I like the visual identity of M&S' "Kanata Classics" series, but it is undeniably funny how they sanitized "Bear" lol

"Nets give us forceful hypotheses not because we collectively accept them but because they run on the collective systems of signs that already have the force of social value in them. The social system of judgment is mirrored and then extended into uncanny statistical regions..."

Finally getting around to recommitting to this book today and it's already blowing me away. A demanding read but thoroughly worth it so far.
Pretty fatigued by reading about AI right now, but this is proving to be an exception.

Looks like he's gonna be tackling "agentic" AI within the start-up space.
Can't wait, to be honest.

Half-formed paper idea where one compares the proceduralist governance systems of liberalism to robots.txt and explores the breakdown of proceduralism both politically and in terms of norms of protocol.

![The effectiveness of traditional protocols like robots.txt has also diminished. While this voluntary compliance system worked well with earlier generations of web crawlers, many AI training bots now ignore these requests entirely—representing a departure from established internet norms and etiquette: “The [robots.txt] protocol has not proven to be as effective in the context of bots building AI training datasets. Respondents reported that robots.txt is being ignored by many (although not necessarily all) AI scraping bots. This was widely viewed as breaking the norms of the internet, and not playing fair online” (Weinberg 2025).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iw32pwzk7fmq7t7h3thnbild/bafkreiarx6i4vnbdn2ncgwwyqvrd4ehcg4jpydytvj4ebuxl4bwt4t5upe@jpeg)
