This isnt a ban on them buying things we all know they cant afford- its an attack on those in the community who help people who are seeking asylum. If we gift things, this will cause suspicion and investigation.

Fascinating conversation. If you want to know what the U.S. Digital Service (USDS) does and why it’s being fucked up this is a good episode to listen to. I will also recommend the podcast, “System Crash” that @parismarx.com does with @brianmerchant.bsky.social. Both are excellent.

DHS spokesperson: “Rumeysa Ozturk is a Turkish national and Tufts University graduate student, granted the privilege to be in this country on a visa. DHS and ICE investigations found Ozturk engaged in activities in support of Hamas, a foreign terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans. A visa is a privilege not a right.  Glorifying and supporting terrorists who kill Americans is grounds for visa issuance to be terminated.  This is commonsense security.”

NEW—DHS claims, without citing proof, Rumeysa Ozturk "engaged in activities in support of Hamas."

Among "activity" Ozturk engaged in was co-writing an op-ed urging Tufts to heed student resolutions to acknowledge the Palestinian genocide & divest from companies tied to Israel.

This is true. Puberty blockers was a compromise between just starting regular HRT at regular puberty ages and the no youth transition ever position.

Restructuring How We Think About Alerts Rather than focusing on the events that result in alerts, Fred proposes we look at the system and center it on the operators instead.

New work blog post, covering some re-framing about alerting.

Make a distinction between: alarm, anomaly detection, fault identification, and corrective action.

Consider the cost & necessity of validating each, that they can all storm you, and maybe then willingly reduce how many can disrupt you.

The Impact of Age Verification Measures Goes Beyond Porn Sites As age verification bills pass across the world under the guise of “keeping children safe online,” governments are increasingly giving themselves the authority to decide what topics are deemed “safe” ...

Age verification laws are right up there with real names policies in the pantheon of "you think this is going to help people, but it's actually quite disastrously bad" ideas.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
