This article on how AI defines “beautiful” women takes what feels obvious and makes it matter. It is surprising and hard to read and made me feel and wonder. It is proof of why we need, will always need, human journalists who know their craft. washingtonpost.com/technology/int…

@awichowski great talk today at #datauniverse. Was reminded of Thomas R Dye and ‘Who’s running America?’ Was not entirely surprised that this extended to the early tech founder generation. Fascinating.

No election is free or fair without access to information & public participation. We need transparent policies & practices, anchored in human rights to build back trust & uphold democracy.

Reminds me of what @Ghonim wanted in @parlio, or the intent of pol.is. Good provocations.

The world's #1 antiquarian book fair kicks off today at the Park Av Armory. 200 vendors from 17 countries. Open thru Sunday. Everything from 1750s true crime to Warhol’s cats. nytimes.com/2023/04/27/art… I found one of the only surviving copies of the original 1972 subway map!

I met the extraordinary Marijka @MHoczko when I was a surly-as-hell 15 yr old, thinking there’s no way my soon-to-be stepmom could impress me. But it’s Marijka! She radiates warmth & kindness & love, I was instantly entranced-and forever grateful she’s my family #UkrainiansWeLove
