Waterproof stickers resembling the terrazzo stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame are printed with Epstein's likeness below the names and titles of politicians, billionaires, arts patrons, and other figures mentioned in the recently released batch of 3 million files related to the convicted sex offender.
Lee says in that same post that he "got a random cold call from some woman asking about numbers and told her some bs, did not expect an article about it." But that call occurred because Cluely's public relations representative emailed TechCrunch and offered to make Lee available for a story.
The pace at which we're all working today doesn't naturally lend itself to being reflective. As a leader, you don't get enough quiet time. The thought leaders and business leaders I work with figure out how to make it part of their routine. For some, it's during a commute, a workout, a shower, or a walk. For others, it's a more involved practice where they shut down their devices and spend scheduled time reflecting.
They're too dumb to know they're in a bad school," said Friedman, who is a professor at Hunter College. She then appeared to misattribute and misquote Black historian Carter G. Woodson. "Apparently Martin Luther King said it: If you train a Black person well enough, they'll know to use the back. You don't have to tell them anymore," Friedman said.
A deeply sensitive, unverified allegation is circulating in Hip-Hop after an interview aired on Doggie Diamonds TV, where a Staten Island woman identifying herself as Tai claimed she is related to members of the Wu-Tang family circle and described what she says was a traumatic, long-suppressed situation. Host Doggie Diamonds opened the segment sounding shaken, telling viewers: "In my whole 19-year career, I'm baffled." He added, "I don't even know what to say."
One of the industry's most persistent misconceptions is that accountability lives downstream. Better reporting. Better attribution. Better dashboards. But, in reality, accountability begins far earlier, at the point where a business decides what it accepts as truth about identity. Who is real? Who is reachable? Who is persistent? Who has changed? Who should not be acted on at all? The uncomfortable reality is that every optimization decision that follows is only as credible as the answers to those questions.
Why would you be so reckless, and where's your damn apology? asked Kelly. You make yourself into a James Clapper. This is supposed to be a more transparent administration, and what President Trump doesn't need is a liar in the position of commerce secretary, about something as serious as your connections with Jeffrey Epstein, and it was such a bold-faced lie.
Accepting the Most Valuable Film prize at the Cinema for Peace Awards for her project The Voice of Hind Rajab, Ben Hania stated that the killing of the five-year-old Palestinian girl by the Israeli army was not an exception, but part of a systematic genocide. Peace is not a perfume sprayed over violence so power can feel refined, and can feel comfortable, Ben Hania told the audience. If we speak about peace, we must speak about justice. Justice means accountability.
On October 15th, 2024, I saw a picture of myself sitting by the pool and didn't recognize myself. It was the biggest I'd ever been, and I felt like it wasn't really me. I decided to go a year without added sugar, and I lost some weight. If anything had even one gram of added sugar, I didn't eat it for a full year.
"I think that parenting needs to be called out of the last 40 years," Vaynerchuk said. "I believe that the burnout, the insecurity, all the stuff we talk about, I believe the reason we're buying more stuff is, we're using it as Band-Aids and glitter because we're not strong enough to be secure in what we are and who we are and what we have."
Security leaders are under pressure to move quickly. Vendors are racing to embed generative and agentic AI into their platforms, often promoting automation as a solution to skills shortages, alert fatigue, and response latency. In principle, these benefits are real, but many AI-backed tools are being deployed faster than the controls needed to govern them safely. Once AI is embedded in security platforms, oversight becomes harder to enforce.
"Requests coming in through 311 were often assigned through long text chains and phone calls," Tisch said at the annual State of the NYPD address earlier this week. "Supervisors tracked jobs by hand, and officers didn't always have a clear picture of what was assigned, what was still open, or who was responsible for follow-up. ... That might work when volume is low. It doesn't work in a city of eight million people."
You've hired smart people, and you've invested in tools. You've also restructured more than once. Given all these, on paper, everything should work. But the reality is different. Decisions take longer than they should, and ownership gets blurred. Teams move, then stall, then circle back. You step in more than you want to, not because you enjoy it, but because progress depends on you doing so.
It wasn't about the person. It was about me. It was so scary. I didn't know then how to go, 'Hey, can I talk to you privately?' Now, I would want to believe that I could have taken this person aside," she argued. "A lot of people say that we've become too woke, but I think, no, it's great. The pendulum needs to swing to the other side so that we can find a balance in between.
One came in the form of an open letter from more than 60 Minnesota-based CEOs, released by the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce. The letter exemplifies a now-familiar pattern of corporate timidity and reticence: it takes no position, names no facts, and identifies no responsible actor. Instead, it relies on generic language about "de-escalation" and "finding real solutions," urging officials at all levels of government to work together in response to what it vaguely describes as "yesterday's tragic news."
No government agency, none, has the authority to act as judge, jury and executioner. Extrajudicial killings violate the Constitution, they violate human rights, and violate the most basic standards of democracy," Coletta Zapata said. "Boston has a responsibility to say that out loud. And it is a declaration that Boston will not be silent when federal power is abused.
Businesses are acting fast to adopt agentic AI- artificial intelligence systems that work without human guidance-but have been much slower to put governance in place to oversee them, a new survey shows. That mismatch is a major source of risk in AI adoption. In my view, it's also a business opportunity. I'm a professor of management information systems at Drexel University's LeBow College of Business,
Have you ever played the "blame game"? It's easy to point a finger at others, and when you do that - three fingers are usually pointing back at you. For some, it is difficult to choose accountability as you look into the mirror. After a firing of bosses, some use that as the excuse that the system was flawed - and maybe it was in partial terms. One bad apple shouldn't spoil the whole bunch.
"I want to start by saying a bold and uncomfortable truth: Accreditation today is no longer a reliable indicator of the gold standard of education," Kent said.
After federal agents killed Alex Pretti, Trump-administration figures including Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller described the victim as a terrorist, indicating their desire to ignore or intimidate all opposition. But other Republican sources signaled their discomfort, and some called for an investigation-a routine step for a normal presidency, but a daring breach of partisan discipline in an administration that shields itself from accountability and tries to put itself above the law.
Mr. Secretary, do you think that there's any responsibility among the ICE officers, though, to be able to deal with these things in a way that does not end in tragic death? Sorkin began. I mean, I do think that, you know, you blamed Tim Walz, you blamed Biden, you blamed lots of people that have not shot people! You go back and look at what's happened in Minnesota over the years Hold on a second, Duffy interrupted.
