schestowitz-TR | got camelcase | May 20 07:27 |
schestowitz-TR | btw, seems like sam's feed at itwire is no longer filled with the obligatory webspam ('articles') and | May 20 07:27 |
schestowitz-TR | is just his own | May 20 07:27 |
schestowitz-TR | based on the past week | May 20 07:27 |
Techrights-sec | gm | May 20 07:29 |
Techrights-sec | it's still worth dealing with ITWire manually since although it does have | May 20 07:29 |
Techrights-sec | some really good articles from time to time, for the most part it is tri[e | May 20 07:29 |
Techrights-sec | ^trip | May 20 07:29 |
Techrights-sec | ^tripe | May 20 07:29 |
schestowitz-TR | yes, I associate them with the tripe | May 20 07:29 |
schestowitz-TR | that's their "business model" | May 20 07:29 |
Techrights-sec | though as mentioned several times Sam's articles tend to be good and then | May 20 07:50 |
Techrights-sec | there are occasionally others too | May 20 07:50 |
schestowitz-TR | Curious: how do you feel since stoping to scroll through mastodon blobs looking for "toots"? | May 20 08:06 |
schestowitz-TR | "algo speak" is partly outrage speak or clickbair speak | May 20 08:06 |
schestowitz-TR | looking to get noticed in a sea of billions of daily mindfarts with little actual contribution to human | May 20 08:06 |
schestowitz-TR | knowledge | May 20 08:06 |
Techrights-sec | in a word, better | May 20 08:07 |
Techrights-sec | less stress | May 20 08:07 |
Techrights-sec | I still scan for URLs abotu once a week but if the entry does not have an | May 20 08:07 |
Techrights-sec | obvious URL, I don't read it | May 20 08:07 |
schestowitz-TR | No URL -> no reference -> usually just some random though that cannot be verified | May 20 08:08 |
schestowitz-TR | "number of likes" does not mean likelihood of accuracy | May 20 08:08 |
schestowitz-TR | sometimes it means the opposite | May 20 08:08 |
schestowitz-TR | it is "outrage score | May 20 08:08 |
Techrights-sec | exactly | May 20 08:08 |
Techrights-sec | yes "engagement" does not relate to veracity or relevance. | May 20 08:08 |
schestowitz-TR | "not that I got your attention," says the unlothed person... | May 20 08:09 |
Techrights-sec | I should probably check sometime in the next few days, but really don't feel | May 20 08:10 |
Techrights-sec | like wasting that time | May 20 08:10 |
schestowitz-TR | in 2009-2010 we had an identi.ca bot in IRC | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | It wouls coop up people like Moody and Greve | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | Then, when posting IRC logs (we've done this since 2008) I'd click on LINKS they post | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | and consider them as RSS feed equivalent | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | but I found that overwhelming at times | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | as that was a lot of links, even back then | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | but curated at least | May 20 08:12 |
Techrights-sec | Glyn Moody writes quite well and always on relevant and interesting topics | May 20 08:12 |
Techrights-sec | but does not have a central place where one can find what he has written | May 20 08:12 |
Techrights-sec | so it is hard to know where and when he has written | May 20 08:12 |
schestowitz-TR | Open dot dot dot... | May 20 08:13 |
schestowitz-TR | He used to post there a daily roundup of his quips, or maybe that's a seperate blog | May 20 08:13 |
schestowitz-TR | If the latter, I'm quit sure he stopped maintaining it >5 years ago | May 20 08:13 |
schestowitz-TR | he never had a site of his own, AFAIK | May 20 08:13 |
schestowitz-TR | GoogleSpot was the cloest thing | May 20 08:13 |
Techrights-sec | https://opendotdotdot.blogspot.com | May 20 08:14 |

schestowitz-TR | He lost Gulag+ | May 20 08:15 |
schestowitz-TR | He lost Diaspora | May 20 08:15 |
schestowitz-TR | He lost Identica | May 20 08:15 |
schestowitz-TR | Musk Social is left | May 20 08:15 |
schestowitz-TR | and maybe some "toot" thing... | May 20 08:15 |

schestowitz-TR | fyi suepo is escalating | May 20 08:19 |
schestowitz-TR | and will enhance the actions | May 20 08:19 |
schestowitz-TR | it's confirmed to me techrights caused the ourage | May 20 08:19 |
schestowitz-TR | I put some details in irc | May 20 08:19 |
schestowitz-TR | not in the blog | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz-TR | boasting/bragging is a weakness | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz-TR | and a risk/liability | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz-TR | so I left that out of last night's articles | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz-TR | eventually it's team upc losing its cool | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz-TR | and looking like a bunch of ogres | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz | " The inflation in the Netherlands of 11.2% and in Germany of 7.8% over the last 12 months accounts for far more than a double step reward (on average 1 step equals 2%). Less than 60% of eligible staff (actually less than 50% of all staff) may receive a single step let alone a double step this year. This is the worst year in the career of EPO staff which comes at the time when staff worked diligently through the worst pandemic of the century and | May 20 08:20 |
schestowitz | the worst inflation since the EPO inception." | May 20 08:20 |
Techrights-sec | ack | May 20 08:23 |
Techrights-sec | Does SUEPO have a concise summary for outsiders on their site, yet? | May 20 08:23 |
Techrights-sec | It would go a long way to be able to point to the original source from time | May 20 08:23 |
Techrights-sec | to time. | May 20 08:23 |
schestowitz-TR | the site helps the union communicate with its members | May 20 08:24 |
Techrights-sec | yes but there ought to be at least a little outward communication | May 20 08:32 |

Techrights-sec | by the way, Glyn's books have been quite good, | May 20 08:40 |
Techrights-sec | "Digital Code of Life: How Bioinformatics is Revolutionizing Science, Medicine, and Business by Glyn Moody" was hard to get aho | May 20 08:40 |
Techrights-sec | ld of though | May 20 08:40 |
Techrights-sec | Apparently there is not much market for books any more | May 20 08:40 |
Techrights-sec | "Rebel Code: Linux and the Open Source Revolution" is more relevant than ever | May 20 08:40 |

Techrights-sec | Must be ove a decade. | May 20 08:41 |
Techrights-sec | A couple of years ago I helped one kid find a book for a book report. He wa | May 20 08:41 |
Techrights-sec | was supposedly a top student but whined and struggled with a ~ 100 page | May 20 08:41 |

Techrights-sec | over the past few weeks there have been several links from ec.europa.eu | May 20 10:39 |
Techrights-sec | regarding patents and,potentially, software patents, if you are looking for | May 20 10:39 |
Techrights-sec | such material, those can warrant a close look | May 20 10:39 |

Techrights-sec | Apple, for example, submitted 81 pages of comment pushing for patents and such | May 20 10:44 |
schestowitz-TR | well, apple is a european company based in reland :-) | May 20 10:44 |
Techrights-sec | :( | May 20 10:45 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe they should take the demands/advice of yandex and huawei too | May 20 10:45 |
Techrights-sec | it would be about as inappropriate | May 20 10:50 |
Techrights-sec | Unfortunately there is rarely any coverage for these consultations unless, | May 20 10:50 |
Techrights-sec | like this time, it happens after the period has closed | May 20 10:50 |
schestowitz-TR | tickbox-checking exercise | May 20 10:51 |
schestowitz-TR | "we did open up to feedback" | May 20 10:51 |

schestowitz-TR | draft | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | so you think the term "Monpoly Tony" is | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | 1) polite enough | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | 2) informative enough | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | 3) effective | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | ? | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | Adopting it would // | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | a) be stupid | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | b) become catchy | May 20 11:42 |
schestowitz-TR | ? | May 20 11:42 |
Techrights-sec | it'd be too unclear about to whom it refers, best stick with the given name | May 20 11:48 |
Techrights-sec | it also may help in "SEO" to associate his name with TR articles ... | May 20 11:48 |
schestowitz-TR | first name or last name? | May 20 11:48 |
schestowitz-TR | "Monpopoly Antonia Campinos" is too long and not catchy | May 20 11:48 |
schestowitz-TR | I will link the name Monopoly Tony o his wiki page | May 20 11:48 |
schestowitz-TR | Monopoly Tony has a "sing" to it | May 20 11:48 |
Techrights-sec | both | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | right but an eptithet might not be necessary | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | if you introduce him in each article as 'Antonio "Mr Monopoly" Campinos' then | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | for the rest of that current article you can simply refer to him as | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | Mr Mono-oloy, but it is important that the full name show up at least once | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | in each relevant article | May 20 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | Ok, the headline says his name | May 20 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | and then the eptithet links to a wiki page s he loatghes deeply | May 20 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | also, the target audience here knows who that us | May 20 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | *is | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | that's ok, the repetition of the full name is important for later and for | May 20 11:50 |
Techrights-sec | newcomers and for the search engines, so three reasons IMHO | May 20 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | makes sense! | May 20 11:51 |
schestowitz-TR | I notice terms we use are adopted inside and outside EPO, over time... | May 20 11:51 |
Techrights-sec | excellent | May 20 12:21 |

Techrights-sec | yes javascript is a major downside to his work | May 20 15:37 |

Techrights-sec | timbl rendered himself mostly irrelevant as far as the future goes when | May 20 15:40 |

schestowitz-TR | Tim's Rusty Linus moment | May 20 15:41 |
schestowitz-TR | or some other analogies | May 20 15:41 |
schestowitz-TR | or RMS going to lecture... Microsoft, only to be thrown under a bus to distract from BillG 2 weeks later? | May 20 15:41 |
schestowitz-TR | psydroid2: solid went nowhere | May 20 15:41 |
schestowitz-TR | except Microsoft | May 20 15:41 |
psydroid2 | schestowitz-TR, I saw him do his presentation at FOSDEM 19, but halfway through someone from IRC came to meet me and we left | May 20 15:42 |
Techrights-sec | I still don't get what went on with RMS that he would have such exceedingly bad | May 20 15:42 |
Techrights-sec | jusdgment as to visit Redmond | May 20 15:42 |
psydroid2 | it's not that I was overly interested in it, it just gave me a chuckle that he was even trying to peddle this lame duck | May 20 15:43 |
schestowitz-TR | I asked him to write to explain | May 20 15:43 |
schestowitz-TR | which he did | May 20 15:43 |
schestowitz-TR | and then the storm started | May 20 15:43 |
schestowitz-TR | so he mostly vanished | May 20 15:43 |
Techrights-sec | so maybe he will never bring it up again? | May 20 15:44 |
Techrights-sec | too bad, others could learn from that mistake if more details were known | May 20 15:44 |
schestowitz-TR | psydroid2: I know very little about it | May 20 15:45 |
schestowitz-TR | except Microsoft shit+JS shit | May 20 15:45 |
psydroid2 | schestowitz-TR, it just sounded so lame | May 20 15:45 |
schestowitz-TR | and he was helping DRM agenda around that time | May 20 15:45 |
schestowitz-TR | a senior moment | May 20 15:45 |
psydroid2 | as if he was trying to keep people onboard | May 20 15:45 |
psydroid2 | rather than suggesting a way out of the mess | May 20 15:45 |
psydroid2 | I would not trust this guy with anything ever again | May 20 15:46 |
Techrights-sec | I see the two posts on market share in Turkey | May 20 15:46 |
Techrights-sec | It would help if there were a link from the statement that school migratinos | May 20 15:46 |
Techrights-sec | play a large role in the numbers | May 20 15:46 |
schestowitz-TR | the statements would not be in englisha dn in fact english-speaking media totally ignored all this | May 20 15:47 |
schestowitz-TR | I can guess why | May 20 15:47 |
schestowitz-TR | you can too | May 20 15:47 |
Techrights-sec | yes AFAIK similar happened in Spain, starting with Extremadura. The mainstream | May 20 15:47 |

schestowitz-TR | the nature of media manipulation | May 20 15:51 |
schestowitz-TR | a) microsoft holes blamed on victims and attackers | May 20 15:51 |
schestowitz-TR | b) billg is vaccine expert, not profiteers, and his haters are all just "antiovaxxer" and jealous | May 20 15:51 |
psydroid2 | fortunately English isn't the only language spoken in the world | May 20 15:52 |
psydroid2 | and I don't think it's fair to expect people from each country to write in a foreign language to reach a wider audience | May 20 15:53 |
Techrights-sec | :) | May 20 15:54 |
schestowitz-TR | IIRC, Spanish is spoke in most countries | May 20 15:59 |
schestowitz-TR | maybe Arabic by most people | May 20 15:59 |
schestowitz-TR | if not Mandarin | May 20 15:59 |
schestowitz-TR | English spoken as a secondary language in many places | May 20 15:59 |
