Literary translation has long been undervalued and underpaid, and author incomes have been falling for years. Starting in July, we’ll offer WWB contributors 15% more for their work—but we can’t do it without your help. Invest in fair pay for literary artists:

It is wrong and criminal for government agents to kidnap someone, send them to die in a concentration camp, and disappear them, regardless of immigration status. But it's still worth noting she has a green card. The government doesn't even pretend this is about deporting undocumented people.

This is a reason why I push back on using LLMs for research. Esp at the high school level, where I work, deciding what to research and choosing what results to base your essay on *is the whole point* of a research paper. We want the student to learn how to thoughtfully express themselves.

One Wisconsin City Beat Back a Data Center. Now Residents Are Helping Others Do the Same.
When a secretive $1.6 billion data center proposal landed in Menomonie with almost no warning, residents had weeks to fight back. They won — and built a toolkit so other communities can, too.

Actual “AI” literacy would involve explaining why it's not and never will be a reliable source of information nor will it ever be a replacement for research or creativity.

AI education in schools? Absolutely. Kids should know the risks of engaging with AI technology since we know they will be at some point. They should know how it interacts with delusional thinking, suicidal thinking, other kinds of mental illness. They should know it’s designed to be sycophantic.

Kids should be learning that AI output isn’t trustworthy, where it really comes from, and how it’s disrupting our ability to tell what’s real. They shouldn’t be learning that AI will make them more efficient or do their work for them because it can’t. That would be propaganda, not education

My recommendation for independent bookstore day tomorrow is that you go to an independent bookstore (or several), be very kind to the booksellers, and buy a book on their recommendation that you previously knew nothing about. Your life will be enriched.

Whether it was the literal neutral zone trap or getting goaded into taking penalties and post-whistle scrums, the Penguins fell into each and every trap. Dan Muse deserves credit for the regular season, but the playoff coaching performance has been suboptimal.
