The NDIS, markets and self-regulation: If we build it will they come? | datanomics

June 15, 2016. The NDIS, markets and self-regulation: If we build it will they come? Excellent commentary on the problems with public markets – which by default fails in favour of suppliers at the expense of consumers. I recently was invited to speak at an event hosted by the Victorian Council of Social Services. On the topic of markets and human services. I spoke about the need for more active market management in disability services and was asked to write up the talk for Power to Persuade’s. Address ne...

September 17, 2016. The Illusion of Agency. At this year’s Innotribe Sibos, we have a session about digital ethics. Part of a full day on man-machine convergence. Some of that conversation will be about the use and control of data. With this post, I would like to add my perspective to that conversation, based on some recent thinking on human agency. At a recent MyData2016. I wanted to be that contrarian, and challenge a bit the assumptions. August 2, 2016. Googling Before Google: A Brief History of Search.

So, for instance, we see that Michael Connelly chooses Raymond Chandler's. Lauren Anderson writes about Agatha Christie's. In high school (based on the novel. By the way, I'm not fa...

Monthly writings in and around mathematics by James Propp. Will ’17 be the Year of the Pig? You probably haven’t heard of David C. Kelly. He doesn’t write best-sellers or give TED talks, or study the center of the galaxy or the human genome or the social impact of algorithms. But he’s inspired and nurtured hundreds of people who’ve done these things and much more. The vehicle of this inspiration is a summer program that that Allyn Jackson has called “ a national treasure. Whose Game of Life. 100% guarant...
