For those few who might care, I've got a short piece in the @law.stanford.edu magazine on the 50th anniversary of the opening of our main building complex, Crown Quadrangle. law.stanford.edu/stanford-law... It was fun to write.

The only appropriate question is how threatening the mass genocide of innocent people can possibly be ok. It cannot. No, I am not ok. No, this is not ok. No, we can never repair the damage from what has been said.

An add to limits on cloning mice www.nature.com/articles/d41... I noted earlier that 58 generations of humans would be about 1600 yrs. But, also, if you froze cells from the 1st, or other early, clones, you should be able to restart with them. Say, run 30 generations then start again. Indefinitely?

Ah, @nitafarahany.bsky.social on "the biggest lie on the internet": our "consents". nitafarahany.substack.com/p/the-bigges... SO true; such a problem for contract law, conceptually at least. ("Contract law" doesn't seem to care, tho)

This one habit is controlling your thoughts and actions. Learn what @nitafarahany.bsky.social says is impeding our ability to think freely from our #FreeSpeechSummit2025.

Does our ability to speak freely matter if we can't think freely? At our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @nitafarahany.bsky.social argues that one carries a bigger risk.

Stalin needed violence. Orwell needed telescreens. All we needed was a "notification." At our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @nitafarahany.bsky.social argues that the battle for our attention is shaping the marketplace of ideas right under our noses.

I wonder how many Iranian protesters Trump just got killed. "Go ahead, protest, the US has your back." Oh, wait, never mind. I'm almost done listening to The King of Kings, a new history of the 1979 Iranian Revolution by Scott Anderson. VERY good, I think. I just got to the part wh/the new regime
