Do you think governments should provide a Universal Basic Income (UBI), a guaranteed monthly payment for everyone, regardless of employment status?

Interesting essay on the Latin American "post new left". A bit dewy eyed re Lula and Boric but some great points taking inspiration from Zapatists, piqueteros and the Landless Workers Movement (MST).

De la conquista a la imaginación colectiva: apologética colonial y la nueva izquierda latinoamericana
Ahí donde la derecha extrema vende miedo, la izquierda ensaya utopías concretas: democracia participativa, derechos colectivos, economías solidarias.

Imagine a world that we all control together, not controlled by oligarch or dictators, even indirectly. Imagine something truly collaborative. That world would be very different from our own. In some ways many of us could have a lot more opportunity. But in others, we would be restricted.
In such a world, we couldn't really have elite luxuries. Having such luxuries is only valuable so long as others do not.
> Unlike the vacuum cleaner, the radio, or the bicycle, which retain their use value when everyone has one, the car, like a villa by the sea, is only desirable and useful insofar as the masses don’t have one.
- The Social Ideology of the Motorcar
Imagine a world in which we think about luxury in a radically different way, not as something that only has value via exclusivity but something that enriches the lives of the owners more as more people have them.
What would living in such a world be like? Can you describe a day in your life?

Incoherent Imaging with Spatially Structured Quantum Probes
Incoherent imaging, including fluorescence and absorption microscopy, is often limited by weak signals and resolution constraints -- notoriously, Rayleigh's curse. We investigate how spatially structured quantum probes, combined with quantum detection strategies like spatial mode demultiplexing and photon counting, overcome these limitations. We propose a novel imaging protocol based on twin-beam echoes that maps the generalized incoherent-imaging model -- comprising both absorption and fluores…

Well that took a bit longer than I hoped thanks to some derps on my part, but I'm parsing incoming PCIe DLLPs and validating their checksums.
Next step will be to figure out that a type 0x40 DLLP with payload 074040 is actually an InitFC1-P DLLP for virtual circuit 0 for 29 headers and 1024 data bytes.
And do something useful with that information.

Incentivizing Time-Aware Fairness in Data Sharing
In collaborative data sharing and machine learning, multiple parties aggregate their data resources to train a machine learning model with better model performance. However, as the parties incur data collection costs, they are only willing to do so when guaranteed incentives, such as fairness and individual rationality. Existing frameworks assume that all parties join the collaboration simultaneously, which does not hold in many real-world scenarios. Due to the long processing time for data cle…
