I am running around doing final packing for #dwebcampcascadia

It’s a small ~50 person event on Salt Spring Island that the @dwebyvr.org and friends crew put together.

Yes, it’s actually camping, although power, Internet, & running water are all available dwebyvr.org/camp/

A swirling orange, lava graphic that says: stop copaganda, surveillance tech copaganda tool kit, a new resource for storytellers to clap back at encroaching fascism. It features logos from Fight For The Future and compost magazine.

For the past year, I've been working with dozens of my most admired humans on the planet to put some new thoughts to think with out in the world.

Storytellers, may I present the uncensorable, decentralized Stop Surveillance Tech Copaganda Toolkit: stopcopaganda.compost.digital

Three pieces of writing released over the past month!

You may be on the train "Burning Man is just bunch of SF tech bros getting high on acid" BUT it started as a grassroots gathering 40!! years ago. If Ethereum community and pop-up cities want to learn about how community culture is maintained and how it evolves it's from people like Marian.

let's make "app modality" happen (as terminology)

suuuper cool and fascinating. didn't realize mp4s were so non-deterministic. Also plays into perceptual hashing which @hypha.coop has got me interested in and will likely be really important going forward in identifying AI generated/modified video content.

Really looking forward to this Bread Cooperative webinar this week: 💚🌱

Mamá, quick question: do you have any information about how the world was made?

YouTube video by AmyGrantVEVO Amy Grant - The 6th Of January (Yasgur's Farm)

Very interesting that Amy Grant released this song as her first one in 10 years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAl0... - it's a protest song that insists on subtlety. It's very very interesting coming from her since she made her name in Christian pop.

Classic.

gm. I hope the sun is shining on you.

New paper just published! We combined a water mass decomposition with biogeochemical tracers to untangle advective nutrient sources from the Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current versus local recycling along the Northwest Atlantic continental shelf. Have a look: 👇🌊🧪 #AGU

Tech oligarchs who explicitly reject democracy are building and controlling the digital infrastructure for the administrative state. The concentration of power is unprecedented.

what the hell it’s beautiful outside

Everyone assumes I’m crazy busy this month when in reality I’ll have read 15-16 books by the end of January.

Enjoying the stillness and peace that has been granted to me after leaving my biggest stressor of the last two years behind in 2024 🖤

🎉 Yesterday was the official publication date of my book Conversations on Rational Choice, CUP. So, it really exists and you can order your copy (pic by @maltedold.bsky.social because I still dont own one).

I have question from a colleague about the history of the concept of human capital. Any advice? Literature recommendations? @shoet.bsky.social @undercoverhist.bsky.social @cleocz.bsky.social @vhalsmayer.bsky.social

Ran across this great post by @thisismissem.social from months ago and was reminded how extremely disheartened I am that the tech industry has gotten a “uniform” of t-shirts and Levi’s

“t-shirt and Levi’s” were the compromise! Now I feel like I’m putting on a suit & tie after fighting for it 😂

Once we make all social media interoperable, our next mission has to be tupperware lids
