Perpetually mystified | Views are mine.
It’s as though there were at least three co-occurring performances and because they weren’t well weaved, or couldn’t be weaved, I’m picking up notes of deception.

Dunno. It’s off.

I feel this in my marrow.

Great contribution, thank you Colin!

Only for you Colin:

President’s Choice is a store brand in Canada. Sometimes they do brand extensions called Memories Of.

Martha Feldman…well…she’s the patron saint of the quantitative policy wonk. A lot of the pain in your paper (that I feel) is a reminder of “Order Without Design” (1989).

Trustworthy expert input continues to be a problem for the Intergovernmental Working Group negotiating the PABS Annex (the mechanism for vaccine access in the next pandemic). But we can build better mechanisms for evidence synthesis and expert input for both the near- and long-term. (2/3)

Saw some good stuff. Saw one presentation where zero fucks were given about secondary or tertiary knocking effects of their tech. They weren’t even conscious of it.

New experience for me to watch it live. Thankful for that.

…glory to those developing adversarial protocols today.

General observation from the networking phase: those who have experience leading multiple software teams in meatspace take a different approach to architecting their OpenClaw experience than those who have yet to have had that privilege/responsibility.

It’s understandable as to why people are mistrustful.

The accountability for overpromising manifests as disbelief at best, and disengagement at its absolute worst.

And, plenty of people have a tough time distinguishing Big Tech from tech from the tech.

The value of a testimonial, a streeter, is social proof. Social proof is the essence of imitation, and it drives diffusion. It makes-believe.

Which segment of the population would credit Maxwell’s claims with credibility? Harbingers of Failure maybe? The lucrative QANON Prepper?
