After a headline that says I keep getting things right, I'm surely going to screw up something big soon. No amount of
is enough to ward that off
. That's fine. I'm not a futurist. We should strive for deep & complex analyses, not nods to betting markets.https://twitter.com/kingshukdas/status/1297942473759547392 …

Hearing from many friends. Yes, I have other work, too. Role of business models; machine learning and AI (both implications and bias); automation/AI and work; election integrity; computer security etc. I'm gonna go put all my stuff on a page. (Yes, I should have years ago).

I'm truly honored and lucky! I've also both experienced and witnessed how women's contributions get minimized. Happens all the time, no matter the track record. We should strive to value our own work along with that delicate balance of being open to challenge and with humility.

People asking why my rent was in the article! It came up because my landlord is trying—imo, quite illegally—to evict me! Yes, in the middle of a pandemic! Yes, I'm paying my rent, he just has more lucrative plans and doesn't care. (So now need an eviction lawyer in Orange Co

Hasn't happened yet but he may try soon. He's one of those absentee landlords—generational wealth/expat in Mexico says he's filmmaker/app developer—who doesn't care. I will live tweet the eviction if it comes to that but hopefully my legal rights prevail!https://twitter.com/ArthurKnapp14/status/1298311430542733313 …

About the Zapatista quote in the NYT piece. It refers to the start of *networked protests* not modernity (that would be haha
) It's the first time grassroots opposition could cheaply communicate *and* then gathered in large numbers, beyond institutional actors. Book has chapter.pic.twitter.com/bNKBzfmMZP

Bit of a word usage overlap there: Ben using the word modern to mean current era—which I'd be referring to networked protests—but someone may think I mean modernity in the academic sense (though I obviously would not & could not think that!). Clarifying because asked! Book page:pic.twitter.com/sNQrDAlGA7
