i think we have a pretty solid base with signal.org/. the network effect won't be solved by launching a new "revolutionary" chat protocol every month. we can have plenty of new and fancy chat protocols, but if they don't reach beyond the tech bubble, they won't solve anything. nobody wants to use 1000 different chat applications.

This is for all the white people who believe in reverse racism or feel threatened by the fight for equality.

By the way, the book is a great read. Learning about all of the antifascist movements around the globe was inspiring and educational. I highly recommend it.

In my experience police have no idea how urban design can and should achieve MANY public goals. They donโ€™t even know how to design for safety.


Most Londoners have no idea how involved the cops are in urban design. The cops said that local gangs were hiding drugs in the flowers, by which they mean there were brown people hanging out there, so a park now looks like this. Vid www.instagram.com/reel/DUJRDNJ...

Itโ€™s because the goal is not safety but policing, and that has more to do with control than anything else. Groups of people gathering, the very basis of community, is by default seen as suspicious. Thatโ€™s why their preferred designs all have to do with limiting human interactions.

#AI Intensifies rather than reduces work, 8-month study finds

Generative AI tools intensified rather than reduced workload across three dimensions in an eight-month study of ~200 employees at a #US tech company.

[โ€ฆ] In our in-progress research, we discovered that AI tools didnโ€™t reduce work, they consistently intensified it. In an eight-month study of how generative AI changed work habits at a U.S.-based technology company with about 200 employees, we found that employees worked at a faster pace, took on a broader scope of tasks, and extended work into more hours of the day, often without being asked to do so. Importantly, the company did not mandate AI use (though it did offer enterprise subscriptions to commercially available AI tools). On their own initiative workers did more because AI made โ€œdoing moreโ€ feel possible, accessible, and in many cases intrinsically rewarding.

[โ€ฆ] While this may sound like a dream come true for leaders, the changes brought about by enthusiastic AI adoption can be unsustainable, causing problems down the line. Once the excitement of experimenting fades, workers can find that their workload has quietly grown and feel stretched from juggling everything thatโ€™s suddenly on their plate. That workload creep can in turn lead to cognitive fatigue, burnout, and weakened decision-making. The productivity surge enjoyed at the beginning can give way to lower quality work, turnover, and other problems.

Important context for evaluating studies that claim to find "productivity gains", but defined in terms of total output per worker or per salary dollar, rather than using the correct definition of productivity per hour worked.

The amount of people plugging Matrix as a complete and viable alternative to Discord

Look, its a regular occurrence on that platform that message decryption fails for no reason, messages go undelivered without any notification, and so many other issues between the client and server implementations. It is not a viable alternative. Most people I regularly talk to who used Matrix formerly either moved off it or mitigated how much they use it because of these issues. We need better solutions.

So I just bought an #OlympusTG7 based on its reputation as an amazing macro camera that takes photos of the tiniest things. Unfortunately, I think that is all I can use it for, since anything I take in regular mode is turning out terrible with overexposed areas.

Shooting raw and pulling down the highlights helps with the washed out areas, but the result still looks harsh, especially compared with my phone photos. Any ideas from #Photographers how to compensate for this?
