@pp3dp_se @MBrgger The mole is also on Twitter… 😮 x.com/TheMoleUlrich/…
The default design for tech always must give a human enough time to override any automated decision made by an algorithm.
On September 26, 1983, Stanislav Petrov prevented nuclear war by challenging the Soviet nuclear early-warning system Oko.

@anderslindberg @deeped Ah, ok, det är ju eventuellt klurigare beroende på vilken tjänst som används för automat-postningen, men egentligen samma regler för en sådan. Sedan är det ju alltid trevligt när automat-postningar undviks och man lägger tid på något personligt. 😊
↪ Replying to @anderslindberg
@anderslindberg @deeped Jag tänker att Twitter alltid tillåter att man fyller med mer text som kan sammanfatta texten, lägga till hashtags samt även avsändare om man vill skapa mervärde. Om teknikerna gör ingenting, så blir det bara rubrik.

@IEthics @darianrosebrook Haha, thanks for clarifying!
When you pull into the gas station just as the low fuel light starts flashing - a winning feeling. ✌️

This documentary is giving me shivers by the minute... Available to watch on BBC and on Scandinavian public television.

A bit more background...

JFC... Alejandro describing the Ugandan people... 🤢
The hospital lie to make the island inhabitants welcoming… 😰 Corruption and exploitation is just as bad as I imagined, when I hoped it wouldn't be... 😪
Watching this was 2 hours well-spent. Mindblowing, riveting, shocking, nail-biting and dismal... but also satisfying that they actually pulled it off. x.com/MBrgger/status…

@_anith @darianrosebrook Even just killing Google Analytics on my blog (and not replacing it with open source stats) made me feel better. 😊
↪ Replying to @darianrosebrook
@darianrosebrook @_anith Yes, there is definitely a fluctuation; also due to fake accounts following many people and then being regularly purged by Twitter. So definitely a question of correlation not being equal to causation.
↪ Replying to @unknown
@_anith @darianrosebrook Agree. And what also worries me is that people are keeping such a close eye on how each tweet affects number of followers up and down... Can't be healthy. Makes me think that follower count should be an average, and only updated once every few days or something like that.
Ever more often I wonder if we understand what we've built and are partaking in… x.com/IEthics/status…
↪ Replying to @darianrosebrook
@darianrosebrook Huh, why did they delete that... maybe a typo. They tweeted the same one again: x.com/iethics/status…
@darianrosebrook I made a new identical tweet to replace the one at the top of this thread :) x.com/axbom/status/1…
Today I'm looking for clarity on the context in which @Apple requested @Telegram take down protestor channels in Belarus. Apple have reportedly denied the actions as described by Telegram, but something rotten is certainly going on.
I'll keep this thread updated. >>
The story as it played out started with reports like these:

ht @jenswedin
And then reports of Apple claiming not to have requested channels be taken down, only specific messages. Which can of course be sufficiently problematic.

@ErikBernskiold "Kapat" känns i sammanhanget rimligare. Men det är inte en kulle jag kommer dö på 😅
@ErikBernskiold Gissar att lösenordet var Sommar2016. Känns som det vanligaste när en IT-organisation ska återställa alla lösenord efter sommaren... 😝
