@ProPublica In Czech Republic voters came with electronic IDs which were officially considered a valid ID for voting, and were IMO arbitrarily, wantonly and frivolously not allowed to vote, citing "overloaded system".
I can imagine a programming of the system like this:
if (voter.political_preference==opposition) {fprintf(stderr,"Error: sorry, system overloaded!\n"); exit -1; }

Do you know what's the difference between Cambodian 3rd world developing country dictatorship and Czech Republic?
In Cambodia I got a dentist in 1 day, in Czechia I had to phone dentists for 2 months before I got one. In case of dermatologist even 4 months.
I feel

The question of definitions, particularly around the “Fediverse” and its relationship with the ActivityPub protocol (AP), has become messy due to the influx of #mainstreaming people, this has sparked a lot of mostly unhelpful debate. Let’s be clear, there is no real “Fediverse” without #AP. Since Mastodon’s shift to AP, the entire Fediverse has been built around this protocol. Trying to separate the two or debating the definition at this point feels a reactionary and more noise than signal.
One thing that these #mainstreaming people find hard to understand, thus except, is that the Fediverse isn’t an organized movement but rather a disorganized space full of mythos and traditions. The only solid thing, for better or worse, is the badly implemented ActivityPub protocol, and even that is a work in progress, and not without issues. Outside of AP, there are meany different protocols and projects that bridge into this a loose, difficult to define neatly #openweb path. Yes, things are changing, and let’s engage with these changes, focusing on fighting over abstract definitions is not very productive.
Now, onto the tricky topic of the “dominance of white, techno-libertarian guys” in the space. While it’s an issue worth acknowledging, it’s not practically very central, it’s a part of the messy path. The Fediverse is built on #4opens and #DIY principles. It is best to ignore if you can or tolerate the presence of techno-libertarian individuals, as these people are largely noise rather than core to the project. The real barriers to entry are basic technical skills and community-building. This space is actually perfect for the #fluffy side of any activist movement, including a potential #BPP (Black Panther Party) reboot that needs to happen.
Then there’s the idea of “protocol supremacists” using ActivityPub to reinforce their dominance. Yes, you can smell a bit of this, but it’s not actually important or widespread as some people push. The Fediverse was built with almost no money and very little power, so there’s not much for people to hold onto in terms of control. The gatekeeping you see is real from a few players, but they’re not too bad (so far). However, you’re right that things are likely to change as more institutional power and #NGO types enter the space.
Our internal fixations on insider language like “Eternal September” and “Eternal November” is just this, insider language that’s not particularly useful for most people. The focus remains on the core issues of community-building and the challenges of maintaining the decentralized, #openweb ethos in the face of outside pressures.
As for the racism and toxicity that exists, in huge amounts in the #dotcons and in some corners of the Fediverse, the key is this: Don’t go looking for the worst people, and if they find you, block them quickly. The community is built on #4opens and #DIY principles, meaning you have control over community spaces. Building a supportive network takes time, but once established, you can block out the toxicity effectively. It’s a chicken-and-egg problem—build your community first, then deal with the bad actors as they come.
Finally, let’s talk about the lack of digital drugs—those addictive elements you find on #dotcons like Facebook or Twitter. The Fediverse doesn’t have these hooks, so getting people to stay when things turn messy is harder than you might expect. This is why community-building is so crucial. Activist communities need to focus on strong #4opens process and then support networks and positive action based paths to create spaces people want to stay in, despite the inevitable challenges.
The #Fediverse is messy, yes. But within that mess, there’s a lot of potential. It’s up to us to cultivate it.

CW: Long Read / Rant Warning A response regarding the exhausting narrative that AI is dumbing us down and about to replace us...
https://mastodon.social/@h4ckernews/116556568722213579
https://www.seangoedecke.com/software-engineering-may-no-longer-be-a-lifetime-career/
My fuc..... response.
Firstly, comparing the arduousness of manual labor to that of intellectual work makes no sense. I can understand the overlap in principle, but not in consequence. For a start, the secondary sector is much more Taylorized (Fordized if you want), then the living conditions are much lower. And finally, the activity is much more arduous for the body and the mind than in the tertiary or quaternary sector (software eng.).
Talking about the loss of theoretical and practical knowledge regarding the use of AI or not is also something I would nuance. Yes, he or she who no longer codes loses in skills, but not so much in knowledge. Reflexes change, review management changes. The coordination of a project changes. But to go from there to saying that the person who no longer codes loses in knowledge is a shortcut which, in addition to being limiting, is fallacious. The engineer who no longer codes has issues with reflexes. In no case issues with understanding the code. And that is where I would put a nuance. The eng. always knows where to look for information, build their project, structure it.
From a practical point of view, they will write fewer lines, but in exchange, they will allow for better planning. They will certainly be less up to date on the use of a function, but they will be able to explain how the function must be encapsulated, and everything relating to micro-services or monoliths. In no way should AI make a decision. If you let it do so, you lose everything and gain an incommensurable technical debt.
Defend yourselves !!!! Explain to the paper-pushers that their AI is not going to succeed in explaining why such a technology is better for their project. The engineer or the architect will take everything into account, from OOP to the ultimate spec lost in the very depths of the JAVA doc regarding the Floating-Point Remainder Operator and why it is important. Calculate the cost of a bad operator choice in 5 years and tell your paper-pusher: "Do you still want the AI to manage your project in OCaml?"AI is useful, I am not saying the contrary, but there is clearly a fundamental difference between a tool that makes decisions that have consequences and a secondary sector worker who uses an excavator instead of a shovel... (in both cases, he works in the cold, his pay is the same, but he kills his back less). He remains the master of his actions... Whereas the AI... there is a fabulation of domination and power and a dramatic misunderstanding. Who is responsible for the choice? The AI will never substitute itself for the responsible person (it's not me Madam Judge, it's gpt 8 that didn't pay attention that passwords must be hashed in Argon2 and not in SHA-1... it was in its .md though...)
So no, software engineers and architects will not be replaced, unless the statistical paper-pushers who calculate in lines of code spawned per hour assume the service interruptions, the maintenance and production release costs.
Today, everyone swears only by Claude Code and other "magical" crayfish supposed to do "everything" in our place. The result? They generate with pleasure all the bullshit that maintainers are desperately trying to protect themselves from: obese and incomprehensible PRs, impossible to reproduce bug reports, and feature additions that outright break the API because the tool mixes up terminologies without understanding the business domain of the project. I've seen AI proposals that didn't even respect the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)... the basics!
So yes, this machine swallows docs by the kilometer. It spits out text with an incredible and fascinating aplomb (like the sexist boss who wants to make believe he knows your job). But it is plausible, never exact. And that is the whole difference with an eng.: instead of coding blindly, the human analyzes the system, the dependencies, the architecture, the production structure... the specificities... then finally decides, and makes the architectural decision, before delegating to the AI the drafting of the Slack message to explain to the team why we are not going to import such a bloated library just for the three features we need.Pisses me off in the end :D

🎉 We’re back! After a refreshing summer break, Her Maths Story is returning with more powerful and personal insights into the lives of women in mathematics.
In the first half of 2025, we’ve shared stories of women applying maths in deeply meaningful ways — across data science, biology, quantum information, education, and the arts. Their paths have taken them through academia and industry, from poetry to policymaking, and across continents.
💫 Whether overcoming stereotypes, crossing disciplinary boundaries, or redefining what a mathematician looks like, each story reveals the creativity, resilience, and individuality behind mathematical work.
🌐 Together, they remind us that mathematics is not only technical — it’s human, global, and present in places we might not expect.📢 What’s next?
We’ve got more inspiring stories ahead — including how maths helps us understand change in all its forms, and how creative expression can bring mathematical stories to life. ✨
Stay tuned — there’s much more to come!#HerMathsStory #WomenInMaths #MathsInTheWorld #WomenInSTEM #STEMStories #InspiringWomen
