Deeply honored (and a little daunted) to serve as the next leader of the research team for SlaveVoyages.org as Harvard takes over as the new institutional home for the project. Looking forward to the hard work of sustaining and improving this public resource!

Every Sunday night in the fall, Joan Jett must wish she were dead so she could roll over in her grave. #SNF

The idea that people want AI oversight to happen "all of a sudden" ignores years of research, warnings, and policy efforts. The delay hasn’t been a lack of awareness; it’s been because of years of industry lobbying against regulation, political resistance, and inaction.

NEW: ProPublica revealed that the FBI was circling Sen. Collins over a defense contractor’s donations — until Trump gutted the unit in charge. Collins has since mustered a defense with a series of incorrect and misleading claims.

I gave a talk here last year and was blown away by this program. The faculty is a murderer row of cool smart people. Underrated town close to Ozarks. Phenomenal gig for whoever gets it.

There should be a law that management can’t call a long meeting a “retreat” unless you go somewhere (preferably somewhere nice). If it’s in the same place where you normally have meetings, it’s just a “long meeting.” No dressing it up as a “retreat.” (How’s your Tuesday going? Sigh.)

So I guess I’m switching to MapQuest. Question though: Do you still print out the MapQuest directions to bring in the car, like the last time I used it in 1998?

MapQuest mocked Trump’s move to rename Lake Ontario as “Lake America” on social media even as bigger rivals like Google Maps and Apple Maps have complied with the change.
