I just sent Joichi Ito’s dissertation on how we can intervene in complex systems over to my Kindle: https://joi.ito.com/the-practice-of-change.html #mit #joiito #change I am looking forward to getting lost and then feeling my way back out of the dark.

Where are the solid.mit.edu folks? Do these play nicely together?

My superpower is waking up and reading or writing when I wake up, instead of tossing and turning and wishing I could go back to sleep.

Been a minute. I’m ready to try this again.

Doing my 2 Minute Mindsweep™ is like stretching… I know I should do it. I know it makes everything better. I know life is better when I do. Also, it’s so easy to skip.

Today, I didn’t skip, and I’m feeling great.

I'm going to need some tools.

And and tool belt.

/me reads https://medium.com/@Gargron/april-post-mortem-12e3d141878c because Mastodon’s rise has been very interesting to me, and I appreciate everything @Gargron has done, and open source software is important.

switching back over to the slack beta version to see if they are actually improving faster than the stock version

Who has/will build the 1-click OAuth integration to Mastodon instances that automatically backs up my archive?

Been digesting “Alien Knowledge” a.k.a. computers that have decided things are true but we can’t understand why - this morning after stumbling upon https://backchannel.com/our-machines-now-have-knowledge-well-never-understand-857a479dcc0e

Oh, wow, remember stumble upon?

Anyway… I like the idea that we want to understand things…. but I’m not convinced we have to understand them for them to be true.

Also, maybe theory of relativity applies to ‘knowledge’ AND time?

Oh, hey, April 27th. What's up?
