I was trying to find an alternative to the current but paywalled Washington Post article - apparently they've paid another settlement about the same case. I assumed it was the same event, and didn't check the date.

In mid-October, people began to notice that if one’s Instagram bio said “Palestinian” in English alongside the Palestinian flag emoji and “Praise be to god” in Arabic, the app translated the text to “Terrorist.” Meta released a public apology.

Holy shit, Zuck!

It's a good thing that birds aren't real, and already have RemoteID built-in.

Rod Fujita, director of research and development for EDF’s oceans program, questions the approach of growing kelp for combating climate change. It’s hard to measure how much carbonseaweed sequesters, he notes, because fish and microbes feed on seaweed, then exhale it as carbon dioxide.

Also, they're not just using sunlight and carbon dioxide, but also extracting other nutrients from the ecosystem and sequestering it with the carbon.

Every nightfall, cranks mounted on a floating platform lower the ring 25 meters below the surface to expose the seaweed to cooler, more nutrient-rich water.

I could see this going wrong in a number of ways. I hope they permit a lot of open research on the initiative so there are several layers of accountability and everyone can learn from it.
