@eternaltyro That was a really good read! Thank you đ
Appreciated the nuclear vs solar narrative, which brought a lot of clarity.
I havenât seen Oppenheimer yet but it feels a good opportunity today to draw these parallells as this is currently top-of-mind in more societal contexts. This has given me lots of ideas for new content.

@chris Gah. I actually did not know that.
@potato_lisper I agree, this is a disadvantage. But less of a dilemma in situations where everyoneâs phone number should already be known by all participants.
If you are seriously considering new default software for video meetings, donât discount Signal.
Signal allows up to 40 people in the same meeting.
Using Signal Desktop, you can share a screen or separate window while on a call. You can share your screen if no one else is presenting. Your own video will not be shown while you are presenting.
To start or stop sharing while on a call, select the presenting icon with the box with an arrow pointing up.
Why Signal?
âState-of-the-art end-to-end encryption (powered by the open source Signal Protocol) keeps your conversations secure. We can't read your messages or listen to your calls, and no one else can either. Privacy isnât an optional mode â itâs just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time.â

I really want to work more with human rights in the digitalisation space. If you see any roles like this, think of me. đ„°

Added to my reading list: The Courage of Compassion by Robin Steinberg
"How would you like to be judged for the rest of your life by the worst thing you've ever done?
We all think we are compassionate just like we all think we are honest. But true compassion is not innate. Compassion for others, especially those that we don't know or understand, must be learned.
Our lack of compassion is perhaps most extreme in the exercise of criminal justice, where a person's entire life, worth, and character are judged through the myopic lens of a single act. But no one, says Robin Steinberg, should be reduced to their worst moment.
From the founder and CEO of The Bail Project, The Courage of Compassion unveils how we can reimagine justice through compassion. Steinberg shares her journey as a public defender, representing people at precisely that time in their lives -- their own worst moment."

In 2020 I wrote this post on why I avoid using Zoom for meetings. In case you're not aware that there has always been good reason for this.

If youâve ever wanted a one-page website for free, and the ability to connect your domain name to that website, also on the free plan(!), this new service looks really promising: realnice

@jwleblan I wouldn't have it any other way đ
@kolombiken
Eller hur, det blir tydligt nÀr man vÀl tÀnkt tanken. Nu tÀnker jag inte att nÄgon medvetet menar annat Àn vÀl, men beroende av sammanhang kan det ju ge fel signal.
@kolombiken Tack, bra pĂ„minnelse! đ
Pride-vecka. Du som Àr intresserad av historiken kring alla Pride-annonser frÄn Försvarsmakten kan lÀsa min artikel frÄn 2021.
Jag har Àven uppdaterat med helsidesannonserna för bÄde 2022 och 2023. Detsamma gÀller annonserna som gÄtt ut i samband med Internationella kvinnodagen.

@JoWa
Jag Ă€r inte dĂ€r Ă€nnu. đ
Har lÀst en tredjedel.
MÄste jobba mycket med min confirmation bias sÄ jag inte reagerar för mycket pÄ sÄdant som kanske inte Àr sÄ problematiskt men som jag genast kÀnner olust över.
@tsvenson Jag har inte följt honom tillrÀckligt lÀnge för att veta hur han förÀndrats. Har mest sett hans fokus pÄ alarmismen och sedan andras kritik mot Future of Life Institute.
@tsvenson
VÀldigt bra att det hÀr lyfts.
LÀgger nÄgra lÀnkar hÀr för den som vill fördjupa sig:

Just. Wow.
I hadn't realised the new X sign on the Twitter building was blinking in a way that could trigger epilepsy attacks.
Do not watch if you are sensitive to flashing lights.

@JoWa Det var en riktigt bra lösning. Tack!
@anders Yes, och lyssningsbar i podd eller SR-appen/webben redan nu.
Jag vĂ€ntar lite đ
