Bueno, pues que me mudo. Ya iba siendo hora de cambiar el por defecto y aburrido mastodon.social por algo más interesante.
https://xarxa.cloud es un nodo de mastodon no muy grande, dedicado a la gente activista social y también hay presencia de software libre y cosas frikis. Parece el entorno ideal para mí.
Nos vemos allí en un rato.

Adapted from Tolkien's amazing words, the first chapter of The Silmarillion spans the mythological creation of Middle-Earth and its gods. Told here with loving care and reverence in 54 full color pages. Original story by Tolkien, not owned by Evan Palmer. I was interviewed about the book &nbs
“We've arranged a society based on #science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. This combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces.”

El boost que acabo de poner es muy curioso. Es una prueba concreta de que algo planificado y con restricciones calculadas puede ser más eficiente que un sistema de libertad total donde cada persona busque su mejor opción individualmente.
Al mismo tiempo parece muy obvio, pero diametralmente contrario al sentido común neoliberal.
Seoul shut down a six-lane highway, turning it into a park
Motorists flipped out — they predicted it would create horrible traffic jams, if they suddenly had one less major route
Nope: traffic in the city overall *sped up*
This terrific piece in Scientific American explains why — via “Braess’s Paradox”: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/removing-roads-and-traffic-lights/
