In-reply-to » (#snqhnpa) @andros The article is a good reminder of the true blogging mindset. But let's try to think beyond. 2 ideas: (1) writing "forces clarity, structures your thoughts, sharpens your perspective". But it also generates thoughts in the sense of Heinrich von Kleist (1805). (2) You're writing for "the future you, one right person, one day" but you are also writing for the AI. The idea of AI as an audience.

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Yeah, this AI crap is a big reason not to blog.

#Europe has been for too long mandating the use of closed #standards, and in 2018 there was an attempt to get them #open by demanding free access to them using #FOIA.

The @EUCommission@EUCommission said “no”, those asking for them sued, then appealed, and in the now called “ @carlmalamud@carlmalamud judgement” the comission was told to grant access.

Who didn’t like this? Standards bodies - entities that should be working for a goal and the common good, but instead see their work as a business. In December, #ISO and #IEC sued. Let’s see how this evolves…

Meanwhile, in the French senate:

“Mrs. Catherine Morin-Desailly . - We need an industrial surge if we do not want France and the European Union to be crushed in the Homeric war between the Americans and the Chinese. The Horizon 2030 plan, which is failing, must be accompanied by strategic European funding, combining research and development in an open source logic , and an assumed doctrine of public procurement to strengthen our sovereignty. Our data is strategic, it is not negotiable for gas!

Let’s have a proactive speech at the Paris summit. Nothing would be worse than rolling out the red carpet for Musk, Zuckerberg and their cronies. (Applause from the benches of the UC , RDS E, SER groups and from several benches of the GEST ; Mr. Pierre Ouzoulias also applauds . )”

250.000 scrobbles!

How does my current, cumulative digital listening stats compare with the first ten years of it?

Well, Mindless Self Indulgence got more plays than +ko+ko+, Sieben got into my top 10 bands (Empyrium falling into 11th place).

In sum: almost nothing changed, the only “surprise” is Sieben getting more plays these last few years (there was a time it wasn’t even part of my Top 15).
