I love that this article expands DEI into diversity, equity, and inclusion. It’s important to remember that diversity, equity, and inclusion are not primarily political devices, but a set of moral ideas meant to improve human wellbeing and harmony. DEI is used as a political device by people who are not driven by a desire for human wellbeing.

That’s the fast lane to having every company that values their IP exiting Brazil. Apple would roll their certificates and quit signing whatever Brazil was building with and Brazil’s economy would be way worse off for nothing.

What if instead of her song she chose to perform Can’t Touch This.

This era was before smartphones and always-online lifestyle. Being always online is a prerequisite to the attention economy.

So, yes, you’re right that the best internet was back then. Back when we could leave it at home and go out into the world knowing everybody else had also left it at home.

Laptops are an obvious exception back then, but almost nobody took their laptop to the bar with them, or to a concert, or on a hike, or to the grocery store. And the trouble of pulling it out and trying to find WiFi meant that it wasn’t easy enough to distract the majority.

This does not sound good for those people. Writing is a way of thinking. AI writing assistants are competitive cognitive artifacts. People who use AI to write most of their written communication will get worse at thinking through writing.

I’ve really wanted to do this, in large part because of tech neck. I’d love to have a HMD that has focusable optics so I don’t subconsciously strain my neck to look at my screen.

Anybody have recommendations? I’d love a dumb HMD with hdmi or usb-c video input.

What do you mainly use that supports tables?

I migrated from mediawiki to markdown in git 8 years ago and never looked back. The ability to publish to any number of static site hosts, and use any number of editors, some that have preview mode, is rad. Data liberty, data portability, wide support, easy to convert, easy to grep, good enough for 95% of written notes.

My biggest gripe is poor support for tables of data.
