I believe in doing good. I believe in doing things MOSTLY in those areas which most impact our democracy. In our modern world, right now, business affects democracy much more than politics ever did. In liberal discourse, whether neo- or otherwise, a Good Democracy – as per Peter Levine’s eternal tension between INCLUSIVENESS and EFFICIENCY – requires that the public sphere be fair and transparent, … Continue reading “reading between lines and principles”
I was waiting for a decision to be made on a contract with government today. I have been told the decision is delayed. I am looking to move to a Plan B. My project is a simple front-facing rail-network app with AI capability. I have begun to examine three markets to parallel commercialise, bespoke develop, and white label. I would be looking at the US, … Continue reading “men of white upper-middle cage.”
I posted the text at the end of this post, with the accompanying photos, at my personal Instagram some moments ago. It continues my investigations, ad hoc it must be admitted, into the utility of using omen-reading as a way of – to use a #siliconvalley term I normally abhor – lifehacking our future-presents. In my case, finding meaning in my environment, tricksy meaning, nominally … Continue reading omens, and future-presents for all
“And this real we have called karma is a mathematical fact.” – a short #video and #essay of an #autoethnographic nature I woke up in a really good mood today. Rain usually makes me grouchy, unless that close mist on mountain trail, in the company of beautiful person, and on the way to incomparable meal. The morning isn’t quite yet that case, but I feel … Continue reading on karma, dna, and maths
#pride2019🌈 #liverpool snapped #justthen cc @lushliverpoolspa @lush You know why I find it so easy to empathise with #pride EVERY year; every SECOND of every year … not only because it delivers natural justice; not only because above all we are humans; not just because of our closeness which never separates; not simply because our separations are never so large as we think … in … Continue reading “all are welcome always” – a short #ar #video
#magiCK4everyone #everywhere #justnow #love #pride🌈 #neverbeforeafall #noprejudice #justliberty #justlife I guess it is a bit mad of me to propose this, but I propose it in full knowledge of the consequences. And of not doing as I suggest, just as much as this proposing we should. I used to tell my children: “If you don’t want to get on with each other, there is nothing … Continue reading “let’s go back in time to go forwards in life” – a short #video
We are what we are. But also, what they want us to be. Two of the biggest industries, the most creative, are the advertising and marketing industries. They shape our worlds in such deep and sophisticated, such embedded, ways. To say you own your anger, to say you are what you are, to say if you are successful it is because of you, and if … Continue reading even so, i believe in human
I recently touched on the possibility that John Forbes Nash Jr was not possessed of a debilitating mental illness, but rather of a cruelly misunderstood skillset. Here, now, the assumptions which lead me to come to such conclusions: I assume Nash had a super-skill, which many persons who are diagnosed with schizophrenia (in particular, paranoid) share. I am not suggesting he detected Russians that no … Continue reading vindicating john nash (ii): imagine a world where data became unnecessary
I was looking at these two pics for a bit. I was looking at others too, but couldn’t make head or tail of them. But these I could. This kind of game helps me read my mind. That’s what I want to achieve with human/machine, AR/AI collaboration. Help people like me – ie all of us – to read our own minds, empoweringly. So the … Continue reading my dream: vindicate john nash
I was born in 1962 on Bloomsday, in the city of Oxford. I have loved my country since then; as people in family inevitably do. Fiercely critical in the face of careless forget. Fiercely protective in the face of aggressive beget. For a time, about 54 years from birth, I didn’t really know who I was. My parents played emotional football with me: between two … Continue reading why i love my country (or the glories of the fifth estate)
Let’s carry out a thought experiment. Most people who view TV will have happened upon the series “Person of Interest”. A supercomputer is programmed to predict terrorist acts. Other crimes are ignored by its government client as irrelevant. However, the computer acquires a sense of right and wrong: the series’ real person of interest becomes this battling with nascent conscience. “To be or not to … Continue reading “an assumption: nothing in tech is new” #thoughtexperiment
(sighs) You insist on addressing me via nudge and wink. You complain that I keep on forcing everything back to square one. All you have to do if you want my engagement is to meet me face-to-face: that is to say, whoever you are, to come up to me in the street now, tell me “It was us”, and Bob’s your uncle … we can … Continue reading a rare (smorgasbord)
Oh feck! Were you really never you? All you ever wanted of my person being to lever me into becoming so obsessed by a project that I would turn into the kind of businessperson you desired of me? All it was? 11 just a figment of my inner self? Surely not. For in truth, even now, if you ask me to choose, I will think … Continue reading ¡mala leche!
I recently wrote some articles on what I called neo-terrorism, in this case on the individual. In my assessment, neo-terrorism of this nature involves the long-term tracking and gaslighting of concrete individuals and persons of interest: potential colleagues of course, but just as importantly potential opponents. It borders – where not becomes – grooming, in its affirmative: I have been subjected to it in both … Continue reading the politics of neo-terrorism
I previously touched on this story recently here. I have now been encouraged to reveal more of the situation as I understand it. The below is republished from my Instagram page, @mil_williams, with very few edits and none of deep substance. Comments are welcome, either from those in the know or not, if given in good faith. Part 1 T.R.A.C.K.: THE FIVE KEY PLAYERS IN … Continue reading the continuing story of a family’s conspiracy
