Big congrats @janniehartley.bsky.social on this phenomenal new book! It looks fantastic (and gorgeous), am looking forward to digging in. I recall fondly you talking about it @annenberg.usc.edu ~a year ago, wonderful to see it in the world.
#JustForYou It’s out and am so excited! It’s personal, it’s historic, its sociological and it investigates our lives with algorithmic machines. It’s also open access but I would recommend buying it, because it’s also very beautiful🙌 www.nordicom.gu.se/en/publicati...

Look what arrived in the mail today! "This Is About Running. This Is Not About Running", the new book by one of the persons who has inspired my most in recent years. I cannot wait to dive into it. Congratulations, @coachbennett.bsky.social!! This is a big deal. #SkyRunDK
[DK] Nogle gange fører ens arbejde til uventede steder. Da jeg stod op i morges, regnede jeg fx ikke med, at jeg skulle omkring dette historiske tv-klip (fra 2000) i dag - men det kom jeg altså... www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Tel...

Here are a series of essays I wrote about Dolly tied to albums at the beginning, middle and end of her vast, prolific career, if you're looking for a little themed reading. www.dontrocktheinbox.com/on-dolly-par...
"Just for You", the new book by my friend and colleague @janniehartley.bsky.social, is out today. It's about how personalization algorithms curate our image of the world. You should read it. It's a good book, and it is beautiful. And is freely available. www.norden.org/en/publicati...
Just realized that @jmcquarterly.bsky.social reviewed our book quite favourably in last year: "Overall, this book provides an excellent overview of institutions that have influenced the development of #podcasting." (Kammer somehow became "Hammer", though...) journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

New in PN: Disney runs out of patience with Brendan Carr’s bullsh*t "For over a year, ABC tried to appease the Trump administration. That era is now over. On Tuesday, ABC, its parent company Disney, and eight ABC-owned stations sued Carr and the FCC for grossly violating the First Amendment."

“Overwhelmingly, these sources said that what was most unsettling to them was that for many months, they’ve been wargaming & meticulously planning how to defend their upcoming elections from Trump in ways that mirror how they’d plan to protect elections from a foreign adversary, not the president…”
disturbing the level of resources & time that election officials, elected Dems, & others across the U.S. are devoting to preparing for if Trump tries to sic ICE, troops, or armed feds on their polling sites @justinglawe.bsky.social & I take you behind the scenes on how: zeteo.com/p/inside-dem...

The documents Trump cited don't even make his case - and actually refute much of it. But that didn'tg matter. No foreign regime, no spies, no saboteurs have yet matched the damage that America’s own president just did tonight to faith in U.S. elections. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Claims like this used to get me in trouble with the micropayments mob "micropayments are hardly the silver bullet to put out the funding crisis of struggling news media... industry actors are probably better off spending their limited resources on solidifying the value proposition of subscriptions"
🚨 Publication alert 🚨 Q: Do young audiences prefer micropayments or subscriptions when paying for online journalism? A (on the basis of 2,720 survey responses): "subscription is consistently favoured over micropayments across all content types".

"He never offers details for how these plans will work, because he can’t. Trump’s promises are the needle in America’s collective vein. [...] He makes some feel better for a bit. But he cannot fix what ails them, and one day they’ll realize it." - J. D. Vance, '16 www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
"When the certainty of rules is no longer guaranteed by its guardians, the integrity of the game is at stake and the credibility of a competition is undermined. Equally, such decision creates a precedent in the ongoing tournament". This is about soccer. And this is not about soccer.

For få dage siden kunne @krigskunst.dk fejre fem år på YouTube (selvom podcasten reelt er et års tid ældre). Jeg tænkte, at det er en god anledning til at tage et kig under statistik-kølerhjelmen:

I am not certain, but I think this might be the greatest thread (and greatest use of alt text) of all time.
I've decided to compile a definitive thread of photos of the best sheep I've photographed during my walks in the countryside, together with supporting biographical information. I will put the vital story associated with each sheep in the alt text, since some of it is a little long to fit in a post.

[DK] Jeg er ikke ekspert i #droner - men jeg synes, at dette er en god og køligt oplysende tråd.
Der bliver sagt og skrevet meget vrøvl om droner efter at først Forsvaret har fremlagt sin evaluering og Politiet nu har lukket efterforskningen af nedlukningen af Københavns Lufthavn. Derfor kan det være relevant at gøre op, hvad der faktisk er blevet lagt frem. (1/x)
