Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O’Malley has named a special prosecutor to review the death of a woman physically restrained by law enforcement at MetroHealth Medical Center in May.

The move comes after the county medical examiner, Thomas Gilson, ruled 39-year-old Tasha Grant’s death a homicide. Officials said the physical restraint caused Grant’s breathing to slow and, ultimately, her heart to stop.

The Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department is investigating Grant’s death. County officials declined to offer any additional information.

I tried to get it at this pop up vaccination clinic the school i work at was running but they were all "sorry you can't get it you can only get the flu vaccine" because I "didn't sign up in advance and there are limited supplies" and the more I think about it the more I think they just didn't wanna give it to me because how the fuck are there shortages when literally half the country refuses to get it? literally every single one of my coworkers has said they're not getting it. The anti vax moron shit has taken root DEEPLY.

The Long-eared Owl is a nocturnal hunter who often roost in dense foliage, where their camouflage can make them hard to find. Luckily, I spotted this owl roosting in a marsh and sitting on a cattail, allowing me to capture this image with an unobstructed view.

Both factories manufacture only electric cars.

What I mean is if you depend on paid services for things like email or your password manager, you have to be able to guarantee that you will always be able to pay for it or else you will be locked out of that critical service to some extent. For example if you were to sign up for Tutanota and have one email for personal use, another for healthcare, and another for banking, and then at some point you are either in a tough financial spot or your payment method gets lost or stolen, you might lose your email for critical services.

Simple login doesn't have this issue because they promise that even if you stop paying you get to keep the aliases you've made. But most services don't operate like that.

I know the default answer would be "what are the odds you won't be able to afford $10 a month". For context I am poor and have always been poor, so it's very easy for me to understand that even if I become successful there will always be the possibility that I might lose everything, and the whole point of security is preparing for when bad things happen, even if they don't.

I'm curious if anyone else shares this opinion, because I haven't heard anyone else in the privacy space talk about it. Probably because most prominent people aren't dirt poor and don't factor that into their threat model.

Artificial intelligence is in the early part of a “super cycle” that could last 20 years, according to a top investor.

Raj Ganguly, co-founder and co-CEO of venture capital firm B Capital, told CNBC’s “Beyond the Valley” podcast released Friday that AI is going to have a huge, global impact in the coming years.

“We’re in the very early stages, the third or fourth year of this AI super cycle. And it’s probably a 20-year super cycle. Maybe it’s a 15-year super cycle, but it is going to change the world,” Ganguly said.

fck VCs, AI is only to feed their own greed
