The entire Lichess team is deeply shocked and saddened to hear of the untimely passing of GM Daniel Naroditsky. Danya had a deep passion for chess and a rare gift for inspiring that love of the game in others.

This is a really nice article in @aifrontiers.bsky.social I think it does a good job of outlining while the federal government isn’t quite sure how to respond to national security-related AI threats; we’re simply approaching it with the wrong framework.
As a manager who TRULY cares about work-life balance, I routinely encourage my folks to add an explicit goal for their annual performance review about improving work-life balance. This way, they actually get rewarded for it, and it’s something we have a focused discussion on throughout the year.
