Words now represent nothing. The absurd prevails, but will it last?
“The centipede represents technology - both the life giving-force and the dangers of it, the juxtaposition of dark and light.”

“… even pushing aside copyright hurdles or the logistics surrounding competing game companies dismantling years’ worth of code to integrate brand-friendly cosmetics, there is one glaring issue: The target audience doesn’t seem into it.”

“The things that make the promise of a metaverse intriguing, for the most part, already exist in online games. And much of what remains of that promise is unappealing, impossible, or greedy.”

Glad for the reminder that what we consider “public space” on the web is more of the “shopping mall” kind, less of the “town square” kind: it supports exchange out *in public*, but does not belong to *the public*. Both are useful.

Then we can argue about which one we need most.

Το αποτέλεσμα είναι να δημιουργείται ασάφεια, και να επικρατεί το ξύλινο και η κυνικότητα.

Η φαινομενική και υπαρκτή αδιαφάνεια στη λήψη αποφάσεων, στην ουσιαστική ενημέρωση είναι μια ήττα για την ορθολογική πολιτική. Σωστό να αλλάζουν οι οδηγίες, γιατί τα δεδομένα αλλάζουν. Είναι καλύτερο για τη δημοκρατία τα δεδομένα να είναι δημόσια, ώστε να κρίνονται οι πολιτικές.
