Stockholm, Sweden. Perl, XPATH, DBI, logstash, loki, gibberish. I'm no fun. I enjoy long walks while listening to TGL's podcasts (Danny Wallace on RadioX). I'm a Senior listener!

"Just doing things" is not a path to value Action for the sake of action feels good, but the path of least resistance leads you to surrender your own agency.

There is a cult of action at the heart of tech.

This cult says: don't mind that the systems are broken. Don't try and fix them. You can just do things, using you ubermensch will.

AI has plugged into this cult to promise 10x-ing your action. But instead your will becomes subservient to the machine.

the disastrous refusal of the self-styled silicon valley technokings to keep anyone in their lives capable of questioning their increasingly incomprehensible politics has lead to a crisis of thinking so severe that a fifty-eight year old man believes something is important because he knows about it

A young Crowley, with a silly bow tie on, looking at camera with self-conscious intensity

It’s the 150th anniversary of the birth of Aleister Crowley, the man who – among *many* other things – once put an acrostic in an “apparently innocuous book of devotional verse” which spelt out ‘The Virgin Mary I desire but arseholes set my prick on fire’ www.weiserantiquarian.com/pages/books/...

Efter dokumentären om pedofilskandalen på Internationella engelska skolan i Karlstad fortsätter Moderaterna att kampanja med IES för en tuffare skola. Och många i koncernens ledning är just före detta moderater.

Deras mopeder ska rädda svenska klimatmål

Nästa horribla projekt som den svenska regeringen satsat skattebetalarnas pengar på - man tror inte att det man läser är sant, på riktigt. Avgå, bara gör det. Försvinn.

This morning in 1957, a B-47 departing Homestead AFB (about 25 miles south of Miami, Florida) for Wheelus Air Base, Libya, as part of a large alert exercise crashed and burned in a field roughly 3,800 feet from the end of the runway after the pilot chose to take off with a flat right outrigger tire.

EMF - "Bela Lugosi's Dead"
YouTube video by EMFtheband EMF - "Bela Lugosi's Dead"

i awoke to find this bemusing gem - EMF covering 'Bela Lugosi' - musically, remarkably faithful to the original, at least until the vocals start.

how odd.

Jag läser bara högt ur offentligt tillgängliga handlingar och säger kontrollerbara fakta men många blir alltid väldigt arga. Kalla mig naiv, men jag är övertygad om att hänger bara vi som vill förändra skolsystemet i så kommer politikerna till slut att tvingas agera mot skolägarna.

LINDA JERNECK: Släpp SD-skräcken eller dö i mitten Fortsätta jaga spöken från det förflutna – eller fokusera på verkliga hot mot friheten? Den röda linjen mot SD riskerar att bli en snara runt Liberalernas hals.

Call it hybrid warfare, gray-zone tactics, or whatever euphemism helps you sleep at night. But semantics won’t save you.
