Un autre numérique est possible. Le problème, c’est que nos politiques et nos journalistes sont incapables de l’imaginer.
L'imaginer c'est sans doute difficile, mais ils pourraient au moins faire l'effort de s'intéresser à ce qui existe et qui est possible aujourd'hui.
They enrich uranium up to 60%. It is very costly and there is no civilian need for that. No one believes it is a civilian program.
I am very critical of Israel on Gaza, but on the Iranian nuclear program, there has been decades of procrastination, ambivalence and, since the last Trump episode, downright idiocy, in the handling of the diplomatic discussion. I kinda believe it when they say we were at the point where strikes were the only option to avoid a nuclear Iran.
Then again, the world pretends that Israel has no nukes whereas it is an open secret. All the other nuclear nations, including Pakistan and India, consider that the only way to be safe in such a situation is the MAD doctrine. Yet we expect Iran to stop its nuclear program and pretend its main enemy has none. I am not sure how idiotic we thought they are but even to religious fanatics it was pretty obvious that the only way for them was to have their own secret program.
This is a complex clusterfuck where you can't easily split the actors as good guys/bad guys. There are lots of rational decisions and lots of totally idiotic religion-fueled ethnic hatred.
Bah du coup a posteriori, se dire dans ce cadre "oui ben vous êtes bien gentils, mais nous on va continuer à améliorer nos nukes au cas où quand même" était plutôt bien vu non? Les gens qui ont abandonné leurs programmes nucléaires (l'Ukraine mais aussi l'Irak et la Libye) se sont tous fait envahir.
Faire ça dans un DOM-TOM à cause d'une mentalité coloniale qui dit que c'est moins grave d'emmerder les gens là bas parce que c'est pas vraiment la France, c'est ça qui est à vomir et à critiquer.
It is also non-coercitive.
I would argue that when you have 1000+ people, you will necessarily have subgroups, teams, you wont have 1000 on 1000 communication. There will be subtasks, people a bit more specialized at organization and communication. Topologically, you will have a graph of people passing through specialized communication nodes. I think it is unavoidable.
There is no reason however for seeing these nodes as "above" the others. It is out of habit that we organize things as a pyramid, but the fact is if a dev or a maintainer disagree, they have no way to force each other. Resolution comes from overall consensus, and the reason why Linus Torvalds is often the arbiter of these cases is because he is very respected by the rest of the community, but whole forks have existed (and have been reintegrated).
Open source politics is quite different from what people are used to. The ability to fork a whole project gives a mean of resistance that no other organization has.

Par une curieuse coincidence du destin, plusieurs membres de ma famille avaient des choses importantes hier (voyage un peu risqué, opération chirurgicale et examen) et tout s'est passé super bien!
Oui, j'ai d'abord pensé à /r/france parce que des gens dans une discussion précédentes demandaient le texte du décret. Je l'aurais posté de toutes façons.
Oui, je l'ai posté là bas et je me suis dit "mais qu'est ce que je fous? C'est sur le fediverse que je devrait le mettre avant tout"
Ban ads and close source.
If you ban smartphones, make sur to make it in a way that would not prevent us to reinvent them in the way they should have existed in the first place.
C'est la rançon de la reconnaissance scientifique: la médiation a, effectivement, des effets mesurables et parfois importants. Corollaire: c'est pas toujours positif et ça aurait été surprenant qu'il n'existe aucune condition où ça cause des problèmes.
