If the US wants to maintain deep tech leadership, they should ease the burden of immigration or risk losing talent to competition. My brief perspective: sciencepolicyreview.org/2022…

This probably isn’t my crowd, but Kaiser WA is looking for a social worker for gender health case management! $10K signing bonus. My social worker was so helpful in giving me the confidence to pursue gender affirming care and helping me navigate systems. kaiserpermanentejobs.org/job…

“There are all of these other adjacent, really important fields that are just starved for funding [...] Before we throw money into the cloud, I would like to see money going into other disciplines.”
Any national AI funding should be AT LEAST 50% to social sciences & humanities.
Stanford created a new center to study gigantic AI models, which it claims are "foundational" to the field and its future. Others say that's a bunch of baloney. wired.com/story/stanford-pro…

Health care is a basic human right. That includes equitable, gender-affirming, and culturally competent health care for transgender youth.

Nine months ago, I learned that Facebook has a Responsible AI team, and has had some form of it since Cambridge Analytica. I began to wonder: what has it been doing these past three years? Nearly four-dozen interviews later, here's what I found. technologyreview.com/2021/03…

This is a dark day. But it's important to remember why Republicans fought so hard to steal this Supreme Court seat.
They've realized a truth that shakes them to their core: The American people are not on their side.
And we'll keep fighting until we take our democracy back.

I’m an immigrant: J1, F1, H1B, GC, Citizenship. I ❤️ US because it’s welcoming of ideas, of people & diversity. I’m grateful to the US and I’m heartbroken to see its awesomeness crumble. Let’s work hard, invent more, educate more, create more jobs, let’s fight shortsightedness.

I said I was going to speak out. I prefer a twitter feed of mean cats & sweet dogs but we need to change what it means to be ‘police’ in America. So I spoke out. Here is something personal I wrote. I appreciate the @washingtonpost giving me this chance
