TIL about the "'New York Times problem'—the dilemma of indicting Assange for the very same kind of investigative journalism that mainstream media engages frequently"

I don't know in which reality you live that state secret takes precedent over criminal activity.

Elon Musk doesn't have a natural feel for empathy or emotions, says his biographer who's followed him for three years.
So, a psychopath.

AI System Helped Cops Identify a Drug Trafficker Just by Analyzing His Driving Patterns
So, they tracked his plate as he crossed the state line multiple times.
I wonder how many false positives they stopped on the road before getting one successful case to boast about it.

What the US can learn from affirmative action at universities in Brazil
Reply in thread
Just to add to your comments: these brazilian universities included in the research are free.
These are public universities, and usually the best across most fields.

My point is: let Ivy league do whatever they want. Instead, build world-class public universities that can rival them.
On those, because it's a public service, the government has more flexibility to dictate policy.
