Picture this. An investor from the U.S. buys an abandoned building in Puerto Rico for $108k. Holds it for 7 years untouched and lists it for $360k. In the meantime, locals illegally enter and use it to cook for ppl after the hurricane. The “squatters” get to keep the building.
@f_bott For me, I might be less vehemently opposed if there was something productive that happened with the photos/recordings. But as it stands, we what? Are inundated with autoplay videos and carnage on our feeds and in news coverage as the violence rolls on unabated?
Reading about the shooting in the Texas mall and this line is really sticking with me. “Spainhouer said he got there before any first responders and while a handful of people around him recorded videos of the bodies on the ground, he tried to save lives.”
What’s more exciting than responsible computing resources? Responsible computing resources applied through alternative and creative practices! So excited to incorporate this into our curriculum, and encourage everyone to give it a look!

Professors making decent wages but demanding grad students live just above the poverty line is one of the most enraging parts of social reproduction & discipline in academia—a glorification of “temporary” downward mobility as an intellectual rite of passage we simply don’t need!!
Nick Okafor BS '16 is the founder of @_trubel_ , a platform that integrates STEM education with civic innovation. His work explores using data responsibly to improve cities through a culturally competent lens. RSVP for lunch with @_astoldbynick at gephardtinstitute.wustl.edu/calendar_event…
