- I’ve only watched the last episode of this series, but it was quite reasonable (actually, parts of it were quite impressive - particularly the attitudes and knowledge of those in Japan), and I consider the series is well worth a look, for those who can. For details, see the trailer here, and reviews here, here, and here;
- My recent posts on my political blog:
- “From the news: on governance”; “From the news: on sovereignty - and an activism email”; “An activism email on the use of abusive ABA practices”; the genocide in Artsakh; news reports on the Voice, human rights, and [CW] the rebuilding of Ukraine;
- “The Stats Guy: How to view the world from multiple perspectives” https://thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2023/09/23/the-stats-guy-world-perspectives/ - discusses the “Thinking Quadrant”;
- a reputable organisation has tested a programme for detecting AI generated images, and found it seems to work well;
- “two memoirs of disability and family explore Deafness and dwarfism”;
- something I could not agree more with: “Personal Branding is the Enshitification of Humans” https://joanwestenberg.medium.com/personal-branding-is-the-enshitification-of-humans-ab0ae119c1bd;
- a consideration on friendship, and “Workplace loneliness is the modern pandemic damaging lives and hurting businesses” https://theconversation.com/workplace-loneliness-is-the-modern-pandemic-damaging-lives-and-hurting-businesses-213873;
- a site with some “old UFO photos” - not all necessarily legit (some definitely aren’t), but I suspect many are - especially those which predate World War (part) Two and those from non-English speaking nations;
- a thoughtful video on “effective altruism”;
- the problem of “vocational awe”;
- a video on “Autism ... in Older Autistic Adults (60+ Years Old)” - and see also this and this;
