Well, since he always said he'd release his taxes after audits were done, I guess we can expect full disclosure, huh? Crook. This is authoritarian-level corruption. Cover it that way.

@JessTheUnstill I like your line of thinking!
@neil @JessTheUnstill I recall signing a petition to that effect a while back. The government's response was like, 'LOL, no. We would never interfere with a business to tell them what they can and can't do. Because DEMOCRACY!!' 🙄

New blog post: "Automating science"

How much of scientific research can be automated? And is this a good idea?

I have been very tired in the past few days… not only physically, but emotionally as well. As a mother, I try to stay strong in front of my children, but the reality we are living in is harder than I can bear.
Until this moment, my family and I still need your support and donations. We have no source of income, my husband is ill, and my children are young and depend on me for everything.
Sometimes I feel helpless… but I still have hope in your kind hearts. You are my only hope

Make your voice heard. There's not much time left!

@blogdiva Once again for all the hackers in the room:
WE NEED TO HARD FORK ANDROID RIGHT GODDAMN NOW AND DE-GOOGLE THE ENTIRE FUCKING ECOSYSTEM OF IT.
I think this exists, possibly in the plural? I think the main obstacle is that users of existing hardware need to figure out how to root their devices (not always possible), and the Google version is still (as I understand it) lurking deep in the firmware.
(I am not an authoritative source on this, and could definitely be wrong about everything, possibly all the time*.)

@farah I love them. Every once in a while I'll buy a carton of the things from the US. Stupidly exxy to have them sent to Aus but sometimes you have to have some of the absurdly crispy cheesy things
@nicksilkey @thomasfuchs
I suggest that something else should be an industry movement to force the US government to enforce anti-competition laws against Google. And Meta. And Apple.
@bruce @nicksilkey you’re not wrong, but this is increasingly more unlikely to ever happen

What if we thought about digital spaces like an ecologist?
We’d consider the incredible communities that come together over the interwebs – yes, even through social media – in a totally different way.

@shnizmuffin yeah I probably should have stressed that this is like watching The Room - you have to do it at least once, to understand how bad it is.
