The Israeli government has cut off food, water, and fuel to 2 million people inside Gaza. Collective punishment is not only contrary to international law, it is inhumane and illogical. How will this deescalate the violence rather than radicalize many more? It is madness.

This article in Rolling Stone is a hell of a read. “I saw who was building the AI systems and their points of view. I saw what they were being used for, and I was like, ‘Oh, my God, we have a problem.’ ” — Timnit Gebru rollingstone.com/culture/cul… – at Philadelphia, PA

Great news — starting today, Pennsylvania will begin automatic voter registration for folks getting a driver's license or state ID card at the DMV. Hopefully even more states will follow.  pennlive.com/news/2023/09/go…

I’m so proud of STARGAZING, which takes on the idea of a personal connection with the night sky and brings together science, history, culture, and self-acceptance to help those who might be looking for something bigger in their lives.

Affirmative action was never a complete answer in the drive towards a more just society. But for generations of students who had been systematically excluded from most of America’s key institutions—it gave us the chance to show we more than deserved a seat at the table. In the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, it’s time to redouble our efforts.

If you care about your rights, you should care when other people are stripped of theirs.

We should ban surveillance advertising. Period. Companies should not be allowed to collect our data without our meaningful opt-in consent, and if that was the standard, there would be no data-collection: pluralistic.net/2022/03/22/m… 31/

Context ads perform about as well as behavioral ads - but they have a radically different power-structure. 27/
