It could be time for a new season of [[Node Club]]β¦
I should back up my Doom config on Termux.
[[Listened]] to [[Degrowth vs Eco-Modernism]]
[[Listened]] to [[Is the Middle East on the brink?]]
[[Shells]].
Listened to [[Israelβs AI Kill List: βOnce you go automatic, target generation goes crazy.β]]
Read: [[Emacs: Dead and Loving It]]
Working on some improvements to the look and feel of my writing mode that I use when in org-roam.for Emacs.
(setq helm-case-fold-search t)
and all is good - much smoother completion experience.Listened to [[New Economics Podcast: Should we be going for growth?]]
[[Listened]] to [[Ghosts in the Machines: Artificial Intelligence, Consciousness, & Capitalism]]
[[Habitat loss]].
[[Film theory]] looks at films and the effect they have on society.
Learning about [[biodiversity]] via the Kinna app.
Listened to [[Post Capitalism w/ Alnoor Ladha]]
[[Listened]] to [[Should the UK stop arming Israel?]]
[[Nonprofits should (almost) never write their own software]]
My publish.el file would be a good candidate for a literate config approach. Would make it more useful for other people to make use of then I think. Also would make me tidy it up.
Listened again to [[Nathan Schneider on Building Democratic Governance on the Internet]]
When I get a moment I’ll make a page of gardening tasks for myself.
[[Ecology]].
I’m getting more into the groove with [[fish]] on desktop the more that I use it.
I would just like to take a moment to lament the fact that I have received an email inviting me to become a Certified Generative AI Specialist.
Idle thought: maybe the world would be a better place if the de facto ‘learn to code’ tutorial was not a todo list (individual productivity) but a simple group poll (collective decision-making).
Had a quick read about [[Passkeys]].
Listened to [[Platforms for Public Good w/ Mathew Lawrence & Thomas Hanna]]
[[Listened]] to [[Hotel Bar Sessions: Whose Anthropocene?]]
Also [[listened]] to [[Envisioning Platform Socialism w/ James Muldoon]]
Following a stumble through the garden related to [[technology and political economy]], re-reading [[The Telekommunist Manifesto]].
Also plan to re-read [[The British Digital Cooperative: A New Model Public Sector Institution]].
Late night [[listened]] to [[Whatβs the Value of Data? (ft. SalomΓ© Viljoen)]]
Also listened to [[The Supermarket into Prison Pipeline]]
Pretty much always find [[This Machine Kills]] interesting, whatever the topic.
Thinking about how I would go about [[adding planted and last tended dates to pages in my digital garden]].
Although in general it feels the same (possibly slower? because I didn’t compile it myself?), one thing that is much faster in Emacs 28 is the parsing of my huge Tasks.org file for work. Thumbs up.
I’d like to tweak my garden a bit such that I have ‘planted’ and ‘last tended’ dates on each page.
[[org-timeblock]] looks pretty good and like it’d fill my desire for a timeblocking tool for org-mode.
We [[watched]] [[Soul]] again.
I [[listened]] to [[What Social Media Meant for the Mass Protest Decade w/ Vincent Bevins]]
Also listened to [[Why Tech Makes Us More Insecure w/ Astra Taylor]]
We have [[national insurance]] in the UK.
Never really thought much about insurance before.
Returning a little to [[IndieWeb]] for following activity streams. I had been using the Fediverse for a while, but I find it a bit too fast paced, a bit too attention grabbing. For me. IndieWeb is kind of slow social media and that suits me fine.
hyperorg could be useful for me.
Listened: [[Yanis Varoufakis, "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism"]]
[[Listened]]: [[Democracy for sale, Europeβs first black leader + tea with Obama]]
[[Listened]]: [[Black Box: Episode 6 β Shut it down?]]
