@nytimes.com considers Columbia faculty stirrings to be a bigger story than Signalgate this morning. Subscription paused, and I am not likely to renew. So disappointing to see them cowed by the administration. Would be curious to read a post-mortem on it someday.

I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired. It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵

The thing about so-called generative artificial intelligence is, the intelligence isn't artificial. It's real. It's OURS. The techbros stole our intelligence (our data, our thoughts, our stories, our art) and used the software to regurgitate it and spackle it together into digital particleboard.

I just checked in at the Atlanta airport and the kiosk wanted me to show a "passport or permanent residence card." The airline rep who was helping me said "I don't know why it's doing this it's been doing it all morning."

Diversity: “You keep on using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” Diversity is absolutely our military strength. You can’t win a war with only snipers. Or DoD spokespersons. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Chilling report from Brown University. Administration advises all foreign students, staff, and faculty to postpone or reconsider (ie cancel) international travel, due to federal government's crackdown on universities. Brown also warns against domestic travel -since it's unclear what ICE will do.

Just this week I spent an hour finding out my options for moving most of my retirement investments overseas. It’s going to mean a lot more work for me, but even a social choice fund built mostly of US stocks is no longer the place to be. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/b...

Call this Whitewashing, because that is what this is. Christian nationalist Whitewashing. Trying to make it look like only they have done everything, when in fact all White Christian nationalists do is spray paint their ideological biases wherever they can. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/u...

Essential to remind that libraries are not just vital sources of knowledge and information but also excellent community centers devoted to under-served populations. Services for job-seekers, the blind, for senior citizens. They lend out books but also tech, cooking equipment, media players.

Trump and Musk are dropping nuclear bombs on the administrative state, and the Democrats show up with water balloons — and are too afraid to throw even those.

Why is Trump celebrating St. Patrick’s Day? Isn’t awareness of different cultures a bad or possibly “illegal” thing? Or is the celebration of the many White ethnicities embraced, and it’s just the others that are bad? Full disclosure: my ancestors were Irish. Every culture deserves celebration.

This is solid. I'd love to see more fire in the rhetoric, but the message is solid and far better than most of what you'll see from politicians, any politicians. It's worth a couple min of your time. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social
