As of this weekend, I've been based in Vancouver, BC for a year. To celebrate, I wrote a newsletter about @alexis-madrigal.bsky.social's THE PACIFIC CIRCUIT, having a garden, and some of the things I've been up to this past while: buttondown.com/metafoundry/...

There’s so much happening right now, I thought I’d put together a running thread on the dismantling of #climate and research and knowledge infrastructure in the United States 🧵

As someone who increasingly relies on the blogblog for local news… I endorse this idea. Looking to do something useful but not sure what? Write clearly? Don’t mind attending the occasional public meeting? Blogblog may be for you. civicfutures.substack.com/p/in-the-loop

If researchers are going to do right by families and young people on the impact of AI on mental health, we need to get our act together. We need to learn from the mistakes we've made on screens, social media, and smart phones. Quite happy to see our @oiioxford.bsky.social team's efforts published!

"It was ... a totally different city government. There were more people of color and queer people than in any other city commission, cumulatively, in Portland’s history. There were working-class people who worried about when their health insurance would kick in." @lydiakiesling.bsky.social

Never liked Clippy, now here I am trying to write with Copilot lurking. What progress! Why do developers think their solutions are the only solution? Provide tools, make them opt-in, and useful tools will get used, perhaps even cherished and recommended.

GOP members complaining about reduction of military standards while using a chart that misspells the word military!

A group of men sit in front of a chart that incorrectly spells "military" as "miltary."
