

According to local authorities, passengers were evacuating from Bilopillia as it is constantly attacked by Russia.

Russian terror on Ukrainian civilians continues.
