  5. Konzept der durchschnittlichen Gesamtgeschwindigkeit von Ivan Illich: Die Fahrzeit #Auto vs. #Fahrrad sieht ganz anders aus, wenn man die (Arbeits-)Zeit berücksichtigt, die man aufwenden muss, um sich das #Verkehrsmittel leisten zu können (Anschaffung, Kraftstoff, Versicherung, Wartung, Garage, ...): Dann ist man mit dem Fahrrad schneller als mit dem Auto!

  7. A Three Year Old’s Instinct to Ask Why

    Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Two or three weeks ago I wrote that I hate Caribana but I also wrote that I have enjoyed the event the past. I also shared a walking route that I could use to get there and back, without using the car. For saying that I hate Caribana I was called a hater, and then that person tried to have a fight, in private via DMs. I said I'm not interested in an argument.

    Unheard

    I considered leaving the group as a result of this interaction. After some thought I thought "Why did person A apologise, and why did person B not ask "Why" instead of throwing accusations? If a three year old toddler had been around it would have asked "Why?" and I could have given an answer. I would have said that it's because of the noise pollution that prevents me from watching TV, opening the window, and sleeping from Wednesday to Sunday Morning at 3am. If that question had been asked the situation would have been resolved.

    In reality my answer was known, because I mentioned that concern when on the train down from St Cergue after a hike. This is not a secret. I have been open about my concern with Paléo and Caribana forgetting about local people and their right to get a good night of sleep.

    Subtext

    In a healthy online community people know the nuances of our character. They know about our passions, our concerns, and our character. By using WhatsApp social networks like GoSocial make us more intimate than we should be, too soon. By intimate I mean that we're in WhatsApp chats with strangers who know nothing about the nuance of our character. It's easy for misunderstandings to occur. It's easy to encounter apathy rather than empathy.

    Not Personal

    My comment was about an aspect of an event. It was not personal. It was an offhand comment that was amplified and blown out of proportion. The irony is that the group is just 25 people or so. In a group that small you expect the community to keep itself in check. In such a small community I expect to be treated as an adult, rather than a misbehaving child.

    Curiousity

    By asking "Why" a three year old shows curiousity. By showing curiousity a three year old potentially shows empathy. By potentially showing empathy a three year old creates a personal connection. By creating a personal connection the three year old helps a discussion move forward.

    And Finally

    If the reflex had been to ask "Why?" rather than to police what I wrote, my sense of community would have remained intact. By asking "why" empathy is shown. If empathy is shown the sense of community remains. Since this incident I have given up on Whatsapp chats.

    WhatsApp is not a social media channel, and WhatsApp chat rooms are not populated by close-knit communities.

  8. A quotation from Thomas Fuller

    If thou wouldest be provident of thy Time; make choice of good Company, and good Books.

    Thomas Fuller (1654-1734) English physician, preacher, aphorist, writer
    Introductio ad Prudentiam, Vol. 2, # 1858 (1727)

  9. Upcoming seminar by @danmcquillan:

    "Drawing on Illich's 'Tools for Conviviality', this talk will argue that an important role for the contemporary university is to resist AI. The university as a space for the pursuit of knowledge and the development of independent thought has long been undermined by neoliberal restructuring and the ambitions of the Ed Tech industry. So-called generative AI has added computational shock and awe to the assault on criticality, both inside and outside higher education, despite the gulf between the rhetoric and the actual capacities of its computational operations. Such is the synergy between AI's dissimulations and emerging political currents that AI will become embedded in all aspects of students' lives at university and afterwards, preempting and foreclosing diverse futures. It's vital to develop alternatives to AI's optimised nihilism and to sustain the joyful knowledge that nothing is inevitable and other worlds are still possible. The talk will ask what Illich has to teach us about an approach to technology that prioritises creativity and autonomy, how we can bolster academic inquiry through technical inquiry, workers' inquiry and struggle inquiry, and whether the future of higher education should enrol lecturers and students in a process of collective decomputing."

  11. An overdue #introduction 👋 (thanks for the prompt when I switched instances @aussocialadmin )

    My name is Scott and I live in Sydney (on Wangal Country in the Inner West). My pronouns are he / him.

    I was born and raised in Canada (Alberta, even), and have lived in some great places around the world (Montreal, NYC, Vermont, rural Kenya). Being a Canadian man of a certain age, yes, I play hockey. Even in Australia.

    I've been very (not extremely) online since the 90s. First it was rec.music.phish, then fark.com, then the Big Tech Socials.

    I strive to behave with compassion and to be more kind than nice. But I also shitpost from time to time because internet.

    I'm interested in lots of things and barely maintain a blurred boundary between personal and professional. See hashtags below or on my profile for a more specific list, but I think it's generally encompassed by the concept of #interbeing which I understand as being coined by Thich Nhat Hanh and drawn from Vietnamese and older Buddhist concepts.
