Påminnelse. År 2025 lever 700 000 människor i materiell och social fattigdom i Sverige. Det är en ökning med 120 000 på ett år. Bara sedan 2021 har andelen fattiga nästan fördubblats, från 3,5% till 6,6%. Ojämlikheten skenar

This is beyond unsettling and deserves your attention.

This Should Be a Front Page News Story Immigrant women have described a “hell on earth” in ICE detention centers. Few seem to care about what is happening.

AI Experts Say We’re on the Wrong Path to Achieving Human-Like AI An extensive report on the future of AI research indicated that there's skepticism about current approaches to AGI.

I was a member of the panel that produced this report. All of us have spent our careers working on AI. Amongst the hypesters that is probably seen as a disqualification for understanding anything about AI. gizmodo.com/ai-experts-s...

Trump mentioned education in Denmark in his remarks when dismantling the Department of Education.

Denmark has free public schools, no tuition fee in higher education, safe school environments, generally happy kids, a focus on social values, equity, inclusivity.

Tonight, my daughter asked me how the internet works. I happen to know a bit about this and have a book with a cute cat explaining it. We looked through it. She then said she wants be like this cat. To know how information travels and to tell it where to go. She is 4. Best bed time story of my life.
