Austin Kocher, PhD 🌎Can't believe I still have to say this, but ... It has been 3,108 days, or 8.5 years, since ICE has had a properly vetted and congressionally-confirmed director as required by law.
David SmithMy goodness, Liquid Glass overlaid over a panning radar map is something else. Totally mesmerizing. I just found myself sitting here slowly panning around for a few minutes.
Must get back to work…
Peter Gleick"Thoughts and prayers" does sound a lot nicer than "I didn't do anything before to prevent this foreseeable disaster and I'm not going to do anything now."
Heidi Li Feldman“ELLIS’ EXPERIENCE IS the latest in a rising trend on the conservative internet: right-wing accounts blaming transgender people for a national tragedy or a violent incident, scouring for pictures and unverified clues to falsely connect them as perpetrators of tragedies without any evidence.”

A Trans Pilot Was Falsely Blamed for a Plane Crash. Now She’s Fighting the Right-Wing Disinfo Machine
National Guard pilot Jo Ellis is suing a right-wing influencer for falsely blaming her for a DC crash that killed 67 people. A WIRED review reveals 12 similar incidents of scapegoating trans people.
Lex FriedmanA few years back, Spotify offered me a job paying me an obscene amount of money as their global head of podcasting. More than you’re thinking. Nope, more than that. Obscene. More than anyone will ever offer to pay me again.
I turned it down because I think Spotify has evil vibes. No music streaming company is great, but Spotify is uniquely awful. Switch. https://sfba.social/@drahardja/114799567495238566

Are you still on #Spotify? Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek has raised €600M for his new startup, which is developing AI TECH FOR WAR. Ek still owns 9% of Spotify, but has 37% voting control. His net worth went from $2.5B to $10B in the last two years alone, on the back of paying musicians a pittance in royalties. And don’t forget: • Spotify spent $250M of your subscription dollars to invite Joe Rogan to spew his disinformation on their platform. • They’re still trying to embrace and extinguish Podcasts. • They’re developing in-house, AI-generated “music” so users will play them (royalty-free) instead of music created by humans (who demand royalty). And now, he’s using his wealth, created by your subscriptions, to fund tech that will use AI to literally murder humans in war. Stop funding him. Quit Spotify now. #QuitSpotify #music #ai #militaryTech #techbro “Spotify’s CEO invests $1 billion into an AI military start-up — and musicians are fuming” https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/leaders/spotifys-ceo-invests-1-billion-into-an-ai-military-startup-and-musicians-are-fuming/news-story/78805666e2374281801622066dc87319
