I was a transfer student taking intro CS, zero Linux knowledge and almost as little coding. Classmate talked me into an interest lunch for student projects. Ended up doing 10h/wk of software, support, and system administration through college.

Since arriving in Congress — as the first Black Congressman ever elected in Colorado history — I’ve worked to deliver real results.

Last year, I had 8 pieces of legislation signed into law — the second most in the entire House!

Grateful for opportunity to serve. We’re just getting started!

I'm a bit under the weather today so can't necessarily say I wish I was at SC25, but it does look like a good time in HPC-world.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Best glory I’ve ever seen from a plane! It’s an optical phenomenon that occurs when light interacts in and around tiny droplets of water in the clouds, in the direction opposite the sun. More complex than a rainbow. Here’s a link to some more info: www.zmescience.com/science/phys... #optics #physics

And that's a wrap! Re-finishing is done and I added hairpin legs. The surface is still not as smooth as I'd like, but overall I'm quite happy with where I got with this table.

Fascinating and important.
the Federal Employees & Contractors Oral History Project (FECOHP) was launched in 3/2025 by the Organization of American Historians (OAH). Directed by an experienced oral historian & former federal historian, the project seeks to capture this pivotal moment through the voices of those who lived it.

For the eleventy billionth time:

Attacks on science funding and science jobs in the United States don’t mean that science will just move elsewhere.

It means a lot less science for everyone.

There aren’t enough jobs or funding everywhere else )combined) for US scientists to just move.
Some are embracing the fantasy that the cuts to #NIH funding will only have an impact here in the USA. As Nature reports, the NIH is the largest global funder by far and dwarfs the rest of the world’s funders of biomedical research.

What an amazing person. I can't stand pranks 99-44/100% of the time, but this is really good.
With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.
