I've been using #Linux on and off for the last 10 years. Had times when I was on Linux for years at the time, and times when I used Windows.

It's astonishing for me how in a span of just a couple of years I went from being excited about my laptop getting the #Windows 11 upgrade to absolutely despising every second I have to use it for.

Back then every Windows news was a blessing. Now they're just new annoyed grunts...

We did a #road and #rail #trip from #Saskatchewan through #Alberta to #BritishColumbia, it was 4,761 km. Or Lisbon to Vienna to Stockholm. #Canada is an amazing country because you can travel to so many amazing #nations and #experience so many #cultures within it.
We travel in and through at least 18 #FirstNations lands, some #treaty, some #unceded. Check out native-land.ca/ to see more traditional homelands of #indigenous people.

I'm not posting this in agreement. Or not full agreement, anyway. It's been posted and shared on my feed in facebook. As a general principle: Absolutely. Your opinion about my experience is not as valid as my experience... usually.

The problem is that I'm a social scientist. That word "opinion" is carrying a lot of weight. If someone's ideas of what a non-lived experience is like are based on supposition, best guesses, and their own experience, then the graphic is valid: lived experience is much better.

However, if an "opinion" about my lived experience comes from the reported lived experiences from relatively representative thousand or so people, the opinion is probably more valid, for certain purposes/contexts.

"Validity" always has a context or target. No matter how much amazing research I have about a certain issue, my knowledge is never as good for an individual as that individual's lived experience. However, if "valid" means "generalizably true across lots of individuals," then one person's experience will never be as valid as a reasonable (lots of weight on that word) summation of many others' experiences. Another detail is whether one's interpretation of one's experiences (especially interpretation of causality) is necessarily more valid than interpretations by others who haven't lived the experience.

If you're feeling uncomfortable about this analysis, consider a parent whose child develops autism. The parent is fully convinced their kid's age 2 vaccinations were the cause. That parent has definitely had an experience, which included seeing their kid vaccinated, then seeing autism symptoms emerge. None of that means the parent's interpretation of that experience is accurate. No, the vaccines did not cause the autism, but try telling the parent that. They might tell you that they lived the experience so their interpretation is right.

And they're still wrong. Yes, the experiences they had are theirs and valid and valuable. That doesn't mean nobody else can have a more valid opinion about their experience--specifically, a more valid opinion about the causes of their child's autism.

This dynamic applies in many areas of our world: are soldiers' views of American foreign policy always more valid than non-soldiers" views? The soldiers lived the foreign policy experience, after all. Are a patient's views of their disease/diagnosis/disorder etc. always more valid than the views of medical professionals? The patient lives the experience, right?

In plenty of domains and applications one's lived experience should not be questioned by those who didn't live it. I'd say this should be the default in living our lives (hence my lack of concern about this meme even though I don't quite agree with it). However, the vague use of terms in messages like this might contribute to a belief, as Asimov said, that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge" (not Sagan; thanks, @courtcan) fueled by the insistence that one's interpretations of one's experiences are superior to all other interpretations.

🥁 '#Amazon zet vol in op #autonoom #rijden', zo meldde het bedrijf onlangs. En wel met een speciaal hiervoor gefabriceerde robotaxi: de Zoox! 🚕

Vergeet Tesla, Waymo of andere vehicles die op de markt zijn, aldus medeoprichter & CTO Jesse Levinson. 'We’re offering a #unique #experience for riders: the ride quality, the carriage-style seating, the roomy interior–we think all of this is going to be what sets us apart.' 🧢

De Zoox ga je eind dit jaar in verschillende Amerikaanse steden tegenkomen. Het voertuig heeft zowel voor als achter eenzelfde look, kan maximaal 120 km/per uur rijden (in de steden max 72) en een volle batterij is goed voor 16 uur aan ritjes.💥

'We’re #selling #rides, not vehicles', aldus CEO Aicha Evans. 'We want to offer the best experience at a competitive price.' 🏠

In de afgelopen 10 jaar heeft Amazon al de nodige tests gedaan, zowel op de weg als in simulatie. 🚸 Voorzien van de nieuwste AI en digitale snufjes: '8 laser lidars, 10 radar units, 18 digital cameras, 8 microphones (to hear emergency vehicles, for example) and 4 thermal cameras that can detect humans and animals in murky weather, dim lighting or even through steam and fog.'🚦

Volgens Forbes heeft Amazon de #beste #kaarten in handen en hebben partijen als Waymo, en binnenkort Tesla's Cybercap, het nakijken... 🎯
