Era promessa de campanha. Mas a forma como foram concebidas e anunciadas as medidas do pacote fiscal coloca Haddad em outro patamar. Trata-se de estratégia civilizatória em país com índice recorde em desigualdade. Com a isenção proposta por #Haddad, hoje, quem ganha até 5 mil reais acaba de ganhar um aumento real de até 27,5% no salário. Quem poderia esperar?! image
"#thefediverse is currently actually #decentralized, and from my analysis, if there was willingness to take on the work, the gap of moving towards resolving #contentaddressing and #portableidentity at least are not so large architecturally. But I'm not sure there's interest or not. Maybe there will be so more now." @npub1urx3...v0z4
"Some people* say there's only One True Fediverse, the one which speaks #ActivityPub. Others say #theFediverse is whatever you make it, that's it's simply enough to say you're part of the fediverse to be part of the fediverse. Or maybe the rumors are true: there really are fediverseS (fediversi?). * me Own Your Data (OYD)"!!
What a great day!! "#Brazil’s federal police said Thursday they indicted former President Jair #Bolsonaro and 36 other people on charges of attempting a coup to keep him in office after his electoral defeat in the 2022 elections. On Tuesday, the federal police arrested four military and a federal police officer accused of plotting a coup that included plans to overthrow the government following the 2022 elections and allegedly kill #Lula and other top officials."
#Brazil: "The Federal Police indicted former President #JairBolsonaro, former Minister General #BragaNetto, and his former aide-de-camp, Colonel #MauroCid for attempted #coup d'état. Former ministers, commanders of the Army and Navy, active and reserve military personnel and former advisors to the ex-president were also indicted. In total, 37 people were indicted for the crimes of violent abolition of the democratic rule of law, coup d'état and criminal organization." image
#StravaEnshitification: "I suspect we’ll see a lot of companies just shut off the #API entirely, and perhaps that’s Strava’s goal. Though, I fail to see how that benefits paying #Strava subscribers, and thus Strava’s bottom line. Strava seems to be working very hard to kill off the #community of tens of thousands of apps that arguably made it so popular."
"I would like to use #Bluesky. They’ve done a bunch of seriously interesting technical work on moderation and ranking that I truly admire, and I’ve got lots of friends there who really enjoy it. But I’m not on Bluesky and I don’t have any plans to join it anytime soon. I wrote about this in 2023: I will never again devote my energies to building up an audience on a platform whose management can sever my relationship to that audience at will." @npub1fdrp...lvhs
"Tens of millions of #Trump voters support his program, yes, but the voters who pushed him over the edge into victory were essentially casting protest votes. The #Democrats have done everything they could to associate themselves with the ruling order: moving their politics to the right, shifting support away from supposed “leftists” within their ranks, demobilizing protest movements. It turns out that this was a losing wager at a time when people are hungry for change."
"I just wanted to ask: Do you remember the first time you felt like #theWeb was magic? #Neopets was the first such discovery for me, but it was far from the last. Soon after, I would discover free web hosting services like #GeoCities, where I was allowed to do a lot more than was allowed in the Neopets sandboxed page editor. Then I discovered that I could edit #Wikipedia. Twelve years old, I saw “the encyclopedia that anyone could edit”, and I was like, "I’m anyone!""
"The #TechCoup: How to Save Democracy from Silicon Valley". "The book explains how the tech industry has effectively captured #government, assuming many of the functions traditionally held by governments, but without the oversight inherent in democratic governance. This includes areas like national security, domestic functions, and even the maintenance of #democracy itself."
