Reminding everyone for no particular reason that Section 230 is one of the last things standing between free speech online and Trump having control over everything you see and say on the internet

As a side point, does anyone actually know what skills are relevant in 2025?
My career in bioinformatics *did not exist* when I was 18 years old. I joined a brand new field in my mid-20s, and had to be flexible and creative. Trying to get by with a narrow slate of skills considered relevant in the mid-1990s would've been hopeless.
Even if we would stipulate that the *only* purpose of college is vocational training (ugh) if you think you, at 18 years old, not only know for sure what your future career will be but also know better than all the professors at a college what skills you will need for that career, why bother?

It's about 80-100% of something we call HDP.

And well, it's pretty much what it sounds like. A privacy focused app framework built for humans, by humans. No vibe coding, VCs or profit motives.
Sorry for the video, but We still need some space, Carol.

I also have contacts who are current and former employees of foreign intel agencies, including Pakistan's INI. From what I understand, Afghanistan is once again turning into a terrorist haven. It's all repeating and Donald Trump doesn't even want to use "over the horizon" operations to combat it.

Bellingcat’s contact email has always been a magnet for people with fairly unusual views; paranoid delusions, sprawling conspiracies, the works. But recently, the pattern has shifted, we’re seeing more and more emails clearly written with ChatGPT.

My friend Kara, the one currently incarcerated at Carswell, has had her hormones cut yet again.
They haven't done labs or anything on her in weeks.
They've now reduced her to 3 mg a week for her HRT.
We are still desperately searching for legal counsel who will advocate for her. Please help.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.
Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.
Their inaction is deadly.
