  1. @corollule @lemoisphoto il y a des détails qui ne trompent pas: ce n’est pas ce qu’on appelle une capture d’écran mais bien une photo d’écran #nuance

  2. Becoming increasingly convinced that my swiping keyboard on mobile is getting less and less accurate, and increasingly paranoid that I'm actually just getting more and more of a grumpy old man. #nuance

  3. @slesa @DGBNiedersachsen nein, gerade die mit Robert, Annalena und Ricarda, ausgetreten sind die meines Wissens nicht. Auch mit Cem. Niemand von denen ist nur gut oder böse. Die Welt ist bunt und nicht pur schwarz oder weiß. #nuance

    > One of my biggest lightbulb moments in systems theory class was realizing that even humans who may never directly interact within the scope of your design are very much still stakeholders

    Exactly, very true. It is funny.. a couple years ago and inspired by @aral tooting about it, I started practicing avoidance of the word "user".

    This now comes very natural to me, to the extent that so many uses of the word really poke me in the eye with how artificial, unnatural, distancing, and yes.. even inhumane they are.

    #CodingIsSocial #people! We "social code the social code" of #society.

    "User" is a #tech word, same as "Reverse proxy" or "Factory class". And its a leaky #abstraction that serves to lose all #nuance, and is best avoided. Furthermore it implies an #ownership relationship between devs and their captivated audience, that doesn't, shouldn't exist.

    I'm behind schedule on a #ParadoxOfEmergence blogpost, may address this.. discuss.coding.social/t/sx-sus

    Ditch use of #user! ✊

  9. Dans un monde de certitudes rapides… la nuance est un refuge sacré.

    Lire, réfléchir, questionner…
    C’est résister à la simplification du monde.

    Le livre nous invite à ralentir, à approfondir, à ressentir autrement.

    📖 Et vous, quel texte vous a récemment transformé ?

    « Le livre (…) constitue pour la nuance le plus sûr des refuges. » — Jean Birnbaum

  11. Sympathy vs. Empathy

    For some maybe it's only semantics, and others may not care about either or know the difference.

    But in #psychotherapy and human relationships, there is a distinction.

    Anyway, this is from a colleague/friend (from Russia) who travels the world (on a Genius grant) as performer and director of the International Playback Theater

    I can't translate her cartoon; Maybe someone can?

  16. Things I Never Thought I’d Tolerate

    What would younger you be shocked you tolerate today? I used to have standards. Actual ones. Lines you didn’t cross unless you wanted consequences. Younger me would be absolutely floored by what I tolerate now. Not because I got wiser. Because the world got louder, dumber, and weirdly proud of it. I put up with stupid people. Daily. Loudly. People who say things that make you wonder how they successfully put on pants this morning. Opinions with no facts. Confidence with no competence. […]

  17. @vasilis @Kilian @adrian Ome Paul houdt het voor vandaag even op: 'meer nuance, beter humeur'. 't Weer is grijs, het noodweer stelt teleur en dan zijn er ook nog de wereldgebeurtenissen. Deze wereld hebt meer nuancies en meer pretjes nodig.

  23. I complain a lot about software here, but I wanted to shout out the # WhisperTyping team for building something BEAUTIFUL,

    whispertyping.com/

    .. I have reluctantly used #Dragon #Nuance for years, and it's just terrible software that isn't going to get better, .. Whisper have built something beautiful that just works. Easy install, fast, highly accurate. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the Dragon product, but honestly that's a feature, not a bug, .. Dragon seems to destabilize every machine I've ever installed it on.

  24. Plus généralement, le problème est qu’à force de ramener presque chaque débat à la séquence 1933-1945, nous avons fait de l’histoire nazie une sorte d’unité de mesure universelle. Tout est fait pour électriser les débats, conduire à la #guerreCulturelle et donner des munitions à l’ #extrêmeDroite.

    Les marchés de #Noël, eux, ne risquent rien. Ils traverseront cette polémique sans dommage, comme en témoignent les millions de visiteurs qui affluent chaque année. Ce qui vacille en revanche, c’est notre capacité collective à éviter l’ #anachronisme et à accepter la #nuance.

  25. “Liberation” is not achieved through simplistic solutions or quick fixes; it thrives in #nuance and the willingness to persist through discomfort.

    In other words, #EmbraceTheSuck because #WordsMeanThings.

  30. SAVOIR DIRE "JE NE SAIS PAS" - MÉTA SHORT (capsule)

    Pourquoi nos désaccords tournent-ils parfois au règlement de comptes ? Comment privilégier la #nuance, pour un #débat d'idées plus constructif ?👇

  31. Remember when TWTR was where #nuance went to die 140 characters under ground?

    Most people live under a cemetery now.

  32. …you get to the destination without making the #journey, the conclusion without the #reasoning, the thesis without the #nuance.

  33. If we don't want to say and do horrible things accidentally, reading comprehension is very important.

    Especially on the Internet, where we could have nuance...

    ...if we ever chose to make any space whatsoever for it.

  34. Ah yes, humanity's favorite pastime: blaming all their woes on the rise of smartphones 📱. Clearly, every global issue from 2007 onward can be chalked up to our dopamine-draining pocket bricks. Because why bother with nuance when you can just point at technology and shout "Witch!" 🤪🔮.

  35. #Nuance: I love #Radiohead but Yorke has a reputation for being an egotist. He clearly doesn't take criticism well ergo dug his heels in instead of taking a breath & accepting he'd made a mistake

  36. A quotation from Eric Hoffer

    Absolute power is partial to simplicity. It wants simple problems, simple solutions, simple definitions. It sees in complication a product of weakness — the torturous path compromise must follow.

    Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
    Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 88 (1955)
