Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

Such sad news. Darren achieved that rare thing of translating enthusiasm for crowd safety into industry-wide action. He’ll be missed.
So sorry to hear of the sudden death of Darren Whitehouse, formerly of the Sports Ground Safety Authority, who was a great friend to crowd psychology research

Sick of being up-to-the-gills in low-rent crowd simulation papers based on lazy tropes and with no thought for their risk in application, for *years* I’ve been banging on about making maths and comp sci students do mandatory ethics courses. And here we are.

seeing takes about the aid institutions and their role in imperialism. correct. If someone said "investor-owned hospitals exploit the vulnerable to benefit shareholders" I'd nod. If their followup was "and that's why I'm turning off your mom's dialysis machine" I'd...have some followup questions
