over the weekend, @aspyn.gay and @hue240.art ran two unrelated URLfests in support of Doctors Without Borders. i'm giddy to say that their combined-fest total raised for MSF is exactly $1,100.00 — a monumental success :)

i'm no longer looking for NM sources because it turns out this issue has a simple answer: NM has already stopped providing GAC, as @transitics.substack.com first reported earlier this month. i've verified her reporting per a source.

in this agreement, NU formally says it will define "sports, locker rooms, and showering facilities" by sex assigned at birth.
"Sex," "female," "male," "women," and "men" are defined in Executive Order 14168, Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government (Jan. 20, 2025), and related executive orders. Northwestern will uphold its commitment to Title IX by providing safe and fair opportunities for women, including single-sex housing for any woman, defined on the basis of sex, who requests such accommodations and all-female sports, locker rooms, and showering facilities.

on style: there is no one set of rules you must write within. but there are some tips so essential that they simply make your voice clearer, and your editors have less of a headache. those are Strunk and White's tips.

sometimes, style guides also help you sort out things you aren't an...

13,000 of the DDoSecrets-released Epstein emails are now public. (again: these are DISTINCT from the Congress-released ones.)

journalists: anyone ever dealt with Law No. 9 (2022) in Qatar, which is as close as they get to a FOIA statute?

there's a kinda insane — and wholly unsurprising — clause prohibiting media publication without consent in Article 16. it's also... confusing. if anyone's ever submitted a request, lmk!

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

The forensic audio analysis by Rob C. Maher of the 2024 Trump assassination attempt has been peer-reviewed and published in the Journal of the Audio Engineering Society. This is great news for visual and audio investigations! aes2.org/publications...
Diagram explaining how the timing between a bullet’s supersonic shock wave (“crack”) and the muzzle blast (“pop”) can be used to estimate the distance between a shooter and a microphone. Three scenarios (T₁, T₂, T₃) show a rifle firing a supersonic bullet past a microphone. In each scenario, the ballistic shock wave cone reaches the microphone before the slower muzzle blast sound. To the right of each diagram is a waveform: a sharp spike labeled the shock-wave “crack,” followed by a later cluster of peaks labeled the muzzle-blast “pop.” The time delay between these events (t_d1, t_d2, t_d3) increases as the microphone is positioned farther downrange. A formula shows distance = t_d / (1/c − 1/v), where c is the speed of sound and v is bullet speed. Text boxes explain: “Downrange timing between shock wave ‘crack’ and muzzle blast ‘pop’ gives distance estimate between shooter and microphone,” and “For investigation of Trump assassination attempt: microphone signal was from the lectern.”

a *gigantic* release at this early hour: 20 thousand unredacted emails from Epstein's Yahoo email (by request only/for journalists and researchers).

these are from the same trove that Bloomberg has been going through — not the Congress-released ones.

keeping eyes peeled for the reporting :)

This chart (which applies even more to social media than it did to TV) lives in my head rent free.

Social media enveloping traditional media means everything and everyone is now competing in the entertainment market. Boring stuff like policy that affects millions of lives doesn’t stand a chance.

I hate asking, but I'm going through some shit (some of it personal, some of it because of a major release we're announcing soon) and if anyone can spare a little $ so I can get something to eat and drink other than survival food I'd really appreciate it. My Venmo username is mx_yzptlk

making note of this awesome @spj-posts.bsky.social post that hasn't seemed to circulate over to bluesky yet :P
Society of Professional Journalists: “Quiet, piggy.” Yeah… we’re not doing that. Code PIGGY | $15 off: https://spj.org/piggy When journalists are insulted, WE GET LOUDER. Join us in reclaiming the word meant to demean a journalist and use it to build power, community and collective strength. For a limited time, take $15 off a Society of Professional Journalists PRO membership with code: PIGGY Why? Because when journalists are attacked, we grow stronger. Because press freedom requires us all. Because the best answer to hostility is solidarity. Seek Truth. Report It. Never Be Quiet.

i've seen multiple very cool articles utilize LLMs to do sentiment analysis and categorization. i'm a little skeptical on, you know, confidence in the produced data, though.

isn't it, like, a black box? how can i source a black box?
