It's interesting to me that the social media ban is framed by the government as "world leading" whereas not giving many of the same companies what they want to do in AI is framed as us falling behind.

WTF? I was quoted in this story but I have never spoken to the reporter nor would I have said those things. Is everything just generated by LLMs these days?

The way that I was raised, being Jewish meant believing that every human life was sacred; to save a single human life meant saving all of humanity. That no law or ritual was more important than saving a single human life.
It's unfathomable that any Jew can accept what Israel is doing in Gaza.

#Flu severity *is* now rising, but wasn't severe based on these now old data (to 13JUL).
So to be ahead of the curve, get a flu vaccine ASAP. It's safe, free & availbale all over the place, including pharmacies. You'll have to put a little effort in, but that's easier than a bad case of the flu

If you needed any more evidence that Segal is deliberately exploiting (and worsening!) real antisemitism in order to benefit fascist zionism, here she is directly funding fascists.
