Proud to call @adlan.bsky.social a colleague. His response to the mole people question is the sort of deeply thoughtful, humanistic engagement with the issues of the day from which we all benefit.
Update in the case of Frank Seddio and the missing $2 million:
Seddio was on the stand yesterday in a hearing on possible sanctions against him. He testified that someone—he doesn’t know who—must have sent a key legal email from his account, but it wasn’t him.
