This might be the 4th time I've read Freire through, but every re-visit re-invigorates. This time I'll be reading a series of his works in preparation for my next book. Heavy lift here, but worth it.

Auf der Encuentro Konferenz haben u.a. Priester und Nonnen über ihre Friedensarbeit gesprochen und ich stand kurz vor den Tränen.

Es ist unglaublich wie Menschen täglich so viel Leid erfahren, tote Menschen auf den Straßen als "Alltag" erleben und dennoch lächeln können, dennoch täglich aufstehen und kämpfen.

Diese Menschen die trotzdem das Gute in der Menschheit sehen, das sind die wahren Held:innen.

Habe große Ehrfurcht vor diesen Befreiungstheolog:innen! @kardinalkoenighaus

300MLoC... and turning programmers into alienated, easy to replace, gears.

Gears eagger to contribute to users' exploitation (in the case of #BigTech) or just unaware of their own alienation.

Note that I'm in no way debating your argument: you are right, the current IT industry needs tools like #Rust or #Kubernetes to reduce their workers' autonomy, standardize their experience, homologate their behaviors and beliefs.

All to exploit their energy and funnel their creativity to its own goals (maximize owners' profits and power).

And just like #Freire descibed in The pedagogy of the oppressed, developers interiorize the tools of their own oppression, improving their efficacy and efficency.
Thats how some techs go from hype to religion, #cargo culting and all.

But is this progress?
Is it "moving forward"?
Towards what kind of world?

You may or may not enjoy such evolution of our profession.

I don't.

Basically because I understand well where it leads both for us and everybody else.

For example, back in the 90 #FreeSoftware licensing was empowering devs because the inherent complexity of software was lower. Now you have all these permissively licensed molochs (kernels, browsers, compilers, orchestrators... but even standards) no single human can meaningful hope to fully understand.
The 4 freedoms granted by the licenses are voided for people and can only be exploited by big corporations.

But even on a pratical level, the practices our industry want from us are boring, convoluted, exhausting.

We are trained (mind-washed) to believe such practices are the best for #security, #scalability and what not. But the best of us, such as @jana@social.jsteuernagel.de, end up discovering they are all designed to solve problems that we don't have (or for problems that such artificial unneeded complexity creates). We learn that ultimately such tools and practice steal us of the joy of our passion for no real advantage (to us).

That's not #philosophy.

It's just reasoning on the trajectories of our field without the usual corporate blinkers.

TORRELAVEGA (ANP/BELGA) - De Spaanse politie heeft een onderzoek geopend naar de verdwijning van oud-wielrenner Oscar Freire, meldden Spaanse media woensdag. De 48-jarige drievoudig wereldkampioen, die lang voor de Nederlandse ploeg Rabobank reed, is sinds twee dagen vermist.

Wenn uns #Merz seine Kumpanen aus der Wirtschaft so primitiv wie #Trump präsentieren würde, wäre dem Wahlkampf mehr gedient, als mit Gesichtern auf grün und violett , die nicht für Inhalt stehen: Wer kennt hierzulande schon die #Wirtschaftsverbände hinter den #Parteien, auch hinter #Söder?

#Medien pflegen eine Kultur des Scheigens (#Freire) und es Umschmeichelns der wunderbaren Personen unseres wunderbaren Landes, das sie geschaffen haben. Elebe der #ÖRR und die #ARD der großartigsten Partei!

„Es ist die Ideologie, die die Ideologie tötet, die den Tod der Geschichte, das Verschwinden der Utopie, die Vernichtung des Traums anordnet. Eine fatalistische Ideologie, die die #Erziehung entpolitisiert, sie zur puren Übung im Gebrauch von technischen Fähigkeiten und wissenschaftlichem Wissen reduziert.“ (Paolo #Freire, zit. nach Frigga #Haug: Die Unruhe des #Lernens, 2020, S. 54)

It is somewhat fitting that Paulo #Freire 's birthday is on International Talk Like A #Pirate day.

Vandaag ben ik (weer) geinspireerd geraakt door presentaties met daarin Gramsci, #Freire, #Hegel, #Marx, #Vygotskij en vele anderen. En jullie?

Não é de estranhar, pois, que nesta visão “bancária” da educação, os homens sejam vistos como seres da adaptação, do ajustamento. Quanto mais se exercitem os educandos no arquivamento dos depósitos que lhes são feitos, tanto menos desenvolverão em si a consciência crítica de que resultaria a sua inserção no mundo, como transformadores dele. Como sujeitos. (FREIRE,1994, p34)

“Trust is contingent on the evidence which one party provides the others of his true, concrete intentions; it cannot exist if that party's words do not coincide with their actions. To say one thing and do another—to take one's own word lightly—cannot inspire #trust. To glorify #democracy and to #silence the people is a farce; to discourse on #humanism and to negate #people is a #lie.” —#Paulo #Freire
