Philosophy Mondays: Human-AI Collaboration
Today's Philosophy Monday is an important interlude. I want to reveal that I have not been writing the posts in this series entirely by myself. Instead I have been working with Claude, not just for the graphic illustrations, but also for the text. My method has been to write a rough draft and then ask Claude for improvement suggestions. I will expand this collaboration to other intelligences going forward, including open source models such as Llama and DeepSeek. I will also explore other moda...

Web3/Crypto: Why Bother?
One thing that keeps surprising me is how quite a few people see absolutely nothing redeeming in web3 (née crypto). Maybe this is their genuine belief. Maybe it is a reaction to the extreme boosterism of some proponents who present web3 as bringing about a libertarian nirvana. From early on I have tried to provide a more rounded perspective, pointing to both the good and the bad that can come from it as in my talks at the Blockstack Summits. Today, however, I want to attempt to provide a coge...

In Washington DC today the FCC will meet to consider a notice of proposed rule making that has the potential for creating fast lanes, slow lanes and no lanes for your Internet access at home. I have blogged a lot about why this matters and what you can do about it.
At Continuations I am participating in a protest aimed at drawing attention to this issue by running code that puts an aggressive “still loading” overlay up with a clear call to action at the end. If you have a site that you control or work at a web company I urge you to do the same / suggest that your company does the same. You can find that code at StopTheSlowLane.
In addition I suggest you actually call your Senators’ and Representatives’ offices (which you can do right from the widget) and also tweet about all of this using the hash tag #StopTheSlowLane.
