s21e02: What Does it Mean to be Friends?

It was a governmental policy decision that prevented portability and choice, in the ideological name of market competition -- if a regulation about portability had existed, about reducing the ways in which companies could innovate to develop their moats, then that would have reduced our choice of social networks.

Zooko's triangle is a trilemma of three properties that some people consider desirable for names of participants in a network protocol:[1] Human-meaningful: Meaningful and memorable (low-entropy) names are provided to the users. Secure: The amount of damage a malicious entity can inflict on the system should be as low as possible. Decentralized: Names correctly resolve to their respective entities without the use of a central authority or service.

No, Google Did Not Unilaterally Decide to Kill XSLT – Eric’s Archived Thoughts

Even if this proposal goes through, XSLT could still be used server-side.  You could use libraries that support XSLT versions more recent than 1.0, even!  Thus, XML could still be turned into HTML, just not in the client via native support, though JS or WASM polyfills, or even add-on extensions, would still be an option.  Is that good or bad?  Like everything else in our field, the answer is “it depends”.

In a complex world facing many challenges, multipolar traps emerge when self-interests conflict with collective well-being, leading to detrimental outcomes. To break free, we need to prioritize collaboration, long-term thinking, and shared goals, working across sectors and nations.

Ben Holliday » From product to a service mindset

s a set of values or principles, a product mindset is often described as putting user-centricity at the forefront of work, with decisions and agile development being driven by an understanding of users’ needs, behaviours, and pain points. However, in reality, it’s still all too common for teams to use user-centred approaches, but without truly thinking and acting in ways that question the effect decisions have beyond their immediate delivery focus

Füllsack M. & Riegler A. (2017) Thinking in Eigenbehaviors as a Transdisciplinary Approach. Constructivist Foundations 12(3): 239–245

Context: By proposing to regard objects as “tokens for eigenbehavior,” von Foerster’s seminal paper opposes the intuitive subject-object dualism of traditional philosophy, which considers objects to be instances of an external world Problem: We argue that this proposal has two implications, one for epistemology and one for the demarcation between the natural sciences and the humanities. Method: Our arguments are based on insights gained in computational models and from reviewing the contribution...
