My job was "Special Projects". I worked for a director and basically made magic happen.</p><p>Early November 2014, someone from a human interface robotics lab handed me a new piece of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/hardware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hardware</span></a> called the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ThalmicMyo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThalmicMyo</span></a> . It was an upper armband with 8 myoelectric sensors that could measure electrical muscle function, and do stuff on a computer with that data! The base idea was that you could do the following: hand wave outward, inward, spread out, fist, and thumbs up.</p><p>So, being CrankyLinuxUser, I wanted a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FLOSS</span></a> toolchain to get and do my own thing with it. Whoops, only worked for <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MSWindows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MSWindows</span></a> . </p><p>Forum requests were met with silence. "Sorry you cant get the data", was the refrain. Lies. </p><p>So I used my <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/IU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IU</span></a> account and requested academic access. They IMMEDIATELY chimed up and said that access could easily be granted at $5000/year . UH huh. </p><p>So, I made them a target. </p><p>Took a few weeks. BUT I eventually got a shitty BUT working toolchain on Linux to use really basic machine learning. This is just a linear regression k-nearest-neighbors. No LLM fuckery. Theirs could do 5 gestures. Mine could do 10.</p><p>I initially released it on <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HackerNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HackerNews</span></a> or YCombinator, not realizing that Thalmic Myo was VC funded by YC. And holy shit that was a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MartinHench" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MartinHench</span></a> moment where I fell into a WHOLE LOT OF SHIT. My article was auto-killed. My account on HN was shadowbanned. Ruh roh.</p><p>I had some contacts at <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hackaday.social/@hackaday" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>hackaday</span></a></span> and I sent them my findings, my responses from HN, and my repo... and a really hostile Youtube video (one of my gestures was a middle finger to Thalmic).</p><p>On Nov 18, 2014, at 730am eastern, my phone blew up, figuratively speaking. Ping. Ping ping. PIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG until 12pm.</p><p>The page is still up on HaD, by the way. <a href="https://hackaday.com/2014/11/18/thalmic-labs-shuts-down-free-developer-access/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hackaday.com/2014/11/18/thalmi</span><span class="invisible">c-labs-shuts-down-free-developer-access/</span></a> </p><p>At 12pm or thereabouts, Thalmic Myo announced that they made an official decision to "allow raw data access"! I was not only successful for my hardware, but hardware freedom for <strong>EVERYONE</strong> with this platform.</p><p>Normally, the story would stop. I handed back the borrowed hardware to the lab that loaned it to me. I know they were able to do some cool prosthetic automation with it. But that's not my specialty. I made it so they could. My director permitted me to buy a few for our office to continue and loan them out as well.</p><p>...... 3 months later</p><p>I get a call on my office phone doing a customer survey. Told them that the hardware was great. "What about our API?" I told them that I made my own, and I was the one that forced your company to open source 3 months back. Ive never heard silence so LOUD. She asked me to stand by.</p><p>She transferred me to the CTO. We had a spirited conversation. I basically told him that I think ignoring the FLOSS and hacker community was your first and fatal mistake. You were a hardware business. You can do the VC thing and gatekeep, but that just angers people. And what you were in was a MASSIVE awesome piece of unique hardware nobody else had. He told me that their original idea was a powerpoint slide advance. I gave him perhaps 6 different major ideas to jump off on. </p><p>Nothing else happened, for a while. </p><p>3 more months later.......</p><p>I get a reddit DM out of the blue. Saw my name, and connected the dots. (S)He was an engineer at Thalmic during the time I released my Linux FLOSS code. They told me that I basically flip-turned the whole company upside down. I broke their business model of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Extraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Extraction</span></a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enshittification</span></a> and forced <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FLOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FLOSS</span></a> on them without a choice. They thanked me for my contribution. </p><p>Later n, the company got acquired or died. I'm not sure. I moved on and no longer had any of the hardware.

dana hilliot<p>Le travail non payé de la nature</p><p>(Il s'agit d'une note en bas de page que je rédigeais ce matin, le genre de note qui vaudra bien un chapitre entier à mon avis - faudra juste trouver le moment où le placer ce chapitre 😅 Dans le corps principal du texte, il était question de la "cueillette" :</p><p>(...) Pour autant, la cueillette elle-même est un travail, une forme d’extraction – et peut faire l’objet d’une exploitation massive de travailleurs et des travailleuses. On notera ici, ce que Marx relevait déjà dans le livre I du Capital, que, pour le capitaliste, la nature «&nbsp;ne travaille pas&nbsp;», ou du moins, que l’usage des produits naturels, que nous appelons de manière très caractéristique des «&nbsp;ressources&nbsp;», n’a pas besoin d’être «&nbsp;payé&nbsp;» – la nature est considérée comme une ressource disponible gratuitement à qui veut bien s’en servir – et le capitaliste ne s’en prive pas. Il s’en empare, souvent avec brutalité,&nbsp;en excluant les autres usagers, s’accapare l’environnement et ses richesses en considérant qu’il en a le droit, et même, le devoir, parce que lui seul en a perçu la valeur, c’est-à-dire la survaleur qu’on peut tirer de son exploitation prétendue rationnelle (l’appropriation est justifiée par le travail, c’est le premier étage de la logique capitaliste qu’on lit déjà chez Locke, et qu’on nomme le «&nbsp;labour-value argument&nbsp;». Ou, pour le dire autrement, ce qui est donné gratuitement (par Dieu ou la Nature) «&nbsp;doit être&nbsp;» cultivé, utilisé, exploité, extrait – ce devoir lui-même relève, comme le montrera Max Weber, d’une injonction religieuse. </p><p>L’accumulation primitive, et la spoliation, l’expropriation, l’expulsion, les violences extrêmes qui accompagnent, et structurent, le colonialisme (et son corollaire, l’esclavagisme), sont justifiés par cette injonction. Ce n’est pas pour rien que les luttes contemporaines contre l’extractivisme industriel reposent sur la négation de ce soit-disant principe&nbsp;: d’une part, les populations autochtones revendiquent la propre rationalité (et la supériorité, d’un point de vue écologiste) de leur usage en dénonçant l’irrationalité de l’extraction industrielle. D’autre part, on remet également en question l’idée de «&nbsp;ressource naturelle&nbsp;», par exemple en s’efforçant de penser tel ou tel partie de l’environnement comme un «&nbsp;sujet&nbsp;», une rivière, une montagne, une forêt, une barrière de corail, l’océan, et les êtres non-humains qui l’habitent. Et donc de leur accorder des droits précédant, et donc limitant, voire interdisant, certaines formes d’exploitation. Ce raisonnement a été largement développé en ce qui concerne l’exploitation animale. </p><p>On pourrait toutefois l’élargir aux êtres non-animés, je pense par exemple aux roches, en considérant que ce que nous considérons comme des «&nbsp;ressources&nbsp;» offertes gratuitement, n’est en réalité disponible qu’à l’issue d’un travail extraordinairement long, littéralement «&nbsp;géologique&nbsp;». La plupart des paysages qui nous environnent sont issus d’un travail géologique (et quasiment toujours d’un travail humain, mais aussi animal) qui s’étend sur des millions d’années&nbsp;: en les exploitant de manière industrielle, c’est-à-dire en détruisant en quelques années ce qui a mis tant de temps à émerger dans l’état où elles le trouvent, les entreprises extractivistes nient la longue histoire de la production des paysages et des environnements – cette négation s’ajoute à la liste du travail que le capitaliste ne paye pas, le travail (de reproduction au sens large) non payé des femmes en premier lieu, et de celles et ceux qui ont pris soin de l’environnement jusqu’ici, y compris des savoirs autochtones (la connaissance des plantes par exemple).</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nature</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Extraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Extraction</span></a></p>

Estelle Platini<p>‘The resumption and failure of efforts to socialize the German coal industry [in 1919] marked the end of any fundamental attempt to alter the distribution of economic power in Germany.
