Is a timber frame house from back then the same as one built post 1950 though? Some Q's:

  • Have materials/practices decreased in quality?
  • Has there been a shift from a sense of pride in craft and duty to build well towards cutting corners and saving $?
  • Has the density and properties of wood changed as we use smaller trees grown more quickly in monocultures compared to old-growth harvested lumber of pre 1900s?

Fitting, because you know what Queens do? They slay.

Billionaires and Republican politicians?

Bernie would have taxed and regulated the media and it's owners. The coverage disparity is intentional.

I hear Corelle Brands is looking for some high quality M&A these days.

Seems too good to be true. Like you're about to be ripped to shreds and have your whole world turned to shit.

Ugh, the AI generated video is so off-putting. Extra fingers sprouting, teeth or beaks appearing in smiley faces. Lovecraftian horrors abound...

Don't look away. RIP Phillip.

 

It's almost like raising prices without improving the service causes people to cancel 🤔

 

Is the image proxy broken?

I get a small box saying "Print pretty" from the comment link in Connect, gif wont load in the comment itself.

When I open the link externally in Firefox I get:

Is anyone else experiencing this? Or am I doing something wrong? Thank you!

Lots of reasons to be looking at the framework Canada just published for consumer-driven (open) banking, but I thought this was a gem:

from "2.10 A Single Technical Standard"

...The Framework will significantly decrease the risks of personal data being compromised by bad actors and mitigate security, privacy, and liability risks for consumers and participants. This is achieved through the use of APIs, a type of software that acts as secure data “pipes” to enable different products and services to communicate in a consistent manner.

If an API is a pipe, is the Internet a series of tubes?

Technological development can destroy our sense of ourselves as rational, coherent subjects, leading to widespread suffering and destruction. But tools can also provide us with a new sense of what it means to be human, leading to new modes of expression and cultural practices.

Technology, for better or worse, affects every aspect of our lives. Our very sense of who we are is shaped and reshaped by the tools we have at our disposal.

The problem, for Stiegler, is that when we pay too much attention to our tools, rather than how they are developed and deployed, we fail to understand our reality. We become trapped, merely describing the technological world on its own terms and making it even harder to untangle the effects of digital technologies and our everyday experiences.

By encouraging us to pay closer attention to this world-making capacity, with its potential to harm and heal, Stiegler is showing us what else is possible.
