or even brutal. Like the one from New Zealand two weeks ago. Anyway, banning any piece will solve
nothing. Why we can share and talk about Mein Kampf but not about manifesto of this guy. I don’t
want to say there is something worth sharing, and I understand what he did based on his manifesto.
But is outlawing helpful? Putting aside it can be easily found on the Internet anyway, how we can
be sure there is no one else thinking about the same thing?</p>
<p>If I were some guy with similar thoughts, I wouldn’t think that my thoughts are bad based on the law.
It would probably even deepened my thoughts. I would think the problem is even worse and fought
even more.</p>
<p>From my perspective, it’s better, instead of banning, to understand his motives and explain
it to others. For example, his main case is about birthrates of intruders (such as Muslims and others)
of Europe, which is wrong as far as I know. There is an excellent TED talk explaining it. I think
something like this talk would be a much better response than making new laws.</p>
<p>I understand it’s hard and also that people like to live in a social bubble. People suffer from
social proof and cognitive dissonance. Some people will not change their minds, no matter what.
Probably a lot of us, actually. I still believe it’s better to have a discussion. Maybe after
the debate, we wouldn’t achieve anything, but at least we wouldn’t make it worse.</p>
<p>In case you read the manifesto and see some good points, look at good marks from the other
side. This presentation is based on statistics collected by the United Nations, which is, at least for
me, more trustworthy.</p>

<p>I pay attention to news around computers and computer programming, after all,
it’s my job.</p>
<p>But I don’t read the news.</p>
<p>Why? Well, because it’s stressful and it will not help anything. Media like
to focus on single events. Negative events. Most of the time, without a context.
Because this is what we like to read.</p>
<p>We like reading stories about how celebrities don’t have an awesome life as
it appears, so we don’t have to envy and then we can feel good.</p>
<p>We like reading how everything is wrong. And by everything, we mean everyone
around us. That problems are politicians we didn’t vote for and stupidity of
people who vote for them.</p>
<p>We like reading about terrorist attacks, mostly when it’s an attack from
a group of people we don’t like, such as Muslims. Because it brings fuel
to more stories like that.</p>
<p>But we don’t care that our <a href="/we-live-in-awesome-time/">life is awesome</a>.
It looks like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbuUW9i-mHs">war is over</a>.
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvOnXh3NN9w">Muslims are not the problem</a>.
It doesn’t have a catchy title. And then we are depressed and overwhelmed
by the amount of news.</p>
<p>In past months I read some old books from different fields and guess what?
We haven’t changed much. So-called news isn’t actually news. Sure, it’s
what is happening around us.</p>
<p>But… in general, there are still the same problems, just shifted a little bit
to some other places. There is so much we can learn from history. I’m sad
school helped me not to like history at all. I really hate to remember dates
and names. But the story of our history is so amazing, and we can learn so much
from it!</p>
<p>And not just from history, there are a lot of fields we can learn a lot
from! It’s much better to learn something <em>new</em> than reading <em>news</em>.</p>
<p>We have a big privilege. It hasn’t been long ago when we had very limited or
no access at all to books. Or even to books in our language. Nowadays, we have
access not only to books but to all the knowledge and all the wisdom of
humanity in our pockets at hand.</p>
<p>We should use that privilege.</p>
<p>Read less of the news and read more books. Try <a href="/science-channels/">science</a>.</p>
<p>It’s worth it.</p>
<p>And if you want or need to watch the news, at least don’t trust them by
default. Be skeptical. Check everything before you accept what they say.
Definitely verify those sources which use ads to make money. Because when
revenue is shaped by the count of ads shown to you; they will show you what
many of you want to see instead what is real.</p>

is a lot in my opinion. I don’t mind to have a toast with alcohol, but we
don’t have to make an alcoholic toast for everything and every time. :-)</p>
<p>Alcohol is a toxin. Same as sugar. We like it, and our bodies can handle
it. But it’s not healthy to drink few drinks every day… to have a longer life.</p>
<p>I don’t believe any study proving drinking can prolong life. Alcohol
is a toxin for sure, and I can imagine it can prolong life because it
helps to deal with stress, which is killing us as well. But, then,
it’s quantity over quality.</p>
<p>It’s already a few years when I thought that maybe I don’t need to buy
a drink every time I go somewhere and drink non-alcoholic beverages instead.
It’s only a few months I’m really doing that.</p>
<p>It took me some time to overcome so much of exposure everywhere.
I was not addicted, and anyway, I wasn’t able to <strong>not</strong> order wine at dinner
in a restaurant or drank at a party. Probably I would still be
doing that if I hadn’t a girlfriend who is abstinent. That helped me a lot.
Can’t imagine how big challenge it’s for addicts lost in a crowd of addicts.</p>
<p>Sadly, we need alcohol to have fun. Even more, if it’s because
we have a lot of stress which we don’t know how to overcome without
alcohol.</p>
<p>I’m not firmly against alcohol. Alcohol is like sugar. It’s okay,
but not healthy in significant numbers. I just want to point out that maybe
we use alcohol unnecessarily too often.</p>
<p>I think it’s perfectly fine to go to a beer festival, wine degustation,
or have <a href="/whisky-i-like/">whisky night</a>. Just let’s not drink everywhere.
Let’s have maybe shorter but more quality life!</p>
<p>By the way, because of drinking, girls have a harder time hiding pregnancy
when they refuse to have a glass of wine when they usually don’t. :-P</p>

We can keep in touch even when we move to another city or
country or during traveling or simply always. But…</p>
<p>We got used to using social networks too much and put our content
there. Which is a problem as our content is not, in fact, ours.
Social networks own it, and they can do whatever they
want with it.</p>
<p>For example, they can filter what you are going to see from your
friends or followers. They can take your posts down. Disable your
account. Even a whole social network can be turned off! Your content
is displayed in a way social network wants. Next to your content
are ads without any profit for you (except some exceptions).</p>
<p>Social networks are like bad “phone operators.”</p>
<p>That’s why I think blogs are still essential and should
be used more instead of social networks.</p>
<p>We shouldn’t delete our profiles and leave social networks. No.
We just should use it for communication only and share our content
in a way, it’s really ours.</p>
<p>I don’t want to read your social profile. I don’t want to use
my free time to read many <em>useless communicating</em> posts to find
your interesting content. I want to read your blog. I want to add
your blog to my RSS reader, so I don’t miss your excellent posts. :-)</p>
<p>We don’t need Facebook or Instagram or Twitter or any other social
network to share our thoughts. We can stay on the Internet and talk
to each other without any big brother. We can use blogs. :-)</p>
<p>Let’s share our thoughts on blogs and use social networks to discuss
where we can meet again for dinner!</p>

<p>We should fix all of that. We are doing that. We are trying to do better.
We discuss those topics. We are thinking about quotas. We are trying to
have good diversity.</p>
<p>Well, ehm, really? Does some quotas or building good diversity really help?
I don’t think so. Bringing the quota program means another type of discrimination
and really tough days, not just for recruiting teams. Very well <a href="https://blog.cleancoder.com/uncle-bob/2017/10/04/WomenInDemand.html">wrote about that</a>
Uncle Bob a few months ago. It’s about women in software engineering, but it
can be applied to any mentioned problem.</p>
<p>I understand the frustrations of some people with those problems. But any extreme
solution will solve nothing. At least in my opinion. I could be wrong, but
I don’t support any radical solution, and I fully agree with Uncle Bob.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>A quota policy may seem to be helping women by offering them a greater chance
of employment. However, at least in this simplistic thought experiment, the
net result is to tilt the playing field in favor of men.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I don’t think I should be worried. We all should be. Only very few exceptions
would benefit from quotas.</p>Smart Design2018-03-26T21:57:58+00:002018-03-27T07:19:29+00:00Michal Hořejšektag:blog.horejsek.com,2018-03-26:/smart-design<p>In a world with people, we have <a href="https://thehackernews.com/2018/03/facebook-cambridge-analytica.html">a Cambridge Analytica

While the rest of the world is full of smart design. Watching any series from
David Attenborough (even if he is the only narrator) full of nature is so
<em>peaceful</em>, amazing, and educational…</p>
<p>When I was young, I was so excited about computers and so, but now I’m very
skeptical. <a href="/im-not-afraid-of-ai/">I’m not scared of Artificial
Intelligence</a> or something.
<a href="/technology-is-double-edged-sword/">Technology is double-edged sword</a>, and I can’t help myself, I’m afraid that <em>dark edge</em> is
bigger and bigger. We have devices and services with cool abilities, but there
is a big problem who can control it… Actually, several days ago there was nice
XKCD about that:</p>
<p><a href="https://xkcd.com/1968/"> <img alt="" src="/images/smart-design/medium_robot_future.png"> </a></p>
<p>I think it’s time for everybody to really deal with what we do on the
Internet. I’m not a fan of campaigns like #deletefacebook. Well, we can all
leave Facebook, I would be glad, it’s a horrible platform, and I use it only
because of Messenger where I can contact all my friends. But it will not end
there. Do you know, for example, that WhatsApp or Instagram is owned by
Facebook? If you want to really leave, good, but use <a href="https://signal.org/">simple and secure
Signal</a>. Don’t also forget about like button everywhere
with shadow users.</p>
<p>Something else has to happen: you need to… no, you have to be a master of your
device and what you read.</p>
<p>Delete apps you don’t use or need so much. More than 80 apps on the phone are
weird. Verify what permissions your apps have. Keep only needed permissions
(Settings > Apps > App permissions on latest Android). Any app with
wrong permission can be dangerous. Don’t forget that 2FA includes your text
messages and an app that can read them… Or are you aware that
your phone has two cameras and a microphone? An app that has access to that can
listen to everything you say or even see you…</p>
<p>Set up notifications in a way that is not disturbing. You don’t need to be
notified someone tweeted, nor even someone messaged you! Read messages and news
when YOU have time. Turn off sound for every notification except call. Enjoy
that freedom!</p>
<p>And mostly, don’t read the news on <a href="/why-i-dont-trust-recommendation-systems/">platforms which decides what and in which
order you see</a>, like Facebook. Good old pal RSS is still around, not going anywhere
and does an excellent job. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS">What is RSS?</a>
It’s a format that can use your favorite magazines and blogs to send new
content to your RSS reader. Before I created my reader, I used
<a href="https://feedly.com/">Feedly</a>. Give it a try. :-)</p>
<p>…what I was saying? Oh, yes. Nature is full of smart design, so animals can be
dumb and live happily. Cities are full of smart devices, making a lot of
obstacles. We have to be smart to use them.</p>Can You Help With a Political Question?2018-01-22T12:49:57+00:002018-01-23T11:45:45+00:00Michal Hořejšektag:blog.horejsek.com,2018-01-22:/can-you-help-with-a-political-question<p>Ok, so I have those struggles. I think I’m not alone. Actually, I know I’m
not.</p>

will definitely be less, probably …</p><p>Ok, so I have those struggles. I think I’m not alone. Actually, I know I’m
not.</p>
<p>Let’s start with a little bit different question. In how many fields anyone
could be an expert? My personal feeling is about three, but the average
will definitely be less, probably just one. For example, I think I’m an expert
in one field, computer programming. I feel when I decide how to solve some
problem, I know for sure the result is not going to be a disaster. Because I
put a lot of energy always to read, learn, try, use, everything. It’s my
daily job, and I also do some projects at home. Without programming at home,
I wouldn’t feel like an expert at all, yet. So it’s like 8+ hours a day. Every
day. For more than ten years already.</p>
<p>I also have other hobbies (for example biggest one right now is dancing and
helping salsa community), into which I put a lot of energy as well, but I’m
unable to say if what I’m doing is right or no. I need much more time and
practice. I’m not sure about any decision; I decide only based on intuition.
You could see that on results, sometimes it makes perfect sense, sometimes no.</p>
<p>Of course, those two hobbies take a lot of energy that I don’t have time for
anything else. The day has only 24 hours…</p>
<p>Now comes my first struggle: if to be able to decide appropriately takes a lot of
studies, how could I vote for some candidate I barely know? It seems it’s better
to let vote people who keep an eye on politics, at least, every other day. But
actually, it means let vote people who think they know what’s happening in
politics. Which sounds just horrible.</p>
<p>I think I know what many of you are going to think now, like to read a bit about what’s happening in my government every day is not too much work.
Ok, try to think of something you like and something you don’t like and
compare results. Definitely, the result of something you like is going to be far
more effective and better.</p>
<p>To put it into my second struggle: many people say people have a short memory
and cannot remember the past of candidates. I would, for sure, fall into that
category. Because politics isn’t something I like, I would have a problem remembering all details, even major ones! Another question is if that even
matters. People can change and deserve a second chance, right? Let’s be honest: who of us has a perfect past?</p>
<p>That question reminds me another struggle: let’s say I don’t have previous
struggles at all and I want to vote, but there is no <em>perfect</em> candidate for
me (by perfect, I mean the best option available). Whom I should vote for, the
most perfect one available (but unpopular, so help to some popular bad one for
me) or tactically vote for someone who could defeat that bad one (for me) and
would it be okayish?</p>
<p>Yeah, politics is very complicated. Probably I shouldn’t care about that at all
and just pick some newspapers, let them do the job of watching every move and
keep me notified. The problem is, when I did that, I wasn’t feeling this was
working. I’m not saying it was better before and nowadays there is a problem
with fake news and so on so it cannot work anymore. It’s the same as before as
I dig into history from time to time. But this is like a chicken-egg problem
because now I need to choose not a candidate, but a source of information about
candidates. Which source is trying to be as objective as possible? Which
source is not connected with any side? So many aspects!</p>
<p>This is also my last struggle: which source to follow not to be disgusted?
Because many reports are subjective, side-oriented, topic-oriented, … For
example, right now, in the Czech Republic, it looks like everybody wants just to defeat the current president. I don’t care if it’s right or not, but it’s not
quality journalism I want to follow.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>To summarise it, everyone should vote during the election, right? But how I can
vote with a clear conscience? Let me know your opinion!</p>
<p>Maybe I just should ignore everything, vote by feeling, and don’t care later if
it was the right decision. And without any feeling not vote at all. Because life
is short to do something you don’t like.</p>

<p>So… who is afraid of AI? <a href="/im-not-afraid-of-ai/">Not me</a>. I just hate how it’s used everywhere nowadays and it just sucks. Pretty
hard.</p>Movie by Artificial Intelligence2017-11-30T18:03:40+00:002017-11-30T18:03:43+00:00Michal Hořejšektag:blog.horejsek.com,2017-11-30:/movie-by-artificial-inteligence<p>Not long ago, I was writing about how <a href="/im-not-afraid-of-ai/">I’m not afraid of artificial

<p>I’m going to add just one note: I’m sure one day we (as humanity) will look
back to this video and see how amazingly clever and deep that script was.
Trust me. :-D By the way… I had almost the same feeling watching this video as
