#Buddhism Quote + #AltText for Pic ➡️ ...
" You might be tempted to avoid the messiness of daily living for the tranquility of stillness and peacefulness. This of course would be an attachment to stillness, and like any strong attachment, it leads to delusion. It arrests development and short-circuits the cultivation of wisdom. "
— Jon Kabat-Zinn #Buddhist #Quote #JonKabatZinn #Wisdom
#FreeSchool summary = Attachment (even to #stillness) can lead to #delusion... or maybe just #delay.

#SciOp & #CoLiberation (not just Techies but everyone)
"... it requires a design process in which many actors can participate - people with technical expertise, as well as those with lived expertise, domain expertise, organizing expertise, and #community #history expertise. It also means shifting the overarching goal of such #projects from “doing good with #data” to designing for co-#liberation. [...]
Rather than framing acts of #technical #service as benevolence or #charity, the goal of co-liberation requires that those technical workers acknowledge that they are engaged in a struggle for their own #liberation as well, even and especially when they are members of dominant groups."
#Quote — Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren F. Klein, Data Feminism

Social media is an "unhealthy online environment" 🤒
The problem lies with the business model that underpins these monopolistic platforms: they promote ragebait to rake in the money.
ORG's @jim told BBC News what needs to be done:
✅ Competition
✅ User empowerment
✅ Decentralisation

Government #Paradox = We need them but don't want them...
We Need #government because people unchecked will do #vil,
but...
#Government is made of mostly unchecked or evil people.
Playing the same game keeps making it worse! #Chess
(but take it as a time-passing instead and it's "ok" to lose)
#Google search results = confirmation bias / it's own agenda ?
Searching for the truth using #Google might have confirmation bias of sorts and it's own version of the truth ?
🔍 Try #Searx https://searx.org/
- I use don't use Google directly.
🔎 Try Searx.org #searchengine #privacy #security #engine
#Google's version might just support itself and have #search results based on what google knows about you... ?
Because #GoogleKnows your #bias and existing search #tree history...
( #confirmationbias https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=confirmation+bias )
"...when you search for something to agree with your biases..." it might just give you what you want...

Google search = Google's version of the Truth ? or supports your existing #bias from your search #history...? Just maybe...
Wouldn't be surprised these tools have their own #politics and #agenda.... Try https://searx.org/

#FreeSchool (hashtag) ⬅️ for #Notes #Quotes #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites #Fediverse people. Audio conversations welcome,
Someone who #Cares for people and planet, developing them into good things.
That's my life in a few keywords and sentences.
Intelligence for me now is measured now by those who can work together and actually help people individually develop and grow. Else we fail.
RIGHT NOW... Low Intelligence is a problem / Helping Others is a problem (on Fediverse where it could be easy).
RIGHT NOW... Dreaming increasingly together...?
I'm defined today and tomorrow by my realistic dreams. Together we can measurably do things and talk to discover existing solution / problems that we can solve again and again individually and then more and more as a crowd-solution snowballing 🌨️ 🏂 ... #FreeSchool
Audio conversations welcome, feel free to ask.
I use simple chat in browser called Jitsi (any device - no software - just 3 clicks and in!). A basic zoom-style clone called #Jitsi is opensource needs just a browser! No install, No google account.
Privacy and Non-corporate minded.
#FreeSchool hashtag for my collected gems and alignments.
Let's chat soon. We need to care about we do daily and others to also care else we are isolated. No other way around it but talk...
