Following Uber’s fatal crash in Arizona, Governor Doug Ducey is attracting attention for what he did and did not do. This is not surprising; as I noted in 2016, Arizona's governor decided to embrace Uber’s vision, for better or for worse.

Handbook by Evan Selinger, Jules Polonetsky, and Omer Tene: “Businesses are rushing to collect personal data to fuel surging demand.

Eillie Anzilotti in Fast Company: “…While anyone who bikes or rides a bus in New York City knows intuitively that the lanes are often blocked, there’s been little data to back up that feeling apart from the fact that last year, the NYPD issues 24,000 tickets for vehicles blocking bus lanes, and around 79,000 to cars in the bike lane. By building the algorithm, Bell essentializes what engaged citizenship and productive use of open data looks like.
Michael David Thomas in Public Choice: “New justifications for government intervention based on behavioral psychology rely on a behavioral asymmetry between expert policymakers and market participants. Public choice theory applied the behavioral symmetry assumption to policy making in order to illustrate how special interests corrupt the suppositions of benevolence on the part of policy makers. Cognitive problems associated with market choices have been used to argue for even more intervention.

He spent every day in the fields — tilling the land, tending the animals, and gathering water. The work was as necessary as it was exhausting. But the old man considered himself fortunate. He had a good life, and never really gave much thought to what was missing.
Report by the Centre for Public Impact: “…embarked upon a worldwide project to find out how governments can strengthen their legitimacy. Amidst the turbulence and unpredictability of recent years, there are many contemporary accounts of people feeling angry, cynical or ambivalent about government.

Niezależnie od tego, czy jesteś nauczycielem, twórcą, naukowcem czy właśnie założyłeś swój własny start-up, wkrótce to w jaki sposób pozyskujesz i dzielisz się informacjami z innymi może zupełnie się zmienić. Wszystko za sprawą nowej dyrektywy o prawie autorskim na jednolitym rynku cyfrowym, nad którą prace właśnie dobiegają końca. Gdy dyrektywa zostanie uchwalona w Brukseli, zadaniem każdego z krajów członkowskich będzie wdrożenie nowych przepisów do swojego porządku prawnego.
Food as a purely private good prevents millions to get access to such a basic resource, since the purchasing power determines its access. With the dominant no money-no food rationality, hunger still prevails in a world of abundance. In this paper, the commons approach is applied to food, deconstructing food as a pure private good and reconstructing it as a commons that can be better produced and distributed by a tricentric governance system compounded by market rules, public regulations and collective actions.
