New York state could soon pass a “child harassment” law that would criminalize annoying people under 18 and taking photographs of them without consent — even in public!

I wrote for City & State about why First Amendment advocates and public defenders oppose the bill: https://www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2023/05/emma-stone-backed-child-harassment-bill-sparks-first-amendment-youth-incarceration-concerns/386308/

Just got back from the Society of Professional Journalists Region 1 Conference, where I was on a panel about the effects AI-based tools may have on journalism. Also got a chance to meet US Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, who told me that he’d like to reform the Supreme Court but Congress doesn’t have the votes to impeach Justice Clarence Thomas.

I'm not sure how many of my followers live in New York or pay close attention to NY state politics, but everyone can enter City & State NY's 2023 state budget pool. Just guess the exact date and time that the New York state Legislature will finally pass its budget – which was technically due last Friday but still isn't done yet. https://www.cityandstateny.com/personality/2023/03/guess-when-new-york-will-have-budget-some-sweet-csny-swag/384701/

@meganox@mas.to @fields@hachyderm.io @markloundy@mastodon.online @digitalbits@universeodon.com Does the permalink show the post from the POV of the instance of the person sharing it or from the POV of the instance of anyone who clicks on it? The former doesn’t necessarily solve the problem. The latter would be incredible but I’m not sure how it would work.

Replying to @thatonecalculator@stop.voring.me
@thatonecalculator@stop.voring.me Well, they are specifically talking about Mastodon instances. They’re not using Pleroma or Misskey or other ActivityPub-based protocols. I know “the fediverse” is often used colloquially to refer to Mastodon instances but that is technically inaccurate. It’s the same way people often say “the internet” when they are technically talking about the World Wide Web.

Replying to @mastodonmigration@mastodon.online
@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online @ev@fosstodon.org Yeah, and it makes total sense. Techmeme (and Mediagazer) want to include prominent people’s takes on major news stories along with links to the stories themselves. In the past, those takes mostly happened on Twitter. Now they happen on both Twitter and Mastodon.

Replying to @eatonphil@hachyderm.io
@eatonphil@hachyderm.io @shanselman@hachyderm.io I think the idea is that you give out the alias instead of your "real" Mastodon username to people, the same way you give out your email alias instead of the gmail account that it forwards to. So you'd tell people "find me on Mastodon at phil@eatonphil.com" and then they'd search Mastodon for that and it would trigger the redirect, showing "eatonphil@hachyderm.io"

The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, CNN and Associated Press have all posted guides to using Mastodon, which in turn have been syndicated by numerous local news outlets. That matters. We're rapidly approaching a situation where the media will refer to things happening "on Mastodon" the way they referred to Twitter in, say, 2013.

@yuhline @mmasnick I don’t think it’s possible to see lists created by other users. It’s only possible to see the lists that you yourself create or import. https://www.reddit.com/r/Mastodon/comments/yniqp3/it_it_possible_to_seefollow_another_mastodon/
