Kan någon förklara varför S blir så sura? Är det prestige? Eller att någon i partiledningen verkligen, verkligen vill bli talman? Eller att de tycker Norlén är olämplig? Eller att V inte är lojala nog? Jag fattar inte, för jag är så väldigt mycket inte politiker.

@orangezingo@mastodon.nu Men varför? Är de barn?

@isobelhk.bsky.social Frågan är bara för vem.

@yogthos back to the 1300s was ok. Then it got really hard. Helps being Scandinavian, it seems.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social You are still missing the point, I'm guessing because you're too angry to be smart. Or maybe too interested in being right to get it right. And that is, I believe, the exact reason progressives don't progress so well. Gotta have a strategy. Gotta combine (and this is where so, so many fail) bone hard principles with pragmatism. It's not easy.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social What the fuck are you on about? No, you didn't. Or if you did you did it so damn badly it didn't show across the pond. If you had you wouldn't even be in this situation. The right wing fuck have (in their own way, which can't be our way) for decades. And in that regard we have the exact same situation here. I wrote about it back in 2010, possibly even 2005. Strategy, or lack thereof, is how we got here.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social Ok. Good luck to you. I'm sure it'll work out great.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social Yeah. But tigers are almost extinct.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social And yes, against overwhelming odds the popular guy may still lose. Of course. But the unpopular guy is certain to do it. This is not rocket science.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social You'll missing the point. Think Zelenskij. He gets it. Warm. Humorous. Very serious, of course, and angry. But friendly. Likeable. Principled. Dignified. Popular. And in the end the most popular guy/idea usually wins.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social The way I see it rethoric is a tool. Tools should be chosen and used according to strategy. "Taking a strong stance" isn't synonomous with calling people assholes. I'm not saying you shouldn't think they're assholes (obviously they are), but saying it isn't necessarily the best way to win. King, Gandhi, Mandela didn't. And their stances were pretty strong, don't you think?

@scottjenson@social.coop @luxmoore@mastodon.social @codinghorror@infosec.exchange Nah, but seriously, I had the idea many years ago to (have someone) make a 3d desktop/file manager/ whatchammacllit. Should be easier (and more fun) to navigate, after all we’re built for 3d. Instead of folder structures you’d have storage “rooms”, or even memory palace-ish structures.

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Agorithmic platforms would be the only winners. And they are the enemy, quite literally.

@level98@mastodon.social @altruios@mastodon.social @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social Margritte explained this better than anyone, the proof thereof being that tech bros mostly don’t get the explanation.

@jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @altruios@mastodon.social @level98@mastodon.social @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social Precisely. ”Queen”, for example, is a word that has (had) many meanings. ”Queen Kristina” of Sweden –again, an example– wasn’t a queen. She never married, and the word used to signify the spouse of a king. She was crowned a king, though. Which of course changed the meaning of those words, at least in Sweden, but not the same way then as it later did.

@jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social @altruios@mastodon.social I’m no mathematician, but language would be something like the n-body problem. In a sense it can be expressed as numbers, but it can’t be solved.

@Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social @jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @altruios@mastodon.social One would have to define what ”expressed in numbers” and ”described with numbers” mean. Is Pi a number? And if it is, does the symbol express it, or is it an expression for the inability to describe that function as a number? But the main thing is this: Language has no fixed meaning. A symbol (like a word) is not one thing, but many. And it shifts. Math doesn’t.

@ramsey@phpc.social @Quinn9282@mas.to @kravietz@agora.echelon.pl Tracking, landing pages, what have you. Also Google wants to set the bar as low as possible. They do not want to kill more ads than is absolutely necessary. If it took skill, real marketing know how and so forth, to advertise Google wouldn’t make any money. They need it to be simple. The real question is this: How are Google (and others) not held legally responsible for the ads they publish?

@level98@mastodon.social @altruios@mastodon.social @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social It is enormously complex, chaotic even. And while every meaning of a word might be described in numbers (or a dictionary), those descriptions are not very exact (and that’s why translation is really hard, because it isn’t just about denotation).

@jadedtwin@corteximplant.com @altruios@mastodon.social @WhiteCatTamer@mastodon.online @Eatsbluecrayon@rollenspiel.social I don’t do Youtube. If you have a point I’m sure you can make it yourself.

@ITOmarHernandez Damn right.

@benroyce@mastodon.social @glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social I'm not sure, but I think warmness and humor and joie de vivre is the way forward. Tha art of communication is not to say what you want people to think, but to get them to say it themselves. And honestly, if someone shows up with hope and fairness and such, people will see the difference. If you want asshats to look bad, give people something to compare them to.

@luxmoore@mastodon.social @scottjenson@social.coop @codinghorror@infosec.exchange I think this is analogous to touch screens in cars, in a way. Really smart from a tech prespective. Cheap. Efficient. Easy. It's just that they're bad for humans. We are built for sensory feedback. Buttons that click (there's a reason mechanical keyboards are a thing still), surfaces with different feels etc. My thinking is that a 3D UI done right would be a better match to how humans actually work.

@luxmoore@mastodon.social @scottjenson@social.coop @codinghorror@infosec.exchange As chaotic as my office often is, I rarely have to look long for things. Unless, of course, I'm looking fo a book in my book shelf – which pretty much is a 2D system, right? But I might be wrong. Not everything tanslates well. Only one way to find out.

@vingadeyeliner.bsky.social Vatten-oboy? Gränsar inte det till barnmisshandel? Dopa den med mjölkpulver så blir den bättre.

@aaron@chirp.zadzmo.org if you run this on a sub domain, would the main domain (or whatever it’s called) disappear from search engines too? Also, it would be great with some kind of one click installation á la Wordpress for us non-tech folks. Is that doable?

@thisismissem@hachyderm.io Your friendly neighbourhood copywriter has a tip: You might want to phrase that differently. It's not clear what the percentages stand for. Is it the amount of votes that are missing, the amount of votes cast _ and in that case, why is Slovenia on it? – or something else? Also, I signed.

@orangezingo@mastodon.nu Njae, men om nu Norlén skött jobbet med grace (vilket jag tror att han gjort?) så finns väl absolut ingen anledning att byta? Så varför föreslå någon annan?

@glyph@mastodon.social @petrillic@hachyderm.io @benroyce@mastodon.social @georgetakei@universeodon.com @musevg@23.social regardless of what you think about Obama’s politics: The man knows how to sell. That is what the left needs to learn. And scolding, generally, isn’t the way. Hopes and dreams and agency and dignity are.

@luxmoore@mastodon.social @scottjenson@social.coop @codinghorror@infosec.exchange Might not be a good idea. Or it might. 2D folder structures are crap. People have a really hard time keeping them structured. Things get lost, misplaced, forgotten. One of, if not the, most powerful mnemonic device ever is the memory palace. A 3D structure combined with memorable "visuals". And there could be a gamefication element to it. Seems people are quite good at memorising Minecraft worlds/builds.

@scottjenson@social.coop @luana@wetdry.world @luxmoore@mastodon.social @technobaboo@ordinary.cafe @codinghorror@infosec.exchange that’s not directed at me, right?
