El transporte público es una necesidad pública, como la sanidad, la educación, los bomberos y la policía. Si se necesita, se invierte. No se mide por su rentabilidad contable, sino por su rentabilidad social. Conectar barrios, dar movilidad a quien la necesite, reducir desigualdades.

⭐ Success story throwback:

Last June, the political party Alhora confidently chose Vocdoni for its National Congress votes.

Each month, more parties adopt blockchain voting for its enhanced guarantees. Reducing the attack surface allows for more fair political processes!

DAVINCI: the voting protocol that meets the criteria for universal adoption Back in 2018, we started Vocdoni after identifying some flaws in the way people vote. Traditional paper ballots can be slow to count, hard to audit, and vulnerable to tampering. Onchain voting solves some of those issues but adds new ones, such as high fees, poor privacy, vote buying, “follow-the-crowd” pressure, and limits on how many voters it can handle. Inspired by how Bitcoin and Ethereum opened finance to anyone with an internet connection, we wondered: why not do the same for democracy...

🎉 We’ve raised $1M to build a voting protocol unlike any before:
Censorship-resistant, gasless, anonymous, anti-coercion, scalable and secured by cryptography & Ethereum.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

Oh look, exactly what everyone said would happen is happening

lol Just received now?

Chart showing instances of wild animals using a hamster wheel left out in the wild, with visits dominated by wild mice, followed by slugs, rats, shrews and a few frogs and snails.

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts.

The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails.

The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.

The race for "AI Supremacy" is over — at least for now. Decades of government kowtowing to Big Tech has thus far failed to produce a decisive victory

Although "primitive communism" has never existed as more than a Marxist concept with no fieldwork, that could account for it, its pervasiveness has proven hard to contest. It's very important to note that Engels in his often quoted work "The origin of the family, private property and the state",⏬

Noves troballes situen la presència dels “primers humans” a Europa fa 2 milions d’anys (200.000 anys abans les restes òssies de Dmanisi, Geòrgia).

Se sap poc sobre la sortida dels hominins d’Àfrica (i quina espècie), però ja es van trencant narratives poc científiques i batalles d’egos d’anys. 🏺💀

He sentit que s’està desenvolupant un clon d’Instagram per la xarxa Bluesky.

Només espero que incorporin aviat els perfils privats pq si no serà un gran pas enrere.
