A reminder that even now, at the peak of Iran's attack, many more innocent people are being killed in Gaza than in Israel, and that you won't read a word about them in any Western news source. It's as if they are invisible, or at least regarded as subhuman, by our newsrooms
This horror is still happening and you won’t see a single headline about it in Western media today.

Dear @myogiadityanath I am hoping that this would reach you and the water logging issue can be resolved at the earliest at noida sector 50 market- nobody seems to know the person responsible to fix this mess and I was asked to tweet by locals. @CeoNoida @noida_authority

Congratulations on a very timely documentary on the emerging Indian dominance in chess. Well done @NavoditaKumari 👏🏽
Its been 2 mnths since we applied for #canadianvisa to cover the #CandidatesTournament. There's no response. It wil b unfortunate to miss witnessing for the first time in history star brother-sister @chessvaishali @rpraggnachess participating. @CitImmCanada

Scientific publishing etiquette: 1. Scientists should be allowed to publish their research. 2. Publications should include the names of all contributors in the author list. 3. Junior contributors who actually did the work should be placed at the beginning of the author list. 4.
@elonmusk Seriously though, you should let your researchers put their name on papers that describe their research. Or else what you pay them amounts to hush money. I'm sure they're pretty pissed about it.

Hey @AppleSupport @Apple can you let us record screen with captioning for sound so that the screen recordings are accessible from the get go ? Thank you. @AccessibleEUR @MSFTEnable @googleaccess @appleinsider

It’s impossible to be at the Rafah crossing & not feel heartbroken. Behind these walls there are 2 million people in Gaza with no water, food, medicine, fuel. On this side, these trucks have what they need. We need to make them move—as soon as possible, as many as necessary.

While I recognize Israel’s legitimate security concerns, I also remind Israel that military operations must be conducted in strict accordance with int'l humanitarian law. Civilians must be respected & protected at all times. Civilian infrastructure must never be a target.

This is creating more tension and anticipation than supporting a favourite team or player in a high stake tournament / game.

However, when it comes to leveraging AI for its own operational efficiency / reducing cost / optimising business processes, they can both be laggards. Hopefully, they can learn from their knowledge and leapfrog in coming decade.

Unpopular opinion: What’s common between #Acadmia and #InternationalOrganisation when it comes to #AI ? Both convene experts on AI and talk about AI’s implications and offering policy recommendations through expert consultations.

I hope the invitées to @wef have offset the carbon emission from using their private jet. The organiser should definitely nudge them into doing this. Would you consider this a greenwashing attempt?

Another testimony to endorsing accessibility in digital product design from grounds up.
Startups usually ignore accessibility—since they’re just trying to prove that a product works. But when testing Gas, we started seeing screenshots on Snapchat that looked off. We found that over 20% of teens have Zoom-mode enabled, so we prioritized it & saw our K-factor jump 0.1

Congratulations @IFT_MX and @GobCDMX for an excellent wifi coverage throughout the #CDMX Mexico City. I rarely had to rely on my roaming connectivity to be able to access #ICT services. May all #SmartCities emulate this. @ITUAmericas @WSISprocess
