  1. "Better a known rival than an unpredictable friend." - Futurist Jim Carroll

    There's a lot of talk online about what happens when partnerships become unstable.

    When one side of a partnership slides over the abyss of rationality, into a mindset of madness.

    When what was once reliable becomes volatile, when the predictable becomes uncertain, and the rational, irrational.

    And the lesson is that you have to pick your partners carefully.

    Strategically.

    Wisely.

    With caution.

    With due diligence.

    With both eyes wide open and elbows up.

    You'll never move forward if you keep trying to rely on a relationship that has become untenable.

    Partnership involves predictable, rational action.

    And when that disappears, so should the reliance on the partnership - because it becomes time to form new ones.

    Those partnerships might involve choices that, in an old world, might not have made sense but, in a new world, demand attention.

    That's simply reality!

    Futurist Jim Carroll often speaks about the importance of organizations to develop the capability for 'fast partnerships.' He realizes it now applies to nations, too.

  2. The true words of Thomas

    The fully legible literal translation of Thomas is now available, #OpenAccess, via

    academia.edu/42110001

    Outside? Eye
    Question? Make cease
    Vessel? Ear
    Force? Forearm
    Visitors? Strangers
    Leaven? Colostrum

    And so on; Thomas has now been unburied again and I advise everyone to discard any and all other translations as they all (save for Koepke's) are hopelessly corrupt in all possible ways

  3. @airwhale @rysiek @atomicpoet @mike @mmasnick ...while adding some #transparency and #duediligence obligations for the biggest social media operators out there.

    That does not mean we should not regulate the terrible #TrackingAds-driven business model that creates a lot of the commercial incentives for social media platforms to harm users and societies. The #DSA is too weak on this front unfortunately. [2/2]
