Alice was a mentor, a friend and one of the people who I credit with helping me find my voice.
She gave me the strength to embrace my disabilities and use my skills as a writer to help others.
My life is forever changed because of her.

15 years ago, I said every social media founder should be forced to use and live with the default settings of their platforms. Now I would say that the AI founders should have their tools pointed at their families for a year before they can deploy them elsewhere.
I seem to remember whole congressional hearings about the terrible destructive force that is violence in video games and yet, there is a very strange quiet about an unregulated technology that coaches people to suicide.
There are no words for how evil this is

1. This is a thread on freedom, and how easy it is to lose.
Over the past 2,000 years in Europe, there have been few periods and places of freedom. For much of the time we lived under highly oppressive tyrannies of various kinds, whether small or grand, local or imperial, secular or religious.🧵

A new study concludes that the construction industry alone will blow through the carbon budget ceilings even if every other source of emissions were reduced to zero. " If current trends continue, the sector can exceed the 2°C per annum carbon budget earliest by 2040.”
The carbon footprint of construction will double by 2050 and blow the carbon budget.
