"This is the strength of federated, federatable social media — it disciplines enshittifiers by lowering switching costs, and if enshittifiers persist, it makes it easy for users to escape unshitted, because they don’t have to solve the collective action problem. Any user can go to any server at any time and stay in touch with everyone else."

A metallic globe of the Earth is depicted, covered in numerous sharp spikes that jut outward, symbolizing danger or conflict.
The globe features the continents and oceans as they are commonly recognized on a typical world map.
It has a chain attached to it which could imply weightiness or constraint, suggesting a heavy burden for the planet or its inhabitants.

1) End of #Democracy > #Autocracy (will last decades)
2) Corrupted #Judiciary/farce #elections.
3) End of World US power (which exists thanks to Alliances... which will cease).
3) End of 'dollar' as the world's primary #currency
4) Without alliances/without 'dollar' there will be an inevitable #economic #constraint

Constraints and Indications • 2

Coping with collaboration, communication, context, integration, interoperability, perspective, purpose, and the reality of the information dimension demands a transition from conceptual environments bounded by dyadic relations to those informed by triadic relations, especially the variety of triadic sign relations employed by pragmatic semiotics.
Along the lines of my first post on this topic I am presently concerned with the logical and mathematical requirements of dealing with constraints but when it comes to the constraints involved in communicating across cultural and disciplinary barriers I could recommend a paper Susan Awbrey and I wrote for a conference devoted to those very issues.

I will focus here on "context" as more than the "space and time" in which something is observed to be/happen. I would emphasize that this sense of "context" is always _relational_ and is always plays some active role in shaping/constraining the perceived object system.
You may notice my use of words such as "observed" and "perceived". I may be taking this notion further than Juarrero, but I have long thought that _any_ meaningful description of a system is incomplete without including the context of the _observer_. (Often the observer goes without saying, but is always there.)
I am reminded of my high school physics class back in the 1970s, where I baffled and frustrated the instructor by my insistent questions asking for clarification of his definition of "entropy" as disorder. I kept trying to get him to see that the state of disorder must (it seems to me) be relative to the state of some observer. He never got it. I gave up and answered his test question about whether a scrambled egg has more entropy than a pristine egg in the shell, neglecting that the state of scrambledness may have been precisely the outcome for which work was done, to constrain the outcome.
Still bothers me... I'll sit down now and behave.
So I have a new chapbook in the world!

Survey of Definition and Determination
• https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2023/04/06/survey-of-definition-and-determination-2/
In the early 1990s, “in the middle of life's journey” as the saying goes, I returned to grad school in a systems engineering program with the idea of taking a more systems-theoretic approach to my development of Peircean themes, from signs and scientific inquiry to logic and information theory.
Two of the first questions calling for fresh examination were the closely related concepts of definition and determination, not only as Peirce used them in his logic and semiotics but as researchers in areas as diverse as computer science, cybernetics, physics, and systems science would find themselves forced to reconsider the concepts in later years. That led me to collect a sample of texts where Peirce and a few other writers discuss the issues of definition and determination. There are copies of those selections at the following sites.

What follows is a Survey of blog and wiki posts on Definition and Determination, with a focus on the part they play in Peirce's interlinked theories of signs, information, and inquiry. In classical logical traditions the concepts of definition and determination are closely related and their bond acquires all the more force when we view the overarching concept of constraint from an information-theoretic point of view, as Peirce did beginning in the 1860s.

Here we have #vectorgraphics and some advanced #constraint geometry like in modern parametric #CAD.
But this is => #1963!!
I like to think that with #FreeSoftware we can cross this line better, even today when "they" want you to make an "annual subscription" with a proprietary SW even to open your projects.
@FreeCAD is using this #1963 #genius approch: THIS IS THE WAY ;-)
