Building a PDP11/70. These were among the computers that made the first network connections.

Cannot wait to network and compute how it was originally intended!

#vintagecomputing #infrastructuralista

(With the amazing kit by:

Look at all those beautiful components! Image
Soldered GPIO connector on the wrong side of the board 😭😭

Guess this will be a crash course in desoldering. ImageImage
It took me four hours, but it worked!

Now putting GPIO holder back together and resolder it on the other side 🤓🤣

I never thought I'd be able to concentrate on something so small for so long ! ImageImage
Most lights are working! Image
Correction: ALL LIGHTS ARE WORKING !

Test #1 :: SUCCESS Image
Dancing lights!!

Test #2 :: SUCCESS
Assembled!
That's it for today. Tomorrow resoldering of some buttons and then some old school networking!

🤓😴💤
🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩
Resoldered all flip buttons and some loose connectors.

Put back together. Now everything is working.

Shall I load the DECnet or TCP/IP protocol stack? ImageImage
'for the next step, transform the octal value to a binary value'

🤣🤣🤣

Who is the computer here, you or me?
What OS should my PDP11/7 run?
🤣🤣🤣 already ran into a Y2K problem 🤣🤣🤣 Image
Reverse knight rider, but as bootloader
There. Is. A. Live. Network. Of. DECnet. users.

Last days I have been researching the European draft law on artificial intelligence. I am not an expert on AI, but I do know a thing or two about standards, and standard-setting features prominently in this act!
What the European Commission proposes is that standards will be created for AI by European Standards Organisations. AI implementations that are compliant with the standards are legal in the EU.
There are only three European Standards Organisations, namely CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI. AI standards-setting would probably take place within CEN/CENELEC's Joint Technical Committee (JTC) 21 ‘Artificial Intelligence’.

Procrastination is a capitalist frame we should overcome.

Just write when it works. Increasing productivity is not the solution to our problems.
We need to produce less and consume less.

We are destroying ourselves and our planet just to live up to a market logic that no one fully comprehends.
Also, stop comparing yourself to others. It simply does not help anyone.

Life is not a competition. If we need anything, it is more collaboration, compassion, and solidarity.

Happy to announce my dissertation is available online:

Wired Norms - Inscription, resistance, and subversion in the governance of the Internet infrastructure

dare.uva.nl/search?identif…
In this work, I examine the role of norms in the governance of the Internet infrastructure.

Based on extensive qualitative and quantitative analysis of different Internet governance bodies, namely @ICANN, @ietf, and @ripencc, I developed a theory.
Norms only get introduced and maintained in the governance of the Internet infrastructure if they:
1) Are translated to the social worlds of the significantly represented groups
2) Increase voluntary interconnection and interoperation between independents networks.

Another new draft in response to the discussion of the removal of racist language in the IETF.

This new draft practically says: when there is contention about whether a concept is racist or not, the IETF should err on the side of racism and the status quo. Image
The draft asserts that this would be to the benefit of the Internet community.

It also continues to state that removing racist language might be too much work, and would not really contribute much. It's more important to not disrupt the current ways of working. Image
Also, the draft says that no one should be forced to remove racists language because, again, it would disrupt normal work.

When @MalloryKnodel and I started this work, we thought removing racist language would be kind of a no-brainer.

Am not sure why one needs a souvereignty politics to develop a European normative technological system.

Influential normative systems are aimed a norm setting and dissemination, not isolation.
I think a European normative technical system should seek to leverage the human right to science and with that overcome the patents and copyrights of the infrastructure of the information society.
This would leverage the knowledge production of universities, and re-involve public research institutions with the development of the Internet as public utility.

Most relevant and interesting changes in the Internet infrastructure happen outside of Internet governance and standards bodies.

Internet governance institutions facilitate interconnection and interoperation between transnational corporations, norm contestation happens outside.
Otoh, Internet governance institutions are a locuspoint for issues. They are the watering holes for a huge distributed infrastructure.

Because of the consensus model, existing interests in the current ordering, and backward compatibility, there is a significant amount of stasis.
I think that governance bodies should engage with value contestation, but this is not in the primary interests of transnational corporations.

Since corporations are structurally the most significantly represented group in every governance body, this change is unlikely to happen
