I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

On the 5th day, Martha was successfully weaned off the machine, fully recovered & survived. Dr. Stahlman became her godmother. In a beautiful poetic circle, that first baby saved by the experimental machine grew up & spent her career working as a NICU nurse. Where? Vanderbilt. 🥳 #WomenInSTEM (3/3)

An intimate, split-composition photo of pioneer neonatologist Dr. Mildred Stahlman (1922–2024) seated on the left, next to her godmothered first-ever saved NICU patient, Martha Humphreys Lott, leaning in from the right inside a rustic log-cabin style room with brick flooring. Dr. Stahlman, late in life with thinning white hair parted down the middle, gazes forward with a calm, wide-eyed expression. She wears a cream-colored knit cardigan over a leopard-print blouse and sits in a chair draped in a vibrant orange and yellow geometric Native American-style blanket, her lower half covered by a soft blue fleece. Martha smiles warmly at the camera, wearing an ornate teal and brown paisley pattern blouse with her brunette hair pulled back. On the wooden wall behind Martha, a small framed black-and-white historical portrait hangs next to an antique oil lamp, bridging the scene across generations. The mood is deeply peaceful and historic, visually uniting the legendary pioneer of mechanical ventilation with the living legacy of her life’s work.

So a Saudi-owned farm was just casually draining Arizona groundwater like it was no big deal. Unlimited pumping. To grow alfalfa. For cows. Overseas. Meanwhile actual Arizonans are being told to conserve water. Kris Mayes saw that and said nope. Launched a full legal takedown against Fondomonte.

A day after The Late Show ended, Colbert hosted an episode of public access program Only In Monroe, reviving his 11-year-old gag. How bad is CBS/Paramount taking it? They issued copyright complaints for a show they don't own. 🤣 CBS would hate it if you watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DlF...

@MatthewKeysLive
Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

OOP New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!' www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Screenshotted excerpt from linked article reading as follows:

"In public, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has cultivated a reputation for care and caution. The papers reveal a different side of him. At a critical moment for the country and the court, the papers show, he acted as a bulldozer in pushing to stop Mr. Obama’s plan to address the global climate crisis.

When colleagues warned the chief justice that he was proposing an unprecedented move, he was dismissive. “I recognize that the posture of this stay request is not typical,” he wrote. But he argued that the Obama plan, which aimed to regulate coal-fired plants, was “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the power sector,” and too big, costly and consequential for the court not to act immediately."
