This is an important read: 1/ The well- worn lesson- that early warning is rarely the problem, the problem is translating that information into action - applies even when you have impressive tech tools supporting your early warning efforts, is worth remaining cognizant of...
... especially in the midst of what feels like a relentless march toward funding for digital documentation of atrocities. 2/ Refreshing to see the complex ethical challenges of this technology being proactively considered by those who are using it for good.....
Per @nattyray11 "What we did there [through the SSP] for good, anyone else could do for any reason.”
Also, pro tip- good general practice to pay serious attention to whatever @nattyray11 on this topic. [ @threadreaderapp unroll]

THREAD: To the thousands who rallied around #SaveDarfur then turned to other issues in subsequent years, now is the time to turn your attention back to Sudan.
#SaveDarfur peaked at a time when the USG had the little leverage to really turn the tide on the ground. But today, USG policies can be a game-changer. The situation is incredibly precarious. Success is not assured. Spoilers abound.
But if our policy is only to support democratic transitions certain of success, then we have no policy. The Sudanese ppl have done this for themselves. The least that countries who say they care about democracy can do is step up in solidarity: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…

& now with link live to the whole symposium: cambridge.org/core/journals/… with essays from Larissa van den Herik and Alex Huneeus, Alexa Koenig, Emma Irving, Nancy Amoury Combs, and Colette Rausch. Thanks to the @AJIL_Unbound team for the great editing! cc @pulitzercenter @IRP_media
It's only 5 pgs, but if you don't have time, here's the bottom line: "The new media landscape is comparatively poorly equipped to raise an early warning alarm in a way that will spur preventive action, but that it is well-positioned to sustain attention to ongoing atrocities....
...Unfortunately, such later stages of a crisis generally provide the most limited policy options for civilian protection." Unroll @threadreaderapp

TW: denial of medical care for trans people

St Joseph’s Hospital (in Baltimore MD) denied my partner medical care he needed, for no reason other than he is transgender.
This happened last week, but we’ve been collecting our feelings for a few days before posting. We’ve been a mess of anxiety, fear, anger, shock, denial, pain, and frantic attempts to reschedule.
It isn’t easy to be told your very legitimate medical needs won’t be attended to because of who you are. By the very people whose job it is to care for you.

When I came on twitter, I didn’t come with the purpose of sharing cash. I came to share and gain knowledge. With degrees across different fields( Human Nutrition, Public Health,Economics, International Relations, Public Policy and Political Science), I felt that this place would
Be a veritable platform where a researcher like me can curate information for my academic and political interests. I was not disappointed. The level of intelligence exuded by most folks here is unbelievable. But I also noticed a certain frustration and despondency amongst
Many of the teeming youthful users of this platform. The turning point for me was when one of my early followers committed suicide shortly after sending a DM pleading for assistance, a DM I only read two weeks later( during the early days, I rarely checked DMs). This broke me.

#ChildhoodCancer A thread on brain and spinal cancers (AKA CNS) in children. CC my comrade arms @tumisole
CNS stands for central neurological system and this includes the brain and spinal cord.
The cells of this system are fast dividing especially in children who are still developing and are therefore prone to errors. When the body fails to kill off an erroneous cell, a tumour develops. The failure to kill these cells is associated with another defect in genes
This defect leads to failure to produce an important protein that suppresses tumour growth. There are some conditions that run in families that predispose to tumours of the CNS, amongst them and what we see here in SA are Neurofibomatosis, Tuberous Sclerosis, Li Fraumeni

Banyak banget yang nanya, ngerjain startup tu asik ya? Gw share dikit ya ilmu gw di per-startup-an selama 13 tahun terakhir. Bakal panjang ya jadi sabar-sabar ngikutinnya
Gw yakin banyak banget di sini yang ngebayangin jadi kaya Mark Zuckerberg gara-gara nonton the social network. Bikin startup tidak seindah itu, apalagi jaman sekarang, PENUH PENDERITAAN. Iya lo ga salah baca. PENUH PENDERITAAN. Tapi bukan berarti ga asik kok sob nanti lo liat
Pengalaman startup pertama gw dimulai tahun 2005. Startup pertama gw adalah sebuat software house. Jaman itu masih ngenes lah. Kenapa ngenes? Itu jamannya masih kalo lo di bidang IT harus bisa jadi superman yang bisa segala macem dan dibayar serendah mungkin
