  3. Are you ready for the blockchain community to become identity newbies? https://twitter.com/mayazi/status/1190328184530583556

  4. @nicoleradziwill @gvwilson Exactly.

  5. @briecode I prefer insects to live outside.

    November 2, 2019

  6. I assume no one is noticing that I am not attending certain identity things anymore because of the people involved. Is it useful to share the reasons why I am boycotting these things? Or would it just be stirring up drama?

    November 2, 2019

  7. @evanwolf Pretty confident it will backfire on me, as a woman, calling out the BS of male leaders & systemic biases, vs have any real change. I prefer to go away and focus on other/my things. Isn't this the story of this situation forever?

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @evanwolf

  8. @joshua_eaton I feel you. My mom made me a bunch of travel shoe bags and I use them every time I travel. It's been 7 years since she died. I try to find the joy in the evoked memory & think how she knew these things would remind me of her when she was gone. The love remains.

  9. @ninavizz @evanwolf What are best practices to do this in the least drama creating way?

  10. @ninavizz @evanwolf I *was* a leader of one of these events for a short time.

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @ninavizz

  11. @ninavizz @evanwolf Yeah, but I am the one who takes the reputation hit, with no benefit at all to myself. I'm kinda tired of it. I've done a fair amount of taking hits, with no benefits for a while now. And none of it's really public or transparent.

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @ninavizz

  12. @evanwolf @ninavizz That all has already been done by multiple people.

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @evanwolf

  13. @evanwolf @ninavizz Minus the going public part...

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  14. @LTetreault Yes, that is a noble reason + to let others who have had the same experience, know their experience was not an anomalie but a point on a trajectory. But I'm not sure how much fire/negative reputation points I want to take. It's a very serious thing to weigh.

    November 2, 2019 · reply to @LTetreault

  15. I just want to work with nice people (in the identity space). No power hunger, no agendas, honesty with themselves, ability to see the complexity, to listen and create space for a multitude of worldviews, non-attachment, curiosity, skin in the game. Where are they?

    November 2, 2019

  16. @SarahSchacht There are definitely nice people in identity. But they may be hard to find because they don't show up at all things.

  19. The shadow of clouds falls across the valley. Long grey shadows connect sky to earth.

    November 3, 2019

  20. In the valley sound unfolds at sunset. The sky orange and gold, pastel pink and purple above a dust and taupe and slate and grey mountain range. #perpetualdune #lifeinthemojave

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  21. Reverb and echo. Ethereal and distorted. Syncopated rhythms dissolve to near cacophony. Only to return as electric blades piercing the noise, light in the darkness of sound. #perpetualdune

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @debgamble1

  29. @ShibumiKiDo That any thing exists, so does its "opposite." With good, is evil, with light, is dark. Can't have one without the other, so by invoking/envisioning/observing one aspect of a duality, means the other must also exist, even if currently hidden.

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @ShibumiKiDo

  30. @ShibumiKiDo Well, we have a limited/focused perception of the universe... I mean, what is emptiness (buddhist definition) in physics terms? It's all baby steps of learning.

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @ShibumiKiDo

  31. @ShibumiKiDo Well, it's certainly lazier to be mean-spirited and fear based. But isn't this the practice? Also, negativity gets a bigger bang for its buck, whereas kindness must present 10x and still not be broadly noticed.

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @ShibumiKiDo

  32. Memories of the desert sky at night. Orion sleeping sideways. The music dampened by my ear plugs & increasing distance. I drive the black highway, yellow line changes to solid, dashed. My head is clear, I feel grounded, The #bliss & #emptiness found deep in the desert night.

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  33. This morning is funky-electro Jamiroquoi, companion to domestic bliss. Green tea, Archibald, doors open; fresh, dry desert wind, hummingbirds zoom, time to tidy up. Guests arrive later this week. #lifeinthemojave

    November 3, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  34. Sometimes the wind is still, sometimes she blows the hillsides to a crisp no dragon's force could match. Sometimes she blows the dust into your eyes, or clears the skies -- Milky Way sparkling so bright. Gentle, cool & dry or sweltering, warm & moist. Breathe.

  38. Today, a dream I’ve had for over a decade came true. It’s pretty mundane, and wasn’t that hard after all, and all it really took was a good handyman and $$$ and a trailer (and a lot of elbow grease on by all parties) But whatever block was on before is now gone. Feels so good.

    November 5, 2019

  44. You know what else? #LASantacon doesn't get articles written about us destroying our the city. #NYSantacon is covered on LA news as a trashfire, w/out local news even noticing our hometown jolly festivities. #santarchy #cacophonysociety #santacon #OGcacophonist

    November 5, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  45. And because we are so well behaved, no one writes cranky/negative articles about us, so we can't update wikipedia w/ our experience. This is why I no longer give $$$ to wikipedia. #santarchy #cacophonysociety #santacon #media #negativebias #wikipedia #OGcacophonist

    November 5, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  46. So journalists, why not cover people doing things *right* instead of the constant negative drama, so the good guys can get covered in the history books. (Not like it matters.) #santarchy #cacophonysociety #santacon #media #negativebias #wikipedia #OGcacophonist

    November 6, 2019 · reply to @doriantaylor

  57. @doriantaylor Fair enough concern.

    November 6, 2019 · reply to @doriantaylor

  58. @doriantaylor @maurerbot Because if we have technology that "proves" you are who you say you are digitally, then people will believe that 100%. But technology isn't 100% perfect, hackers will find new ways to break it & impersonate you; & when that time comes, it could be much worse for the individual.

    November 7, 2019 · reply to @doriantaylor

  59. @doriantaylor @maurerbot I see all this tech as a work in progress - solves today's problems, creates new ones in the future. We have major projects that new technology can solve today. So, IMO, we should explore using this new technology in those ways.

    November 7, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  60. @doriantaylor @maurerbot So the real truth is that no technology will ever solve this 100% -- but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to solve it to our best ability with the technology available.

    November 7, 2019 · reply to @doriantaylor

  133. I love hearing about how certain technology documents are mainly unreadable, but the "community" does little to nothing to engage/enable the people who can actually help spread knowledge/understanding of this new technology. In fact, they tend to alienate these people.

    November 18, 2019

  134. The solutions in this article are simplistic and introduce more problems. The issue is the historical data used to program the algo. Maybe instead of trying to change the historical pattern - we create a new pattern that isn't based on biased history. https://www.technologyreview.com/s/614721/theres-an-easy-way-to-make-lending-fairer-for-women-trouble-is-its-illegal/

  137. Been re-watching the Aeon Flux body of work -- and wow... it's so prescient in some ways. Great inspiration for mining new attack (and defense) surfaces. Also, how could I have forgotten how sexy it was???

    November 18, 2019

  138. I love how in the entire second season Aeon dies every single time due to some stupid mis-step. I love this humility along with the good luck-bad luck, who knows twists and turns of the story.

    November 18, 2019 · reply to @heathervescent

  139. Also, re-watching the anime, it's amazing how on-story most of the live action Aeon Flux was. I wasn't a fangirl when it came out, but I didn't hate it. After over a decade, it still stands up - in terms of story and future-style. Berlin and German aesthetics FTW.

  186. @Johannes_Ernst Well, I think that's a potentially dangerous idea a la reputation score. Our experiences of each other are subjective. I may know a limited set of one's identity -- in fact I likely do. There are few people who know the (near)totality of another's identity.
