What a beautiful beautiful Messi > Martinez gooooooooool.
Renee DiResta recently argued in Noema that we need a way to prove personhood online. And quoted Eli and my work calling for civil society and industry to do the work to create and govern a shared human-agent internet. www.noemamag.com/we-need-a-wa...
We Need A Way To Prove Personhood Online | NOEMA
The growing number of AI agents roaming the internet will eventually force us to verify what the old web mostly presumed: that there is a morally and legally accountable person somewhere in the chain.

Seattle really turned out for USMNT. Wish the team had turned out too. 😤
I've been rooting for Agentina in the Mundial since 2010. USMNT since 🤷🏽♀️. Colombia since this year cause we've got a Colombia fan in our lives. But that's kind what I love about the World Cup. It can be patriotic but it can also be about the beautiful game and the story of these players and teams.
🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴 Yea, my loyalties are *REALLY* divided. What of it.
Gooooooooooolllll. Argentina venga 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 Yea. My loyalties are divided.
Uncivil language that's directed upward is part of a healthy democracy. And the moderation tools we've built for public conversation with public broadcasters make that distinction. This feels like an especially important distinction on the eve of America's 250th 🇺🇸
A healthy democracy thrives on debate. We don’t want toxic and chaotic spaces, but sanitized, hyper-civil spaces aren’t the goal either. As @angelquicksey.bsky.social, Managing Director at New_ Public, says here, we benefit from respectful conversations with lots of friction, even arguments.
If the USMNT pull it off with this game, they're COMING BACK TO SEATTLE. Let's bring 'em back to the PNW with another Goooollllllll. VENGA LET'S GO 🇺🇸🌲⚽️🏟️
Listen. I love Kraft Mac and Cheese. But I also appreciate organic produce. I think that is how social technology could evolve too: From mass market social media to bespoke, local-first options.
@angelquicksey.bsky.social, Managing Director at New_ Public, puts forward a vision for the future of social media where we don’t just have TikTok and X, but also bespoke, cultivated social apps tied to community needs and with higher “nutritional value”.
Learning about this news from the hallowed grounds of SFO Gate E8 feels so meta.
After almost four wonderful years at the Times, later this summer @kevinroose.com and I are leaving Hard Fork to start a new podcast. We'll share more soon, but in the meantime Kevin has a lovely reflection here kevinroose.substack.com/p/leaving-th...
I wrote in this week's New_ Public newsletter about why we launched the Open Social Awards and why I'm excited about what folks are building on decentralized social protocols.
@angelquicksey.bsky.social, Managing Director at New_ Public, on why the useful, alternative social apps and websites on the open web need to be celebrated 🎉
USMNT won and they're coming here next! Seattle Mariners won. Tridents up! It's a good day to be a Seattle sports fan 🔱🏟️
First USMNT goal of this Mundial! And only ~6 min into the game!!! ⚽️🏟️🙌
The machinations around these models. 👀👀👀 Anthropic disabling Fable after a few days and the government taking issue with foreign nationals _inside the company_ is truly wild.
The guy starting a pizza restaurant didn't set out to make trash pizza. And the entrepreneur building a new social app or consumer product, usually doesn't set out to eXtrAcT mAxiMuM vAlUe fOr tHeiR sHaRehOLdErs. But financial gravity often pushes them in that direction.
@angelquicksey.bsky.social, Managing Director at New_ Public, finds inspiration in @ericries.bsky.social's new book Incorruptible: can we push these AI companies in a more public-spirited, prosocial direction and away from the gravitational pull of extractive business models?
You know your research is really getting around when it reaches its death metal slop phase. Someone turned our After the Feed report into a (head) banger. h/t @eli.bsky.social 🎶 suno.com/song/b408816...
