⬆️ >> This illustrates perhaps better than any other example that the device precedes the infrastructure.
And thus, @asymco has decisively settled the debate over which came first: chicken or egg.
A comment in the linked post talks about the failure of #US railroad and chalks it up to the rise of trucking, but the latter had its own infrastructure.
Look at rail infrastructure in #Europe and #Asia, particularly the dense network in #India. The US just didn't have enough "devices"

"we are heading toward a clash of civilizations. Not Huntington’s clash between cultures, but something more fundamental. A clash between incompatible visions of how humans should organize themselves—whether ordinary people possess the capacity to govern their own lives.
And the die is already cast.
…not policy disagreements [but] incompatible visions of what kind of civilization we should be."

Should democracies ban populist frontrunners?
#MarinelePen in #France. #CălinGeorgescu in #Romania. How upholding liberal democracy can also endanger liberal democracy. #HistoryofthePresent

>> This is where it cracks
>> The economic damage is real and vast… Debt-soaked countries face even more uncertainty as investor confidence tanks. The global supply chain, already battered, begins to seize.
>> The myth was that… #Trump, #Orban, #Meloni, #Milei, #Modi—pick your avatar—would together redraw the map… But Trump doesn't share. He demands fealty. There is no Trump Doctrine that makes space for others. There is only Trump.

>> #Freedom that is rewriting school textbooks to erase ideas incompatible with Hindutva? As soon as you accept a few million deaths for a better world, you have become a monster.
You have pivoted away from whether accepting a #TwoStateSolution proposed by #UN for #BritishIndia as well as for #BritishMandate in #Palestine was better for all.
#Hindutva is a different monster.

⬆️ Time to boost 🧵 #EcstasyAndAmnesia again… #WorthReading
Hard to miss the sudden and magical end to the conflict as #Biden retires.
Noting that correlation ≠ causation, I posit that the conflict was contrived for a specific objective, that objective was achieved, and like #DamascusProtocol, it was NOT dreamt up in consultation with #Palestinians, nor had #Palestinian interest in mind.
Once again, ecstasy will subside, amnesia will set in, and Palestinians will let others fight #inTheirName

How the #Democrats Blew It.
Serious, and #worthReading.
There are some nuggets of truth in there. Best to #acknowledgeTheProblem even if it goes against your deepest convictions.

Very good (and brief) history of #Syria, starting with #ArabSpring to the present-day collapse of #Assad regime.

Brian Krebs recent article - Why Phishers Love New TLDs Like .shop, .top and .xyz - begins with a review of Interisle's Cybercrime Suppy Chain 2024 study findings and measurements and dives into an investigative area where he excels: identifying the parties behind the crimes.
Brian reports that "At least some of that increase is likely from a prolific cybercriminal using the nickname Chenlun, who has been selling phishing kits targeting domestic postal services in the United States and at least a dozen other countries."
While the title suggests this post is about TLDs, Brian also calls attention to our findings regarding subdomain providers, noting that "cyberattacks hosted at subdomain provider services can be tough to mitigate, because only the subdomain provider can disable malicious accounts or take down malicious web pages."
Brian caught up to CAUCE president and Interisle's friend and colleague John Levine, who was brutally frank about ICANN’s proposed next round envisions accepting applications for new gTLDs in 2026. #worthreading #krebsonsecurity #cybercrime #domainabuse

I remember! I remember and ponder "battles won". Social progress is mostly full of two steps forward and one slip back. I am lucky and privileged. Reading and learning about social progress is heartening.
