This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

Context: OpenAIs hack of HuggingFace. The company did a crime. It doesn't matter it was their AI that did it if we want safe AI at any point in the future this was them, not the AI

In the safety engineering literature, we don't really believe in "accidents". You build a system, it does a thing, if you don't like what it does, that's on you for having built it, and you get to restructure the system to avoid such unacceptable losses in the future.

Please hire me as a postdoc. I have many useful skills (programming, electronics, digital fabrication, writing) that can be applied to many areas (feminist STS, disability studies, media studies,HCI, outer space) with many possible outputs (research creation, publications, products). I am also nice.

By using a device ISS was using, we would save money on certifying the hardware. Every piece of equipment flown has to go through a series of testing. That testing takes time and money. The operations software on the tablet was developed in Windows for ISS, so we needed a windows tablet.

"A new study has found that eating 50g or more of high-fat cheese a day correlates with a lower risk of developing dementia. That means all cheeses with more than 20 percent fat content, including brie, gouda, cheddar, parmesan, gruyere, and mozzarella." www.sciencealert.com/cheese-linke...

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.
