This is a good thread on minimum vacation, but also reminds me of how little time off so many workers have across the world. I imagine this creates multitudinous expectations of what work must be and who you work with. x.com/joelgascoigne/…
The fact that they never fixed this makes me wonder if there is a nefarious purpose behind it. Sheesh, why can't I relax about these things... x.com/zendadddy/stat…

@jjoeyka damn!!!
@jjoeyka Added. I use the wonderful iHosts editor to make this a breeze.

I’ve added some sites to my computer’s ‘hosts’ file to prevent my computer from reaching them or triggering them. Every time I click on a link that brings me to for example Facebook and nothing loads I’m like “oh, Facebook is down”. And then a second later I remember. EVERY time.

If this makes you curious, here is how you can edit your hosts file on different operating systems:

Volume of usage is not a success metric for me, unless it is coupled with an indicator of wellbeing.
As it turns out, expressions of appreciation has become my most important metric for online content. Sadly, those sometimes get lost when the focus is too much on likes.
Essentially:
1) Apple is giving people a choice.
2) Facebook knows people will make the choice of not being tracked.
3) Facebook campaigns to block people's ability to choose.
It's just Facebook being Facebooky.

Facebook writes that "Facebook numbers show" that "without personalized ads" small business owners will lose 60% of sales. Who says that personalized ads will disappear completely, even on Apple devices? People can say yes. And there is so much more wrong with their logic...

@EilerNemo Haha, thank you. This gif made my day. Love how it plays on the concept of “convert” ;)
Some people are at odds with my ethical focus.
I submit that I’m not here to convert you. I’m here to offer alternative perspectives of working and evaluating outcomes.
Your autonomy is the point of much of my work. I will encourage curiosity, but I will never use force.
I'm so tired of this absurd statement: "Facebook detects 95% of all hate speech." They can not know this because they DO NOT KNOW how much is UNDETECTED. I bet the AI told them. Let's throw more and faster computers at the problem...

@ulrikagood Jag tänker också på alla kalas som inleds med att födelsedagsbarnet blåser ut sina baciller över tårtan.
Most alarming statistic from the yearly report on Sweden internet usage and behavior is this one:
46% of internet users 16+ years old respond during July-September they’ve woken up during the night to look at their phone. That’s up from 39% in responses January-March. x.com/axbom/status/1…

I mean I have lights and smart locks that work when the internet goes out... 🤷♂️

@erikssonelin Tack! Bra tillägg. Det var inte lätt att veta vilken detaljnivå jag skulle lägga mig på, men nästan samtlig data har ju brasklappar om skillnader i olika segment.
