Oon ehdolla kuntavaaleissa 2025 #Oulu. Nyt olen ollut tasa-arvo ja yhdenvertaisuustoimikunnassa, ja muuten talkoilin vihreiden valtakunnallista elinkeinopoliittista ohjelmaa työryhmässä. Paljon risteävätkin yhdenvertaisuus ja mm. työelämän asiat.

Maybe a little.

Then I went to check what Claude Code had done yesterday evening when it was debugging a case where a game we are making gets stuck sometimes. I realized an architectural improvement and asked it to do it while I was helping the kids with breakfast. By lunch it had completed fixes.

I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥

There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️

They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬

Nykyisistä kielimalleista on hyötyä lähinnä ohjelmistokehityksen apuna.

Eli jos voi kehittää ohjelmistoja, joista on hyötyä ekologisen toiminnan kannalta, niin tekoälystä tulee epäsuoraa hyötyä.

Esimerkiksi jos kiertotalouden fiksuun organisointiin auttaa jotkin tietojärjestelmät.

David Graeber Institute @davidgraeberinst.bsky.social · 15d

Dancing frogs have become a symbol of resistance in the USA.

Interestingly, over a decade ago David Graeber wrote a piece on the power of such symbols in protest movements.

The piece is called - On the Phenomenology of Giant Puppets. Here is an extract.

I also want to ask why it is that American police seem to hate the giant
puppets (at protests). As many activists have observed, the forces of
order in the United States seem to have a profound aversion to giant
puppets.

Often police strategies aim to destroy or capture them before they can
even appear on the streets. As a result, a major concern for those
planning actions soon became how to hide the puppets so they would
not be destroyed in preemptive attacks. What’s more, for many individual
officers at least, the objection to puppets appeared to be not merely
strategic, but personal, even visceral. Cops just hate puppets
.

OECD:n ratkaisu on kolmiosainen:
– palautetaan progressiivisuus tuloveroihin ja omaisuuteen,
– tukitaan veropohjan vuodot ja estetään verosuunnittelu,
– ja rakennetaan globaalia verokoordinaatiota, joka palauttaa valtioille kyvyn verottaa pääomaa oikeudenmukaisesti.

I don’t know if everything will be okay on the other side of this but at least the No King Protest yesterday showed that people are not going to let the slide to fascism happen without fight.

EU's plan to phase out Russian energy clears first political hurdle

European Union countries' ambassadors on Wednesday agreed to move ahead with the bloc's plan to end Russian oil and gas imports by 2028, EU diplomats said, clearing the law's first political hurdle before governments vote on it later this month.

Ei se talouden ja julkisen talouden ennustaminen niin vaikeaa ole.

#talous #politiikka #media

‼️ @ku.fi 10.9.2023 ‼️:

KU 10.9.2023:

Jos talouden tulonmuodostuskyky heikkenee oleellisesti, tarkoittaa se Suomen olosuhteissa todennäköisesti julkisen sektorin alijäämien kasvua, kun verotulot pienenevät ja etuusmenot kasvavat muun muassa työttömyyden lisääntymisen seurauksena.

Silloin voi käydä sitten niin, että hallitusohjelman toimista huolimatta alijäämät pysyvät ennallaan tai kasvavat siitä kymmenestä miljardista eurosta. Oikein huonossa suhdanteessa esimerkiksi työttömyysturvaan toteutetut leikkaukset saattavat lisäksi voimistaa taantumaa, jolloin niiden julkista taloutta vahvistava vaikutus menetetään kansantalouden supistumisen kautta.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

This is the President explicitly threatening to withhold federal funds from New York City if voters elect a candidate he opposes.

This is an unlawful attempt to coerce voters through federal financial threats and a textbook example of voter intimidation to influence the outcome of a local election.

The fact that in our lifetimes, global temperatures could reach higher than ever over the past 3,000,000 years is hard to comprehend.

The last glacial maximum, when sea levels were 134 m lower than today, was only 23,000 years ago.

Toki sellaisen nimittäminen ministeriksi on aika sama kuin jos valtion budjetin laadinnassa käytettävää Exceliä nimittäisi kans ministeriksi, mutta se nyt varmaan vaan onkin markkinointitemppu jolla näkyvyyttä onkin tullut.

Tässä ei paljoa kerrottu mitä se tekee.

Jossain oli että tarkastaa päätöksiä, jotta niissä ei olisi korruption tuomaa puolueellisuutta, esim. hankinnoissa. Sellaiseen hakutoimintoja ja kielimallia yhdessä käyttävät seulomiskone voi varmaan olla ihan auttava. Analysoi tarjoukset ja hankintadokut.
