Homeless-related arrests, citations soared in LA and other California cities after Supreme Court case

LAist | M Tama/Getty
LAist | M Tama/Getty

Doctors, academics and social workers who work with people on the street often say arrests make it harder for unhoused people to get back on their feet. When someone living outside gets a citation, they often miss their court date — they might lose the ticket or simply forget the date amidst the chaos of life on the street — which leads the court to issue a warrant for their arrest. People with active warrants can’t qualify for many housing and treatment programs.

Thornbury, 31, filed a candidate affidavit with the city clerk’s office on June 5. She is a licensed clinical social worker. Inspired to run for local office in part by her opposition to many of the policies being enacted at the federal level by the Trump Administration, Thornbury said she wants to “build community” and promote “local resistance.”

Can We See Our Future in China’s Cameras?

NYT | G Sabrié
NYT | G Sabrié

I can’t imagine such blasé faith in public safety back when I last lived in China in 2013, but on this visit it was true: Cameras gawked from poles, flashed as we drove through intersections, lingered on faces as we passed through stations or shops. And that was just the most obvious edge of the ubiquitous, multilayered tracking that has come to define life in China. I came away troubled by my time in some of the world’s most-surveilled places — not on China’s account, but because I felt that I’d gotten a taste of our own American future. Wasn’t this, after all, the logical endpoint of an evolution already underway in America?

My father could have changed the world. Instead, he changed mine

The Walrus | iStock
The Walrus | iStock

All my fleeting memories of my father from the acreage are of his anger, or of me in his shadow. In one strong memory, my sisters and I were in the back seat of the car, my mom was in the front, and my dad was in the driver’s seat. We were in some kind of work yard. This was years before my dad started selling drugs, or rather, this was one of the stints when he had a trades job. Our dog, Buddy, had just died after getting hit by a car in front of our property. My mother broke the news to my father, and I watched a flood of sadness wash over his eyes, but only for a second, until he covered it with anger.

Is AI a con? A new book punctures the hype and proposes some ways to resist

The Conversation | Penguin Books
The Conversation | Penguin Books

Using AI to review coverage saves insurers time and resources, especially because it means fewer medical professionals are needed to review each case. But the financial benefit to insurers doesn’t stop there. If an AI system quickly denies a valid claim, and the patient appeals, that appeal process can take years. If the patient is seriously ill and expected to die soon, the insurance company might save money simply by dragging out the process in the hope that the patient dies before the case is resolved.

Quebec provides universal childcare for less than $7 a day. Here’s what the US can learn

The Guardian | B Quintino
The Guardian | B Quintino

As soon as she found out that she was pregnant, Freeman, a social worker, placed her daughter on a handful of waiting lists through a government website. Now she can drop her daughter off for up to 10 hours a day, between 6am and 6pm, five days a week, all year round. In addition to childcare, Grace sees a speech therapist at the CPE. A daily menu of the home-cooked meals and snacks is posted at the building’s entrance every morning; meals are on a monthly rotation with seasonal changes and locally sourced produce when available. All this is possible because in 1997, Quebec lawmakers enacted a universal childcare program as part of an effort to give equal opportunities to all children – especially kids from low-income families – to get young mothers back to work and to increase the government’s tax revenue and eliminate the province’s budget deficit.

The new policy means that community flags, such as the Pride flag and the disabled people’s flag, will not automatically be raised in the inner quadrangle at County Hall to celebrate events and celebration days. Instead, a decision will be taken by the chief executive ‘following consultation with the leader of the council’, the party’s Dan Harrison, over whether they can fly or not, leading some to fear they will not be flown going forward.

Scrapping the national census raises data sovereignty and surveillance fears for Māori

The Conversation | Getty
The Conversation | Getty

As Te Mana Raraunga (the Māori Data Sovereignty Network) advocates, data is a living taonga (treasure), is of strategic value to Māori, and should be subject to Māori governance. Changes to census methods risk compromising these values – and undermining public trust in the official statistics system in general. Because the new system takes census data gathering out of the hands of individual citizens and households, it also raises questions about state surveillance and social licence.

As Pennsylvania inches toward legalizing recreational cannabis, lawmakers propose selling it in state-owned dispensaries similar to state liquor stores

State-owned cannabis stores
The biggest challenge for legalization in Pennsylvania will be navigating those internal political dynamics – especially finding a compromise that can be supported by both Democrats and Republicans. Public safety is often raised as a concern during legalization debates. To counter this point, Democrats in the state House have proposed selling legal cannabis in state-owned stores, just like how liquor and some wine is sold in Pennsylvania now.

How much you ‘body-wander’ could affect your mental health

psyche | J Cohen/Unsplash

Let’s return to your recent stream of consciousness: were you purely absorbed in abstract thoughts or were you also aware of your body? Could you feel your heart beating? The rhythm of your breath against your chest, mouth or nose? Maybe a flutter in your stomach? If so, what thoughts or feelings, if any, occurred at the same time as, or just before or after, the bodily sensations? My colleagues and I refer to these body-related thoughts in the stream of consciousness as ‘body-wandering’, a mental process that we think could play an important – yet overlooked – role in many people’s emotional wellbeing.

This was a straightforward triumph of people over money, the kind that capitalist elites try so hard to convince is impossible. Cuomo’s campaign was bankrolled by $25 million from some of the worst actors in American life — more than $8 million from billionaire and former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg; $2.5 million from a landlord group; $1 million from DoorDash, a food delivery app deeply dependent on the exploitation of low-wage workers; and half a million from Bill Ackman, a… hedge funder who has been attempting to destroy the campus Palestinian solidarity movement (and with it, all of American higher education) — in total comprising the largest super PAC in the history of New York City mayoral campaigns. Mamdani didn’t just beat money as usual, he beat an extraordinary mobilization of money.

This dramatic change in the law comes a year and a half after a ProPublica investigation showed how the hotline had been weaponized by jealous exes, spiteful landlords and others who endlessly called in baseless allegations. Even if a caller didn’t leave their name or any details, and even if the same allegation had repeatedly been investigated and found to be unsubstantiated, it automatically triggered an invasive search of the accused’s home and often a strip search of the children.

Recent polling from Gallup shows that Americans’ support for same-sex marriage is higher than it was in 2015. Gallup’s latest data, however, finds a 47-percentage-point gap on the issue between Republicans and Democrats, the largest since it first began tracking this measure 29 years ago. The size of that chasm is partially due to a substantial dip in support among Republicans since 2023.

Look at Labour’s cruel attitude towards disability benefits, then tell me Keir Starmer cares about ‘human dignity’

The Guardian | M Kenyon
The Guardian | M Kenyon

Amid predictions of a big parliamentary revolt and wild speculation that the vote could even be pulled, it is worth thinking about how Labour’s collective belief in the dignity of labour regularly curdles into two toxic ways of thinking. One is a belief that paid employment is the only reliable gauge of people’s esteem; the other is a queasiness about disability that sometimes lurks just below the surface. There is also an apparently desperate need to counter any suggestion that Labour ministers are liberal fainthearts. In March, the justice secretary, Shabana Mahmood, offered a curt explanation of why the government was set on its plan: “This is the Labour party. The clue is in the name. We believe in work.”

This moment in our industrial history is a critical juncture, one which presents us with an opportunity to democratize the control and use of AI, and to remake the welfare state in a way commensurate to the change and consistent with the social, political, and cultural goals we collectively choose. We should seize it and make AI work for us, at our command.

The Dutch city thought it could break a decade-long trend of implementing discriminatory algorithms. Its failure raises the question: can these programs ever be fair?

MIT Technology Review | C Jahchan
MIT Technology Review | C Jahchan

Proponents of these assessment systems argue that they can create more efficient public services by doing more with less and, in the case of welfare systems specifically, reclaim money that is allegedly being lost from the public purse. In practice, many were poorly designed from the start. They sometimes factor in personal characteristics in a way that leads to discrimination, and sometimes they have been deployed without testing for bias or effectiveness. In general, they offer few options for people to challenge—or even understand—the automated actions directly affecting how they live. The result has been more than a decade of scandals.
