What hit me out of the blue is that "The Box with the Sound of its Own Making" is ultimately one of the most accurate portraits of a 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴, particularly in their capacity to miss their mark — yet being able to convey the process of becoming themselves only in that exact fashion. One could argue that it is the only way of being known by another thinking being
Acousmatic design, if treated right, might offer a way out in the age of apathy
A quotation from Martin, Judith:
«
In its natural state, the child tells the literal truth because it is too naive to think of anything else. Blurting out the complete truth is considered adorable in the young, right smack up to the moment that the child says, “Mommy, is this the fat lady you can’t stand?” At this point, the parent rig…

Just completed day 4 of this year's Advent of Code:

Actually a pretty good way to get familiar with a new programming language.
Though that's probably some super inefficient #Lua code and loopy as hell. But I think there's something nice about its #naïveté.

25 ans de pratique d'internet, et j'ai encore un instant d'hésitation face à une demande de contact* de quelqu'un que je ne connais pas, de peur d'être mal élevée.

*sur messagerie privée
Du coup ça me fait me poser plein de questions sur ce que la "bonne éducation" nous impose comme comportements, parfois contraires à notre intérêt/sécurité. De peur de froisser on accepte. Je pensais que je savais dire non, aujourd'hui, mais les réflexes sont bien ancrés apparemment...

RULE OF THUMB (OBSERVED):
if you make a computer game "these days" and you call it a Rogue-like, and, if you are under the age of 40-45 or so, then:
it is (almost certainly & nearly always) NOT A FUCKING Rogue-like!!!!!!
"Kids, get off my lawn."
I will not be taking questions. Please respect my family's wishes at this sensitive time. Thank you all for coming to my TED Talk today...

Following hot on the heels of last week’s discussion of naïveté in solarpunk, @arielkroon wants to address the idea of hope head-on. “Hope” is a word that gives people warm fuzzy feelings when they read it or use it, but she's not sure that it’s very well understood in this day and age. Because most people equate the concept of hope with that of naïve positivity and intentional ignorance of “reality”.

In today's blog post, @xtinadlr muses on solarpunk naivete and asks "dear solarpunks and everyone else who’d like to avoid a dystopian very near future, how do we neutralize the destructive effects of people like this? Especially when the “fight” is asymmetric, because we can’t resort to Machiavellianism, bullying, or steamrolling over norms in return?"

Leave us a comment on the website with your thoughts; we're honestly kind of stumped by this...

Finally, someone - in this case Matthew Iglesias, has taken on the #TechBro “technology optimists” who naively believe that we can ‘tech’, ‘build’, and ‘birth’ out way out of our current problem spaces. They’re wrong and it’s rubbish of course. Impulsive, immature naïveté by folks who SHOULD know better. This kind of insane, happy optimism in the face of overpopulation, climate change, a falling birthrate, war and polarization is just arrogant folly. They argue all technology is inherently good, uh-huh. Here’s Iglesia’s worthy takedown https://www.slowboring.com?utm_source=navbar&utm_medium=web&r=3icfk #technolgy #TechnologyOptimism #TechOptimism #Naivete #SiliconValley

Ya, this doesn't seem to be a thing in my experience.
I've met and talked with tons of #Americans. I don't think I've ever heard one express #animosity to Canada. #Confusion, yes. Mistaken #assumptions, yes. #Cliches and #stereotypes, yes. All the #ignorant #naivete you ever heard: we live in #igloos, we just got #electricity last year, all pets must by law be named #Pierre.
And lots that know #nothing about #Canada, including where it is.
But no #hatred.
