Growing up in #Toronto, I held #NYC in awe. Per the joke, one Torontonian changes the lightbulb, the other goes New York to make sure lightbulbs are still in. I had a *great* place to stay in the City: my cousin Maxine's rent-controlled place in a midtown doorman building.

Max was impossibly glamorous: a perfectly coiffed office manager at Colgate-Palmolive who earned an anthropology degree at CUNY, volunteered at the Brooklyn Zoo, and knew every trick for getting cheap tickets for museums, galleries and shows.

In the #enshittification cycle, a #platform lures users with a good deal at first, then it lures business customers (advertisers, sellers, creators) by handing them the #surplus; finally, it takes all the surplus for itself, creating a pile of shit:

Tijd voor een #debunk van het artikel van #bbb in de @volkskrant

We starten met een binnenkomer die op rechts heel wat hartjes harder laat kloppen. Immigratie! Dat, terwijl de landbouw verantwoordelijk is voor een zeer substantieel deel van migratie. De kas (uw tomaten en komkommers), de volle grond (uw asperges en bloembollen) 2/

Project #Alvarium in a nutshell:

The edge remains a hostile environment for computing.

It implements a kind of #trust #sidecars for #data streams with trust metadata and confidence scores thus creating the data confidence fabric.
