☆ News outlets are collapsing as advertisers flock to social media platforms, with major implications for society
  + stars: | 2024-02-28 | by ( Oliver Darcy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +7 min
New York CNN —Social media companies are soaking up the billions in advertising dollars that once flowed to legacy media companies — a trend that continues to accelerate despite an ever-growing mountain of evidence indicating the Silicon Valley titans govern their ballooning kingdoms with little regard for how their products negatively impact society. Time and time again, companies like Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat and others have been caught allowing harmful content to exist on their platforms. The committee heard testimony from the heads of the largest tech firms on the dangers of child sexual exploitation on social media. To be fair, brands would likely prefer to advertise on the platforms of responsible media actors versus the risky world of social media. But Big Tech offers these brands much more effective targeting, while boasting a larger and younger audience than legacy news organizations.

☆ When Your Workout Stops Working
  + stars: | 2023-09-20 | by ( Connie Chang | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The first weeks of a new exercise routine can be hard — your muscles tremble, your lungs burn, your heart races. But after a month or two, it gets easier: You’re running faster and longer, or lifting weights with more ease. You’ve hit a workout plateau. After just a few training sessions, the brain can become more skilled at telling muscles to move. For example: “The heart gets stronger and better at pumping blood to the muscles,” said Jeff Horowitz, an exercise physiologist at the University of Michigan.

☆ Risk Management at Crypto Firms Is in Focus Following FTX Collapse
  + stars: | 2023-01-09 | by ( Mengqi Sun | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +7 min
Cryptocurrency companies are disclosing more information about their internal controls and risk management following the collapse of FTX, but a level of transparency in the industry that would make many investors feel comfortable remains far off. Jeff Horowitz, BitGo chief compliance officer Photo: Jeff Horowitz“We need better risk management, more guardrails…and we need some of that installed into the crypto industry,” said Jeff Horowitz, chief compliance officer at crypto custodian BitGo. Although most crypto firms aren’t subject to formal federal regulation, many have adopted the enterprise-risk-management programs that U.S. watchdogs require of mainstream financial institutions in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. As the crypto industry matures, these executives said it is important for investors and consumers to check for signs of adequate risk management and compliance measures at crypto firms. Other signs include whether the company engages in outside due diligence, whether assets are segregated and how secure crypto assets passwords are kept.

Varadarajan wrote on Twitter that the email account The Wire uses, a protonmail.com address, had been "hacked via the hacking of a MacBook." Kumar of The Wire deactivated his Twitter account.
