  3. Being #kind, #generous and #thoughtful will not #change anything. You want real #results: you have to become #mean, #selfish and #ruthless. Just like the #organizations of the govt. Talking to the citizens. You have to #fight #fire with fire. That's just one man's #opinion.

  6. Two legal scholars assert that AI, by its very design, undermines democratic institutions, even when used properly.
    They highlight three corrosive "affordances":
    • atrophy of expertise,
    • moral decisions short-circuited,
    • social isolation, which undermines dissent and agency.

  8. Show me a business or a school or a church that is preoccupied with its customers or clients, determined to do its best for them and not just to survive for the sake of surviving, and I'll bet you that they don't have time for too many committees, for forms, for politicking or for nitpicking about mistakes. Those are the organizations which are fun to be in, which give you room to be yourself, to express yourself, to grow.

  10. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/j. "A set of sweeping #policy changes unveiled by the #WhiteHouse would leave #officials appointed by Donald #Trump vetting every #public #grant issued to #universities & #nongovernmental #organizations on the basis of their fidelity to 'American values', as defined by the #president, triggering widespread concern." How is #scientific #research supposed to conform to "American values"? And why should Trump be the only person defining them?

  13. A quotation from Bertrand Russell

    In our own day […] there has been too much of a tendency towards authority, and too little care for the preservation of initiative. Men in control of vast organisations have tended to be too abstract in their outlook, to forget what actual human beings are like, and to try to fit men to systems rather than systems to men.

    Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
    Lecture (1949-01-30), “Individual and Social Ethics,” Reith Lecture, “Authority and the Individual” No. 6, BBC Radio

  15. In #madisonwi these introduced and invasive plants are considered ‘restricted’ by the Department of Natural Resources.

    Therefore, conservation #organizations may be incentivized to remove them and inhibit research.

    I’ve also notified the city that these shrubs surround large piles of rocks. Therefore, their removal without gradual replacement of native species could alter geological #risks such as erosion and soil collapse due to Karst topology.

    Questions remain…
