Join us as we dissect the moral and psychological landscapes carved out by platforms that amplify the loudest voices and often leave the silent majority unheard. From examining confirmation bias to the frenzy of algorithm-driven content, we shine a light on how our online habits mold polarized perceptions on urgent issues like politics and climate change.Our conversation takes you through the labyrinth of online engagement, where anonymity can give rise to the most extreme voices—and sometimes the most inauthentic interactions. Discover how the norms vary across platforms: LinkedIn's professional demeanor versus the witty banter of Twitter or the curated lifestyles on Instagram. We also ponder the implications of AI-generated content, questioning how it might alter our trust and authenticity in digital spaces. Learn why unfollowing toxic influencers could be the mental health upgrade you didn't know you needed.Finally, we unpack the psychological intricacies of personality traits that thrive—or suffer—under the scrutiny of social media. Is your social media feed a fast-food diet for the mind? Are we more tribal than we care to admit? With insights into the role of open science and AI, this episode doesn't just stop at identifying the problems; it suggests pathways to a healthier, more authentic digital experience.

On this episode of The Tyler Tech Podcast, we're bringing you Digital Technologies within Regulatory Agencies: Usage and Perceptions from Regulation Matters: a CLEAR conversation, a podcast from the Council on Licensure, Enforcement and Regulation (CLEAR).CLEAR, in collaboration with Tyler, conducted a survey this past February, which targeted over 7,000 CLEAR stakeholders, representing more than 400 regulatory agencies, colleges, and bodies. The primary aim was to understand the use and perception of digital technologies within regulatory agencies.Key insights from the survey reveal the following:Online Services: A significant number of agencies have adopted online user portals, with mobile access being a common feature. However, only a few have developed mobile-specific apps, highlighting a gap in mobile service provision.Payment Systems: The importance of centralized payment systems is emphasized, with a noticeable shift towards electronic payments over traditional methods like checks. This change aligns with broader societal trends towards digital financial transactions.Public Engagement: Regulatory agencies are focusing on improving online interactions with both licensees and the public. Enhanced mobile access and user-friendly digital interfaces are critical for meeting these goals.Host Line Dempsey talks with Ronne Hines, regulatory consultant and former CLEAR president; Thomas Jackson, general manager of state regulatory with Tyler Technologies; and Michael Teeters, senior product manager with Tyler Technologies, who all contributed to the survey and provided their expert analysis. The discussion on the Regulation Matters: a CLEAR conversation podcast delves into the details of these findings, offering valuable perspectives on the progress and challenges faced by regulatory agencies in the digital age.You can find more information and download the full report at this link: Survey Report: Perspectives on Online Engagement.We also detail City Hall Selfie Day, an initiative created by Engaging Local Government Leaders (ELGL), which takes place on Thursday, August 15th.

In our latest episode, Rick and Kaleem dive into a multifaceted conversation with Jeff Frick, the Founder and Principal of Menlo Creek Media and host of the "Turn the Lens" and "Work 20XX" podcasts.A distinguished professional with experience at major companies like Mitsubishi and Intel, Jeff is a remote work visionary! He draws inspiration from his extensive experience with "the Cube," where he conducted thousands of interviews at tech conferences, underscoring the importance of natural conversation over scripted responses. For him, digital engagement emphasizes the crucial difference between reach and engagement. Genuine engagement, which requires time, effort, and meaningful interactions with the community, is far more valuable than broad reach that can be bought through ads.The undeniable evolution of video production and the significance of transcripts in making video content searchable and accessible are clear. In Jeff's current area of expertise, it is evident that content should be planned with a focus on evergreen topics rather than fleeting news to ensure it remains relevant and useful over time.Content creators today can align their work with social media algorithms to enhance visibility and engagement. The goal should be building a real community and leveraging the algorithm's ability to connect like-minded individuals. Jeff stresses the importance of authentic interaction in this process, as he builds his projects only this way!Regarding the evolution of remote work, its current state, and its future, Jeff focuses on the transformative period of 2020, when companies were forced to adopt remote work due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The outdated mindset of some managers who believe physical presence is necessary to monitor employees' work is a retrograde notion. The shift towards asynchronous work and the use of digital tools are fueling the next steps of the future of work, particularly the consumerization of IT! For Jeff, the path forward is clear. Even with the recurring theme of "return to office" initiatives, the trend is moving towards more flexible, team-level agreements on work arrangements, emphasizing management based on objectives rather than tasks. Society never reverts to its past state, so new companies, unburdened by traditional office expenses, will likely outperform incumbents. Wall Street will pressure older companies to justify their expenses compared to more efficient newcomers. Younger generations, accustomed to remote work and digital tools, will drive these changes.From the specifics of media production to broader themes of digital engagement and the future of work, this conversation is insightful and useful for everyone remote! Jeff's views highlight the changing nature of media and the increasing importance of authentic engagement and meaningful discussions in a digital age. Tune in, give it a listen, and connect with our guest on all his platforms. It was a pleasure, Jeff!Learn more about Jeff:Jeff's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jefrick/Turn The Lens Podcast: https://www.turnthelenspodcast.com/Work 20XX Podcast: https://www.work20xx.com/

Welcome to another episode of "Father and Joe" with Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks. In this thought-provoking discussion, we tackle a pressing question: "Is social media net more evil than beneficial?" Join us as we explore the complexities of social media and its impact on society, relationships, and personal well-being.Key Quotes from the Episode:"Social media is net more evil than it is beneficial. I get the benefits of it, but on the net, I believe that it's much more negative because of its incentivation package." - Joe Rockey"The call to hospitality, humility, kindness is all out the window. All of these platforms essentially reward extremism." - Joe Rockey"What does good and bad mean? How do you measure that? Maybe we should measure these things around the development of virtue and holiness." - Father Boniface Hicks"The medium is inherently problematic unless there are legal or social pressures to change the algorithms to protect the innocent." - Father Boniface HicksIn this episode, Joe Rockey shares his candid thoughts on social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok. He questions whether these platforms, designed to connect people, actually promote meaningful relationships or if they foster an environment of extremism and superficial interactions.Father Boniface Hicks adds depth to the conversation by examining the metrics we use to judge the value of social media. Should we measure it by societal outcomes, profitability, focus, or the development of virtues and holiness? He challenges us to consider whether the potential benefits, such as the inspirational content of figures like Jordan Peterson and Matt Fradd, outweigh the negative impacts.Topics Discussed:The incentive structures of social media and their impact on behavior.The difference between public interaction on social media and more intimate forms of communication.The potential for social media to detract from real-life, meaningful relationships.Examples of positive social media influence versus negative societal trends.The role of virtue and holiness in evaluating social media's impact.Join us for this engaging discussion that encourages deep contemplation about the role of social media in our lives. Are the connections we make online a poor substitute for real relationships, or do they offer unique benefits that we should embrace? How do we navigate the complex landscape of social media while maintaining our values and fostering genuine human connection?Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more insightful discussions.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: CEA's work in 2022, published by MaxDalton on December 21, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. CEA and the EA community have both grown and changed a lot in the year since our last org-wide update. We (the CEA Executive Office team) have written this post to update the community on the work CEA has done in 2022. What is CEA? CEA (The Centre for Effective Altruism) is dedicated to nurturing a community of people who are thinking carefully about the world's biggest problems and taking impactful action to solve them. We hope that this community can help to build a radically better world: so far it has helped to save over 150,000 lives, reduced the suffering of millions of farmed animals, and begun to address some of the biggest risks to humanity's future. We do this by helping people to consider their ideas, values and options for and about helping, connecting them to advisors and experts in relevant domains, and facilitating high-quality discussion spaces. Our hope is that this helps people find an effective way to contribute that is a good fit for their skills and inclinations. We do this by... Running EA Global conferences and supporting community-organized EAGx conferences. Funding and advising hundreds of local effective altruism groups. Building and moderating the EA Forum, an online hub for discussing the ideas of effective altruism. Supporting community members through our community health team. We also produce the Effective Altruism Newsletter, which goes out to more than 50,000 subscribers, and run EffectiveAltruism.org, which hosts a collection of recommended resources. Attendees at EAG London in April Our priority is helping people who have heard about EA to deeply understand the ideas, and to find opportunities for making an impact in important fields. We think that top-of-funnel growth is likely already at or above healthy levels, so rather than aiming to increase the rate any further, we want to make that growth go well. (This is a shift from our thinking in 2021. The main reason for this shift is that we think that the growth rate of EA increased sharply in 2022.) You can read more about our strategy here, including how we make some of the key decisions we are responsible for, and a list of things we are not focusing on. One thing to note: we do not think of ourselves as having or wanting control over the EA community. We believe that a wide range of ideas and approaches are consistent with the core principles underpinning EA, and encourage others to identify and experiment with filling gaps left by our work. Our legal structure CEA is, like Giving What We Can, 80,000 Hours and a bunch of other projects, a project of the Effective Ventures group — the umbrella term for EVF (a UK registered charity) and CEA USA Inc. (a US registered charity), which are separate legal entities which work together. (We know the US charity name is confusing! To make matters even more complicated, until recently EVF was also known as CEA — that confusion is why EVF changed its name.) 2022 in summary 2022 was a year of continued growth for CEA and our programs. What went well? Growth of our key public-facing programs Many of our programs scaled up very rapidly, while maintaining (in our opinion) roughly constant quality. Some examples of this (with more examples and details below): Events: The number of connections made at our events grew by around 5x this year, which should help many more people find a way to contribute to important problems. Online: Engagement on the EA Forum grew by around 2.9x, helping the spread of important new ideas and richness of discussion. Groups: 208 organizers went through our University Groups Accelerator Program (10x growth for a new program starting from a low base), receiving 8 weeks of mentorship designed to accelerate EA journeys for organ...

Ryan and Charlotte Elia discuss creating digital content for seekers, focusing on your particular audience, and discerning which tools and tactics best suit your congregation. "The future of the church is niche, and that doesn't mean all of our congregations are gonna be like very focused on one segment of the population. But I think ministry as a whole is going to be niche, that we're leaning more into a time where the way that we make meaning and create meaning for ourselves is very individualized." - Rev.

Episode 10: Data to the Rescue?  July 1, 2021  Dave Lankes & Mike Eisenberg We agree on something “data to protect you" is an oxymoron. Data can be dangerous–particularly in the hands of corporations, governments, hackers, scammers, & even well-intentioned non-profits, public service providers, and even libraries and librarians. Public libraries monitor patrons on social media to market services to better “meet needs.” School libraries create student Google profiles and capture user data. Academic libraries seek to address mental health issues identified through analysis of user data. We understand the well-meaning intentions to help. But do we really want anyone to be able to collect and aggregate all this data about anyone & everyone? To make sense of the whole “data” thing, we are joined by Megan Oakleaf, Associate Professor, Syracuse University iSchool. Megan researches & teaches library value/impact, outcomes assessment, learning analytics, evidence-based decision making, information literacy instruction, and information services.  She is also Director of Online Engagement. Learn with us about data use and misuse.
