I don’t know who hurt y’all, but I hope you get the help you need 🙏🫡

This is why American institutions cannot accept Palestine statehood.

Personally, I never really felt any kind of emotional response to State of Israel before a few months ago.

But the #gaslighting, that’s what I can’t ignore now.

And once you can’t unsee that, you cannot unsee a lot of other things.

They did this all this in the name of ruthless, messianic racism.

It was so unnecessary.

“AI” use, though 🤔

“The 4,000 or so degree-granting institutions of higher learning in America don’t tend to operate like businesses, which must adapt or die. Instead, a typical college is motivated to remain the same, operating through structures that are rare outside higher education.”

Good design is as much about making dangerous things hard to do as it is about making the most important things easy.

Is this equating Hamas with Palestinians, in general, though? 🤔

Find-and-Replace “AI” with “hammer” and the benchmarks frame who has the biggest, baddest tool.

Tokens and benchmarks are the new race for more hertz, baud, and pixels.

It’s super interesting if you’re a scientist or engineer, but is a solution in search of a problem.

Hammers can be both tools and weapons.

Focusing on “AI” abandons any pretension of human use case.

@foone

@aral it’s not an accidental outcome, this is by design.

The authoritarians with bloodlust in positions of authority within Israel don’t view Palestinians as humans.

An absolutely incredible slipping off the mask.

Yitzhak Rabin rolls over in his grave.

If you believe in the value of #FirstPrinciples and adhere to #ExtremeHumanism, never be ashamed for condemning war crimes or the slaughter of innocent civilians no matter who is carrying out the atrocity.

Let those who justify brutality stare into the abyss until it stares back at them.

That’s like asking would you want your company’s email to have a firewall for spam.

Um, yes? 🤔

I’m optimistic that business journalists are able to learn what political journalists have aggressively refused to.

Shareholders, boards, and limited partners are a discriminating bunch.

In other words, I don’t think it’s necessarily a conscience, I think it’s about money and value destruction.
