say what you will about the myriad valid concerns with current LLMs but I personally will never get over the fact that Aaron Swartz was prosecuted to his literal death for downloading JSTOR and then a decade later, they downloaded & ingested the entire world and our IP laws just went ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Men will literally run for the United States senate instead of going to Alcoholics Anonymous.

I am going to re-up my occasional notice that @scolom.bsky.social can win a perfectly winnable race in Mississippi, if he had financial support and national interest (as some other people did in Maine). You know how cheap it is to buy ads in Mississippi?

let this be a lesson to deal with your feelings of gender anxiety and masculine inadequacy with a hobby or therapy or something and not a high stakes senate election

Phillipe, thank you for giving @menchik.bsky.social and me this generous invitation to reflect on our work! Hard to believe that @concernedjfaculty.bsky.social is only 18 months old. We've made so much good noise. And people are starting to listen.

🚨 🚨 🚨 NEW: A shocking @USCIS memo seems to declare that hundreds of thousands of immigrants living in this country and applying for green cards must instead apply for visas abroad; which could MASSIVELY disrupt lives. 🧵 on what we know, and what we don’t.

Policy Memorandum
SUBJECT: Adjustment of Status is a Matter of Discretion and Administrative Grace, and an Extraordinary Relief that Permits Applicants to Dispense with the Ordinary Consular Visa Process
Purpose
This memorandum reminds officers and the public that adjustment of status under section 245 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) is a matter of discretion and administrative grace not designed to supersede the regular consular processing of immigrant visas. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reaffirms this consistent and longstanding approach and declares as a matter of general policy its intention to faithfully apply the statutes consistently with this understanding.

"Bassett's removal therefore signals not merely a personnel change but an erosion of institutional ethics and academic freedom; Harvard has made clear that universal principles are tolerated only when they do not threaten power." Basset should be reinstated immediately.

It’s worth pointing out that automatic weapons were banned in Australia years ago. Notice that each shot is singular. Imagine how much worse this could have been. #BanAssaultWeaponsUS
