  • As a psychiatric nurse, during my work day I watch my screen for about 1 out of 8 hours. When I come home I like to spend some time behind the screen. I sometimes wonder if it is necessary that so many people work behind screens. Shouldn’t we get more people to work as nurses, teachers but also craftsman, handyman, etc. This may sound as a naive and romantic thought, and I’m sure a lot of the work behind screens is extremely useful and efficient. But still I wonder if we haven’t somehow lost focus of what’s important. Like we’ve started to think that we can solve everything behind the computer, while simultaneously things are falling apart, people are lonely and people in need don’t get help.


  • Could someone smarter than me explain Matrix to me? In particular,

    • What would be the utility for someone, who cares about privacy and currently uses Signal and email for communication?
    • What advantage would it give me over other services?
    • Is Matrix anything good already, or is it something with potential that’s still fully in development?
    • How tech savvy does one need to be to use Matrix?
