Time to win back our democracies before it's too late

ICYMI, we joined @oxfamgb.bsky.social and @mills4humanity.bsky.social in signing a letter urging leaders at Davos to tax millionaires more.

Read this week’s Closer Look to see how taxing the super rich can help win back our democracies.

Connect or Collect Data? Should WikiSim connect to data rather than collect it?

We've got the internet, but it still seems safer, easier and more reliable to copy data rather than rely on flaky URLs to connect to it. Some data design philosophy for @wikisim.org.

Thanks Stefan Magdalinski and Icebreaker One for prompting this post.

Dear ACM, you're doing AI wrong but you can still get it right Critiquing ACM's paywalled AI paper summaries and proposing better alternatives like open feeds, easier downloads, provenance tracking, and personalised agentic interfaces.

Related to the ACM journal using terrible AI summaries of academic articles anil.recoil.org/notes/acm-ai...

I agree though when we look at this through the lens of #5whys / dependent origination then the aspects of our societies, economies, legal systems that originated clickbait are still in place. Without changing those dependencies then clickbait (& worse like AI nonsense titles) will keep originating

Hi Mark, thanks for this. Is there an article or written summary about this you'd recommend? AJP

I finally have a reason to go to the gym again:

Claims:

As a request, I appreciate google forms are convenient for input but I'd like to check I wasn't submitting existing ideas that have already been suggested. For example drone delivery of parcels, personal rain water storage tanks, solar panel tiles, personal jump jet equipped emergencies services etc

@rob.pickering.org this article was fascinating www.forestcity.uk/blog/buildin...! Would be interested to hear how it's progressing, and if there are any existing crowd source platforms you're thinking of leveraging. I'd also like to offer to help start a DigitalTwin of the city if interested?

‘Brazen’ political influence of rich laid bare as wealth of billionaires reaches $18.3tn, says Oxfam Governments opting for oligarchy while brutally repressing protests over austerity and lack of jobs, charity report says

Billionaire wealth jumps to highest ever at $18.3 trillion, up 16% in 2025, up 81% since 2020

Half the world lives in poverty.

Billionaires are 4,000 times more likely to hold political office than normal people.

Richest 56 Britons hold more wealth than 27m.

Concentration of wealth is a danger.

“I’ll do a war because I didn’t get a Peace Prize” is such open abuser logic

It still surprises me you can get good performance with even tiny models on top of TESSERA embeddings. Here's how to find solar farms in the UK with a small ~42k CNN: toao.com/blog/earth-o...

Hey @leaflet.pub, alas the problem happened again. This time I didn't lose any work as I copy and pasted it to the clipboard before refreshing the page. On looking in the console there's a whole bunch of errors and some of them sound very relevant to the problem. Here's a couple of videos...

💥 That's academic publishing broken in its purest form.

For instance, in a journal you’re not allowed to say things like “we don’t know why this happens.” You’re not allowed to admit that you forgot why you ran a study. And you’re DEFINITELY not allowed to talk about Dyngus Day. You’re ...
