@npub1ykg…g4jv I wish I could be there! It sounds like your talk will include some preliminary findings about what you have found in your interviews, or has that already been released in some form?

There are many things to like about Mastodon, but one thing I have come to love, with all its blurriness, is being able to follow #hashtags. It truly is delightful.

I was invited to participate in a small panel at work about #AI in #libraries & #archives. I agreed once it became clear I could rant for 15 minutes among friends with no consequences (I hope!). I put my notes and slides here: https://inkdroid.org/2024/03/12/ai/

@npub1tra…npqw I enjoyed your review of Free Agents, especially where you draw out Mitchell's idea of how life distinguishes itself by keeping a record of history about past events which "play a causal role in the present". Does that topic figure pretty strongly in the book, or are there other things that might be worth reading?

@npub1trd…ussx do you think focusing on how governance *actually* operates in a project (both implicitly and explicitly) can be a helpful way of working with those differences? Or is that a killjoy too?
