Parteireform?! Einerseits ein bisschen seltsamer Zeitpunkt dafür, gibt ja gerade durchaus inhaltlich relevante Fragen der Politik, andererseits beim starken Wachstum von Bündnis 90/Die Grünen nachvollziehbar, dass an einigen Stellen nachgesteuert werden soll.
Ich habe mir die Vorschläge des Bundesvorstands, die jetzt zur Urabstimmung gestellt werden sollen, mal angeschaut und erste Eindrücke aufgeschrieben.

#AuchDasNoch? #RicardaLang zu #SocialMedia-Beeinflussung: "Wir sind nicht wehrlos"
RE: https://hachyderm.io/@thomasfuchs/115766665024442971
The author (Edmund Berkeley) is the co-founder of the ACM (I’m a member), he definitely did some other good stuff like being a peace activist and coming up with concepts that highly influenced the personal computer revolution 25–30 years after the book was published.
But the extreme toxic positivity about computers that “will solve all social problems” because “humans are so irrational” remains a huge problem with AI stans since the late 1940s.

Ballot Box Scotland 2025 in review: council by-elections
"remember the most important aspect of STV – that the nice simple language used for FPTP of “gain/loss/hold” isn’t as applicable here. Whoever vacated one of three or four seats is not always the same as the overall winner at the last election. It’s entirely possible for the vacating party, the party that had a first preference lead, and the party that would have won a single seat election ... to all be different"
