I have joined Mastodon @ethomasjo@techhub.social . I looks very much like Twitter during it’s early days - no ads, no personalities, no corporate BS. Just people following others based in interest.
Meta laid off 3,600 people 5 days ago. Not a single one is on CNN. Do you get it now?
Almost everything @NandanNilekani has touched in public space is a surveillance project or regulatory capture.
Hey @UHC. Completed a hysterectomy yesterday afternoon, discharged her home in the evening (saving @UHC and everyone some money). Discharge medications included 12 Vicodin. (retail cost $30). Vicodin DENIED pending prior authorization. Patient in pain all night. Way to go.

Just because Donald Trump acts goofy doesn’t mean his presidency wouldn’t be dangerous. And you don’t have to take my word for it. Lately, some of the people who know Trump the best have been saying in no uncertain terms that he should not be president again.
Story of every failed third world country; Opposition leaders in jail, opposition bank accounts frozen. Election commissioner, media, compromised. Blatant quid pro quo between business houses and govt. Religious/ethnic fanaticism and majoritarianism.
I strongly condemn the unjust arrest of Shri Hemant Soren, a powerful tribal leader. The vindictive act by BJP-backed central agencies reeks of a planned conspiracy to undermine a popularly elected government. He is a close friend of mine, and I vow to stand unwaveringly by his…
An #Aviation chapter ends, as I woke up to images of Air India employees protesting as Adanis bulldozers moved in on the Indian Airlines colony today. Bus loads of policemen & demolition teams began as protesting ladies & gents clung to the buildings to prevent it. It’s a…
Some really cool (programming) tech that I think are underrated right now and that have proven very useful to me this year:
Mastodon has just passed over 2 million active monthly users, a new record! People are voting with their feet. The future of social media doesn't have to belong to a billionaire, it can be in the hands of its users.
wild to be called an “Elon bootlicker” for saying it’s a poor argument to tell your CEO the reason your work is leading to degraded product quality is because of “technical debt” (that *you* created in the first place). This is true even if you remove Elon from the equation.
Less than 24 hours after signing up on Mastodon( @joinmastodon), I see real people interacting - because they are not being buried down in promoted tweets. Decentralized social is here to remain! ✊
Blue tick without $8 + no ads at Mastodon
For anyone wondering, Mastodon got over 70K sign-ups yesterday alone. Let's keep the momentum going! The "public square" of the web must not belong to any one person or corporation!
