I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️🌈💖

Now that my ducks are finally in a semblance of a row I am excited to announce that I will begin a PostDoc in the Sin lab (www.simonywsin.com) this January!! I am looking forward to applying my 'omics training to new systems and questions about Earth's incredible biodiversity.

The takeaway? If students are using AI to cheat, it's not because they're lazy or uninterested. It's because we've created a society and an education system where failing academically means falling into precarity, but where students rarely get the support they need to succeed. 6/
