I've done enough coaching to recognize that I am in a stage of transformation. I'm disillusioned, searching, discovering, evaluating. This could continue for months or years. Still, I'm excited to find out what's after this phase. 🐛

My heart goes out to all the people confused by how the same country can occupy both first and second place in this list over the world's most innovative countries.

This 1995 piece by Clifford Stoll is a cult classic example of predictions gone wrong. But sometimes I read it and wonder if there are a few things he did get right.

”Every voice can be heard cheaply and instantly. The result? Every voice is heard. The cacophany more closely resembles citizens band radio, complete with handles, harrasment, and anonymous threats. When most everyone shouts, few listen.”
”What Internet hucksters won't tell you is the Internet is one big ocean of unedited data, without pretense of completeness. Lacking editors, reviewers or critics, the Internet has become a wasteland of unfiltered data. You don't know what to ignore and what's worth reading.”
”[…] this nonplace lures us to surrender our time on earth. A poor substitute it is, this virtual reality where frustration is legion and where—in the holy names of Education and Progress—important aspects of human interactions are relentlessly devalued.”
Immediately made me think:

I’ve been a huge fan of Indi Young’s work for many, many years and was super excited for James and myself to have her as a guest on UX Podcast. Design is ready for a shift towards better care for human wellbeing and I believe we need thinkers like Indi to guide us on this path.

1/2 I have a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and was on my regular checkup today (no worries). I had forgotten my id but we joked they could tell it was me via the ultrasound of my heart.
This made me recall writings about heartbeats as biometric markers.
2/2 Your heartbeat - or cardiac signature - is completely unique and unlike your face or fingerprint it can't be altered in any way. Moreover, the surface movement on the skin caused by your heartbeat can be scanned from 200m away. That was 3 years ago 😬 engadget.com/2019-06-27-the…

@marmurube I don't know anyone close that does, but you're right that online training is the most obvious route. I'm now thinking the foundation for tech ethics doesn't change as often as UX…
Me: I'd like to figure out a way to make money without having to sell my presence in real time (consulting).
My wife: Well you could stop giving away so much content for free!
Me: Well, I don't want to do that!!
This conversation has been on repeat for years. I'm a bit slow 😅
Även om du grovt feltolkar din data, så är du fortfarande "datadriven".
Grattis. 😁

Congratulations.
