look forward to meeting you there :)

I encourage you to join. Happy to discuss if you'd like to send me a DM or Signal chat

are you an asc member?

heh. worth it imo. it’s so good you and your clients will do a triple take. at least for single-signature flows. i haven’t tested or used a multi-signature flow (although i lean to separate contracts for separate concerns). anyway, i could roll my own signature app, but not worth the time right now.

Fast e-signatures, without enterprise nonsense A mobile-first eSignature platform for high-volume workflows, clean APIs, and frictionless signing on any device.

@antonsten.com you asked about docusign alternatives? i had my first experience with esignatures recently. it was wonderful.

uh it’s like 2:30am here and idk why i woke up but i’m gonna blame sunshine and going to bed early

when i talk about how at-pro-to might help address epistemic fracture, and all i can think about is the epistemic fracture caused by bodega cats in my best of follows feed, ngl, it feels nice. that right there, it feels nice.

but like. what? is this punishment from on-high for unfollowing bodega cats? cute cats in my Best Of Follows feed? that’s the punishment?

look, at the end of the day i’m not mad that there are bodega cats in my feed. in some ways, this is the best bug imaginable. i also feel gaslit. by bodega cats. which, if you want to feel gaslit by an account, i suggest bodega cats. they’re perfect.

there is a bug in the Best Of Follows feed, where even though i unfollowed @bodegacats.bsky.social, i still see posts from @bodegacats.bsky.social. i have communicated with bsky support about it. and for a day or two i thought it was fixed. it has not been fixed.

This is the part where folks begin to understand that fact checking the feds and making a spectacle .

Doesn’t help when the SOCIETAL and powerful mechanism don’t believe a crime has been committed

And there has been no movement to rectify the base conditions

HCI Seminar - Andy Matuschak - Apps and programming: two accidental tyrannies | MIT CSAIL Abstract:One of the personal computer revolution’s grandest dreams was that we'd all have not only our own computers, but that we’d also create our own dynamic media, exquisitely tuned to our own…

Boston-area mutuals: I'll be giving the MIT HCI seminar this Tuesday at 4PM. I've got some open time on Wednesday morning—DM me if you'd like to chat! 👋

While much has been & can be said about the outsized impact our work tried to do (and all the stuff we weren't able to do)

In reality, I just miss getting to work with a cadre of smart, outstanding people who were trying to improve things for millions of people everyday.

the bias of a system is what it does

Love this ↓

I’m inspired most days by @cmooreanderson.bsky.social’s work. I have a couple of his books. Christian is helping evolve the way education works. For the better.

Second-order h/t to @roneglash.bsky.social, who shared this with me.

Afro-now-ism | NOEMA The unencumbered black mind is a wellspring of possibility.

“Black liberation rests on the construction of a non-oppositional consciousness, unburdened by the need to endlessly challenge the fears, imaginative apprehension, oppression and entanglements of others.”

Just one of the many bangers in this piece!

Love to see it

for example, MCII (or similarly strategic foresight), when paired with Bateson’s Method (double description), provide a sort of language of applied abductive process and biosemiotics that i’ve found very revealing when considering biomimicry in e.g. team topologies

the threaded post felt generative and sparked the cybersystemics connection for me. I love this type of transdisciplanary commentary because it’s so needed in the worlds of software engineering org design, and S&O. all these communities have much to learn from each other

as it relates to @strategytheory.com, i am very interested in emerging transdisciplinary communities of practice developing around cyberpsychosocial concerns such as cybersystemics
