"We shouldn’t be surprised, because capturing communities with false promises only to sell us out is business as usual in the corporate internet. The founders handled the transition horribly, even by tech industry standards, and the pain and disruption it creates in our lives is real. Yet capital is constantly pulling the rug on online communities... For corporations, it’s always profits over people"

"The Seven Capital Sins of Open Science"
1. Worshiping the 'age factor'
2. Ignoring the value of data reuse and complexity
3. Disrespecting other disciplines
4. Publishing data without a supplementary paper
5. Creating and maintaining a nightmare for machines
6. Refusing to support investment in general infrastructure
7. Creating data without a FAIR and explicit data stewardship plan.

The Seven Capital Sins of Open Science
Years ago I made a set of cartoons depicting what I consider the seven major roadblocks to effectively realise an Open Science (rather FAIR science actually). These were distilled from my intensive work on the European Open Science Cloud, GO FAIR and also my presidency of CODATA.

Great reframing by Malcolm Harris at 52:50 here: When a capitalist says they need more profit to invest in something socially beneficial like housing, that profit is a fee they collect from the public, and a blockage that exists *because* there's a capitalist class that controls the money we need. That's really insightful and I'd never thought of it that way.

Actual Abundance w/ Isabella Weber, Malcolm Harris, Paul Williams
Featuring Isabella Weber, Malcolm Harris, and Paul Williams on Abundance. A debate and discussion of: the book; the discourse; the underlying economic and political questions of how we make the affordable housing, green energy, and fast trains we need; and how actual capitalist social relations appear to us in mystified form as “supply” and “demand.”
