There has been a temporary telecommunications outage - out of an abundance of caution all flights have been halted. Every flight has been accounted for and international flights will be handled on a case by case basis.

New York City is on the verge of banning surveillance pricing. As a new Congress weighs how to tackle the affordability crisis, we’re showing what’s possible.

Random thought when listening to recent @macrodosepod ep: at global heart of semiconductor industry, a wildcat strike wants Micron to follow local trend and provide workers profit sharing (in cash). Wonder what's the current status of profit sharing demands in the U.S.?

If you or I called in a fake homicide tip, fraudulently applied for 20 visas and hacked websites, we’d be arrested and prosecuted. The same standard must apply to AI CEOs. Prosecute CEOs when their products break the law and pause advanced AI NOW.

Big Ag lobbyists are working behind closed doors on a last-minute bill to promote driverless tractors and other earth-moving farm equipment, jeopardizing both the safety and the jobs of California farmworkers. Farmworkers aren't guinea pigs. Period. We call on our legislative leaders to reject this dangerous, eleventh hour proposal.

Dragonflies are one of summer's best signs. With more than 100 species identified in NYC, these expert fliers spend most of their lives underwater as nymphs before emerging into their winged adult form. Keep an eye out on your next park visit.
