I wanted to ditch Google News, but the alternatives made it worse

I tried quitting Google News and tested its alternatives on Android. None matched its mix of personalization, aggregation, and reliability.

Absolutely correct. We cannot claim some moral high ground in condemning Russia and applauding Israel.

“If we defend international law in Ukraine, then we must defend
international law in Gaza.”
“We must end the policy of double standards.”

Comienzo este lunes con la columna de la contraportada del @NoticiasDeNavarra escribiendo sobre el asunto este de la redes sociales y el acceso de los menores: #ENREDADOS

https://www.noticiasdenavarra.com/opinion/2026/02/08/enredados-10674466.html
"...Esta semana, el anuncio del Gobierno español de limitar el acceso a menores de 16 años ha despertado no solo la queja de los ultramillonarios y de los ultras en general –que saben que, con algoritmos que priman la desinformación y el odio, perderían un aliado clave de su manipulación–, sino también dudas razonables sobre si será una medida efectiva..."

Diario de Noticias de Navarra

Enredados

Hace años me fui de las redes sociales que poseen esos tecnooligarcas metidos a políticos totalitarios; aún así no he podido desentenderme de ellas, porque me siguen llegando sus historias a través de otros medios digitales que sigo usando. Esta semana, el anuncio del Gobierno español de limitar el acceso a menores de 16 años ha despertado no solo la queja de los ultramillonarios y de los ultras en general –que saben que, con algoritmos que priman la desinformación y el odio, perderían un aliado clave de su manipulación–, sino también dudas razonables sobre si será una medida efectiva.

Wczoraj w #OkoPress pisałem o pomyśle, by Centralny Ośrodek Informatyki ogarnął pakiet biurowy dla polskiej administracji:
https://oko.press/czy-instytucje-polskiego-panstwa-zdolamy-uwolnic-od-googla-i-microsoftu

Centralny Ośrodek Informatyki chce budować rozwiązania dla polskiej administracji w oparciu o otwarte oprogramowanie. Projekt ma mieć poparcie ministra cyfryzacji.

Świetnie! Czas najwyższy na uniezależnienie od usług i produktów monopolistów z USA.

Zadanie nie będzie jednak łatwe.

@rysiek no dobra, tylko czemu mamy budować swoją wersję, zamiast dogadać się z Francją czy/i Niemcami, którzy także takie rozwiązania budują i zrobić coś jednego i porządnego, z którego będą korzystać wszyscy? Bo Niemcy budują OpenDesk, a Francja La Suite Numerique.
Czy naprawdę potrzebujemy "Biuro 2137" (nazwa robocza), jako kolejnej alternatywy?

Could someone enlighten me as to the idea behind asking people to RSVP for a protest? It just seems like a really bad idea, to someone with a public health research perspective on personal info ("if you don't collect it, you don't have to protect it.")

I am not defending the practice, but RSVPs would be very valuable for anything where you want to build growing attendance at a series of events. It’s the fundamentals of event marketing. Also, RSVPs, even if incomplete, probably help predict crowd size. If you’re applying for permits, you need to plan for crowd control.

A great Gladys West obituary, a woman intrinsic to the development of GPS and GIS more generally (among other things).

Because history is overflowing with Father of Tech Things (often at the expense of hidden & brilliant women doing the heavy lifting), let's call her the Mother of GPS

Lawson has disclosed that she burns calories in
the privacy of her home by running on a
treadmill in just her underwear.
"Exercise is the only thing that means I can still
eat. It's about keeping the status quo," said the
cookery writer and presenter.
"I've got a treadmill upstairs. I lock the door so
no-one can come in. I just wear a bra and a pair
of trainers and I play very loud music - disco and
1980s - and sing.
