In swiss german i use "inegeh" or "drilige" alot, meaning sth like "put yourself into" "immerse yourself"; i like it a alot. it works towards you being absorbed into the art vs you absorbing art

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Me: an unintended side-effect of employers doing everything in their limited powers to avoid being labeled as employers, I can not legally claim to be affiliated with any of them. I do however have the keys to a worryingly large nr of buildings

The crisis in tech is ultimately a crisis of intersubjectivity. I'll bang this drum forever but I consider AI tech of this sort as arising from the historical logics underpinning social media, attention economy, influencing, etc down the line instead of some new, bespoke thing all its own.

As Canada is learning (the hard way), the "art" of all of Trump's deals can be summed up in a single word: "renege": pluralistic.net/2026/07/22/t... 1/

A Canadian flag, its elements replaced with circuit boards. In the foreground, a bent-double, exhausted Uncle Sam trudges over rocky terrain, shlepping a giant sack on his back. Centered in the maple leaf is the word SORRY.

2 panel comic

Panel 1:
Three guys are sitting in a car. Blue Guy is driving, Purple Guy is in the passenger seat. Yellow Guy is in the back.

Blue Guy yells at Purple Guy “You ruined the WHOLE DAY. Why did you invite HIM?”
Purple Guy screams back “Well excuse me for not wanting our friend group to turn into an echo chamber!”

Panel 2:
A Log flume photo you get at theme parks. Blue, Purple, and Yellow Guy are sitting in the front of the log. There is a Nazi in the back to provide BALANCE and HEALTHY DISCOURSE

Not just rocket engineers, but this same mode of self-mythologizing is rampant in software engineering across the entire tech industry, deeply enculturated by the PR of the tech companies, VC and founder networks, etc. The virtuous pioneers of cyberspace.

And when i say "content" i don't mean it in this awful "everything is content now to be consumed" notion but in a "stuff that is actually contained within the boundaries of our game" notion. But maybe i should stop to use the word all along

"Expanding a boundary is the wrong phrase or framing. This is more like cooking or gardening. We do new things and experiment to find what we care about, to find new things to share with other people, and to remind ourselves that nothing is static and that we can define the future for ourselves."
