"On 3 separate occasions during the fall and winter, reporters witnessed Norfolk Southern trains blocking intersections leading to an elementary, a middle and a high school for 4, 6 and 7 hours. @ProPublica and InvestigateTV showed footage of kids making the crossing, including an elementary student crawling under a train, to representatives of Norfolk Southern, lawmakers and Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, whose remit includes rail safety.
He was shocked."

tangent about federated moderation
a bit of a tangent/braindump, but your post sparked the idea since it's public, but deals with instance-specific rules: how do you think about folks from another instance interacting with vis.social members and whether or not they respect some of those rules? It occurs to me that it would be desirable to have, for instance, everyone who I interact with *via* qoto.org follows qoto.org rules, but IDK how that happens practically. Is it reasonable to expect someone to know the rules of *every* server in the fediverse they might stumble upon? If instance admins curate other instances with compatible rules to federate with, and can rely on effective moderation on those others, it's all peachy, but for the broad "federate with everyone except these # servers", it's hard to keep it all straight.
ChatGPT, AI
@kristinHenry out of curiosity: why CW ChatGPT and AI specifically? Is it because they're trendy, so likely to be over-represented?
Here's some shots of an incoming thunderstorm over Lake Crabtree in Cary, #NorthCarolina about an hour ago. Living dangerously with a non-weatherproof camera... thankfully I got it into the bag in time. #Photography #Fujifilm
@est it's a thankless job, shitposting via CS degree buzzword bingo, but somebody's gotta do it
@waddlesplash is there a lineage with Linux strace? or maybe some "horizontal transfer"? I know Linux strace will show you flags and partial buffers and more
Spent some time on Haiku's homegrown `strace`.

@lia_pas ah! I've just been studying inner ear structures in my text book. So cool!
@david recommend not zooming in on the "humans" in 2 and 3 😬
