When (if) you open social media in the morning, do you have a defined time window or do you allow yourself to browse unconditionally?

@ifindkarma @ishyamo @jessicamalonso I was mostly referring to influence over behavior. But these are all good points. Facebook often emphasises "we do not sell your data" and then lets advertisers target vulnerable teenagers. But few ask if they *buy* data. Yael's thread in Jessica's follow-up tweet was also good.

@ifindkarma @ishyamo @jessicamalonso Important to note that deleting a FB account
1) greatly reduces the amount of data points they can collect about you
2) reduces the platform's influence over your behavior đ
3) reduces their overall power (more people outside will force companies to invest in other places)
@ifindkarma @ishyamo @jessicamalonso I agree we can not avoid being identified online by tech giants, but I believe it can be misleading to give the impression that the amount of data collection non-FB users are subjected to is anything near the amount of daily users. Also, the data collection is only part of it :)
Just bought An Ugly Truth by @sheeraf and @ceciliakang. As always I love looking at book titles in different languages. In this case I'm also intrigued by the different choices of Mark photos.

"Nu vill jag att du lyssnar. Och försöker förstÄ. BÄde för min och för alla andras skull ocksÄ. För oss som behöver att du förstÄr. För vi behöver dig. Vi behöver din förstÄelse. För att kunna förÀndra. Och prata om det.
[âŠ]
Det hÀr hÀnder. Hela tiden. Runtom i vÄrt land och i vÀrlden. Vi kan inte blunda för det. VÄga öppna ögonen. VÄga frÄga. VÄga vara en dryg jÀvel som frÄgar. Var inte den som blundar och lÄtsas att allt Àr bra. Var den som ser. Det rÀddar liv. Du mÄste acceptera att det kanske inte kommer ett svar första gÄngen du frÄgar. Inte andra eller tredje gÄngen heller. Men kanske den fjÀrde. Eller sÄ kommer personen sjÀlv till dig för att berÀtta. För att personen kÀnt att du finns dÀr. Och lyssnar.
BerĂ€ttar personen att den Ă€r utsatt⊠eller har skickat bilder till nĂ„gon frĂ€mling. Ta hand om den stunden. Lyssna och skuldbelĂ€gg aldrig. Eller ifrĂ„gasĂ€tt inte. LĂ„t personen fĂ„ berĂ€tta i sin takt. Finns dĂ€r oavsett vad du fĂ„r för svar. Du kan hantera det. Ăven om det Ă€r fruktansvĂ€rt jobbigt.
Ta hjÀlp utifrÄn. Det finns en mÀngd organisationer och föreningar som kan stötta och hjÀlpa.
Börja prata tidigt med barnen. BerÀtta vad som kan dyka upp pÄ nÀtet. Om det hÀnder, sÄ Àr det aldrig nÄgonsin barnets fel.
Aldrig.
Visa att du finns dÀr. Om det skulle hÀnda. VÄga prata och frÄga hur barnet mÄr.
Och till dig. Som befinner dig dÀr just nu. Eller som varit dÀr. Till dig vill jag bara sÀga: Jag ser dig. Du Àr inte ensam. Det gÄr att komma ur det hÀr. Trots att det kanske inte kÀnns sÄ. Just nu. Och det viktigaste: Det Àr inte ditt fel.
Det Àr inte ditt fel.
Skulden och skammen ska du inte bÀra. Det Àr de som utnyttjat dig som ska bÀra den. Det Àr deras skam. Inte din.
Det finns mÄnga vuxna som vill hjÀlpa dig. Jag vet att det Àr svÄrt att lita pÄ vuxna. NÀr man blivit sviken och illa behandlad av just vuxna.
Jag trodde nÀr jag var femton att jag aldrig nÄgonsin skulle kunna lita pÄ en enda mÀnniska. Om du inte har nÄgon i din nÀrhet, sÄ finns det ett knapptryck bort. En medmÀnniska som vill lyssna pÄ dig. Som vill hjÀlpa dig.
Jag tror pÄ dig."

@eriksellstrom Jag undrar alltid hur koordinerat sÄn't hÀr kan vara. Man slÀpper nee nÄgra brandfacklor pÄ vÀl valda stÀllen, men hur elden sprider sig kÀnns oförutsÀgbart! Antingen sÄ Àr det förutsÀgbart, eller sÄ Àr det sÄ billigt att göra om experimentet tills man fÄr önskat resultat.
@eriksellstrom Har man tillrÀckligt mÄnga stÀllen att tÀnda pÄ förstÄs, ja dÄ Àr ju effekten ett faktum.

@D20Nat1 This is true, and yet only a small percentage of people given this type of offer tend to agree to it. Which will also relate to who is being offered, how much time and effort is being requested in return, and who is offering.
âȘ Replying to @ishyamo
@ishyamo Good Q. Generally I personally don't look for payment when assisting with research. For me it was just that Amazon was a deterrent in this case, as I realise how much will go there. But I do believe it's fair to reimburse people for their efforts, depending perhaps on context.
â[âŠ] Can we interview you? To thank you for your time and insights, you'll get a $50 Amazon gift card. đâ
Honestly, I donât believe that offer is as enticing as research teams seem to think it is.
And for me, it has the exact opposite effect. âčïž
To be clear: it's pushing money towards Amazon on my behalf, and as part of the research project on many people's behalf, that I would take issue with. It's fair to reimburse people for putting in time and helping out.

@vdignum Excellent stuff Virginia! Will add this to my ethics course curriculum. You're so on target with the complexities.
@vdignum With regards to the reproducing robots I was wondering who was buying filaments for the 3d printer đ
If you work with web in any way you should set aside time to read this.

Are you using "tip of the iceberg"-diagrams in your presentations and explanations? It's very likely you're getting the physics all wrong and your tip may find itself under water.
Just published on my blog: The topple of an iceberg: You're drawing it wrong. https://axbom.com/iceberg/
With a link to the simulator, promising hours of fun.

It turns out all those "tip of an iceberg"-drawings are giving the wrong idea.

@imdoinfine Fixed now. With regards to stopping at two monitors I didnât want to scare people even more than I already do đ

@Hilaryonline Anytime. đ Long time no see. Just want to say I am loving everything that is coming out of @Nexer_Digital and the work youâre doing (which I think I mostly catch up on on LinkedIn). So much positive impact.
âȘ Replying to @imdoinfine
@imdoinfine Right, thank you! I've forgotten to update that part. This was something Apple released after I originally wrote that post.
Will fix immediately.
