Sorry for the Instagram link but this was interesting, 1970s documents of a gay student organization fighting for recognition at the University of Kentucky. Most notable to me, the leader was from Whitley County where I come from. Love hearing that.

This is both heartbreaking and infuriating. There is absolutely no excuse or justification for instilling such fear in Jewish students. The hatred and bigotry on display on American streets is evil. If you feel that Israel has gone too far after October 7, there are ample ways of making your point without causing young Jewish kids to live in fear, simply because they're Jewish.

I am livid and scared. My daughter, a library board trustee in her city, is being targeted by the Moms for Stupidity and their minions, including Proud Boys. She is attacked in their RW rags, social media and AM radio. They film her. It's no secret where she lives, where my granddaughter lives. I admit that because it's happening to my own kid, I'm more inclined to say, get the hell out before you get hurt.

Periodic reminder that I run the Fediverse AU #Mastodon server for #Australian #NZ #research and #university organisations who don't have a home on Mastodon.

And here's a piece I wrote on why universities are reluctant to run their own Mastodon servers (recently updated with information on referrer tracking and social media platform support)

It's amazing how aggressively Wolfram Research has hobbled or otherwise enshittified Wolfram Player over the years.

What was once quite a nice tool for creating interactive content has become difficult and frustrating at best and impossible to use at worst.

If there's any doubt to whether #Meta still uses the copycat strategy to kill competitors, it just released a tool on all of its apps that OpenAI charges $20/month for.

Except, OpenAI isn't Meta's competitor. But the company that provides ChatGPT's cloud computing might be— Microsoft.
