Glad to hear @MathiasCormann, @OECD Secretary-General and @NadiaCalvino, digital minster of Spain stressing the need for a "human-centric #DigitalTransformation" during the opening session of the Digital Ministerial in the Canary Islands. #OECDdigital oecd-events.org/digital-minist…
The Digital Minister of Ukraine is addressing the #OECDdigital conference via prerecorded video (from the "world capital of freedom"). He described how Ukraine set out to be a "digital tiger" and had to build a "digital war machine". #eGovernment Fighting #RussianBarbarians.
Glad to hear the rep from the European Union state that that governments should not seek to "control" technology but to foster abd apply it. He also mentioned that tomorrow in Brussels, the European Union wl sign a declaration of "digital rights". Could be helpful. @ViolaRoberto

We start with a talk by SFI President David Krakauer:
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"I'm going to pick on economics, because we like to do that at SFI. 'Ooh, look at that cover! So techy. Global, heat maps...' But here's 'Networks' [in the textbook]. THAT'S IT. Here's '#ComplexityEconomics.' NOTHING."

Yes a thousand times yes. I've gotten pushback from men (and women) because I started using Dr. In my email signature & on Twitter a couple years back. I spent 8 years earning a PhD, which meant passing 2 comprehensive field exams, learning Arabic, and writing a dissertation.
I spent years on the ground and helped pioneer virtual ethnography empirically researching the political impact of blogging & social media in Egypt beg. in 2006, contributing theoretical understanding of social movements, citizen journalism and technology. While working full time
My husband was actually the one who pushed me to lay claim in the public sphere to my hard earned title. And in an era of #FakeNews why wouldn't we make use of markers of expertise like this? Obviously not a fail safe and recognizing there are other forms of knowledge & expertise

1/n #YES bank, some thoughts and views.
This is a communication failure. You don't impose a moratorium on a major bank without a clear end game.
Markets hate uncertainty.
It will create panic. RBI's goal should be to not create unnecessary panic.

50k withdrawal restriction is presumably to prevent run on the bank and buy time.
Depositors don't like arbitrary restrictions. Every depositor will withdraw 50k.
It will create a mini-run. I hope they are prepared.

3/n #WhatShouldTheyHaveDone
Get everyone in a room, and come out only with a complete solution (bailout, buyout whatever).
Has been done before by Volcker and JPMorgan.
Cannot play this out in the public domain over days. Crucial trust is lost in the banking system.

1. @ExtinctionR Having looked at some of your policies & grievances my advice to you as a scientist is to do your own research before you jump to conclusions; resist the temptation to go down a EnergyDeadEnd path before really appreciating after years of research life's realities
2. @ExtinctionR scenario has come about through a few scientists exaggerating #ClimateChange which is a natural phenomena that has occurred since Earth had an atmosphere; one of the variables keeping us warm is yes photosynthesising #TraceGas #CO2 as well as water vapour (clouds)
3. @ExtinctionR Earth's CO2 levels vary over time & currently only 0.041% or to make it sound larger 410ppm on average; at levels below 200ppm to 150ppm #photosynthesis ceases & all life relying on plants will die off.
Many other variables are involved with #ClimateChange e.g.Sun

"The real story is much, much more urgent". I'm ready to watch @dwallacewells speaking on "A story of the future of earth" at #RSAclimate. Starting urgently! thersa.org/events/2019/02…
"Thanks for giving up your lunchtime to attend this event", says @fionaharvey as she introduces #RSAclimate. "Quite how many more lunchtimes we'll have is something we might ask @dwallacewells later", she added, deadpan
Far more important than steps to minimise our personal carbon footprint (e.g taking fewer flights), if we care about preventing adverse climate change, is to vote for political leaders deeply committed to effective policy change - @dwallacewells at #RSAclimate
