Rebecca Solnit · In the Shadow of Silicon Valley: Losing San Francisco

"There is an underlying assumption that each of us aspires to be as productive as possible, and that stripping away everything seen to interfere with productivity is a good thing."

San Francisco as a stark warning to the world.

Ultimamente apanho cada vez mais gente que, quando surge o tema da subida de casos de #covid, se apressa a proclamar que já não toma mais vacinas. Aconteceu tanto com espanhóis como portugueses.
Sou só eu, ou é um episódio comum? E quais os motivos - as vacinas têm assim tantos problemas?

Oh well, much as it hurts, here's a very good reason not to watch the next season of White Lotus, and leave it terrible reviews https://mastodon.ie/@EugeneMcParland/111781287032758518

Sub-toot: migrantes do #twitter que estão aqui de passagem para encontrar convites para o #bluesky, sois uns tontos. E pior, um desperdício de recursos de servidor.

Aprendam com os erros que todos fizemos, confiar em redes centralizadas, e entrem a pés juntos nesta "nova" aventura do #fediverso :mastodondance2:

On that note, I'm spending some time over the next couple of weeks learning #Elixir to ramp up for my new role. I've already been recommended Phoenix's tutorials, hit me up with more suggestions if you have them :D

Two last days in my current job, and it's a procession of goodbyes. I hate goodbyes. What is the professional equivalent of ghosting? #immature #millennial

Como o som do festival chega até aqui a este lado do rio, fui espreitar o cartaz de #VilarDeMouros. Tive de verificar e voltar a verificar, porque podia ser praticamente o mesmo cartaz de há mais de quinze anos atrás :farnsworth:

"Que pão andamos a comer?" é o primeiro episódio de "Próprio para Consumo". A pergunta sobre um alimento tão básico afinal pode não ter resposta assim tão simples.

“Essentially, overshoot is a crisis of human behaviour,” says Merz. “For decades we’ve been telling people to change their behaviour without saying: ‘Change your behaviour.’ We’ve been saying ‘be more green’ or ‘fly less’, but meanwhile all of the things that drive behaviour have been pushing the other way. All of these subtle cues and not so subtle cues have literally been pushing the opposite direction – and we’ve been wondering why nothing’s changing.”

In the face of metahuman science, humans have become metascientists.

The growing popularity of #degrowth - Grist

"the original goal of the degrowth movement was to be a “shit disturber” — to provoke thought, and cause people to question the way economic growth is prioritized in our society and embedded in our policies.

Saito admits the idea of widespread degrowth is “in some sense utopian.” But, he adds, “believing that capitalism will prosper in the decades to come is utopian, too.”"
