Computerism (noun)

Posted on by

Computerism (noun): A form of discrimination or bias where individuals are judged, stereotyped, or treated differently based on their choice of computer operating system (e.g., macOS vs. Windows vs. Linux) or browser preference (e.g., Chrome vs. Safari vs. Firefox). This phenomenon often manifests as social stigma, exclusion, or assumptions about a person’s technical skills, personality, or values based on their technology preferences.

For example, a macOS user might be labeled as “trendy but impractical,” while a Linux user could be stereotyped as “overly technical” or “elitist.” Similarly, browser preferences might spark debates or judgments about privacy, efficiency, or mainstream conformity.

“Jason’s blatant computerism was evident when he refused to collaborate with Sarah, simply because she preferred macOS over Windows.

A computerist is someone who engages in or perpetuates discrimination, bias, or stereotyping based on another person’s choice of computer operating system, software, or browser. They may judge or treat others differently because of their tech preferences, often making assumptions about their personality, competence, or values.

For example, a computerist might mock someone for using Internet Explorer, assume all Mac users are creative professionals, or stereotype Linux users as overly technical and antisocial.

In a broader sense, a computerist could also describe someone deeply passionate about computer systems and their associated cultures, though this usage is less common.

“Don’t be such a computerist—just because I use Linux doesn’t mean I think I’m better than everyone else!”

 

 

Hardinge TT – floating Tap

TT Tap Collets are used in the Hardinge® TT-5/8 and TT-3/4 Tap Holders. These collets are stocked in ANSI (USA) and ISO (England) standards. The ANSI Inch-series tap collets relate to taps manufactured in the United States. Metric collets manufactured in the United States have the same shank sizes as those used for the inch series. The metric collets manufactured to the ISO standard have different shank sizes than the ANSI series metric collets.

In memory of Mick Ellis

Posted on by

 

In memory of Mick Ellis, whose influence shaped a generation in the media world.

Mick had a huge impact on my life – he was the reason I deviated from Catholic school into the “sinful” path of multimedia. His work on TV Soul Time was a defining moment for me, helping me decide which high school to attend. His media studies program from grade 9 drew me in, and I became one of his mentees, hooked from the start. Mick and I worked countless events together – pep rallies, plays, sock hops – creating hours upon hours of media that built my skills and passion for this field.

Russ Ramsden - Tony Kuzub - Mick Ellis

Russ Ramsden – Tony Kuzub – Mick Ellis

Mick, Russ, and I tackled at least a dozen Gateway plays, and every project we took on was filled with lessons that stuck with me. Mick introduced me to multi-track audio recording, even gifting me a copy of “SAW” so we could push our audio-visual work to new heights. That experience shifted my career, opening my eyes to what was possible in media, and to this day, I wouldn’t be where I am without those early projects.

Mick helped me understand the media landscape – how to tell stories, to motivate, and to wield the art of sound and visuals in ways that captivate audiences. I often reached out just to say hello and to thank him for the countless opportunities, encouragement, and wisdom he provided. Even now, with each new experience, I’m brought back to those days in his classroom.

Mick, you were not only a mentor but a true friend. My thoughts are with his family, friends, and everyone lucky enough to have known him. He will be greatly missed.

It is with broken hearts that we have to say goodbye to our beloved Mick. Our husband, father, friend, grandfather – our rock, Mick. Mick died on August 18 after a short illness from cancer. He loved life and his family beyond measure. Mick is survived by his wife and best friend of 54 years, Lorraine; his children, Erin (Dany), Mike (Kathleen), and Dan; grandchildren, Malcolm and Gillian; brothers, Peter (Maria) and Colin (Susan); sisters-in-law, Linda and Lynne; and 9 nieces and nephews along with their children.

Mick has been an actor, a woodworker, a musician, a consummate fix-it guy and DIY dude, an artist, a media studies pioneer, a beer-maker, a gardener, a student, a teacher, and above all a dad and husband. He had an appreciation for everyday joys, every day. “Oh man, that’s good!” he would exclaim over each evening cup of coffee. If he could creatively salvage something into usefulness the whole day was “great!” Relentlessly positive and gifted with seemingly endless energy, nothing was ever too much trouble for him. He showed his care through action, perpetually willing to lend a helping hand, especially to his (sometimes needy) family.

He was an educator who left a lasting impression on students and colleagues. Many former students from his years teaching at Evan Hardy Collegiate and running audio-visual programs through the Saskatoon School Board have sought him out to reconnect and share the ways he impacted them as a teacher. He truly was a pioneer in his field, creating lasting programs such as Telemedia.

Mick was a dedicated environmental steward, and ingrained the ethos of reduce, re-use, recycle into his children. More recently, he described saving energy as his hobby, and he derived great joy from checking the energy production of his solar panels every day.

We are bereft, but Mick loved life and so we will strive to carry on that tradition, at times through bleary eyes, however working to live with joy in our hearts, one scrap piece of wood re-purposed or quiet morning savouring a good book at a time.

A Celebration of Mick’s life will be held at Glass and Lumber, 432 20th St. W, on Sunday, September 15 from 1-5 p.m., presentation at 2 p.m. Mick had an intense dislike of formal wear, so please wear whatever you’re comfortable in.

Charitable giving was important to Mick, so rather than flowers, if you would like, his family suggests that a tribute donation is a loving way to honour him. Some of his favourite charities included: Doctors Without Borders, Meewasin Valley Authority, and EGadz. (Also, hug your loved ones and unplug your not-in-use appliances.)
