- kudos:Ça fait quelques semaines que j’ai du mal à finir les épisodes de Gare à vous, mais celle-co m’a beaucoup plu. J’ai de bons souvenirs de deux petites visites à Gruyères; par contre, je ne connaissais pas bien Giger, et j’ai beaucoup aimé corriger cette faute. lien pour “Un extra-terrestre dans le château du train qui sent des pieds!

🔗 linkblog: my thoughts on 'Addison Graham: Latter-day Saints should not admire Hungary’s ‘family values’'

🔗 linkblog: my thoughts on 'Publisher Wants $2,500 To Allow Academics To Post Their Own Manuscript To Their Own Repository | Techdirt'
- kudos:I bristle a bit at Moody’s suggestion that academics are dumb for signing over copyright—it’s dumb that we have to, but there are systemic issues at play here. Yet, especially now with tenure taken care of, I do wonder if we consent too readily to the system. link to “Publisher Wants $2,500 To Allow Academics To Post Their Own Manuscript To Their Own Repository | Techdirt”

🔗 linkblog: my thoughts on 'Reddit will no longer allow users to opt out of ad personalization - The Verge'
- kudos:It baffles me when platforms think “oh, but we can help you see more relevant ads” is a selling point. Also, “not sharing data outside Reddit” doesn’t help either—it’s still an invasion of privacy. link to “Reddit will no longer allow users to opt out of ad personalization - The Verge”
🔗 linkblog: my thoughts on 'Leveling the technological playing field with Apple | UKNow'
- kudos:Look, I’m glad my university is aware of and responding to the digital divide, but I’d appreciate a more critical treatment of what we’re doing. This sounds almost like ad copy for Apple, and it’s falling into a lot of tired edtech tropes about how technology must necessarily improve learning. link to “Leveling the technological playing field with Apple | UKNow”
🔗 linkblog: my thoughts on 'President of Hungary Discusses Faith and Family Values at BYU'
- kudos:Look, I don’t know much about Hungarian politics, but it seems to me that it would take a hell of a lot of self-confidence to brag about an ally of Viktor Orbán visiting BYU. This feels like wading into the culture wars in a way that the LDS Church usually tries to avoid. link to “President of Hungary Discusses Faith and Family Values at BYU”

Something somewhere has borked, and now my Siri Shortcuts for near-effortless posting to Hugo from my phone are producing dumpster fire text files filled with URL encoded characters instead of the real things. Gonna have to fix this, but not looking forward to it.
