@jarango @steveportigal @danachis It is also my experience that there’s long been a deep and misguided fascination with IQ, which is what I was hoping to illustrate. Here is another example:
”If you target a broad consumer audience, you will also have a higher IQ than your average user”

@onsman Fun fact, the Swedish name of my book is Digital omtanke where the word "omtanke" is compassion. But it can also be interpreted as the noun of the verb "tänka om" (rethink). Making the title also "Digital rethink". 😁
@onsman The English translator attempted an English version of this, using considerate and reconsider. Never made it to the cover, but I appreciated the effort.

@DonnaLanclos Haha, excellent point. I tend to more often use the word ’listening’ so I was kind of frustrated at first that I had sketched it out like this. My counterpoint would be that researchers too often assume they understand without putting more effort into truly understanding.

@StacyHolmstedt @nickf Damn, I didn't think of that! 😂 Well of course not, I don't have the capacity to think like that. 😮

@PiSquare They’ve been using variants of this ad since 2015.

@karenmcgrane Wild, Do you know if they reuse the same text every two years, or if they actually do recruit more often than the ad itself claims?

@HERO_Respondi Wow, thanks, this is a great writeup. Adding the show to my podcast queue.

@HERO_Respondi My take: One easily gets entrenched in blanket statements w/o defining what regulation is in focus and what we mean by innovation. If something stifles harmful innovation, I'm all for it :)
Play can certainly discover harm but one often needs regulation to be watchful of it.
@HERO_Respondi I think what I wrote on the Hippocratic Oath here relates to this:

@JaredFossey I had to google what Google Duo is and that cracked me up.

@DorotheaBaur I've blocked the ability to send a connection request without knowing my e-mail address and it's bliss. 😊
I also use an e-mail address there that nobody knows. 😂

@KakemboSofia @matthewsyed Fun fact. The syndrome was first called Norrmalmstorgssyndromet. That would have been a mouthful in English 😂

@KakemboSofia @matthewsyed Nope, tyvärr. ☹️

@KakemboSofia @matthewsyed 👍 Last year I read the book written by the woman herself who was held hostage in the bank heist that gave rise to the name. Mind-blowing and heartbreaking stuff.
