I will never know if this administration *wants* to delegitimize the US census, but they sure are doing a fantastic job of it. The amazing Gillian Tett offers a portrait of what's happening: giftarticle.ft.com

Cynthia Dwork & other privacy experts show why Trump Admin’s politically motivated decision to prevent the Census Bureau from using the best methods to protect confidentiality will end up with worse quality data, less publicly available data, and/or a privacy breach. scottaaronson.blog

Delighted to see the Covid Inquiry used one of our Winton Centre graphics in their vaccine report (p 215). But they chose the 'medium' exposure (February), rather than the more relevant 'low' exposure (March). I think this is misleading. Related

Their words
And my hunch is that the archaeological evidence that we have on this score is ultimately misleading, because I think this: that probably for a very, very long time before the Sumerians, people in the world, the world of what we call the Middle East, were in contact.

Hi @MTA this UX is misleading. The turnstile didn’t take @OMNY_Info but *did* allow entry via regular MetroCard. “NO ENTRY” is wrong. Related
Nothing matches. Show everything
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
