Glad to be able to contribute to the Battle Studies series! Savo Island was just a wildly important battle for US evolution during WWII. It shocked the Navy and produced a bevy of valuable organizational innovations that contributed to success later in the war.

First big event from @gu-aidc.bsky.social! As AI continues to rapidly proliferate, we need to make sure it doesn't simultaneously undermine the people's place in politics. How exactly we do that is still up in the air. Come think about it with us. All are invited! Should be a fun night!
