  1. Ah yes, CES 2026: where a $14M robot can now bring you a soda—slowly, loudly, and after a firmware update. But sure, let’s call it 'physical AI' and not 'a Roomba with ambition.' 🤖🥤 #CES2026 #TechOptimism

  2. 🔍 Ah, the sweet irony of a tech optimist turning sour on the internet 🍋. With a career built on code and hope, Mr. Reitz finally discovers his epiphany: the very net he helped weave is now a tangled mess of doom. Bravo, Captain Obvious, on your groundbreaking realization that the internet is more twisted than a pretzel! 🥨🚀

  7. 🌊✨ A massive thank you to @jerry and his fantastic blue-ocean.social server for introducing me to Bluesky! I've created a new account: @debby.blue-ocean.social 🚀💙

    With a decentralized server, I'm excited to see how I can maintain my privacy while enjoying all the benefits Bluesky has to offer 🌐🔒. I'll be sure to keep you all updated on my journey and share my thoughts on this Twitter alternative!

    The platform's emphasis on user autonomy is a breath of fresh air, and while it seems to have less open-source technology themes than Mastodon, the overall vibe is incredibly refreshing 🌈! I really appreciate the tech-nerdiness in the Fediverse, but working in tech, I think it's essential to keep in touch with people without programming knowledge to stay connected to the broader society 😅.

    At first glance, Bluesky feels like the old Twitter but with a much more positive twist.

    Here's to new beginnings and the future of decentralized social media! 🙌💬

  12. Happy birthday to ARPANET, the forerunner of the modern internet! 53 years ago, the first message was sent over this pioneering network, paving the way for a world of interconnection and innovation.

    As a tech enthusiast, I am constantly amazed by the ways the internet has transformed our lives, allowing us to communicate, learn and share ideas across boundaries and borders. From social media to e-commerce, from telemedicine to remote work, the internet has become an essential part of our daily routines, enabling us to connect with others and access a wealth of information at our fingertips.

  13. "Tech Zionism" brought to you by Balaji is the latest creepy libertarian idea from those pushing the Network State as a modern version of the ideas of people like Ayn Rand.

    newrepublic.com/article/180487

    @404mediaco please keep an eye on these creeps. The tie ins to tech companies and their leaders/financiers is troubling. Makes you wonder what you supporting when you use some products and services. Not to mention who has access to your data.

  14. Finally, someone - in this case Matthew Iglesias, has taken on the #TechBro “technology optimists” who naively believe that we can ‘tech’, ‘build’, and ‘birth’ out way out of our current problem spaces. They’re wrong and it’s rubbish of course. Impulsive, immature naïveté by folks who SHOULD know better. This kind of insane, happy optimism in the face of overpopulation, climate change, a falling birthrate, war and polarization is just arrogant folly. They argue all technology is inherently good, uh-huh. Here’s Iglesia’s worthy takedown slowboring.com?utm_source=navb #technolgy #TechnologyOptimism #TechOptimism #Naivete #SiliconValley

  15. ugh.

    went down a rabbit-hole about Marc Andreesen that took a detour into Jeffrey Epstein's MIT bribe-money, his rape ranch in New Mexico, and his dreams of a bespoke master race with his DNA. stories of bespoke billionaire futures brought me back to Andreessen and this 2014 effort to peddle his transhuman eugenics bullshit before he called it #techOptimism

  16. another from 2019... and i wasn't wrong:

    "the next few years are gonna be like 1984, but the party are the Animal Farm inbred Republican pigs aided by cartoonishly evil silicon valley goons, all licking at the taint of an ex-Soviet president and his soul-mate, an al-Saud heir Bond villain... and they're all pedophiles

  17. from 2020:

    Gates’ lifelong obsession is population control. his brand of fascism is called #technolibertarianism.

    Silicon Valley technolibertarians are, “#apartheid, but make it tech”.

    that's why they’re obsessed with AI #surveillance, genetics, #eugenics, GMOs, Mars (for us not them).

  28. Heart transplants are nothing short of a miracle of medicine. But at the same time, it requires someone to lose their life for doctors to save a life. We're literally trading lives. Also, there are just not enough hearts to go around, especially for kids with heart problems.

    Enter Dr. Doris Taylor, who is building hearts from scratch, using stem cells. allevi3d.com/building-a-heart-

    Now, that's a reason for #techoptimism

  29. "We can mitigate extant inequalities by tweaking the tech we have, if we would only choose to do so. Instead, we wax poetic about, and spend gazillions on, trying to achieve the Singularity." - @arstechnica

  30. Here's a bit of #techoptimism for your hump day: AI detected breast cancer in scans 4 years (!) before it developed. This can help doctors identify areas that are high risk, but might otherwise go unnoticed. #healthtech

  31. Wired 1.01 should have been next to the complete set of Mondo2000 but it's gone. What I did find was Wired 6.01 - The 5th Anniversary edition - "CHANGE IS GOOD" containing a message from the Second World, "Art & Corruption Bruce Sterling in St Petersburg on what's really going on in Russia".

    Also Wired - Mind Grenades - Manifesto From The Future. A 96 special edition.

  32. Today’s bit of #techoptimism: While 2022 saw many unfortunate layoffs in the #Tech sector, job growth in funded tech startups in #Africa was styring, and the number of new jobs created nearly doubled from 2021, and the sector bringing in more than USD 3bn in investments. Africa’s tech sector is bringing both jobs and innovations to the continent. disrupt-africa.com/2023/02/24/

  33. This week's #techoptimism is a bit meta (not Meta, meta): FastCompany's Jared Newman disspells rumours that Mastodon has peaked after it's massive increases in users following the Twitter meltdown recently. fastcompany.com/90834897/no-ma

  34. It's Friday the 13th, so let's have a second bit of #techoptimism today: A Houston company is currently building a two-story, three bedroom house, all 3D printed! The printer weighs a whopping 12 tons, and is taking #3Dprinting to new heights (pun intended). nasdaq.com/articles/3d-printin

  35. Today's bit of #techoptimism: The World's foremost electronics tradeshow, Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is currently underway in Las Vegas, and Fast Company notes that an unusual amount of the tech present there is either entirely focused on green tech, or have a green slant. From electric boats and excevators to more energy concious versions of standard tech. And more green tech means lower energy consumption worldwide. fastcompany.com/90834105/ces-2

  36. This week's bit of #techoptimism is all about power. Or rather, batteries. While the standard battery of choice today, from cell phones to EVs, are lithium-ion batteries, 2023 is poised to see a slew of new technologies, each with their own advantages. This can result in a more stable and green power grid, more range on EVs, and cheaper, greener tech. technologyreview.com/2023/01/0*

  37. As for this week's (or rather, last week's) bit of #techoptimism, here goes: Non-invasive laser therapy has been shown to improve short-term #memory in patients by 10 and even up to 25 %! Combined with other studies, there are indications that light and sound may be key to treating or preventing #cognitive #decline or damage in humans. birmingham.ac.uk/news/2022/sho

  38. With the holidays and all, last Friday's #techoptimism got a bit delayed, but catching up on it now. Also, next Friday's will be a longer post, with some of the key great news in the world of #tech and #science this year.

  39. #Introduction: Based in Copenhagen, working in tech, I post about #innovation, #technology, and news items related to the above, with some general geekiness thrown in for good measure. Regular #techoptimism posts with a dose of good news from the world of tech and science. Because being excited about stuff is more fun.

  40. This Friday's bit of #techoptimism, in the form of the #goodnews of the week: medical company Moderna has an mRNA cancer vaccine in testing that is showing a lot of promise. In a study on skin cancer, it reduced recurrence and death by a whopping 44 %, giving hope that in a very near future, we may have a vaccine for some kinds of the dreaded illness. freethink.com/health/mrna-canc

  41. #introductions I’m a Copenhagen based techie working with emerging technology. Have started a handful of companies, sold some, closed some. Love outdoor sports, #scubadiving, and classic watches. Often toots about innovation, trying to put a bit of #techoptimism out there. Knows nothing about football/soccer.
