Blockchain Basics - A Beginner's...

Craig Dames

Blockchain technology has become one of the most revolutionary innovations of the 21st century, offering a new way to securely store and share data. At its core, a blockchain is a distributed ledger that records transactions across multiple computers in such a way that the registered transactions cannot be altered retroactively. This provides a level of security and transparency that is not possible with traditional, centralized databases. 
The concept of blockchain was first introduced in 2008 by an individual or group under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. It was initially designed as the underlying technology behind Bitcoin, the first decentralized cryptocurrency. However, its potential goes far beyond just digital currencies. Blockchain can be applied to a wide range of industries, including healthcare, finance, supply chain management, and more, providing a secure, transparent, and efficient way to handle data. 
A blockchain consists of a series of "blocks," which contain records of transactions. Each block is linked to the previous one, forming a chain. This chain of blocks is distributed across a network of computers, known as nodes, ensuring that all copies of the ledger are synchronized and identical. When a new transaction occurs, it is verified and added to the blockchain by the network participants. This decentralized nature eliminates the need for a central authority, making blockchain a powerful tool for fostering trust in a wide range of applications.

Against Technoableism -...

Ashley Shew

When Ashley Shew became a self-described "hard-of-hearing chemobrained amputee with Crohn's disease and tinnitus," there was no returning to "normal." Suddenly well-meaning people called her an "inspiration" while grocery shopping or viewed her as a needy recipient of technological wizardry. Most disabled people don't want what the abled assume they want—nor are they generally asked. 
 
 
 
In vibrant prose, Shew shows how we can create better narratives and more accessible futures by drawing from the insights of the cross-disability community. To forge a more equitable world, Shew argues that we must eliminate "technoableism"—the harmful belief that technology is a "solution" for disability; that the disabled simply await being "fixed" by technological wizardry; that making society more accessible and equitable is somehow a lesser priority. 
 
 
 
This badly needed introduction to disability expertise considers mobility devices, medical infrastructure, neurodivergence, and the relationship between disability and race. The future, Shew points out, is surely disabled—whether through changing climate, new diseases, or even through space travel. It's time we looked closely at how we all think about disability technologies and learn to envision disabilities not as liabilities, but as skill sets enabling all of us to navigate a challenging world.
