@farisfj_ @jessewldn @jmonegro With work and proper intent, we *can* use the tech to deploy more equitable designs - but that work is on us, and the end outcome hangs in the balance of that (social) work being effective in overturning certain current norms.

[Chris Burniske @cburniske]

@farisfj_ @jessewldn @jmonegro I like the thread, but a nuance is I'm not sure crypto "will *naturally gravitate* towards more equitable distributions of wealth" (ie, in a dystopian metaverse, crypto could centralize resources further).

"I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate.... who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice" Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This happened to me fairly recently, though it was after Google flew me in to speak at a conference. It has really made me reconsider even staying in tech. I'm not sharing details yet but I'm interested to hear from anyone if this happened to you too. DMs are open.

[Kylie McDevitt @kylieengineer]

Someone said to me “you can choose to have a technical conference or a diverse/inclusive conference” and I stubbornly thought I could have both - thoughts?

Technology is capable of doing great things. But it doesn’t want to do great things. It doesn’t want anything. That part takes all of us. We are optimistic about technology’s awesome potential for good — but we know that it won’t happen on its own.

"We shouldn't sugar-coat the consequences, this is surveillance."

We agree.

The move away from companies storing all your data is happening. It’s too big a liability for companies, and for people, the trade offs are too great.
