Me trying to explain that not all of Alaska loses the sun for months, but that there are different levels of light. These are all Holga (lomography) photos from when I was an artsy 29-year-old doing maternal child health research in NW Arctic villages during the darkest parts of the year.
Por fin encontré las fotos que buscaba antes. Estas saqué al finales de noviembre en 2011 en el ártico noroeste de Alaska — un poco al sur de Utqiagvik (donde de veras NO aparece el sol por dos meses). En *esta* región, el sol aparece pero solo un poquitico, así: 11:30 am, 1:00 pm, 1:00 pm, 3:00 pm

From concerns about social media addiction to urgent civil liberties issues, courts are asking scientists to be arbiters of alleged technology harms. How can scientists reliably inform courts and how can courts interpret our work?

Mark Zuckerberg Thinks You Don't Have Enough Friends and His Chatbots Are the Answer
The CEO of Meta says "the average American has fewer than three friends, fewer than three people they would consider friends. And the average person has demand for meaningfully more.”

Clegg is right: algorithmic moderation *is* snowballing against harmless content. But it's platforms' approach to content moderation as a brand safety and #PR issue rather than as a community and content governance issue that really needs to change.
