@DmMacniel @loaExMachina Yes, and her name is Xue.

@MicroWave Sometimes I go off topic. Probably not the best thing for a manifesto blog. Point taken. astoundingteam.com/wordpress/a…

@MicroWave Stuff like this is why I “invented” #anagorism (anti-market anarcho-socialism).

In a #market economy, one has to market oneself.

Market economies grade on confidence, definitely at the expense of competence.

@Rozauhtuno A modern website or mobile app is very intentionally designed to transmit signal (direct observations of behavior, and other actionable data) in one direction and noise (basically bloat) in the other. To forego any monetization opportunity is to leave money on the table, and of course that is a literal sin against the principal-agent principle. If we wanted search to be a utility, content to be a library, communication to be person-to-person, or platforms to come without vendor lock-in, we should have left the Internet in mostly academic hands, as it was in the early 1990s.

@tokyo @Bebo Occasionally media will report on the problem of aggressive monetization, but they will not blaze a trail in a new direction because that would neutralize the business model.

The slate star codex effect is real.

I don’t reddit anymore but one who occasionally showed up on /r/BreadTube was “The Hated One,” seems infrequent (or maybe has gone behind a paywall, not sure). astoundingteam.com/wordpress/2…

@theinspectorst The real tragedy is that the business sector will probably beat the free software movement to achieving “A” “I” capability.
