New on Bluesky 👋

But used to hang out on Twitter while it was still fun. Joined here to see if any of the good people I followed in those days are still around in this habitat. And perhaps meet some new ones.

In difficult times it helps to know there are still good people everywhere. 🤗

Supervigtigt emne, som sagtens kan bære et afsnit mere. Det er i den grad et ubehageligt tiltag og når man tænker på, hvor oprørte man var i EU, også i politiske kredse, da Edward Snowden lavede sine afsløringer om masseovervågning, så er det skræmmende at se, at vi nu er her. 😡
Med fare for at det stikker af i ren rant fra Klaus' side, vover vi os ud i at løfte en lille flig af et stort problem for demokratiet, i håbet om at du, og ikke de forkerte, lytter med. Episode 104 handler om overvågning.

Hov… var det et klik på linjen?

Hey, guys. Guess what we’re not talking about any more.

Love this! 😍😭
I love this so much and I am absolutely tearing up about it. The gentleness and plainness of this, the way he just lets her be her (and she seems so damn lovely, who wouldn’t?), the generosity.

It isn’t going to solve the world’s problems, but this kind of humanity is a hell of a start.

Energy?

"Energy"?

Are you fucking kidding me?
"Kennedy questioned the effectiveness of the vaccines…

'You can't control the amount of energy that everybody is getting," he said. "When you give a vaccine, you want to know exactly how much energy is because some people react very, very badly and can get very, very badly injured.'"

Here’s a case where it would make sense to replace the phrase “Artificial Intelligence” with “not-very-well-understood computer programs prone to unpredictable errors.”

Honest and useful startup advice.

Building and running your own business can be very satisfying, but not necessarily mythological. There are lessons to be learned and I definitely recognise the myths that @lisaforte.bsky.social is debunking here. Good read! 👇

Thank you, @robinince.bsky.social 🙏
Hey people with platforms , they are starting to take the trans positive books out of the libraries. Now is the time to stand up or just accept that you don’t care - and here is to the millionaire comedians who have helped oil the wheels of hatred

But of course the Excel sheet shows that it is a great idea! 🙄
Yet more companies laying off employees not because AI is replacing them, but because they need more money to fund their AI. I can't remember the last time I saw sunk cost fallacy at this scale.

This post ought to go viral. Not because it is mine - obviously 😉 - but because the topic is disinformation.

The thing is - you should actually watch the talk before sharing it. Just to verify. And because it is good! And then share it.
