This is terrifying

[The Associated Press @AP]

How is artificial intelligence used to predict children at risk?

@AP found several government algorithms that have profiled families based on everything from the parents' disability status to if the mother smoked before pregnancy. https://t.co/nUD7dcDDVJ

More reporting on MSFT (the folks who are funding OpenAI) cutting an entire ethics team. Company internal ethics teams can't be fully effective without external regulation giving them clout.

My abstract was accepted to Puentes' Latinx Research Week! I'll be presenting a poster March 14 if you want to learn about my research into sepsis, signal processing and tensor methods

what are good gifts to give a PI when you defend / leave a lab?

(if you’re my PI and you see this, no you didn’t)

[@tundeolaniran @tundeolaniran]

if a 60+ year old relative asked you to take a covid test before visiting their home for the holidays even though you are vaxxed, would you do it? why or why not?

@rapscallison Congratulations!

Cartoon Modern is a rare artbook full of amazing art and information related to UPA, Mary Blair and the whole '50s cartoon era.

The book's author put out an open call for it to be scanned and made free to all. As a Halloween treat, we've done just that: https://t.co/RxIhMNplRu

Minnie Mouse implies the existence of a larger, more dangerous Maxxie Mouse.
And by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there must also exist a Meanie Mouse which is the average of all other mice in both ferocity and size.

Are people still washing their hands for at least 20 seconds?

If not, please do. This is probably one of the most important and easiest public health strategy to reduce the spread of Covid, flu, cold, and all the other viruses out there

@oliviamdh I should clarify, watched the film at home with my parents, not in school.

[O.P. Alge @oialge]

@oliviamdh Yes, saw the film version in grade school, and also saw my middle school's production.

A very insightful read about "code-switching" in STEM.

"The need for code-switching will persist until we can eradicate the systemic, institutional, and personal racism against which we need a shield."
