Libertarians and Socialists and Jill Stein—Oh, My! - The New Yorker

Larry King moderated a Free & Equal debate in 2012, but this time the duties fell to Caitlin Sinclair, of One America News Network; Christina Tobin, the founder of Free & Equal and a longtime activist against the two-party system; and Jason Palmer, an entrepreneur and a long-shot candidate himself. (Last week, somehow, Palmer beat Biden in the American Samoa caucuses, in which a total of ninety-one votes were cast.) Jill Stein—the Green Party candidate in 2012 and 2016, and the debate’s front-ru…

Among the A.I. Doomsayers - The New Yorker

Grace, the lead researcher at a nonprofit called A.I. Impacts, describes her job as “thinking about whether A.I. will destroy the world.” She spends her time writing theoretical papers and blog posts on complicated decisions related to a burgeoning subfield known as A.I. safety. She is a nervous smiler, an oversharer, a bit of a mumbler; she’s in her thirties, but she looks almost like a teen-ager, with a middle part and a round, open face. The apartment is crammed with books, and when a friend…

Jon Ronson's Guide to the Culture Wars - The New Yorker

Season 1 ranges broadly, examining the contingent origins of rifts that now seem inevitable—the roots of the evangelical church’s fixation on abortion, for instance, or the first major case of Internet censorship. Season 2 has a tighter frame: eight conflicts that culminate within a few weeks of one another, in May and June of 2020. The first episode begins in the late nineteen-eighties, when several African American sex workers were killed in Miami. To explain the killings, the coroner invented…

Columbia Suspended Pro-Palestine Student Groups. The Faculty ... - ...

Ahmed, who is fifty-two, wears chunky black glasses, several rings, a salt-and-pepper beard, and nail polish on his left hand. That day, he had on a charcoal-gray suit, a white scarf, and a green watch cap. “The colors of the Palestinian flag,” he said. “Well, most of them. I couldn’t find anything red that went with this ’fit.” On Broadway, he found a shop that could handle his request: a huge blue poster (“Faculty Protest for Academic Freedom”) and an even bigger black poster with the marquee…

Raiders of the Lost Archival Jazz Recordings - The New Yorker

Feldman also specializes in Bill Evans, Larry Young, and Lee Morgan; he was passing through New York after interviewing Herbie Hancock and just before interviewing Ron Carter. (Both musicians are in their eighties; Feldman is fifty, but in his line of work he often comes across as a bright-eyed intern.) He lives in the D.C. suburbs, alone, unless you count his fifty-three hundred records and seventy-five hundred CDs. “I’ll come back from L.A. or Paris with a suitcase full of records and have now…

How Israel Is Splitting the Democrats - The New Yorker

On October 7th, Ramer’s sixth day on the job, he woke up to the news that Hamas militants had broken through the border fence in Gaza and started slaughtering and kidnapping Israeli civilians. “My first reaction was to be sickened by the bloodshed,” he said. “My second thought was, When Israel responds, it’s going to get so much worse.” Ramer, a redhead with a mustache, is descended from Mennonite pacifists on both sides of his family. His grandfather, a conscientious objector during the Vietnam…

Jack Antonoff's Gift for Pop-Music Collaboration - The New Yorker

When his band releases an album, the world responds politely. When he produces one by Lorde or Lana Del Rey or Taylor Swift, the world wobbles on its axis.
