No longer dr to be!

Everything wrong with tech in 2023 (in no particular order)

1. The obsession with short-term profits severely undermines long-term positive impact.

2. The lack of diversity among founders and investors propagates harmful exclusion.

3. The prevalence of poor work-life balance and burnout culture is inhumane and unsustainable.

4. Too many products optimized for addiction show callous disregard for user well-being.

…And more.

And so it was written #thesis #finally #just1000revisionstogo

Whoever at Apple designed how to recharge the mouse deserves a pay rise! Now I have a reason to stop work.

#Science isn’t “facts.” It isn’t “truth.”

It’s a dynamic process in which we’re always testing hypotheses & learning more about our world.

@historleans today my heart breaks for the hope of humanity. I’m sorry my vote was insufficient.

#Thevoice As an immigrant I knew that racism is an issue in Australia but I tried to be hopeful that people would do the right thing. I’m so disappointed this evening that racism won out. I’m saddened at how prevalent it is. Sure the lies amplified by the media didn’t help. But I’d hoped that compassionate smart people would be in the majority. The Voice didn’t go far enough but it might have been a start to ensuring that First Nation people had some input. For shame Australia. 😞

Voted to change the constitution. #historymaking

Is the #VoiceToParliament perfect? Hell no.

Is the Voice to Parliament better than what we have now. Yes, ABSOLUTELY.

Will we get an alternative or something better if it fails. NO. NOT FOR AT LEAST 50 YEARS, IF THAT SOON. #Referendum2023 #VoteYesToVoice

THe choices are:

a) Take what you can get NOW, and open the door for more later. or

b) Get NOTHING FOREVER.

Looking forward to a mum daughter night!
