Democracy? What Democracy? It's all about the old mighty cold dollar... ->

"When the World Wide Web went live in the early 1990s, its founders hoped it would be a space for anyone to share information and collaborate. But today, the free and open web is shrinking.

The Internet Archive has been recording the history of the internet and making it available to the public through its Wayback Machine since 1996. Now, some of the world’s biggest news outlets are blocking the archive’s access to their pages.

Major publishers – including The Guardian, The New York Times, the Financial Times, and USA Today – have confirmed they’re ending the Internet Archive’s access to their content.

While publishers say they support the archive’s preservation mission, they argue unrestricted access creates unintended consequences, exposing journalism to AI crawlers and members of the public trying to skirt their paywalls.

Yet, publishers don’t simply want to lock out AI crawlers. Rather, they want to sell their content to data-hungry tech companies. Their back catalogues of news, books and other media have become a hot commodity as data to train AI systems.

퀴어/여성 게이머들이 게토를 형성해서 폐쇄된 영역에 숨어 살면서 그들만의 시각으로 게임을 재해석해가며 플레이를 하고 있다는 건 말이지, 그만큼 어느정도 인구수가 된다는 뜻이기도 하지만 반대로 말해서 그럼에도 격리를 당했다는 뜻이거든. 봐라, 지금도 게임업계 좀 안 팔린다 싶으면 바로 여캐 벗겨서 남자들한테 소구하잖냐. 도스시절 태동기에도 그랬고. 모르겠으면 좀 더 구체적 예시로 아틀라스의 초창기 게임을 봐라.

I find myself at a crossroads with respect to my business. I've always thought of myself as a kind of "academic", but I've long had a lot of misgivings about the whole system of academia as currently practiced. So, I'm fine with being out of the University.

I've been able to happily occupy a strange niche of independent teaching, but the recent headwinds have been undeniably fierce and I don't really think I'd enjoy a pivot to "prompting." So.... anyways, I'm babbling.
