The number of people on the internet who think using shame will cause people to change or even listen shows the gut belief about the human mid works. Shame only EVER works if paired with respect. You must care about the opinion of a person before shame has any impact at all. Shaming people online especially is dumb with your own assumption that they respect you. Shame is a method of showing a lack of respect and poor opinion. Shame is respect denial but only actually after giving respect. You are being essentially an emotional drug dealer. They need their fix, but you HAVE to get them hooked first. If you haven't do that, people react terribly because literally all you are doing is disrespecting someone, straight off the bat and unless you are really charismatic, your chances of having the impact you want is near zero. #psychology#communication#shame

Some Narrative Conventions of Scientific Discourse
Rom Harré, 1990
"The academic ‘we’ might seem at first glance to be just a version of the editorial ‘we’. Like the latter it is mutedly egocentric but it is not mainly used to imply teamwork. Rather, it is used to draw the listener into complicity, to participate as something more than an audience. "
"The moral status of persons determines the epistemic status of their results. This becomes entirely intelligible if we think in terms of trust rather than truth. Trust in someone’s results depends very much on our faith in that person, whereas truth, so it seems to me, ought to be tied to trust in a methodology, regardless of who uses it, provided they use it competently. " - Harré p 93.
An AI function I would use:
During video calls, generate video of my face that always looks at the camera – not slightly down at my laptop keyboard, or sideways at the cat – in the interest of better interpersonal communication through eye contact.
In my version you get a generated 3D avatar that looks like you (no choice) and rather than streaming video you stream facial expression. You don't have to worry about lighting, your hair, or anything so you can just take the call. No more black screens in meetings.
Coups de colère, propos déplacés...Trois nouveaux conseillers démissionnent du cabinet de Prisca Thévenot. "Elle n'est pas correcte", soupire l'un d'eux dans Libé. Matignon se mure dans le silence. Les pire RH de France.
It's our first time there and we'd love connect.
Would you like to exchange best practices, tips, and/or knowledge over coffee? We are interested in #communication strategies for libraries and everything #OpenScience-related. Let us know if you want to meet up!
I am going to be super busy all day, but this response from the Office of the Information Commissioner of Canada just came into my inbox. I argued Public Safety Canada (emergency communications) services were violating privacy laws using corporate social media. They say they don't have jurisdiction to make the call. Would be interested in your guys thoughts on a response before I have time to think on mine. #Fediverse#OpenSocialWeb#Mastodon#Emergencies#Communication.
@chris Gov't of Canada should not be farming essential services of any nature to the profit-driven private sector. This should protect privacy as well as the integrity of the service in question, whatever it is.
@ordinaryluke Me too. 😢 I guess things turned bad somewhere in the second half of the 2000s, when tech became Big Tech, and social media became manipulative algorithm hell.
Faut-il encore le rappeler: la mise en page typographique d'un document est essentielle pour délivrer un message de manière claire. #fail#communication#pub
