@mike Addendum: there's much truth to "the medium is the message".Adapting between media frequently means modifying approach or form.#OneSizeFitsNone #McLuhansGhost

Fed chair Jerome Powell on #WhatIsMoney Q: Fair to say you simply flooded the system with money?A: Yes. We did....Q: Where does it come from?...A: We print it digitally. So as a central bank, we have the ability to create money digitally. And we do that by buying Treasury Bills or bonds for other government guaranteed securities. And that actually increases the money supply. We also print actual currency and we distribute that through the Federal Reserve banks.https://www.cbsnews.com/news/full-transcript-fed-chair-jerome-powell-60-minutes-interview-economic-recovery-from-coronavirus-pandemic/

The driver of innovation isn't lone geniuses but state investment (2019)... “History tells us that innovation is an outcome of a massive collective effort – not just from a narrow group of young white men in California,” Mazzucato says. “And if we want to solve the world’s biggest problems, we better understand that.” ...https://www.wired.co.uk/article/mariana-mazzucato#innovation #technology #StateInvestment #AntiCapitalism

Some Caveats on the Contribution of Technology to Law Enforcement (1967)... the greatest long-range danger is the excessive accumulation of police power by mere access to information. Tight restrictions should also be placed upon the development of new equipment and its distribution. Above all, institutional safeguards are needed to insure that haste is not confused with progress....https://www.rand.org/pubs/papers/P3550.html#PaulBaran #surveillance #surveillanceCapitalism #surveillanceState @dredmorbius

Attending a ProtestProtecting your electronic devices and digital assets before, during, and after a protest is vital to keeping yourself and your information safe, as well as getting your message out. Theft, damage, confiscation, or forced deletion of media can disrupt your ability to publish your experiences. At the same time, those engaging in protest may be subject to search or arrest, or have their movements and associations mapped.https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/attending-protest#EFF #BLM

I've resigned as a member of the reddit board, I have urged them to fill my seat with a black candidate, + I will use future gains on my Reddit stock to serve the black community, chiefly to curb racial hate, and I’m starting with a pledge of $1M to @kaepernick7’s @yourrightscamp-- Alexis Ohanianhttps://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1268943033137053698.html#reddit #blm #justiceForAll

NB: #mastodonCloud is VERY unsteady on its feet today.500 errors out the wazoo, frequently fully down.I am not necessarily ignoring you, though that remains highly probable.

So, yeah, given #mastodonCloud's long-time flakiness and impending transfer to a pretty-much unknown entity, I'm going to be moving to toot.cat, as long promised and/or threatened.We'll see how well the automigration stuff works.I'll be interested to see if blocks propagate .... Both ways ;-)https://toot.cat/@dredmorbius

We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember that an accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep into our history and our doctrine, and remember we are not descended from fearful men – not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate, or to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular.– Edward R. Murrow
