Valfusk, utländsk påverkan via pengar och amerikanska oligarker som äger sociala medier. Ändå vann Lula. Vi behöver säkra våra demokratier mot detta odemokratiska inflytande. Det är inte säkert att nästa "Lula" vinner.

Ägande ger makt och om de som har den inte sköter sig så får vi ta ifrån dem makten genom att begränsa deras ägande. Enkelt.

After much research I have perfected the theory of "AI as the One Ring". All AI techbros consistently fall under: - Knows it's bad, thinks they're just built different - Thinks it's inevitable and switches sides w/ no morals - Thinks it's his magic girlfriend - Evil CEO ruling over the rest of them

We are in utterly unknown territory now. The sea surface temperature in the El Niño zone is currently tracking at 3.48°C ABOVE the 30 year baseline. Way beyond anything seen before. Brace for catastrophic impact on lives and global food supply chains.

Varför accepterar journalister att rika skolägare ljuger dem rätt upp i ansiktet?

C är kvar i 2006. Det är som om finanskrisen och högerpopulismen aldrig hänt. Eller att den regelbaserade världsordningen och frihandel fortfarande existerar. Helt ut takt med tiden.

Lula's reelection is a reminder that what markets consider bad news can be good news for the public. Wall Street preferred Bolsonaro's promise to open Brazil's economy to foreign capital and multinational exploitation. The stock market measures expected returns, not human well-being.

Jahapp, bara att tvätta knacka-dörr-jackan då. Fyra år till av förstörelse. Djävla posörer som hellre har rätt än gör folks liv bättre.

When people hear AI, they only think about generative AI and large language models. Machine Learning Models are exactly the kind of thing that we should be focusing our AI efforts on. They can make sense of the huge quantities of data and patterns associated with weather forecast.

this is really nicely done.

Idag försöker jag förklara Centerpartiets inre liv, varför de beter sig så verklighetsfrånvänt, på vilka grunder de utsatte Nooshi Dadgostar för en hel dags psykisk misshandel samt hur det gick till när undertecknad och Annie Lööf blev valets stora vinnare. Läs gärna. www.dn.se/kultur/johan...

Har jag förstått det här rätt? S i Region Stockholm har försökt få till fyra olika styren (S V MP), (S V MP C), (S MP C L), (S MP C L KD), men C vägrar de första två och V de andra två. Tydligen också uppenbart att det är S fel och ingen annan har agens eller ansvar här.

Right-wing billionaires now own the Washington Post, the LA Times, CNN, CBS News, virtually every local TV station, virtually every news radio station, most local newspapers, X, Facebook, Threads, and TikTok. (Did I miss any?) They own almost the entire information environment.

Yes they are. And I am glad this slogan is gaining traction. Every billionaire is a policy failure. www.ft.com/content/2c8c...

This opinion piece is SO good. Come for the takedown of business schools, stay for the extension of the argument to how the managerial mindset has corrupted the entire institution of higher education. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/18/o...

The CEO of Microsoft France admitted that if Trump ordered the company to spy on French citizens' data (or the data of the French government), his company would comply, in secret: www.forbes.com/sites/emmawo...

And just yesterday: Meta restricted Brazilian president's Insta accounts during the election while "recommending the profile of challenger Senator Flavio Bolsonaro." What's it going to take people to get off Meta products? www.reuters.com/world/americ...

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you

It’s taking a long time for people to wake up to the fact that these platforms are not public forums but privately owned companies with terrible agendas and total control. If you lay down with these dogs…

There's so much good stuff coming from the @eurosky.social crew, we barely have time to pause and talk about it! Of your a publisher, check out, well, Publisher. Some of us have a background in media and all of us love it, and I think it shows 😁

Det är så korkat allting. Om svenska kraftnät kom fram till att vi absolut behöver kärnkraft så säger vi åt Vattenfall att bygga den. Statligt finansierat. Allt annat är dyrt hittepå för att ge bort pengar.

On Question Time last night, I talked about the extractive economic model that has left Wales - and many other nations - impoverished *because they were so rich in resources*. You can see the problem simply by looking at the map: the infrastructure looks like a drainage system.

genuinely think that chartbeat and real-time audience traffic insight dashboards are one of the worst things to happen to the media industry. it found out what people read and wanted and public trust has pretty much only sharply declined since then

Big Tech tjänar inga pengar på att vi har läroböcker

Ni kommer inte se något roligare idag.

One more thought on the whole "people going back to X" thing. I'm obviously quite biased, but I really think that atproto (which powers Bluesky and others) is about building a better internet in so many ways. But that requires people to use it. The answer to that is to build something better...

Read every word of this and share it.

Funderar mycket på det här med valfrihet och det får mig alltid att konstatera att de personer som pratar varmt om valfrihet verkar ha ett starkt behov av kontroll. Och valfriheten blir ett verktyg som används för att ge en illusion av att de har kontroll över saker.

It is, in fact, possible to impeach and remove President Trump from office next week. It won't happen, however, because Republicans also support Putin and Russia and agree with Trump.

Vad sägs om att alla slutar fjanta sig nu och bildar en jävla regering någon gång? För det här är alternativet, ni vet.

Vi avskaffar vinster i välfärden. Akademedia stämmer Sverige. Vi säger: "Jahapp, oavsett utfall får ni inte en spänn." Färdigt.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854
