the Julius Caesar of our time—Donald Trump

Biiiiig doubt right off the bat, but I'll keep reading.

We can’t stop people free-riding, it’s part of our nature, the incurable syndrome… Free riders are among us ... if we accept that we all have this ancient flaw... we can design policies around that and change our societies for the better.

Right, ok, I guess that makes sense. How do we fix it then?

Self-knowledge: ...appearing trustworthy but being selfish can be more beneficial to the individual. We need to recognise that and make a moral choice about whether we try to use people or to work with them.

Ok, sure, for the less-selfish folks who have the capacity for self-awareness. But the more selfish folks already know this because they are exploiting it.

Education: We must teach people to think ethically for themselves, and to give them the tools to do so.

Hmm, big doubt. We've been trying to do this for ages in many societies. Not only has it not been a panacea, the selfish often hijack the education systems themselves.

Policy: Goodman believes that exposing free-riders is more beneficial than punishment.... suggesting that journalistic work exposing exploitation can be as effective... as criminal punishment.

Ok, you lost me. Maybe the book is better, but this is garbage. I don't care about changing behaviour, I want to stop the bleeding. Criminal punishment for the criminally sociopathic! This guy and Susan Collins can keep eachother company...

So if they plan to make B.C. "tax-free," will they work for free too? 'Cause guess where the money to pay MLAs comes from...

They might still get you on skin colour, ethno-linguistic origin of name, left-wing political affiliations, religious affiliations (or lack thereof), type of employment or specific employer, perceived accent, or a boarder agent just having a very bad or a very good day.

Depends on if you're measuring in Ford Fields or Beaver Stadiums.

But would he put himself in additional danger for the lols? Or because drugs? Or raging narcisism? Let's be real, E-Mu is confused. Could totally hurt himself in his confusion.

 

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

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.
