A favorite quotation from Danny Kahneman: "Nothing in life is as important as you think it is when you are thinking about it." (Except Danny.)
Today we’ve lost a giant and a visionary: Prof. Daniel Kahneman has passed at the age of 90. The Princeton SPIA community shares our condolences with his family and all who knew him, learned from him, and loved him. bit.ly/4cy0arM

Gaza : Displacement misery continues for Gazans, UN humanitarians warn. At least 340 internally displaced people have now been killed while seeking safety in UNRWA shelters with more than 1,100 injured, @UNRWA said. buff.ly/3vJUutP
For 1 month, people across📍#GazaStrip have been denied aid, killed & bombed out of their homes. Daily struggles to find bread & water. Blackouts cut people off from loved ones & the rest of the world. This is forced displacement & humanitarian tragedy of colossal proportions.
Tharushi Karunarathna clinched the gold medal in the women's 800m event with a time of 2:03.20 at the 2023 Asian Games, taking place in China. This is Sri Lanka's first gold medal in Asian Games athletics since 2002.

@JaneenFernando This is a solid day. I have my reservations about New Colonial, but otherwise A+ list. I'd completely forgotten about Sapumal. It used to be one of my favourite art spaces.
Okay 🧵time; this is not news anymore but #RoarMedia as you once knew and loved, is no more. x.com/RoarIsGlobal/s…
With a mix of pride and nostalgia, we are excited to share Roar Media's new chapter. ☀ Transitioning from a media publisher, Roar Media is now exclusively a content production studio, in line with Roar Global's mission to empower businesses to thrive on digital platforms.
And then there was @Sakeena_R. We worked on several projects, especially during COVID. So many unfinished story projects. Our work is not done yet, right Razick? archive.roar.media/english/life/i…
Honestly, this is a bummer. I liked what Roar did as a publication and their presence was a healthy addition to the Sri Lankan media space in general. Wish they would have expanded the journalism arm instead of shuttering it. 2/n
I should know because we've been fighting the same battles at ReadMe, albeit on a smaller scale. Honestly, it's by mere luck and sheer will to keep the platform running that ReadMe is online, something that I'm thankful for each day. 4/n
Sri Lanka's history is a stark reminder of the dangers of weaponizing hate speech. Women & minorities are often disproportionately targeted, exacerbating vulnerabilities, deepening societal divides & discouraging them from participating in public life.

Where better to begin than with JMW Turner's Fighting Temeraire, painted in 1838? A symbolic sunset marking the end of one age and beginning of another. This ship being towed away to be scrapped, the HMS Temeraire, had been involved in the Battle of Trafalgar.
