  1. #PBS and, by extension the #CPB, helped to make me the nerdy #musician - #actor - #technologist I am today, and I could not be more appreciative.

    While it’s difficult to comprehend that the U.S. Congress no longer believes in the amazing, beneficial work of the CPB and PBS, I’m hopeful that, one day, U.S. citizens will again understand the great societal good that comes from commercial-free, public, data-based, educational programming » youtube.com/watch?v=fKy7ljRr0AA

    The technologist Edward #Coristine , a key operative in Elon #Musk 's so-called Department of Government Efficiency who's gone by the name "Big Balls" online, has resigned, the White House tells WIRED.

  5. Data privacy, open source software, decentralization of power, and media ownership are the means to digital self-determinism and democracy in the Information Age. And mainstream platforms offer none of those features. #tech #philosophy #technologist #futurist

  6. It’s been a few years since I first joined #mastodon so doing a new #introduction since many things have changed.

    I am a #technologist, #singer, and #podcaster. I used to work for a large company (when I worked there I may have said tech company, but let’s get real they became a finance driving company a long time ago).

    I like to #swim, #act, and write #apps in #swift and #swiftui

    Quoting US Senator Marco Rubio, Republican, to Fox News:
    "We have things flying over military installations, over military exercise and other places, and we don't know what it is and it isn't ours … and in many cases exhibits attributes of … the kinds of technology we haven't seen before." 16 Jul 2020

  12. Episode 5.3: Solarpunk, Lunarpunk, Crypto, & Web3 with Stephen Reid

    Disclaimer: Neither Christina, Ariel, nor the Solarpunk Presents podcast agree with nor support the use of cryptocurrencies or web3. For sound critiques (as well as explanations) of these technologies, check out the videos Line Goes Up - The Problem With NFTs from @FoldingIdeas (youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_xWvX1n9) and Web3.0: A Libertarian Dystopia from @Munecat (youtube.com/watch?v=u-sNSjS8cq) as well as the website web3isgoinggreat.com/.

    In Season 5 Episode 3 of Solarpunk Presents, Christina chats with transdisciplinary technologist Stephen Reid about the relationship that solarpunk and lunarpunk have to crypto and web3. If lunarpunk is what solarpunk gets up to in the shadows of a moonlit night, that suggests that lunarpunk is inherently more interested in privacy, security, and anonymity, especially from the watchful eye of the state. Further, that means that where solarpunk is interested in renewable energy, sustainability, appropriate technology, and social justice, lunarpunk is interested in the tools, like cryptography, cryptocurrencies, and web3, that safeguard our privacy and anonymity and potentially protect us from tyranny. Do we need lunarpunk’s fixation with using tech to protect our privacy to counterbalance solarpunk’s sunny optimism that everything will all be fine to break through to a better world?

  14. Finding synergy between being a technologist and a word weaver

    In technology, there's a dichotomy between those who are "computer people" and those who don't consider themselves technologically inclined. Among the authors I speak with, this usually leads to their brushing away opportunities or systems for

    Episode Introduction

    Welcome to a peek into the yet-unfolded chapter of our digital future!

    Join us on this Redefining Society episode - a compelling 'GEN AI 2024 Prediction Panel’. If you do not know what to expect from this panel, you are not alone; we didn’t either. This episode is like a canvas where we invite technology enthusiasts, visionaries, and experts to paint their predictions for what Generative AI, simply known as GEN AI, will look like in 2024 and beyond. The goal: unearthing thought-provoking views, sparking meaningful conversations around AI, and above all, bridging the gap between imagination and the potential reality.

    I can, with certainty, affirm that we nailed it! Whatever that means.

    Listen to this panel to get an insightful, riveting, and unique perspective on how AI is shifting gears and changing the landscape of the AI journey, with a little sprinkle of prophecy.

    Hello all, I'm a #technologist in #NorthCarolina. I am #retired from a career in #IT but, I still do some side work from time-to-time. I have always been a huge fan of #FOSS and run several #Linux machines including my #HomeLab media server running #Unraid. I prefer my TVs dumb with a #MiniPC or #SBC attached running #Kodi (#LibreELEC).

    Thalia will be sharing how she built a pair of SA Sign Language gloves which convert sign language into spoken English.
    The gloves can translate dynamic & static gestures with an accuracy of 98.7%. Thalia will be sharing learnings including: assistive technologies need to be informed by those they're meant to assist & why mom shouldn’t sew the gloves.
