Don’t apply to grad school as a robot, people. Your goal is to stand out, and gen-AI makes you look generic.

As Arizona groundwater disappears, an agricultural giant agrees to use less Agriculture has been free to use Arizona's groundwater, but as water levels drop, the state may have hit a turning point.

Update: One of Arizona’s largest farming businesses has agreed to leave some croplands dry and pay $11 million to help residents whose wells have gone dry. @azagmayes.bsky.social says the legal settlement came after a year of β€˜hard-fought’ negotiations. www.latimes.com/environment/...
