Murder of the dancefloor

Renata Cloud @blog@renata.cloud

You have heard it, you have seen it - nightclubs are closing down, the party scene is dying. The reasons given for it are many - young people can't afford going out because it's expensive, or they don't drink that much anymore. I'm going to propose something else entirely: what if nightlife is dying because social media killed the fun of dance parties? When you go to a nightclub, in the 2020s, what you see is groups of people dressed up, with phones in their hands, constantly posing for […]

Cross-posting is coming to NodeBB!

julian @julian@community.nodebb.org

<p><strong>tl;dr</strong> — cross-posting is coming to NodeBB in v4.9.0. It will be internal-only for now, as we work through social issues with federated cross-posting. Existing category sync and auto-categorization logic in NodeBB now utilises cross-posts instead of moving or ignoring categorized topics, respectively.</p> <h3>Some history</h3> <p>For the past couple months, I've been mulling over the idea of cross-posting, and how this would work in a federated forum context.</p>

There’s a number of people, especially Linux enthusiasts, that kind of go around with this very USian customer-is-always-right mentality and judge things other people make as if everything in the world has to be made specifically to cater to them

'중산층'의 기준도 한국은 다른 나라에 비해서 물질적인 것에만 집중되어 있는 것도 그렇고, 23개 국가 24000명 이상의 성인을 대상으로 입소스에서 설문조사를 했는데, "한 사람의 성공을 나타내는 최고의 지표가 돈인가?"라는 질문에서 전체의 57%가 아니라고 답한 반면에, 중국 한국 한정으로는 70%가 예라고 답한 결과도 있다고 합니다. 가치 추구보다는 물질적인 것에 목맴 + 삶이 팍팍해지니까... '돈이 안 되는 것'을 경시하는 풍조가 심해지면서 도덕심 교양 함양 등도 등한시 된 것이 크지 않나 싶네요.

用鑄鐵鍋,一定會有不小心煮到臭火焦、太久沒用生鏽的情況。

但就算如此也不要緊,把臭火焦或生鏽的地方刷掉,重新上油就可以慢慢地復原了。

演算法這門科技,是需要有數據資料才能夠運作的。而這些數據資料的來源,就是我們這些天天上網、天天餵資料給它的使用者們。演算法的出現,確實改變了我們的生活;而另一方面,演算法所帶來的焦慮,同樣也對我們的生活造成了影響。演算法承諾會替我們做決策、會對我們的想法和慾望做出最佳估測,並進而介入了我們的生活,於是某種「演算法心態」便於焉誕生了。所謂的「演算法心態」,不僅僅只涉及演算法的運作模式而已,它同時也指涉著社會大眾對於演算法科技的高度依賴。即使我們對演算法鋪天蓋地的影響力有所不滿,但我們依舊依賴演算法,讓它代替我們自己做決定。

This makes the rounds now and then and there's always something in it that's kind of surprising. Voltaire might have met Blackbeard. There was a window there where Kierkegaard could have shaken some sense into Edgar Allan Poe. Catherine The Great and Ivan The Terrible could have had kids who were only OK.

학원 아이돌마스터 시리즈에 나오는 하타야 미스즈의 신곡인 Superlative

학원마스 곡들이 전체적으로 최근 유행하는 EDM스타일들을 따르고 있는데 반해 이번곡은 정말 올드스쿨... 까지는 아니더라도 2010년대에 유행했을법한 페스티벌계열 느낌부터 최근 트랜드까지 다 잘 섞어놓은 곡 같아서 재밌네요...

In the 1980s-2000s, conservatives railed against the postmodern left for fomenting the breakdown of norms and knowledge.

But since the 2010s, it's MAGA and the alt-right who wage war on science, facts, expertise, and vetted knowledge.

It's part of their authoritarian plan. No facts. No truth. No democracy.

Defending democracy means unmasking the post-postmodern right as the nihilistic grifters and power mongers they are.

This VOX piece got it right back in 2017.
