Thank you Toby

@neil

Huge thanks to the hackerspace courier network (via @m) for getting a #emfcamp badge backboard that i was missing, to #oshcamp for me!
So it's only fitting that I'm going for a Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction vibe for my badge

@neil Staycation for me is staying at home and reading, painting or coding. If I have to pack bags, then it's a normal holiday.

Might be useful for an #AILiteracy lesson, although we sometimes "simulate" understanding, too.

"Sostiene Pereira di averlo conosciuto in un giorno d’estate. Una magnifica giornata d’estate, soleggiata e ventilata, e Lisbona sfavillava. Pare che Pereira stesse in redazione, non sapeva che fare, il direttore era in ferie, lui si trovava nell’imbarazzo di mettere su la pagina culturale, perché il “Lisboa” aveva ormai una pagina culturale, e l’avevano affidata a lui. E lui, Pereira, rifletteva sulla morte. Quel bel giorno d’estate, con la brezza atlantica che accarezzava le cime degli alberi e il sole che splendeva, e con una città che scintillava, letteralmente scintillava sotto la sua finestra, e un azzurro, un azzurro mai visto, sostiene Pereira, di un nitore che quasi feriva gli occhi, lui si mise a pensare alla morte. Perché? Questo a Pereira è impossibile dirlo."

My friends, please give these thoughts very serious consideration.

In England I'd have to agree but it's different up here in Scotland.

Fuck Palantir.

German public broadcasting did a podcast series called "Inside Palantir" where they interviewed an ex-employee of Palantir and whistleblower.

The whistleblower said that when you apply at #Palantir, you are asked: "How comfortable are you to work on software that is used to kill people?"

I simply refuse to believe that anyone (including an utterly naive twenty-something who freshly graduated from college and never reads any newspaper) could accidentally slide into a job at Palantir without knowing what Palantir is doing and what they're applying for.

I refuse to believe, "I didn't know what I was signing up for when I applied at Palantir—I was so inexperienced and naive—but now that I'm at Palantir and know better, I cannot resign because my health insurance is tied to this job."

When you apply at Palantir, you know full well what you're signing up for. The CEO is not exactly shy about it, newspapers report about it, and Palantir itself fucking tells you—before you even get your contract, during your application—that they will use *your work* to kill people. You cannot land the job without knowing you'll be an accessory to murder.

Fuck Palantir. Fuck everyone who works for them. Fuck everyone who works for them and refuses to resign.

Resigning from Palantir won't clear the blood from your hands when you knowingly accepted their offer in the first place, resigning won't open the gates to Heaven for you. But it is a great and necessary first step.

The podcast series will be released on July 31.

Wer hat das Ministerium damals geleitet ???

I'm not the only one to note that there is something very wrong in this country when criminal damage to a golf course is rendered as 'terrorism' but marauding white gangs threatening & terrorising people from ethnic minorities are treated as having 'legitimate grievances';

there was a time when I thought claims we were on the road the fascism were over-wrought & hyperbolic, but I have come to the conclusion they were right & I was being complacent.

Democracy is disappearing fast!
