New: San Franciscans were aghast by Marc Benioff’s hard tight turn. Turns out his company, Salesforce, is seeking new contracts with ICE to help it triple its ranks under the Trump administration.
nytimes.com
The San Francisco-based firm has told ICE that it could use A.I. to help the agency nearly triple its staff. The company’s C.E.O., once a progressive tech titan, has embraced President Trump.

We stand by our reporting. Here is the full story that DHS is dismissing: https://t.co/yPvwxIbOo2 It relies on footage that anyone can watch for themselves. We also explain exactly how we did it ⤵️
.@ProPublica is wasting more ink with disgusting smears against our brave @ICEgov law enforcement, as they are facing more than a 1000% increase in assaults against them. We have said it a million times: DHS enforcement operations are HIGHLY TARGETED and are not resulting in the

Exclusive: The ambitious bid by one of the country’s top research universities to expand into downtown #SanFrancisco appears to have focused on a signature block that’s struggled with vacancy, despite a longstanding plan to revitalize it. @sfchronicle

City officials confirmed to the Chronicle earlier this year that they’re in serious talks with the university about opening a downtown San Francisco campus, now the location appears more evident.

“I meet founders who have basically no revenue, no product and sometimes not even a team—They're raising $5M-$30M-plus for the initial round. It’s quite incredible, actually.” #SanFrancisco has fully embraced AI. What if the boom goes bust? @sfchronicle

The question isn’t whether an AI bubble is about to burst, but how San Francisco will handle what comes next, and what the city will become because of it.

Extraordinary NEW story: We Found That More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. https://t.co/c4f165DKRa

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And...

An amazing restrospective feature on the Cybertruck from our November issue...featuring at least one test drive to Ikea and one Cybertruck owner doing squats in front of his car:

Elon Musk’s car from space offered a vision for a sustainable and autonomous future. All along, it was as awkward, easily bruised, and volatile as the entrepreneur himself.

Not happy. Censorship isn’t the way. I gave money to IU general fund for the IDS last year, so they could pay everyone and not run a deficit. I gave more than they asked for. I told them I’m happy to help because the IDS is important to kids at IU
IU previously directed the Indiana Daily Student to stop printing news coverage in our paper. Upon pushback, IU fully cut print, including our special editions. The IDS was not involved in the decision. Letter from the editors to come.
