The Global Liveability Index 2023, from Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU), is available now. It ranks the cities that have the best and worst living conditions and quality of life around the world. EIU’s liveability index quantifies the challenges presented to an individual’s lifestyle and standard of living in 173 cities worldwide. The index measures cities on five broad indicators — stability, culture and environment, healthcare, education and infrastructure. The highest score a city can get is 100.
Bengaluru (Bangalore) secured 148th spot with a score of 58.7. Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Ahmadabad have slightly better scores.
I believe Bengaluru (Bangalore) has the competence and the bandwidth to rank much better. All that is required in political will. If somebody has lived in Bengaluru even for few weeks, the first obvious expectation for improvement will be better traffic management, roads, public transport and cleaner city.

Protect Civilians
I cannot say it better than what Sari Bashi, Program Director at Human Rights Watch says here.You have to protect civilians, you have to protect the people who have nothing to do with fighting. That’s the principle that children can understand. When I tell my daughter, I know your brother hit you but doesn’t mean you can hit him back. I think we can have a very simple message to the Israeli government. I know Hamas committed unspeakable war crimes against Israeli civilians. That doesn’t mean you can commit war crimes against Palestinian civilians.

Ostrich Parasitic Syndrome (OPS) is an interesting term coined by Professor Gad Saad. It refers to a type of human mind virus that causes a person to reject realities that are otherwise as clear as gravity. The term is derived from the behavior of an ostrich, which is believed to bury its head in the sand to avoid reality. OPS takes this concept a step further, leading to the complete rejection of reality.
People suffering from OPS do not believe their lying eyes and construct an alternate reality known as unicornia. In this world, science, reason, rules of causality, evidentiary thresholds, a near-infinite amount of data, data analytic procedures, inferential statistics, the epistemological rules inherent to the scientific method, rules of logic, historical patterns, daily patterns, and common sense are all rejected.

Signal Messenger and Phone Number
I appreciate Meredith Whittaker’s views on surveillance, privacy, security and encryption.
In the same context of privacy, I keep wondering about the rationale behind Signal Messenger to depend only on phone number or mobile number as its digital identity. Why does Signal Messenger not provide multiple alphanumeric user identities internally mapped to the phone number and enable users to only share the user id without disclosing the phone number? It would be better if Signal Messenger can discard usage of phone number.

One good example is Notesnook which is a nice product and worth using. I broadly understand that if a user opts for pro version and then gets downgraded to basic (free) tier due to non-payment, existing data that is specific for pro version (e.g. attachments, images, full page and selection based clips, tags etc.), in Notesnook, will be retained and made accessible to the user. I still do not gave clarity whether existing data in private vault is retained and made accessible. Also, what will happen to recurring reminders of Notesnook pro, after getting downgraded to basic (free), is also not clear to me.
The massive 80% discount to Indian customers is also scary to me. I guess that the 80% discount is only for the first year. What can happen to the pricing during subsequent years?

Convincing a person through facts, logical argument and reasoning and the role of Whatsapp University
[I am sharing below an updated version of my previous post.]
These days it is increasingly challenging to logically argue with a person and drive home a message based on facts and data in my neighborhood and society in Bengaluru, India though all of them are well educated. Many have extended international exposure. All of us now have our own preferred channels of information, and unless one belongs to those channels, they will most likely be unconvincing to the listener. In my opinion some of the main reasons behind this mindset are the following.
- It is difficult to change someone’s opinion or belief by using facts and logical arguments if that person did not arrive at their opinion through a process of reasoning and critical thinking. In other words, if someone has formed their opinion based on emotions or other non-rational factors, it can be difficult to change their mind using logical arguments alone.
- People don’t turn away from reasoning because they are just disinterested, they turn away because their survival literally depends on not looking.
- It is difficult to get a person to understand something when their financial income depends on not understanding it.
I shared my local experience. The same may be true for similar societies in rest of India and few other countries.
In this context the article “Do Facts Matter” is relevant. As stated in the article, facts matter when they support our beliefs and lead to conclusions we like. Information processing by our minds is influenced by goals, emotions, preexisting beliefs and culture. Our inferences will not change just based on raw facts.
One good example of such information channels are WhatsApp Groups in India. A recent study by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism at the University of Oxford suggests that the majority of Indian citizens trust the information they receive on WhatsApp.
What can change our informed decision making process? From my personal experience I see that facts or apparent facts driven by extreme external circumstances (e.g. business, finance etc.) and deep rooted emotional triggers can challenge our preexisting beliefs and modify our information channels. It seems that changing our bias and worldview doesn’t necessarily mean changing our belief about something.
We will always continue to believe what we think is right for us. We will keep tweaking and tuning our information channels and sources to suit our needs and beliefs.
As aptly mentioned here, the goal is not to change our belief but to create space for other people to have different perspectives. It is essential that we listen actively, ask questions respectfully, acknowledge differences without judgment or blame, and seek common ground wherever possible.

Every time I see this area, I wonder that this may be a haven for builders in Bengaluru. During last one decade more buildings have got added.
The Harohalli Lake is still beautiful. A lot of migratory birds flock during the winter.
The hillocks at the horizon are near Nandi Hills.

IIITB has developed Modular Open-Source Identity Platform (MOSIP) to provide Aadhaar-like digital identities for nine countries. Citizens of Philippines, Morocco, Sri Lanka, Uganda, Ethiopia, Republic of Guinea, Sierra Leone, Burkina Faso and Togolese Republic will enroll on the platform.
The source code is available in Github under Mozilla Public License 2.0.
Around 70 million citizens in Philippines (80% of the population) have enrolled themselves on their national digital identity programme rolled out by Modular Open-Source Identity Platform (MOSIP), a digital identity platform developed by a team at the International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore (IIITB).
Upon the request of World Bank to initiate research and development, the project provides digital identities similar to Aadhaar to underdeveloped and developing countries. So far, 1.6 million lines of codes have been developed and used by countries, free of cost.

Fediverse is here to stay on its own merit and not as an alternative
If one occupies a privileged position in the attention economy, she/he/they won’t see Mastodon and other Fediverse platforms as a viable alternative to Twitter or Facebook or Instagram or even WhatsApp. I have learnt this from my personal experience while requesting others to have a presence in Fediverse. They could not afford to forego the significant direct and indirect benefits as social media influencers irrespective of their political and social preferences. For some, it is also the only source of their livelihood.
It does not matter that the attention economy is unlikely to be threatened by Fediverse in near future. Even otherwise, this attention economy is too big to fail. Since I live in India, I know that Fediverse has little or no impact in India.
Also, it may not be prudent to see attention economy is isolation. Attention economy and surveillance economy (target, track, and profile users in order to manipulate their behavior and gain further access to their data) aptly complement each other. The combination is lethal and deeply pervasive, at least, in Indian psyche till now.
However, I am confident that Fediverse will retain its own identity and continue to grow organically at its own pace.

Similar to Iceland, there are several other countries where women recently have gone on strike to fight for gender equality.
(1) In Argentina, women went on strike in 2019 to protest violence against women.
(2) In Poland, women went on strike in 2016 to protest an abortion ban.
(3) In Spain, women went on strike in 2018 to demand recognition of their labor and an end to gender-based violence.
(4) In Belgium, women went on strike in 2019 to demand equal pay and an end to gender-based discrimination.
(5) In France, women went on strike in 2019 to demand equal pay and an end to gender-based violence.
(6) In Italy, women went on strike in 2019 to protest the government’s failure to address gender-based violence.
(7) In Mexico, women went on strike in 2019 to protest gender-based violence and inequality.
(8) In Chile, women went on strike in 2019 to protest gender-based violence and inequality.
Also history shows that sex strikes are a surprisingly effective strategy for political change.
