Disclaimer to my friends, and not-so-friends: I posted a comic about a controversial topic. The conversation could go on a 'memeistic' side, or extremely deep, philosophical, intellectual, and rational. Usually, I like both approaches.
I don't want to win any argument. I'm not in the mood to show "You are wrong" (something I do at work, why should I do that here?), although I'm almost always open to learning something new.

If instead of being humorous, is striking a sensitive chord, well, it wasn't targeted for you. And that's OK. If you want to hear different opinions, nice! You want to keep your beliefs, even better. What to have a clash of scientific evidence? Well, we can do that another day.

@thecanine Yeah. I find that definition too broad and ambiguous (Is it _only_ the same opinions? There are _no_ opposing views, at all?). And I think that leaving a subjective metric, on when it is and is not, won't help.

How about?
> An echo chamber refers to situations in which beliefs are amplified or reinforced by communication and repetition inside a closed system and insulated from rebuttal. By participating in an echo chamber, people are able to seek out information that supports their existing views diminishing opposing views, potentially resulting in an unintended exercise of confirmation bias.

> An echo chamber is an epistemic construct in which voices are actively excluded and discredited. It does not suffer from a lack of connectivity; rather it depends on the manipulation of trust by methodically denying all outside sources.

And we would need to go deeper on understanding what an epistemic construct is, but I think that's too long for a twt.

@thecanine that definition could be outdated, you'll have to read the licence to know what rights are you geting when you pay for something in a traditional platform or on a 'crypto contract'

For instance you could copy a book on epub format, but you _shouldn't_. And you could just pirate it since is just a bunch of bytes, but maybe you want to _legally_ buy it without DRM.

Sometimes you get rights to sell your current copy, sometimes you own 'Related rights', etc. Sadly it's not a simple regulation but things like Creative Commons is a good starting point to know more about Copyright (US/UK) and author's rights (Europe, Latam)

NFTs + art + money + technology is extremely difficult mix since we are putting together many definitions of art and science. Those not involving money, with another about speculation and opportunism.

I got to say that my computer was in a public hall from the house, so I was kind of supervised, but had chance to watch adult content (I'm not a fan), gore and some disturbing stuff for that age. I knew more about computers than my parents and grand-parents, so the risk was there. #anecdotalEvidence

As I have the discussion with my colleagues making games, we can't say that violent games don't influence kids, but neither we can say the opposite. I think the amount depends on the social context, and mainly on family foundations, so it's an extremely hard problem to solve.

@abucci I disagree with your disagreement... How about that? Just joking... It's OK to disagree

I think giving an e-device is worse than allowing a teenager to create a profile on social media. Finally they are having social profiles at school and in real life, not changing neurons and the brain itself. The interesting part is that teenagers reach to be 'public' figures earlier. But again, you have to cross some boundaries like sexual content or bullying, to be really dangerous. Other than that is similar exposure that teenagers have at school, and without some platform regulating content...
Yes, there are suicides, but not for every person, while every toddler is changing their brain and losing skills. (I need to find references here, for sure)
Is not black and white, both have risks. That's why I say, it's similar. Both require attention from parents, but taking e-devices away is less convenient as they take care of children.

Thank you for the feedback and your votes (Bananas, SΓΈren Peter @darch, prologic) !

On the programming side, this problem is not that challenging (yet). Ask availability to your friends, and make some statistics with it, sum, sets. I think this will be done quickly.

On the product design and user interface sides, it has been challenging.
It's different if you ask to decide between Tue 9pm, Wed 9pm or Thu 9pm. vs. deciding two days, vs a whole week (24 x 7 = 168 possible options)

We have discussed getting inspiration from Doodle and Framadate but I find that is difficult to make it accessible, and for a week's view those are also confusing.


Currently, I'm focusing on the use case of deciding on a Weekly call on Fridays and Saturdays in the mornings or afternoons (about 48 different options), but I'm trying to find a better strategy. Perhaps divide and conquer (Fri mornings, Fri afternoons, Sat mornings, Sat afternoons)

What do you think?=

@movq Thanks for the catch-up. I live in that state, so I experienced firsthand the change.

Basically, our state had an ICANN region (Mexican Mountain Time/MT), but the government said "Forget that and follow Mexican Central Time".
But as the state on the border, Texas, USA, stays with American MT, that made some trouble between companies and offices.
That has happened before, the municipalities/regions had different start and end for DST for 1 or 2 weeks, but now they have 1 hr offset all the year.
Municipalities affected in this State

tl;dr ICANN timezone America/Chihuahua is not gonna be used anymore. Some municipalities are going to switch to America/Mexico_City and some others to US/Mountain. In the future, when USA removes DST, those states are going to follow. Regions on the border will follow American regulations. #sovereigntyFTW

What I think is that the project needs traction. Some _network effect_ and social validation. And that's not solved with technology, but with _social engineering_.
I'd recommend inviting/hiring someone with experience growing networks πŸ€”

@prologic Well... I'm in the middle here. It's useful to have automagically some stats of your links (more for the vanity metrics) used a lot by brands and commercial usage.

For people wasting time on their favorite social media... I don't know how useful is that. Aaaand, in free social media, where you are the product, well... It's for granted that you'll be tracked in exchange.

@darch I guess preferred is different than 'correct'.

My preference is this one:

> Text 1

> I'd expect this quote to be separated




> And for this case
> I'd expect these blocks to be together


But since I moved from Markdown to Gemtext, I always forget how it works.
That said, I don't generally like splitting the blocks as those are connected on the same idea.
