LinkedIn uppdaterade för några dagar sedan sin policy gällande hatiskt och kränkande innehåll. Specifikt har man tagit bort formuleringar som inneburit ett tydligt ställningstagande mot trakasserier riktade mot transpersoner.

Many more countries in favor of/ undecided with regards to #ChatControl than in 2024, even though the 2025 version is more far-reaching.
Take action: chatcontrol.eu
TLDR: If you’ve ever used the share function on a ChatGPT chat, that chat can be found via Google, viewable by anyone.
All these chats can be found via keywords.
Chats about mental health, abuse, confidential data… it’s all there.

If people are wildly optimistic and non-critical about deploying something that is destructive, I’m not sure that should be framed as a positive.
And continuing on this, if I am being critical of optimism in this scenario, that’s not ”slowing progress” or ”being backwards”.
This all reminds me of when people are understandably confused by ”negative” results in healthcare, when they can be the most welcome of news.
I doodled…
If you’re in Europe and want to use an alternative to LinkedIn, I’d suggest trying out Xing.
It’s a Hamburg-based service that has been around since 2003. It’s popular in Germany (of course) and from what I understand, also Spain.

3 web browsers to check out.
1) DuckDuckGo. Yes, not just a search engine.
2) Orion. By the same people who make Kagi.
3) Vivaldi. By one of the cofounders of Opera, and with a ton of nifty features (which may or may not interest you)
1) duckduckgo.com/browser
2) kagi.com/orion/
3) vivaldi.com
This can not be repeated enough.
@fasterandworse.com: When the ultimate problem of an uninhabitable planet is believed to be solvable by AI then AI is seen as the solution to all problems. There is no more thought about the satisfaction of purposes. In the eyes of an AI believer, purposes exist to satisfy their belief in AI. 4/x

Den här borde jag delat i början av semestern, men får bli en påminnelse om att stänga av vidarekopplingen.

If you search for ”managed Ghost hosting” there are quite a few suppliers these days. I’d say that is the best option when you don’t want to bother with installs and updates.
I know Hostup in Sweden offers this. hostup.se/en/

Now that the ever-present Nazi streaks of Substack are being talked about again, I really recommend reading @molly.wiki's reasoning and guide for moving a Substack newsletter to a self-hosted instance of Ghost.

I'd check out MailerLite, EmailOctopus or Sendfox. All have free, limited options. Sendfox also has a tier which gives you unlimited sending to a newsletter of 5,000 for a single(!) payment of 49USD.
I personally use a self-installed Ghost platform with Mailgun integration, for full control.
But yeah, I miss Tinyletter...

Det kan du absolut träna upp tänker jag :) Säger jag som inte alls kan själv.
Min PT (för många år sedan) tvingade mig att först göra baklänges-chins för att träna upp styrkan - alltså först hänga i den övre positionen (ta sig upp med en pall eller något) för att sedan långsamt sänka sig ner.
