i have a bright, diligent, numerate, lively and kindhearted first-year international student who has been unable to find any internship for this summer. His goal down the road is to be a STEM educator in his home country. Longshot of course, but I'm curious if anyone has ideas for him!

hey I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere but - if you're using Chrome and you don't want this gross little AI Mode button to pop up in your address bar, paste "chrome://flags" into your address bar and search the flags for "AI Mode." find "AI Mode Omnibox Entrypoint" then you can just disable it!

I can't stop thinking about this because so much of the "benefits" of AI are for problems that could be resolved in other, more enjoyable & humane ways. Not having time to write an email or read a book has better solutions than getting a bot to do it for you for the illusion of having done it

A very scary bill just passed in Ohio for transgender folks. No one but local LGBTQ+ orgs are talking about it. First, Ohio is only recognizing sex assigned at birth, male or female. You can get in trouble for stating otherwise on documents, I imagine. I may need to change my state ID back. 1/5
