Could AR glasses let us "install" apps onto any object? Hoping those @apple rumors prove true 🤞

We're organizing a new workshop on data contamination (CONDA) at ACL2024! CFP below Contamination is when test data was included in training, for any reason. A lot of research is needed to understand when this happens, or prevent it. Consider submitting! x.com/osainz59/status/175191…

This is a very cool project

If this is the way an @aclmeeting member responds to the murder of my family on October 7th by erasing 3,000 years of Jewish history I think this underscores the need for moral clarity and such an ethics statement!

BREAKING: The “few bad apples” line pushed by the UN has just been obliterated. The Wall Street Journal front page is reporting that an estimated 1,200 Unrwa employees in Gaza are actual “operatives” of Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and about half have close relatives who belong to the Islamist terrorist organizations, according to Israeli intelligence estimates shared with the U.S. government. The report said 23% of Unrwa’s male employees—the agency has a total staff of 12,000 in Gaza—took active part in the Hamas organization’s military or political framework, a higher percentage than the average of 15% for adult males in Gaza. The information in the Israeli intelligence reports is based on sensitive signals intelligence as well as cellphone tracking data, interrogations of captured Hamas gunmen and documents recovered from dead terrorists. Nearly half of all Unrwa employees—an estimated 49%—also had close relatives with official ties to Hamas and other terrorist groups. The Oct. 7 intelligence reports seen by the Wall Street Journal identified an Unrwa Arabic teacher who was also a Hamas terrorist commander and took part in a terrorist attack on Kibbutz Be’eri, where 97 people were murdered, and about 26 people were kidnapped and taken as hostages to Gaza. Another Unrwa employee, described in the dossier as an Unrwa social worker, played a role in absconding with the body of a dead Israeli soldier, which was taken to Gaza, the reports said. He also coordinated trucks and munitions distributions for Hamas before being killed. 📍Full story by @cjkeller8 & @davidluhnow @WSJ: wsj.com/world/middle-east/at…

.@NorwayPalestine You forgot to disclose here that the head of your foreign ministry is Leni Stenseth who just completed her term as UNRWA Deputy Commissioner General, during which she visited Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar in Gaza and “affirmed her solidarity.” x.com/HillelNeuer/status/175…

Isn’t it interesting that the only two jurists on the ICJ panel who have actually witnessed genocide — Barak during the Holocaust and Sebuntinde in Sudan and Rwanda— voted to dismiss the charges? They’re like … we’ve seen genocide, and this ain’t it.
