Wow: card POS payments seem to be down across the Netherlands. Huge queues at cash machines, because most people don’t carry cash. Piles of food at supermarket checkouts because people could not pay.

Unclear what is happening. Is it some banks? All banks?

Anyone w more details?

[SedaG @sedyst]

Excellent thread and the article is still being searched. If anyone has a tip, I am also curious.

This is the most disconcerting tweet I have been mentioned in. And, since Seeta and I have been pulled into this ongoing discussion on the "existential threat to FAccT" let me explain shortly why.

So, @sarahchander, shall we talk about the "pause" letter. What would you say is not being discussed enough about the letter?

[Tech Won't Save Us @techwontsaveus]

“I do wonder whether the federal government — and certainly the auto industry — is missing the forest for the trees by putting so much emphasis on technological innovations to a problem with a much simpler solution. Pass laws to make the cars go slower.” https://t.co/LPqvx4F5Yp

[SedaG @sedyst]

Job alert @tudelftTBM: Assist/Assoc Professor position on "programmable infrastructures", or how the expansion of computational infrastructures dominated by a few tech companies are transforming our coventional infrastructures (e.g. transport, ports).

📢We're live!! We are happy to launch “Sphere Transgression Watch”, a digital tool that tracks and visualises the growing presence of Big Tech in different sectors -- or spheres -- of society, such as health, education, news provision and public policy. https://t.co/rctoOjHYJd

After 10 years, 4 drafts, 3 houses, 2 jobs, a pandemic and a life-threatening illness, it’s publication day! A book thread. https://t.co/QdaQFJdInm

[Stephen Diehl @smdiehl]

I was completely wrong about crypto and NFTs. I realized that the only problem with artificial scarcity is that we aren't financializing enough of the conceptual universe. So today (and today only) I’m announcing my new NFT collection. 🧵 (1/)

[Yalta European Strategy (YES) @yes_ukraine]

In #YESBrainstorming, @RanaForoohar describes the similarities between #AI and financialization of the global economy in terms of power relations: “To what extent it this a tool that can be used as innovation – or, to what extent is it asymmetric and putting power on one side."
