Oregon Struggles to Land Federal Counterterrorism Money as Trump Orders Troops to Stop “Terrorists” Hindering ICE
---

Oregon could lose nearly $18 million worth of terrorism prevention and emergency funding. In the past, the money has paid for bomb detectors, law enforcement training and barriers that prevent cars from plowing into crowds.

Public Citizen: Mushrooming Risk: Unreliable A.I. Tools Generate Mushroom Misinformation

March 18, 2024

"Emerging A.I. technologies are being deployed to help beginner foragers find edible wild mushrooms. Distinguishing edible mushrooms from toxic mushrooms in the wild is a high-risk activity that requires real-world skills that current A.I. systems cannot reliably emulate.

Individuals relying solely on A.I. technology for mushroom identification have been severely sickened and hospitalized after consuming wild mushrooms that A.I. systems misidentified as edible."

You forgot the option of "None".

Touchscreens should never be used in safety-critical systems.

Every control that takes the driuver's attention away from driving is a safety-critical problem.

@djoerd hahaha, inderdaad, ik word op onze @Radboud_uni bij mijn eerste zoveel inlogpogingen bij MS (voor mijn werkagenda) altijd al na 0 seconden automatisch uitgelogd. "We are signing you out, please close all your windows" krijg ik dan na het overtypen van die MFA codes. Tot 3x toe als ik geluk heb #safety :S

Reminder: Salmonella — even the most dangerous strains — perishes at 165 degrees Fahrenheit, and a meat thermometer is the only surefire way to tell if your turkey has reached that temperature.

Today's ODT editorial is scathing of Brooke van Velden's determination to weaken NZ's workplace safety regulations, and to absolve employers from any responsibility when they kill or injure an employee.

Scathing!

It's worth a read.

I’m so ashamed …

This week, the UK Home Secretary proposed shocking #asylum reforms that could seize the possessions and jewellery of people seeking #safety, cut off their support and tear apart #families who have built their lives here.

This is performative cruelty reminiscent of #Nazi Germany.

Sign and share this urgent letter to stop the #UK government punishing #innocent families fleeing #war.
