“If she continues down this path, Gov. Whitmer risks turning a once strong, people-first record into a muddled story of corporate appeasement.” — Commentary from Michigan Advance Editor-in-Chief Jon King michiganadvance.com/2025/12/05/w...

I knew what company this was just from the headline. It's the same company that led me to quit my job at a consulting firm 10 years ago because my firm kept trying me to embed me with them to work on a system that spied on prisoner calls with their families. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/01/1...

I keep seeing posts about The Wizard of Oz at the Sphere in Vegas. Am I the only one who hated The Wizard of Oz as a kid? Seeing in that format would be a nightmare for me.

One reason LLMs are so popular is the promise of seemingly private, judgment-free interaction. But once users internalize that their data is being recorded, studied, or reused, it could lead to a shift in how people think, speak, and even feel when using AI, says computer scientist Koustuv Saha.

Me, the entire time watching The Beast in Me 😳😱

One lesson I wish tech folks would grasp is to stop building and releasing frameworks out of academic theory without testing it in... you know, real world scenarios.

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani. Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money. That is how we win.

Seeing local restaurants offer free food to SNAP recipients is restoring my faith in humans.

The NYC mayoral race is a test of whether our systems of democracy still work at all.

I actually like the falling back part. My body never fully adjusts springing forward.

High grocery prices have pushed more Americans to look to food banks for help. But organizations providing food relief have lost more than $1 billion in federal aid and are bracing for the impacts of legislation that will permanently limit the reach of SNAP. From @stateline.org

My exact reaction 😆

40% of SNAP recipients are children...

The country’s largest food assistance program is set to lapse on Nov. 1 if the federal government shutdown continues. That will affect almost 1.1 million people in more than 655,000 households across Massachusetts.

donating local is so so important for this specific situation. Also discuss your donation with the org first, often they have very specific needs and your can of beans might not be as valuable as cash or something else.

For anyone wondering, the amount was $65/week in OR. I was the only one in the household who qualified so I shopped for 3 on that amount. The average amount is even less. No one is living high off SNAP but it keeps people from starving which around 42 million people are now facing in November.

16 years ago, I was in an abusive relationship. I couldn't work, no family/friends close by to support me. Reluctantly I went on SNAP benefits and with the limited amount I received every week I had to feed 3 people. It was enough to get me through until times got better and I am forever grateful.
