RE: https://mastodon.social/@grandrapidsnews/117047207706057484
Sooo... after less than a year of having #AI providing the #News summaries and reporting on their online websites. they've started #layoffs in local #TVStations .
They won't give specific numbers on #employees that are affected, but do give some indication of what positions they are killing off... namely, #producers and #directors - meaning they're slicing into the news department to chop critical roles in production personnel.
Will they try to replace them with AI, too?

#ShreyParikh, 14, an 8th grader from Rancho Cucamonga, California, won the #Scripps National #SpellingBee Thursday, prevailing over Ishaan Gupta, 12, a 7th grader from Jersey City, New Jersey in a dramatic spell-off that tested their speed as much as their precision.
After 18 rounds of orthographic combat, waged over 3 days, it came down to a blistering duel in which each had 90 seconds to correctly spell as many words, served from the same list, as they could.

Sasha Alexander #Gershunov, ocean-atmosphere and #fireweather climate scientist at #Scripps speaks about the #SantaAna phenomenon and wildfires in SoCal.
https://scripps.ucsd.edu/news/california-wildfire-analysis-scripps-oceanography-climate-expertsHe mentions in passing that SoCal is experiencing an upward trend in fire-prone weather (dryness before the normal ultra-dry Santa Ana comes in)
with abundance of fuel load due to atmospheric rivers in the preceding year(s) – and adds, that this trend is not projected for the future.
Whether this means that the statistics are a fluke or that the model projections are missing something that the statistics are telling us, is not said.
In this context, they link to an #openaccess 2022 paper https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00382-022-06361-7
by #Guirguis and Sasha Gershunov et al "Winter wet–dry weather patterns driving atmospheric rivers and Santa Ana winds provide evidence for increasing wildfire hazard in California"
This one paints a broader picture with fireweather_fuel-load teleconnection to the Northwest coast of America, Some form of swing or seesaw pattern of pressure highs and lows.
When I hear teleconnection, I intuitively associate a climate connection.The Scripps article with Sasha Gershunov brings further information. I only cherry-picked this one item. Have a read for more background on LA fires. 🙂

This semester, the progressive, student-run Motley Coffeehouse at Scripps College in Claremont, CA, hung a Palestinian flag in the space. The administration ordered it removed, saying it made the cafe unwelcoming for some. The coffeehouse refused.
This morning, as the cafe was preparing to host a "Market for Mutual Aid" to raise funds for folks in the Congo, Palestine, and Sudan, Scripps shut down the coffeehouse, and in the twisted logic of power, deployed feminist language in doing so, claiming closing the space will preserve "the feminist and intersectional ethos that has shaped the Motley’s culture." As much as Scripps wishes it to be the case, this is certainly not the end of the story.

Learned that Shrey Parikh, a contestant in the #Scripps National #SpellingBee got eliminated because he incorrectly spelled “kanin”, which comes from #Tagalog and means “boiled rice”.
I saw that “kanin“ is indeed included in the #MerriamWebster #dictionary. But as a native Tagalog speaker, I‘m offended that they say that the plural is “kanins“. Even granting that kanin is a valid English word, I say that just like “rice” and also in Tagalog, it should be an uncountable noun.
