Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist https://www.wittgensteinproject.org/w/index.php/Logisch-philosophische_Abhandlung#1 When I turn on the radio, I usually expect to be entertained more than I expect to be informed — and my expectations seem to be confirmed time after time. This morning was no exception. This morning I heard that something had happened in Vancouver (Canada)… Continue reading Scaling Time

Virtual Milieus (vs. IRL Milieus)
A couple weeks ago, I pondered the question “What is a Milieu with No Location?” [ https://indigenous.news.blog/2025/02/12/distributed-milieus-what-is-a-milieu-with-no-location ] This week, I heard an interview with Silke Borgstedt (“Geschäftsführerin” at Sinus-Institut) — she was invited as a guest to a local news program in order to explain what insights her company might be able to provide in… Continue reading Virtual Milieus (vs. IRL Milieus)

My point of view is… Continue reading Reboot 2.0 — Are We Ready for a Renaissance in Open Source Information Technology?

[1] Of course these words are less new now … some of them might even be considered rather ordinary or regular (or whatever). In contrast to Ludwig Wittgenstein’s supposition about how languages seem to limit what humans are capable of expressing, good ole Bill simply… Continue reading Routing Around Regulatory Bodies

She noted that she feels it is wrong the… Continue reading Self Determination

There’s a sort of “pop jazz” song named “Compared to What?” and that’s the tune I have sort of stuck in my head as I am having these thoughts… — which thoughts? When we talk about community, it usually creates an intellectual divide between “Us and Them”, ingroups and outgroups. Yet these groups are not… Continue reading Community — Compared to What?
