#introductions : part 3
Forgot to mention I’m also interested in #retrocomputing (have some #hypercard projects I’m planning) #netart, and many genres of music (pretty open), and am looking for #podcast recommendations. I have subscribed to a few #podcasts already but want more:) Really enjoying this place so far. 💾
We made a new add-on for @Firefox called Facebook Container in response to the growing demand we see for tools that help manage privacy and security.

@frankiesaxx People make so many excuses; I’m sure they can’t help it. :)
Bev Skeggs on Social Media Siloing
( Social Science Bites #podcast )
“Most people,” says sociologist Bev Skeggs, “think they’re using Facebook to communicate with friends. Basically they’re using it to reveal how much they can be sold for, now and in the future, and how much their friends can be sold for.”

@aparrish looks amazing ! :)
I teach a class at NYU called Reading and Writing Electronic Text that is half introduction to Python, half introduction to computational poetry. the syllabus is here: http://rwet.decontextualize.com/ and the tutorial/lecture notes are here: https://github.com/aparrish/rwet I've taught the class many times before, but this year I'm revising all the notes and porting everything to Python 3/Jupyter Notebook. I've also made entirely new tutorials on dictionaries, RNNs and keyword extraction. just wanted to share!
Someone finally recreated #Hypercard on a web browser! And I mean *really* recreated it.

@ThisQueerBashesBack nice! I’m a fan of kaleidoscopic patterns myself :)
@ThisQueerBashesBack Instagram mostly. There’s a considerable number of net artists, creative coders, and glitch artists on there. I want to consolidate everything into a blog soon though.
