  In the 1980s, as HIV/AIDS ravaged queer communities and communities of color in the United States and beyond, a straight white teenager named Ryan White emerged as the face of the epidemic. Diagnosed with hemophilia at birth, Ryan contracted HIV through contaminated blood products. In 1985, he became a household name after he was barred from attending his Indiana middle school. As Ryan appeared on nightly news broadcasts and graced the covers of popular magazines, he was embraced by music icons and well-known athletes, achieving a curious kind of stardom. Analyzing his struggle and celebrity, Paul M. Renfro's powerful biography grapples with the contested meanings of Ryan's life, death, and afterlives. 
   
   
   
  As Renfro argues, Ryan's fight to attend school forced the American public to reckon with prevailing misconceptions about the AIDS epidemic. Yet his story also reinforced the hierarchies at the heart of the AIDS crisis. Because the "innocent" Ryan had contracted HIV "through no fault of his own," as many put it, his story was sometimes used to blame presumably "guilty" populations for spreading the virus. Reexamining Ryan's story through this lens, Renfro reveals how the consequences of this stigma continue to pervade policy and cultural understandings of HIV/AIDS today.

  Machine Learning System Design...

  Designing and building machine learning (ML) systems can seem daunting for beginners, but understanding the foundational steps and principles can simplify the process. At its core, ML system design involves a series of well-defined steps that guide the transformation of raw data into valuable insights through predictive models. Here’s a beginner’s guide to understanding and implementing these steps effectively. 
  The first step in designing an ML system is problem definition. Clearly defining the problem you aim to solve is crucial. This involves understanding the business context, identifying the goals, and determining the type of problem—whether it is classification, regression, clustering, or another ML task. A well-defined problem ensures that the subsequent steps are aligned with the desired outcomes. 
  Once the problem is defined, the next step is data collection and preprocessing. Data is the backbone of any ML system, and its quality significantly impacts the performance of the models. Collect data from various sources and ensure it is relevant to the problem. Data preprocessing involves cleaning the data to handle missing values, removing duplicates, and normalizing the data. It also includes feature engineering, which involves selecting, modifying, or creating new features that enhance the predictive power of the model. 
  Finally, the deployment and monitoring phase ensures that the ML model is operational and continues to perform well over time. Deploy the model to a production environment where it can make real-time predictions or be used in batch processing. Implement monitoring systems to track the model’s performance and detect any drift in data distribution that might require retraining the model. Regularly update the model with new data to maintain its accuracy and relevance.
