keep thinking of a vocally anti-woke reporter who insisted that the term "environmental racism" was nonsense
After a white county in South Carolina rejected a data center, developers have sets their sights on a Black community for a proposed data center complex the size of 1,200 football fields
After a White Town Rejected a Data Center, Developers Targeted a Black Area
Four million Americans live within 1 mile of a data center. The communities closest to them are “overwhelmingly” non-white.

This summer, I took myself to the beach for two days & wrote a letter to my fellow educators about “AI.”
My mom asked to read it; I told her, “Not yet. Let me get another draft done.”
Welp.
I should have let her read the first draft because she’s not here to read this one.

A lot of people forget how in 2004 the Bush regime kidnapped the democratically elected President of Haiti, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and dumped him in Africa.
Is there any modern precedent for abducting a head of state?
Plenty of examples of coups, assassinations and domestic trials, including show trials, but this is like a Crusader Kings plot.

AI can't apologize because AI does not have emotions therefore it cannot regret anything. It's important not to humanize AI and to recognize the humans behind the AI are the ones who are writing code and programs to allow AI to generate these types of explicit images.

If you know a high school student interested in language and/or puzzles, tell 'em about the linguistics olympiads, there are lots of national versions in many countries plus an international competition!
The International Linguistics Olympiad (IOL) is an annual international competition that brings together secondary school students and experts from various fields of linguistics.
