Which birth years are considered as "grew up in the 90s"?

Does 1986 count? What about 1980? 1996? 1976?

This case is horrifying. The man had deferred action, was on a full path to a green card, is a college grad magna cum laude, and ICE arrested him randomly while looking for someone else:

β€œWhat do we do?” said one ICE officer, to which another replied β€œWe’re going to take him with us anyway.”

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

I... feel like what you're saying is actually agreeing with the quoted post...?

US court allows ICE to arrest and pepper-spray peaceful protestors in Minnesota

Appeals Court Stays Restrictions on Federal Tactics in Minnesota
The Eighth Circuit granted the Trump administration’s request to block, at least for now, a lower court’s injunction limiting how federal agents interact with protesters in the state.

One court decision, two different headlines.

Guardian on the left, NY Times on the right. Which one more directly conveys information and the stakes to the reader?

If I'm being honest, the collapse of the post-Cold War international order and the violent occupation of an American city are making it difficult for me to concentrate on housing policy.

(the "incorrectly marked as spam" mail is almost always marketing mail from a merchant I have actually interacted with. I have no idea what distinguishes it from the email it doesn't block.)

Spam is also, yanno, not solved.

For me, GMail lets through an obviously spammy mail maybe once a month and marks as spam probably a few emails a week things that are not spam.

Note that my observable email received rate is like <10/day, so this is not a trivial mistake rate!

Cigna having issues locating my account because my last name is only two letters 🀦🏻

The public: "We are desperate for help with the cost of living. Please do something."

Trump administration: "Penis."

I think the issue here is that it's interpreting "-ai" not as "disable AI" but rather "don't include the search term ai" which filters every result out

If you replace "generative ai" with "generative artificial intelligence" or "LLMs" there are results

fwiw I have found -ai to be incredibly buggy lately, sometimes it causes results not to show up, sometimes AI still shows up but interprets "-ai" as part of the search input

Attorney’s visit, Marwan Barghouthi, Megiddo Prison – 15.12.25

Time: 15:00–16:00

Mr. Barghouthi seemed in good spirits, strong in body and mind, though very thin. The recent reports of beatings that were given by an anonymous phone call to the family were false, as the last beating he suffered was three months ago, on 15.9.25, during his transfer by the Nachshon Division. At that time, four to five of his ribs were broken, and until today he is still experiencing pain in his ribs. During that attack by the Nachshon squad, he lost consciousness, but when he arrived at Megiddo, he received medical treatment and is now physically stable. The assult on 15.9.25 was the seventh assult he suffered since 7.10.23. 

He is not recieving enough food, as the IPS does not provide the food it claims to provide. He thinks of his family all the time, and they are with him every single hour, including his grandchildren, whom he has never met. 

Adv. Ben Marmarelli
