@swodinsky I'd say that the original link you posted is vastly overstating what they can do. What's the marginal impact on ad targeting or news feed from visiting one website? And probably your icky feeling is because this is the same technique used in some forms of ad fraud

I am super excited to share that I have finished my PhD at UCSD!! I came in 7 years ago wanting to examine user security behaviors at large-scale, and my thesis was titled Prioritizing Security Practices via Large-Scale Measurement of User Behavior 1/N

@ericlaw Could it be emitting bluetooth or AirTag-compatible signals that nearby devices can pick up on?

I didn't even bother looking for it for over a day under the theory that Find My couldn't possibly be correct.

[1/x]: Well, odd moment to reappear on Twitter, but I've got a good reason: I'm thrilled to have joined the faculty of @KhouryCollege at @Northeastern as an Asst. Prof! tl;dr: I'm recruiting PhD students, get in touch and apply if you want to work with me! (app deadline 12/15)

I was an intern at Twitter many years ago, and I was so impressed by how smart the people were, the scale of the infrastructure, and the genuinely positive company culture. Insane to watch Elon destroy all of it in a matter of weeks

Oof, things are looking pretty grim on here. If Twitter goes down and they can't figure out how to turn it on again, you can find me at @ericzeng@hci.social

@__apf__ Part of that strategy was also reframing my training goals from hitting X miles a week to doing 2-3 runs a week at 150bpm for 30/60/90 min

@__apf__ I think it's fine to walk the hills, my training strategy is to maintain a consistent intensity/HR zone and change the pace based on the terrain. When I trail run in the mountains, I hike any steep climbs moderately fast and it's about the same intensity as running!

does anyone have tips on how to train as a runner when living on on the side of a large hill? I previously lived somewhere flat and it was very different—just added a half mile or a mile a week to get up to race distance. but the hillside is kicking my ass

@EarlenceF Makes sense! I'm drawn to a light ebike that feels agile for the fun factor, but maybe I should just leave that for my road bike

@_ericzeng So, two modes: (1) heavier e-bike: just chill and let motor do the watts for commute and (2) light road bike: real workout/long distances/elevations. Two bikes for two different purposes.

Some scenes from my work commute (11 miles oneway). I use an ebike with panniers for laptop etc. Commute goes thru a canyon, a park and a bike path.

@EarlenceF It has a 7-speed version! Curious about how you feel about increased weight coming from a light road bike. My initial thought is I want an ebike that is light enough to feel like a regular bike but not sure if that's worth compromising on the other features!

@_ericzeng @eredmil1 also, that particular bike appears to be single speed. okay for flat, maybe not so okay for any hills
