@bkuhn I agree, lots of mistakes from bad judgment to criminal behavior. Is your name in there?

@evan
Are we voting for what we think will happen or what we hope will happen?

@smallcircles @benpate @strypey @EUCommission @nlnet good reflection. If things here look copy pasted from the corporate captured web, it might be because the same people keep making the same limiting decisions with their cronies all the way since https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSocial

Big believer in Conways Law and also moreso

“the future lies with the youth”

@aeva @evan My point is mainly that open source and tech startup folks are, in this era, the equivalent of composers, painters, and sculptors in Renaissance Italy, and folks like Epstein fancy themselves as this era's Medicis - "collecting" the future innovators and building the future by proxy.

@aeva @evan Nicholas Negroponte was the instigator and leader of One Laptop Per Child - several Red Hat and GNOME friends worked on that initiative. As you say, Joi Ito was one of the initiators of Creative Commons, and was also a Friend Of O'Reilly. Dean Kamen invented the Segway, made money from medical device innovations, and a founder of FIRST, the largest robotics organization for high school kids in the USA, covering three competitions - the FIRST Lego League (targeting elementary andmiddle school), FIRST Tech Challenge (middle and high school) and FIRST Robotics Competition (high school) - which my son is involved in.

Sorry, @evan, I did see your other posts & I agree completely. The email archive has, as you say, random notices from platforms like Twitter, etc.. I saw much of that serendipitously when I was searching for the guilty.
With the 2020 MIT report now supplemented with Epstein's own records, I'm convinced everyone of authority at MIT knew & ignored. Minsky's maybe the only rape suspect, but all of MIT's CSAIL helped Epstein's image makeover & Sussman went far across the line in going to the island.

@halcy I left out military conquest!

@jorge is it wishful thinking to wonder how it will end?

Do you think it will never end?

@evan Mr. 34-or-how-many-i-lost-count Felonies became president and has remained one for over a year with no end in sight, so... yeah, I don't have much hope
