A periodic reminder that Tech Can't Fix People zazzle.com/tech_cant_fix_peo…
קום והתהלך בארץ
בתרמיל או עם תיקים.
וודאי תפגוש בדרך
שוב את ארץ פלסטין.
יחבקו אותך דרכיה
של הארץ הטובה,
היא תקרא אותך אליה
כמו אל ערש אהבה.

Good advice from @rabbijilljacobs in @jdforward on what we in the US can do to counter the threats to Israeli democracy and secular culture: "stop being afraid of being too 'political' and start putting our money where our values are." forward.com/opinion/538052/i…
.@Haaretz spells it out in case it wasn't clear enough: "Netanyahu is the best gift our enemies could ask for. He is accomplishing what Nasser, Arafat, Saddam Hussein and two Assads couldn't." haaretz.co.il/digital/daily/…
Now I understand the "1870" pin I saw in the audience of #SOTU
Tonight, we're thinking of Henry Truman & the countless lives we've lost since #1870. Over 150 years since we secured the right to vote & we still haven’t conquered the pattern of being killed by those tasked with "protecting and serving" us. yhoo.it/3liqQqD
If "better" means "still not reliably true, but more convincing ," then I think it's still very risky semafor.com/article/02/01/20…
On #VR @ReedAlbergotti asks if lack of demand is a consumer interest or hardware problem. I remember the exact same question from the mid-1990s. Maybe there's just a natural limit to the number of people who really want to use it semafor.com/newsletter/02/01…

Lots of truth here from @doctorow even if I don't agree that the challenge of leaving Facebook is just like the challenge of leaving Anatevka because of pogroms

To my fellow ex-#Nokia people - some "burning platform" energy here? But more desperate and less competent. Empathizing with Twitter employees watching as their company is being driven off a cliff. cnbc.com/2022/11/16/elon-mus…
Empathizing with the #Twitter engineers left to maintain the system under increasing pressure technologyreview.com/2022/11…

My only thought on the #TwitterTakeover: Tech Can't Fix People zazzle.com/tech_cant_fix_peo…
"אסור לוותר על השאיפה להפוך את ישראל למקום ראוי, הוגן והגון לכלל תושביה, בלא הבדל דת, גזע ומין, כפי שהבטיחה מגילת העצמאות. ייתכן שיעבור זמן רב עד שהתהליך הזה יבשיל, אך לשמאל חפץ חיים זוהי האפשרות היחידה. אין פתרונות קסם."

If you favor secular democracy in Israel (like I do), we can learn from our friends from Iran, Turkey, Hungary and others: love and support the people in those countries working for positive change forward.com/opinion/523500/a…
Now holding my breath for the Israeli elections on Nov. 1 and the US midterms #vote #בחירות2022

Exciting program from a fine organization!
We’re thrilled to launch the first event of our three-year global program #DisarmingDisinformation. Journalists fighting mis/disinformation across the Americas will get to learn new strategies + tools from leading #disinfo specialists. icfj.org/news/are-you-journa… (1/4)
Worth reading for anyone interested in perspective on the "metaverse" and the 30 or so years of development and research available for Meta and others to learn from newsletters.theatlantic.com/…
