two guys named Lorentz and Lorenz came up with an equation and it was corrected by Ericson and her husband Ericson
This piece is another example of how evidentiary standards for covering young people basically don't exist. It's a take on the supposedly widespread and normal use of this language anchored around guesstimates from two (2) people about behavior at a single high school.

The conversation I have had with each of my kids: "if you *ever* run into a problem online and you think you're in trouble, you can *always* come talk to me about it, and if you think I will be upset about a choice you made just start out by saying 'I may need some help.'" And I will take that...
In my son's Grade 11 career ed class (in Canada) this past fall, they had to watch 'Dragon's Den'. For weeks and weeks.

NEW: The Trump admin clamped down on Anthropic following a spat over the company granting South Korean telecom giant SK Telecom access to Claude Mythos.
Why? US officials were concerned the company may have ties to China.

Related: People I know IRL who know what I do for a living often ask what they need to know about online safety for their about-to-be-teenagers, and there's a lot of answers, but the thing I always emphasize most is: under no circumstances should you ever threaten to take access away from them.

And a lot of you post the photos but put an emoji sticker over the kid's face or whatever: that is really, really, really not sufficient to prevent people from doing things with them you do not want to know about. Do not post photos of your kids online, period.

I am one of those people who is *really, really good* at identifying exactly where and when a photo was taken from basic context clues (a skill I developed for human rights research and journalism purposes).
Trust me on this, don’t post photos of your kids on the public internet.

People can absolutely determine the exact location of an image by analyzing lighting, shadows, landmarks, or natural elements in the background. The amount of data needed to identify someone—or even their current location—is shockingly small. Any privacy book worth it's salt explains this.
