In the EU, there's Chat Control under discussion and, in the US, they're birthing a dystopia as well. Authoritarianism is on the rise everywhere. Governments don't have our best interest at heart. What we need is tech savvy people capable of creating independent systems. fortune.com/2025/09/28/l...
Larry Ellison once predicted 'citizens will be on their best behavior' amid constant recording. Now his company will pay a key role in social media | Fortune

Germany is back to UNDECIDED. If Chat Control passes, this will be the end of the EU and the beginning of a police state, where privacy has no place and everybody must pay for the crimes of a few. #StopChatControl netzpolitik.org/2025/chatkon...

A few weird things that bring me happiness. One is the Chicago Manual of Style, with the Oxford commas, and non-spaced em dashes. The other is the beauty and simplicity of means, particularly the artithmetic and geometric means, where the first adds to divide, and the second multiplies to nth-root.

The end of the EU will begin with chat control. I'm sure autocracies are laughing at us. The "for your safety" argument is the way to turn a democracy into an authoritarian regime. If you don't want the European values to go down the drain and turn into a police state, go here: fightchatcontrol.eu

I just lost access to uBlock Origin and AutoPlayStopper on my Chrome installation. Up until now it had been possible to circumvent this, but not anymore. I was waiting for Brave to add tab group sync to the iOS app, but I might just switch before that happens. It's just freakin' annoying.

A lot has happened since COVID, which was also the time when I finished my PhD. Besides having tried (and failed) to build a startup, I also worked as a Senior Data Scientist for 1.5y. Now, I'm mostly adrift, in a kind of limbo, where I've been rejecting corporate work, while looking for a purpose.

We always miss people who passed away, but nothing hits as hard as the death of a close friend who died too young. Not a day goes by that I do not think about my friend, who has now been gone for nearly a year and a half. At least he's been spared the pain of living in such a dystopic world...

Here's an idea about tab groups and browsers. Just add a checkmark to bookmarks to make them dynamic and openable as a tab group. That will simplify the UI, and let us use all the bookmark features every browser already provides, to manage, export, import, and search bookmarks. cc/ @mozilla.org
