  1. A quotation from Abraham Fortas

    Any departure from absolute regimentation may cause trouble. Any variation from the majority’s opinion may inspire fear. Any word spoken, in class, in the lunchroom, or on the campus, that deviates from the view of another person may start an argument or cause a disturbance. But our Constitution says we must take this risk, and our history says that it is this sort of hazardous freedom — this kind of openness — that is the basis of our national strength and of the independence and vigor of Americans who grow up and live in this relatively permissive, often disputatious, society.

    Abraham Fortas (1910–1982) American academic, jurist, lawyer; US Supreme Court Justice (1965–69)
    Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District, 393 U.S. 503, 508 (1969) [majority opinion]

    --
    “HIGHLIGHTS:
    • ViT-based forest mask, multispectral ensemble LandTrendr and terrain shadow mask.
    • District-level RF/XGBoost model training with expert-weighted validation.
    • Outperformed GFC and REDD + AI benchmarks in accuracy and F1 performance.
    • RF excelled in High Mountains/Himalayas; XGBoost in the lower Mountain regions.
    • NBR contributed the most; snow-impacted forest loss uncertainty was observed..."
