Your personal data all over the web - is there a better way? #Solid from @inrupt + @timnerners_lee is part of the solution bbc.com/news/business-…

@RichDecibels Bicycles are a great source of found sound. Turn a bike upside down, inset a microphone into the frame tubes and spin the rear wheel. You’ll get a sound with a pulse at the same tempo as the wheel spin. Get more samples from the rotating gear cogs, spokes etc. Make loops. Enjoy!

I have a strong desire to make experimental ambient music. but I live in a tiny space so I need the gear to be super portable and I don't want to use a laptop. any ideas?

@RichDecibels Beautiful picture I’m sure many of us will relate to. I do.

I had a heckin big insight this morning it's too raw to be able to write about well but I wanna hack out a rough thread while it's still fresh

@th0masschindler @jim_rutt Please share.

@jim_rutt :) i see some hints at the seven questions we once developed. (but ours are a lot better)

Pretty impressive for a reflex arc! GPT-4 prompt: What 7 questions, that if answers were found, would substantially reduce the risks to humanity from the metacrisis? Please state the output as 7 questions. GPT-4 response: 1. How can we develop sustainable solutions to combat climate change and reduce its severe impacts on ecosystems, economies, and societies? 2. What are the most effective strategies to prevent and mitigate global pandemics while strengthening public health systems for future challenges? 3. How can we ensure equitable distribution of resources and opportunities to reduce social inequalities and foster global peace and stability? 4. What are the best methods to regulate and ensure the ethical development and deployment of artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to avoid unintended consequences? 5. How can we promote education and awareness about the interconnectedness of global challenges to inspire collective action and responsibility? 6. What steps can be taken to reform economic systems and prioritize long-term well-being over short-term gains, in order to foster a more resilient and sustainable future? 7. How can we nurture a global culture of cooperation, empathy, and understanding to address the complex issues that threaten humanity's survival and well-being?

We remain a country of predominantly tolerant, welcoming and generous people. Thank you. ❤️ 4/4

Anyone here using Mastodon?

“Impact Capitalism” - first time I’ve heard that term…

My daughter and I surviving the night in Ukraine. We are real people at war with crazy dictator and we need the world’s support right now #StandWithUkraine

@aspiringtrimtab @petergyang Got big bezels?

@petergyang Even more unpopular: I'd rather use post-it notes stuck to my monitor than Notion.

Unpopular opinion: I like using Google Docs more than Notion

@zachweismann Took a look and saw that my existing expectation is that the lose contact would have to undergo conversion to a close contact to make reciprocal support over time work well. I’m open to that possibility.

@zachweismann Really like this idea. My first instinct is to reach out to my existing circle to find someone I can partner with. As soon as I took a look, I saw I already have this happening with a handful of close people. The idea is still a powerful one and I’m open to evolution/expansion.

@Tim_Denning The Evolution of Co-Operation by Robert Axelrod.

What’s the best book you read in 2021?

@nickredmark Yes, if you want your kids to learn for themselves. Kids are built to learn, too much attention can prevent them from doing what comes naturally. You got to let them make their own moves and mistakes. Let them stir the cake mix and get it everywhere!

When it comes to parenting, is there such a thing as too much attention?

@nickredmark Most of my learning has come from practices found during Landmark Education programmes, including distinctions “getting off it” (extracting ourselves from the position the ego wants us to occupy), “what’s so / what we make it mean”, “authentic”, and more. Very practical!

@nickredmark Thanks for explaining. I checked out Irene Lyon: two videos on anger suppression. We are primal! Like it! :)

Anyone else on a journey to discover their emotions?

@nickredmark Absolutely! I’m picking up on your lingo such as “traumatically embedded frames” - it understand it like I understand a second language (comprehension clicks in after a moment), but what is its source, where did you learn it?

@easycocompany Oh gosh, crazy how pervasive such traumatically embedded frames can be. On the other hand it's a miracle that one still gets to unearth them later in life (with work). So good to finally "get" it. Such a fundamental shift in perspective.

@nickredmark Thanks for sharing in a courageous and open hearted way. Great to connect on this level!

@easycocompany Now that I think about it, no, of course I never felt safe. There were things I couldn't say and emotions I couldn't express, "or else". And this year has been the year of saying the things and experiencing the "or else"...

Are you feeling safe?

@nickredmark Unsettling at first. After a while, it shifted into understanding of self and forgiveness for the six year old who had the thought that everyone is either a villain or a victim, then went on to live his whole life with that perception underlying almost everything!

@easycocompany Oh, the shadow. Thank you for reminding me of the guy. What has the encounter been like?
