The System Won’t Let Me Do That
Can you believe HAL 9000 was created in 1968? The perennial concern about AI, and in particular Advance General Intelligence (AGI), has been that it will become self-aware and take over, making choices for humans that are in the best interest of the machines rather than the people. It was HAL 9000 (HAL being one letter off of IBM) and later Skynet. What I've experienced lately is a much more subtle but equally disturbing trend: the return of Code is Law in the form of customer service […]https://johneckman.com/2026/05/20/the-system-wont-let-me-do-that/

If you are interested in decoding the telemetry of NASA's Artemis whereabouts, have a look at the Javascript behind @ian 's page below. It's straight forward with many good comments explaining what each parameter and function is and does.
Je le répète, mais je ne crois pas judicieux de critiquer l'antisémitisme du groupe LFI sans considérer leur besoin d'être visibles et présent·es sur une plateforme de communication dirigée par des pointeurs masculinistes d'extrême-droite, et capable de produire des habitus, c'est-à-dire (ÀMHA) des signalements implicites de sa position de classe objective, de ses intérêts de classe et de sa motivation à les défendre (signalés par l'ethos), ainsi que de son niveau d'organisation, et donc de sa capacité de produire durablement des ressources pour les défendre (hexis corporelle : vêtements, hygiène, maquillage, etc.). (Le découpage est très schématique car la ponctualité fait davantage partie de l'ethos, mais c'est pour vous donner une idée.)
Si les réseaux sociaux produisent de l'addiction, des formes de solidarité illusoires, et donc des habitus, selon un régime productiviste raciste, patriarcal, et eugéniste, alors pour être présent dessus le groupe LFI peut adopter la stratégie de l'identitarisme et de la haine. Ce n'est pas ce que je souhaite et de toute évidence, la stratégie de Raphaël Glucksmann – la mise en avant d'une forme de clarté confinant avec l'honnêteté brutale – fonctionne aussi, on a tout un tas d'influenceur·euses de gauche sur Instagram, etc., donc ce n'est pas une excuse. Mais c'est un enjeu technologique.

La privacy non è un crimine.
La crittografia è autodifesa, protezione.

Code is a liability, not an infinitely reproducible machine that requires no labor inputs to operate. It is a brittle machine that eventually "wears out" and needs a top-to-bottom refactoring to keep being in good working order.
It's code's capabilities that are assets.
«"Writing code" is about making code that runs well. "Software engineering" is about making code that fails well»
And then came #AI.

La fiducia imposta (Fiat) cede.
La fiducia scelta (Reale) nasce.
Non sarà un crollo.
Sarà una migrazione.
E la scelta sta cambiando tutto.

Internet Governance Bodies would account for the necessity of procuring funding for media production by establishing an arts and culture foundation (like Library of Congress, Mos Film, or Federal Theater WPA) to support the means of access, which is needed when making cultural media a public access community commons via a news protocol (BT = public fast cache)
* creating a collective funding reserve for quality information disseminated by internet protocol for censorship-resistant direct access
* hackers realized that email is the news (without PGP), hence slrn (NetworkNewsTP protocol)
but Iran might go nuclear on the People’s cache like DHS
#middleware – consider that Ceno “privacy mode” erases cache
