Disgusting reporting by BBC using a tiny number of cases to suggest widespread abuse of a system which routinely denies LGBTQIA+ individuals asylum and forces them back into environments of persecution. This article massively distorts the reality of the situation. 1/

Hegseth embraces the perception that Iran is an improv war: “Our adversary right now thinks there are 15 diff ways we could come at them with boots on the ground & guess what? There are. … the point is to be unpredictable [and to] certainly not let anybody know what you’re willing to do or not do.“

My and @henrikdku.bsky.social paper on regulating AI is accepted in Journal of Business Ethics! We argue for domain specific theorising and against the use of abstract thought experiments: autonomous cars are better understood as participants in the traffic institution than as trolleys, for example.
Excited to present work in progress at two @hist-isanet.bsky.social panels at the @isanet.bsky.social convention in Columbus this week - one today, another on Tuesday. Details below! 👇 #HistIR
