UT border surveillance scholar was a shoo-in for tenure. UT denied him.

Bad Bunny's was better #worldcup

Not watching the game right now but the nice thing of being in Mexico is that I don't need to, the neighbors let me know what's happening from the comfort of their couch 😂 #worldcup

Jeez, Worldle, stirring things up today lol #ARGENG

I am grateful that @themaybe.org invited me to chat with the great @alixdunn.com and the great @cr0ft0n.bsky.social about one of our favorite topics: the networks that power surveillance in Mexico (and in the global majority), historically and in the present day www.themaybe.org/podcast/real...

I think something that helped my people cope with this national day of mourning was that at least our guys died on their feet, fighting to the very last second. I had to look away from the current game, it's too painful to watch #worldcup

One of the things that really brought a smile to my elderly mother-in-law was hearing what her visitor counts were to her quilting website. Now she's in hospice, so I'm going to try to drive some visitation numbers up quiltsbymarlene.com This is just a fraction of her 50 years of quilting.

It’s a shame that bad ass poster for the Mexico England game was AI. Anyway, this one I made quickly on the bike at the gym isn’t

méxico is playing better and losing, which is proper fútbol

It’s T-3ish to the Mexico-England game and I am in the best possible place to witness this moment: Mexico City, my beloved hometown, and also the BEST city in the world. A historic #worldcup game on a Sunday afternoon? Ambiance is completely nuts. Here begins my report!

I have such an expertly curated algorithm that I'm seeing posts from Mexican street food restaurants in the US and this is how they're advertising the game tomorrow night. "Good vibes"

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show! Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

I didn't know who he was two weeks ago but it is my honor to be one of the millions of people across the world witnessing Vozinha's dream come true #worldcup

It made me tear up a little when the Telemundo commentator opened the broadcast by greeting all Mexicans tuning in from across the USA. #WorldCup

Colombia-Portugal is the best game yet, but I am fearing for my cardiovascular health

Scary stories about teens sell. The data tells a different story. After decades studying adolescent mental health, here's what I found: This isn't an anxious generation. It's a resilient one. Let's start treating them that way. go.ted.com/candiceodgers

What we're getting wrong about teens and tech

As a Mexican in US, it does move me to hear my people's joy in my city, the best in the world.

I love Mexico's jerseys for this #worldcup

NEW: I took a look at the history of using export controls to limit the proliferation of cyber capabilities. From the 1990s Crypto Wars to limit the spread of PGP, to Wassenaar to stop spyware flowing out of Europe, and now powerful AI models, I argue that this type of regulation does not work.

From PGP to Mythos: a brief history of export controls that didn't stop anyone | TechCrunch

For the last 30 years, stopping the flow of cybersecurity-related software has proven to be ineffective. It's unclear why it would work now with Anthropic’s cybersecurity model Mythos.

Vozinha's game was the best one I've watched this #worldcup

A big thanks to players who reject GenAI ❤️

Someone actually crunched the numbers, and using GenAI can decrease reviews for indie game on Steam (a useful proxy stat for sales) by as much as *58%* 🤖
