Incredibly proud of all the organizers who've worked countless hours over the last 4 years to get to this point! 😍😍 I'm grateful to have been a small part in this enormous effort to improve the lives of thousands of grad workers for years to come :-)

🚨 The Carceral AI report is out! 🚫 Read the recommendations of global activists and academics to resist technologies designed to police, incarcerate, surveil, and control human beings.

So excited for work led by @SachinPendse about a consent-forward paradigm for mental health in Nature Mental Health! We clarify WHY consent thru the whole process of developing digital mental is crucial + HOW we might start to do this pragmatically.

In this Perspective the authors propose an implementation of a consent-forward paradigm in the design of digital mental health tools to protect users from unexpected harm @SachinPendse @SloganTapleton @nehakumar @munmun10 @snchancellor nature.com/articles/s4422…

@Usman64182198 Not totally sure why. I think they just ask for 2 letters up front and then the 3rd can come after the first round of interviews

For anyone on the SLAC job market, Vassar computer science is hiring a TT professor: employment.vassar.edu/postings/4080 Applications start to be reviewed this Sunday, October 13th, 2024 If anyone's interested, feel free to reach out to me!

@Usman64182198 They ask about current and future sponsorship for employment visa status in the application. I don't know if this factors into the search process, though. (I don't think it does, but I'd suggest reaching out to Vassar human resources just to make sure.)

@SloganTapleton Only for US residents?
