I see a lot of new faces these days. Hi!
Allow me to briefly introduce myself: I research the forces that shape digital #journalism (tech/biz/data/etc). I have a book on #podcasting coming out. On this platform, I am mainly professional, but I might sometimes post about running or pop culture.

Der er en tendens til at betragte de seneste amerikanske trusler om indrejseforbud og digital eksklusion af europæiske politikere, embedsfolk og civilsamfundsaktører som en enkeltstående diplomatisk konflikt. Det er en fejl.
Det, vi ser, er noget mere grundlæggende:

A secret of investigative reporting is that you often get entire stories out of the dumb stuff: people who redact wrong, people who leave their Venmo on public, people who accidentally cc you on the email to their lawyers, people who put you in the bombing group chat, etc
I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

On another note: Jeg har nu doneret over 5400 kr til velgørenhed ved at sætte vintage Lego i stand og sælge til samlere. Følg mit projekt her: vintage-lego.netlify.app
I'm having fun buying old lots, organizing, building and restoring old sets. I prefer sets from my childhood in the 80's and 90's. Once built and fully restored with missing bricks, I sell the complete sets again and donate the profit for charity.

Uheld på uheld på uheld i trafikken i dag. Vi trænger vist allesammen til ferie (og reelle alternativer til bilerne). Pas godt på derude, du skal nok nå det.

Drop fyrværkeri i år og donér dit fyrværkeri-budget til Den danske Ukraine komité.
Danskere bruger 500 mio kroner på fyrværkeri. Ukraine har mere brug for krudt end din nytårsaften.
Så skån veteraner, dyr og naturen og støt Ukraine!

It still matters if things are real
In the comments, people note that it’s AI and the poster responds that he just doesn’t care.
That’s an easy block.

[off-topic] Easily one of the most emotional moments of Christmas.
In case you missed it.
Holy moly, do people still think the U.S. is an ally of Europe? It is now an officially stated foreign policy goal to undermine the EU and centrist European governments that don't ideologically align with MAGA.
Europeans are waking up this morning to find the new US National Security Strategy (quietly) released. And what it has to say on Europe could not be clearer. On the „stark prospect of civilizations erasure“ for example. 👇

The point I make in classes is that with tech platforms playing sizable role in distribution of media in 2025, they have leverage and can be a chokepoint. And the worrying thing about tech companies making/owning media creation is we are marrying distribution oligopoly to creative oligopoly.

Netflix’s acquisition of WB becomes my new exhibit A for teaching industry oriented grad students why you NEVER put predictions in scholarship (or assume anything as it is at a given historical moment means something like that will never happen)

While I don't encounter this level of student disconnection, parts of this thread certainly resonate with me.
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.
