Tuve de ir ver ao estudo propriamente dito.
Parece que a PCGuia trocou as legendas de dois dos resultados e a coisa é ainda mais incrível que antes: só 3 em cada 10 trabalhadores em Portugal é que não usam IA no seu trabalho. Volto a perguntar: será credível?
Fui à procira da fonte, vi que tinham um documento de resumo, fui ver e dei com isto… e agora tenho ainda menos confiança nestes números.
Segundo o resumo publicado na #PCGuia a um estudo da @kpmg@kpmg só 2 em cada 5 trabalhadores em Portugal não usam #IA. Será possível?

What’s Missing from “Retro”: gopher://midnight.pub/0/posts/2679

@movq@www.uninformativ.de having to go to a gopher proxy to see a text document better served on readily available web servers… 🤭, but I digress. Verbatim text:
What's Missing from "Retro"
~softwarepagan
------------------------------------------------------------------
You know, often, when I say I miss older ways of computing or
connecting online, people tell me "there's nothing stopping you
from doing that now!" and they are technicay correct in most cases
(though I can't, for example, chat with friends on MSN ever
again...) However, let me explain that while this type of thing can
*sort of* fill that hole in my heart, it isn't *the same.*
Say, for example, I wanted to connect with others over a BBS. This
wouldn't offer the same types of connections it used to. While
there are BBSes around with active users, they're no longer there
to discuss movies, Star Trek, D&D, games, etc. They're there to
discuss *BBSes.* The same can be said for Gopher, old-school forums
and all sorts of revival projects (such as Escargot, Spacehey,
etc.) Retrocomputing enthusiasts, while they have a variety of
interests, are often in these spaces to discuss the medium itself
and not other topics. This exists at a stark contrast from how
things were in the past, where a non-tech-inclined person may learn
the tech to connect with likeminded others (as I did as a
Zelda-obsessed kid.)
The same can be said of old media. People will say "well, nobody is
stopping you from watching old shows/movies now!" Again, they are
technically correct. I can go home right now and watch *Star Trek:
The Next Generation* to my heart's content. It will never again,
however, be current, or new. When something is new, it serves as a
shared cultural experience. Remember how "Game of Thrones* felt in
the mid-to-late 2010s? Yeah, that.
It's sad. I sustain myself on a mixed diet of old things, new
things, and new things intended for old millenials like me who like
old things. It can be bittersweet.

#Extramuralhas
A #musiquinta é para músicas ou bandas com nome de cidade, estado ou país.
Laibach é “the Austrian German name of the Slovenian capital Ljubljana” e também p nome da banda escolhida. Tem várias músicas com nomes de países (especialmente graças ao álbum Volk) mas escolho uma música que fala sobre um continente: Eurovision.
Mas que sarilho é este em que me meti?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh what do you mean by images don’t embed? They definitely should! By default however all domains are blocked, so you might want to either allow some domains or just put in a .* entry to allow all/any domsins. Screenshot attached

Since Fastly acquired and recently shut down glitch.com, some of my ancient webapps are no longer available, nor do I have any plans to make them available again - all had either zero, or very few monthly visits, used outdated libraries and would be a waste of money, to continue hosting and updating elsewhere.
All art archives remain unaffected and all projects shut down before 2025, were already permanently deleted, but if there’s someone out there, still relying on the recently discontinued projects, somehow - you can reach out and request their source code.
These requests will only be honoured, until the end of this year, when we plan to permanently delete, all of this data (both webapps and files only hosted on Amazons CDN).

#Musiquinta das #Trevas em honra do #Ozzy
Diz o anúncio deste tema que qualquer música sobre “inferno, demônios, vampiros ou qualquer outra referência ao submundo” serve… Ora, em 2020 estava uma tourné anunciada com #MarilynManson e o Ozzy, que foi cancelada porque o Ozzy precisou de iniciar tratamentos, e depois houve o lockdown. Essa tourné serviria para promover o album “WE ARE CHAOS” (que nunca chegou a ser tocado ao vivo), e nele há trevas infinitas, neste “INFINITE DARKNESS”…

Agora que as ondas de calor já passaram e já consigo ter a casa outra vez a temperaturas aceitáveis, já tenho coragem de pegar nesta #leitura de #verão: #Portugal #2055 (#BD Portuguesa sobre a #criseclimática).
Vi um artigo (quase publicitário, mas ainda assim interessante) sobre a nova fábrica de discos de #vinil em #Portugal.
O artigo é interessante, mas o número que me chamou a atenção e merece destaque é mesmo uma nota de rodapé já quase fora do tema…

Pessoas da comunidade brasileira de #ProgramaçãoCriativa por muitos anos fizeram encontros sob o nome promovido pela Fundação Processing, os chamados #ProcessingCommunityDay, fizemos encontros em várias cidades e então depois de 2020, com a pandemia do COVID-19, fizemos três eventos nacionais muito inspiradores em 2021, 2022 e 2023 (vide https://compoetica.github.io/links/)
Ano passado não conseguimos fazer e este ano pretendemos retomar, só que usando outro nome: #Compoética. Vamos aos poucos divulgar mais sobre o encontro brasileiro de programação criativa em https://compoetica.github.io/CP2025/
Meus agradecimentos profundos ao @guilhermesv@guilhermesv que dedica generosamente um enorme esforço para organizar esses eventos da comunidade e cria o design e peças de comunicação sempre emocionantes de lindos.

Mais uma derrota contra o uso comum.
46 Mapas debaixo do sol!
“O #JornalMAPA 46 sai para as ruas já com um partido fascista como segunda força política no parlamento da democracia representativa e não podia deixar de olhar para esse fenómeno, assim como ao à vontade da extrema-direita grupuscular. Por outro lado, porque é quando se fecham portas que se abrem janelas, decidimos focar especialmente em lugares de dissidência. A luta queer é um dos exemplos da importância de reclamar a origem utópica e radical das resistências. E hoje, contra o pinkwashing dos EuroPrides, afirma-se a solidariedade com a Palestina, que nunca será esquecida.
Neste mundo e num país em que o autoritarismo ganha força, importa manter um olhar sobre quem procure activamente fazer a sua vida de outro modo cultivando a autonomia. Nesse ponto não podíamos deixar de destacar o recém-saído documentário «Agroecologia em movimento», de João Garrinhas, um retrato sobre o movimento português das Associações para a Manutenção da Agricultura de Proximidade (AMAP), sobre grupos auto-organizados de produtorxs e consumidorxs. Entrevistamos, ainda neste contexto, a nova revista Poucaterra, que pugna por acesso à terra, agroecologia e convivialidade (uma leitura a juntar à revista Flauta de Luz, com o nº 11 já nas livrarias).”

Why? Because it turns out you can only see it if you are in landscape, in portrait view the button simply does not exist…
As feiras medievais são “reconstruções históricas” do que nunca existiu - e ainda assim espalham-se pelo país como momentos de convívio e folia. Em Lamego tem a particular característica de ser promovida como contendo uma recriação histórica das #cortes de Lamego*, ainda que estas nunca tenham existido.
Mas para mim a feira #medieval de #Lamego é aquela altura do ano em que vou até à praça e bebo #hidromel. E quem diz que essa não é uma boa tradição a manter e celebrar? ;-)

FRIENDS I GOT A PHYSICAL COPY OF A TUX GAME LOOK AT ITTTTTTTTTT
E por falar de figuras a quem o Observador dá voz…
Ao saber que o tema desta #musiquinta ia provavelmente ser a #estrada veio-me logo à cabeça o disco Spectre dis Laibach: não só o CD rodou imenso comigo mas gravei-o para cassete para ouvir no carro, e desde então (até ao carro ter ido para a sucata, muitos anos depois) era a cassete que tocava nas nossas viagens mais de 90% das vezes.
E como o musiquinta não é sobre discos mas músicas, e o tema não é sobre o que se ouve na estrada mas “qualquer música que mencione viagens”, então a música deste disco que escolho é a “Walk With Me”. Uma canção (e todo um disco) com já mais de uma década (o tempo passa!) mas com uma mensagem importante para os dias que hoje vivemos.
“Later in the evening, posting on X, #Macron said: “I’m banning #socialmedia for #children under 15. Platforms have the ability to verify age. Let’s do it.”
French authorities are already progressing with efforts to force certain social media sites — including X, Reddit, Bluesky and #Mastodon — to introduce age verification, by classifying them as pornographic websites.
French measures forcing porn sites to verify their users’ ages came into effect on June 7, prompting the world’s largest porn website, Pornhub, to stop operating in France. Demand for virtual private network services, which allow users to trick websites into thinking they are in a different location, immediately surged.”
