Hello world! The logical end-point of distribution and federation is a personal instance. This is my Mastodon instance.
AI based predictors the text said. I read 'AI based predators'. That type of misreading keeps happening to me. There must be a bias somewhere in my own training dataset...
Some impressions of my increased usage of Hypothes.is, a social annotation tool, in the past few days.
https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2022/08/using-hypothes-is-early-impressions/
By way of experiment I have added on my blog, where they exist, annotations of my postings to the posting itself. Such annotations are made in Hypothes.is. My single post site template pulls them in through the Hypothesis API.

Is it possible to annotate links in Hypothes.is that are in the Internet Archive? Maybe @chrisaldrich knows? As he's been annotating the same pages I'm looking at now.

#Facebook and #Instagram not only track everything you do in their in-app browsers (to be expected), but they inject their own code into websites you visit and even collect your passwords.
Please stop using these godforsaken apps. Fuck.
Die EU Data Governance Act is per direct geldig straks, zonder NL wet, dus wellicht is het de discussie v aanpassingen in bestaande wetten daarvoor? Je moet dan vragen kunnen stellen aan data, de overheid hoeft niet te antwoorden, en een antwoord hoeft niet te gaan om de data zelf. Maar bijv 'uit de CBS microdata krijg je deze aggregatie obv je vraag'.
Can we all stop talking to our Luhmannesque index cards and learn to interview GPT-3 instead?

A while ago I mentioned Research Rabbit here as a tool to find research papers, based on the ones already in my collection (e.g. through syncing with Zotero). Last week I created an account at Elicit. It's a natural language processing based algorithm to find relevant papers for you based on a specific research question you give it to work with (although it can also take you
Sorry I’m Late, It Was Geo-Fencing! A friend had an unexpected walk to a wedding when his e-scooter geofenced range was reached.

Some jottings on using OPML blogrolls to include the blogrolls of bloggers I follow, as a means of discovery. Tried 3 outliner tools to see how they handle such OPML includes.

Dave Winer adds markdown support to RSS. I wonder if this opens up new ways for me to connect my (markdown) notes locally to my website, or provide feeds from my notes to (selected) others. Need to explore and play with this a bit.

Horrifying account of what looks like scientific misconduct (possibly fraud). The whole theory of how Alzheimer's works and the lines of research to cure it may be grounded on false evidence for the last 15 years or so. https://www.science.org/content/article/potential-fabrication-research-images-threatens-key-theory-alzheimers-disease
After this week I am on summer hiatus for a few weeks. I may post here or not, I'll see. It was a regular week, but with a focus on finishing some stuff, and otherwise avoiding new stuff until I will be back. Y was at home a few days, so that limited bot E's and my working time somewhat.
This week I

Some things I jotted down wrt semantic web and markdown. A random collection of first associations, not sure what to call a post like that, so named it Jottings.
