Yesterday, in the early evening, I was fortunate to spend an hour and a half with President (Ibu) Megawati Sukarnoputri, the daughter of Bung Karno. I gave her a copy of the Indonesian edition of Darker Nations (Bangsa-Bangsa Kulit Berwarna) and she wrote a wonderful inscription in a copy of Sukarno's writings and speeches for me. During our time together, she told me about the story of her birth (the role of Biju Patnaik in her naming) and the stories of her encounters with Bac Ho, Uncle Nehru, and Aunty Indira; she told me of her father's favourite ways to relax, and about her own struggles during the New Order regime that sought to erase the socialist heritage of her father and the national struggle. Wonderful tales about her trip to Iran to meet Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and about her relationship with leaders across Asia during her time as president. When I told her that we are doing a volume of her father's writings and speeches for an international edition, she was overjoyed. It makes me want to bring that out faster than fast.

話題のパランティア本、『テクノロジカル・リパブリック』（日本経済出版）をサインがてら寄った紀伊國屋で買って早速読んだ。興味深いのは、現在のシリコンバレーが本当の難題に立ち向かうのをやめ、楽に稼げる消費者向けアプリの開発に勤しんでいることへの批判である。デヴィッド・グレーバーを引きながら、現在の技術は結局これまであったもののデジタル模倣にすぎず、真のブレークスルーではないと喝破する。 結局、リベラリズムは、社会が進むべき方向を示すことなく、技術を野放しにした。その結果、テクノ支配階級は富を蓄積する一方で、私たちが手に入れたのは無料のウェブメールだけなのだ。それに対して、過去を振り返れば、インターネットや月面着陸のようなイノベーションが起きたのは、本来国家との官民協働のプロジェクトであった。 実は、そのような協働を復活させようという提案は、『人新世の「黙示録」』とも共通する。では、違いはなにか。パランティアは、倫理やポリコレをとっぱらったエリートこそが技術の可能性を復活させると言う。だが、これはテクノファシズムへの道だ。私はこの官民連関にこれまで排除されてきた民衆が参加する民主的計画こそが、真のブレークスルーを生むと信じている。必要なのは民主主義の否定ではない。むしろ、より多くの民主主義なのだ。

So happy to have met @vijayprashad & @t_ings at the Global South Solidarity lecture! They were kind and warm in person. Thrilled, that I brought my students & moved our class to the event. Hopefully they received it wholeheartedly. Planted revolutionary seed for a better future

@kumparan Ada wacana itu saja sudah bermasalah. Ini alasannya yang tolol atau kita rakyat yang udah dianggapnya lugu kali yah?

Kementerian Pertahanan (Kemhan) buka suara soal isu pesawat Amerika Serikat (AS) bisa melintas di wilayah udara Indonesia tanpa izin. Karo Infohan Setjen Kemhan, Brigjen TNI Rico Sirait, menyebut dokumen yang beredar terkait hal itu belum bersifat final dan tidak mengikat secara hukum. Rico menyebut rancangan tersebut masih dibahas secara internal maupun antar-instansi. Prosesnya disebut belum sampai pada tahap pengambilan keputusan resmi pemerintah. Dokumen itu juga ditegaskan bukan persetujuan final terkait akses lintas udara militer Amerika Serikat. Rico menekankan setiap pembahasan kerja sama pertahanan dengan negara lain selalu mengedepankan kepentingan nasional serta menjaga kedaulatan Indonesia. Seluruh proses juga berpedoman pada ketentuan hukum nasional dan internasional yang berlaku. Selain itu, setiap wacana maupun rancangan kerja sama disebut harus melalui proses pembahasan berlapis sebelum dipertimbangkan lebih lanjut. Proses tersebut melibatkan seluruh pemangku kepentingan sesuai mekanisme yang berlaku. Rico juga menegaskan otoritas wilayah udara nasional sepenuhnya berada pada negara Indonesia. Setiap kemungkinan pengaturan tetap berada di bawah kendali pemerintah Indonesia. Dalam konteks tersebut, Rico memastikan Indonesia tetap memiliki kewenangan penuh untuk menyetujui atau menolak setiap aktivitas di ruang udara nasional. 📸: Dok. kumparan/Ilustrasi.

@BurhanMuhtadi Ini yang saya sebut sebagai gambaran antikristus (antichrist) open.substack.com/pub/davetielun…

Speechless!

@detikcom apa yang dilakukan oleh Trump dan Netanyahu sebenarnya adalah kegenapan dari si antikristus open.substack.com/pub/davetielun…

Ucapan Netanyahu menuai kritik setelah membandingkan Yesus Kristus dengan Genghis Khan dalam pidato tentang perang Iran. Umat Kristen marah atas pernyataannya. news.detik.com/internasional/…

@logos_id Dulu juga gitu min, wkt tulisan muncul sebagai sesuatu yg revolusioner di masanua, ada juga yg anti sama tulisan sebagai tool untuk membantu pengembangan pikiran. AI itu sama kyk bulpen, klo tulisannya itu jelek itu bkn krn bulpennya. Teknologi itu adalah exosomatic mnrt Stiegler

Yes stop using AI. Kembalilah ke corat-coret, ingat hubungan sebuah teks dengan pengetahuan dan afeksi sendiri, pertanyakan segala hal di teks. Your whole self isn't that low untuk digantikan dengan AI slop, apalagi kalau mau masuk di dunia akademia.

@NickabensonY @GoogleAI Thank you for the feedback! Would it be challenging to hear the voice over with background music?

I do like the new NotebookLM cinematic overview feature. I think the lack of music makes it a little dull, but the actual content itself is great. @GoogleAI @NotebookLM

@NotebookLM @YahooSports please add transcript to audio overview. Also add tts to chat

You’ve been reading Nietzsche completely wrong. He wasn’t an atheist. He was a mystic. 1. His great work, Zarathustra, is a religious text inspired by a mystical experience in Switzerland. 2. Nietzsche had a precognitive dream that shaped his metaphysics: as a young boy he dreamed of his dead father rising from the grave and taking his infant brother … who soon fell ill and died. 3. People read his claims that he was “Buddha” and “Dionysius” as madness. Yet those are his most profound statements. 4. He hated not Christ but Christianity. In short, Nietzsche is spiritual but not religious. This is the claim of my guest Rice University’s Jeff Kripal who will give us a mystical reading of Nietzsche’s Übermensch. Jeff himself is a scholar of mysticism who had a transformative mystical experience while researching Hinduism in Calcutta as a young man. Jeff witnessed the erotic presence of a Hindu goddess as a grad student decades ago, and has since been wrestling with his experience through his writing. His ambition is for his writing to engender similar mystical states in your life and he sees the same mystical inspiration in Nietzsche. These interviews with Jeff have been the most transformative I’ve ever done since starting this project. As a religious seeker I haven’t found a contemporary scholar who is able to tie together classical religion, the great books, and new age spirituality in one philosophical framework quite as Jeff has. What you are going to hear in this interview then isn’t just a new way to read Nietzsche, but a new way to read the entire canon as mystical. Plato, Dante, Homer, Fuerbach, James, Hegel we’ve been reading all of these thinkers completely wrong as we have with Nietzsche. Jeff is leading nothing less than a Copernican revolt against the materialist orthodoxy of the humanities.
