To contrast: programs to meet people's basic needs (kids in particular) are barreling towards insolvency. These programs pay for themselves by keeping people productive by helping their basic needs. And they're trashing the White House to build a tacky ballroom.

You just have his word for that, though. Also, who cares if it were? Clearly, "Life Extension" & its "doctors" have a grift going on.

#QEDscience has been great! We’ve used it for a few manuscripts and it helped us really improve them before submission. Definitely recommend!

It’s clear we need alternatives or at least ways to improve the situation. So, together with a really special and talented team we worked to develop this idea into “qed” a platform where you can get CONSTRUCTIVE feedback on your own work or CRITICALLY assess other people’s papers.

My doomscroll morning has been about how we collectively exploded the Paris accord on capping climate change, how AI investments are a cargo cult (though ML can generate great testable hypotheses for gene regulation) & other anthropogenic entropies. How's your day?

I love this. Portland (anyone really) download a free book about how to be silly & protest at the same time. I can't believe this wasn't written by someone from PDX. Make Portland proud! Remember what Rose says: That's how we're going to win. Not by fighting what we hate, but by saving what we love.

The movie’s strength is the way it centers the way the characters plot and strategize to subvert the Nazis. They use the tactics at their disposal: obfuscation and trickery (it's a theater troupe after all, this is what they do on stage every night!)

On HBO, “The Regime” was only interested in a nihilistic satire of Winslet’s fascist anti-hero. It’s a myopic narrative device that fails to meet the moment because it boils down to: We’re cooked. “To Be or Not To Be” tells a different story, of ingenuity and what it looks like to fight back, even if you are not typically in a position of influence or authority. Bravery is more than the machismo certain narratives would have you believe.

extremely disturbing read. during this ceasefire, Hamas has launched an incredibly violent campaign against Palestinians it views as traitors or insufficiently loyal, including a series of public executions independently verified by journalists. no way in hell they are going to disarm next year.

Firefights and public executions have spread fear and raised concerns about a spiral of internecine violence. “I could hear gunfire all around.”

I'm reposting this article written by Anne Applebaum for "The Atlantic".
If you aren't familiar w/the 2025 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, Maria Corina Machado....this excellent piece gives context and provides the backdrop for her deserving award.
It also warns us what's to come if Trump prevails

As political theorists like Russell Hardin have explained, power is a “coordination game,” in which everything depends on what the public believes and does together.

Pretty funny story about Dr. Fred Ramsdell and his shared #Nobel, as we read it after a day cut off from the outside world in the selfsame Yellowstone National Park. We recognize the fresh snow and aspens in the NYT profile photo. Congratulations to all the winners, well-deserved subject!

When we hear about a lone scientist who made groundbreaking discoveries on their own, it’s usually erasing the truth that science is a team sport, and field research builds on the local knowledge and expertise of the people that live there (8/10)

Favorite bit because it rings true: "Maybe we've been watching modern versions of duels and public executions, only now these modern versions also make the worst people we know richer and richer."
