“The funding of research at universities has been the greatest investment in history.” @profgalloway open.spotify.com/episode/5Uh46A…

"With Silicon Valley now unabashed in its belief that it bears no responsibility for the consequences of its own inventions — much like the US gun industry, I suppose — we should ponder with fresh trepidation the looming revolution in AI." - Hugo Rifkind

@RanaAwdish @acweyand A great tool I recently heard about on BlueSky is “starter packs” - allows you to create a list of recommended accounts for people to follow. You can also be added to them too, hope this helps!

Time to rebuild community elsewhere. Like @acweyand you will find me where the skies are 💙

Why are some public high schools in 🇺🇸 so much nicer than others? Great facilities, a gleaming cafeteria, flatscreen tvs throughout the school, gorgeous gyms and football stadia, voluptuous libraries, nice parking… Why do some kids get that and others don’t?

21 September 1866. Herbert George (“HG”) Wells was born in Bromley, Kent. He’s best remembered for his science fiction novels, including: The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The First Men in the Moon, and The Shape of Things to Come.

5 years ago today... I lost my son, William. His umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck. He was 22 inches long. Even among my family of giants, he was the tallest baby. Here's some words I wrote, for me, and for others going through something similar: dixies60.substack.com/p/dixie-s-sixt…
