Worked in academia for a while, mostly on interference mitigation in open communication systems. Now it's time for some more hands-on action. Main account on ActivityPub/Mastodon:
What’s the best way to ensure resiliency of the open web? ‘build something that people love so much that they would revolt if it ever went away’ is IMO a very coherent theory of change, thanks @dholms.at for pointing it out. #dwebcamp was magic, I’m still processing. inter communal spirit ❤️
'Elections can be predicted by the level of funding' Soon we'll see if the outcome of 'the most expensive primary campaign in US history' will corroborate that well established thesis. I think I'm ready to bet against it 😬 www.politico.com/news/2026/05...
dayum, I lost count how often I've watched en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merchan... looks like I have some kind of science crush on @naomioreskes.bsky.social 😅
Where can I bet on the #atmosphere #atproto #regulatory #policy discussion picking up momentum soon? Key stakeholders are about to grasp a consequence of functional separation: Only DID:PLC directory operators can execute an effective ‘network-wide ban’ App view operators can ‘unban’ anything.
‘The Whole Directory’ Feels like a big step in post-platform history to me. Like a ‘toothpaste is out of the tube’ moment, with respect to this idea: A world without fundamental dependence on one ‘identity provider’ is possible. #atmosphereconf

Not sure if the ‘Lack of Patriotism’ and ‘Enemy Within’ narrative will work in this context. Goering claimed that it always does: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustave... Historically, we know that even zen priests can be whipped up like that, but what about those that are chronically dopamine depleted?
‘Bluesky Is Dying’ seems to contradict current stats. It’s just stagnating, eagerly awaiting the next lesson on ‘the dire consequences of an untreated god complex’ by en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher... bluefacts.app/bluesky-user...
#Serbia is showing us the way: The core of the current protest movement has been built by committed students and professors, across all disciplines. They are calling for: ‘International Academic Solidarity’ Let’s build these networks ASAP! Historical reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkele...
