    I'm Jewish and have been stopping by daily. You have nothing to fear, except the difficulty of confronting your own racism and islamophobia. Unless you're afraid of sharing conversation and snacks, and a welcoming seder open to all?

    And, it’s happened. The anti-Israel, pro-terrorist encampment is now up at @MIT. We are afraid to go near.

    I'm a Jew, a faculty member at northeastern, and I visited the Gaza solidarity camp each day. Many student protesters there were also Jews. Northeastern admin is justifying arresting their own students by claiming they were chanting "kill the Jews," which is a blatant lie.

    Replying to @schock @PresidentAoun and 3 others
    From the NE liberated zone: "Renata Nyul, VP of communications at NU, lied to media saying that protesters chanted antisemitic slurs like “kill the Jews”. THIS IS A LIE. JEWISH STUDENT PROTESTORS ARE STANDING WITH US AND “KILL THE JEWS” WAS NOT CHANTED."

    I'm not at all 'anti-crypto.' I'm a big fan of cryptography. I am, however, anti- tax evasion, money laundering, ponzi schemes, multi-level marketing, and needless waste of energy. [1/n]

    This is huge. The ACM is calling for an "immediate suspension of the current and future private and governmental use" of Facial Recognition technologies, for "both technical and ethical reasons." acm.org/binaries/conte…

    This is a BIG DEAL. A couple quick thoughts: 1) This moment is a win. It's good to celebrate wins in the struggle for justice in the tech space. 2) This win was made possible by the foundational work of Black women computer scientists like @jovialjoy, @rajiinio, @timnitGebru

    My jaw dropped to the floor when I got this news. Facebook is shutting down the facial recognition system that it introduced more than 10 years ago and deleting the faceprints of 1 billion people: nytimes.com/2021/11/02/tec…

    As a trans non-binary femme using HRT (estradiol) and as a person with two advanced degrees and 20 years of practice in study design, I feel the need to share a few words about this study. (1/n)

    The long-term health risks of cross-sex hormones have been now been tracked over a lengthy period. These side-effects are often minimised or denied by trans activists. bit.ly/38F0GnD 9/11
