The CEO that is being interviewed there was in the panama papers. He bought the house he lives in from the wife of one of the people who was jailed after the financial crysis. The people who were jailed didn't really receive much time at all and the whole thing has been misunderstood abroad. Honestly the country is no longer independent, the biggest joke is that our ruling political party, the independence party, is anything but... But these things are just the slow march to making it clear who rules us. Can't wait to see the identity company (also private) being sold in a similar way. I am doing an uprising (except the icelandic word 'uppreisn' also has the added meaning of 'dignity') - what does that entail? Well I believe that coercion is not a good foundation for anything supposedly legitimate. I want a more persuasive foundation and I guess that starts with making guix a useful OS for non-technical users via my "datalisp" project... I guess I should stop dragging my feet and make the website (datalisp.is) since I am opening this discussion. Whatever. The key idea is; we need to be able to trust our operating system, for that to happen we need a way to receive automatic updates without having a central source of truth, this is the oracle problem in disguise. The solution is to keep track of probabilistic estimates of [contextual] trust and basically do science (we haven't got a better way to do physics so I don't see how we are expecting anything better from "AI") to assess legitimacy... You can see my thing at sr.ht/~ilmu and if you are Icelandic; uppreisn.is (note that this thing is lost in google translation). I've decided I would rather die than earn money doing things I don't believe in and that almost happened recently so everything is a bit scattered. However I have a meetup starting next month and then there will be steady progress on datalisp. Edit for some clarifications, the sale discussed is blocked right now by the 'competition control' agency but I don't think they have enough grounds and the agencies that do are clearly corrupt.
