The new EU asylum reform is disgusting.

Germany could’ve blocked the whole thing, but apparently the right wing countries got to decide once again.

Algorithmic Futures Policy Lab
2 days ago

This afternoon at Water Operations for Uncertain Futures 2023 #AFPLwouf23, we've taken on the role of various stakeholders and mapped out how we might carry out the #water concept pitches from initiation to adaptation. The takeaways? The considerations involved in shaping #water #futures are #complex and involve many interactions between #society, #environment, #technology, #industry, and #governance. Some things are easy to #adapt and #change – but on the whole, creating #robust and #equitable #systems in this space takes time, conversations, many knowledges, hard choices, and careful planning. And whether we know it or not, we all depend on the care people in this space take in creating robust water futures for us all.

#AFPLwouf23 is the third workshop in the Algorithmic Futures Policy Lab series, which has been made possible with the support of the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. ANU Institute for Water Futures and #OneBasinCRC have taken the lead in planning and supporting this workshop. Thanks, also, to the Fenner School of Environment and Society, ANU School of Cybernetics, ANU Centre for European Studies, CNRS LAMSADE, and DIMACS Rutgers University.

What water futures will we create today?

In Water Operations for Uncertain Futures 2023, we've already seen many possible visions of what our water futures might look like and how we can begin to shape them through #transdisciplinary practice, thanks to yesterday's excellent opening panel chaired by Katherine Daniell, including panelists David Kennewell, Nicola Ulibarri, Karen Hutchinson, Julianne Quinn, and Jasmin Zatarain Salazar from TU Delft. This morning, we're hearing the concept pitches we'll be working on collectively today -- each of which is an opportunity to shape our water futures with help from the knowledges of all our workshop participants.

But.. with a business delegation?

Where does #Singapore actually stand in the democracies' struggle against the rising forces of belligerent #imperialism?

It is a "business hub" alright, but an #autocracy dominated by a ruling elite from (currently) post-colonial #Chinese #diaspora, some of whom feel a strong pull of the ever more powerful #HanChinese "motherland.

From what I understand Singapore is trying to "play the field", for now, and see where the tide turns. Or worse.

Is is where democracies should be directing their investments though?

Then again, #Hongkong — the pearl of a CCP's banking colony — is *still* considered by some to be an acceptable place for #business by some very decent and ethical people...

@mattburgess @FuchsiaShock Aside from violating the privacy rights of EU citizens, wouldn’t banning end-to-end encryption spell the end for online retail (bye bye Amazon), online banking, contactless payments (in fact, any payments other than physical cash), secure access to medical records, secure access to government records concerning citizens etc. etc.?

Or do they just mean that end-to-end encryption should only be legal for transactions where one or both parties are government agencies or big corporations?

The whole thing seems either ridiculously ill-conceived or a massive threat to democracy or both 🤦🏻‍♀️

#encryption #EuropeanUnion #privacy

Given the increase of delusional/ignorant sentiments in governance groups, leading them to believe that removing encryption will help them fight crime or protect certain groups online (e.g. children), it's definitely time to reach out to your #EU #MEP.

Don't hesitate to point out arguments (even the obvious ones) and facts ranging from technical feasibility all the way to what depends on our ability to safely and securely communicate and remain anonymous online.

We have stood up in unity and solidarity to regain our energy independence, cut Russian fossil fuel imports, and support Ukraine.

This was possible thanks to the efforts of EU citizens and companies embracing #REPowerEU.

In one year, we have diversified our supply, scaled up renewables, and saved energy to rapidly move away from Russian fossil fuel imports.

Our job is not done, but we are more resolute and united than ever, and better prepared to face next winter.

(Trivia: Did you notice that our logo represents a stylised image of the Berlaymont?)

2. To this day, there have been 13 Presidents of the European Commission. President Ursula von der Leyen has been in office since 2019.

3. Our College of Commissioners is composed of 27 members, one from each EU country, including the President and the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.

(Trivia: Ursual con der Leyen is the first woman in history to hold the position of President of the European Commission.)

4. Our President and college of Commissioners are appointed by their respective countries and elected by the Europan Parliament.

(Trivia: Each September, the President of the European Commission delivers the State of the Union address to the European Parliament.)

5. Role: We promote the general interest of the EU by proposing and enforcing legislation as well as by implementing policies and the EU budget.

6. 24 official languages. The EU supports multilingualism in its programmes and in the work of its institutions.

(Trivia: Our spokesperson's service organises press conferences, and briefings and is the main point of contact for media organisations.)

I recommend https://emaillabs.io/en/ - really cheap (even free for up to 9000 monthly emails) and when I signed up, they even sent their data protection agreement (DPA) for me to sign, without being asked! 👍
