Today I am once again making loads of new Bluesky friends by insisting on one of my most sincerely held beliefs that makes way too many people fucking furious: that teenagers are autonomous beings who are not their parents' property and who possess independent volition and interiority

Scientific publishing in even more trouble than I thought if this many papers based on just an absurdly unethical and obviously useless dataset were published, just wild
Springer Nature retracts, removes nearly 40 publications
The dataset contains images of children’s faces downloaded from websites about autism, which sparked concerns at Springer Nature about consent and reliability.

You're on a path in the woods. At the end of that path is a podcast. In that podcast is Emmi and Annie talking about AMVs. We're back on schedule tomorrow with a Halloween episode about Slay the Princess!

“Ending a $5 million research study when it is 80% complete does not save $1 million,” it says, “it wastes $4 million.”
Over the weekend, I interviewed one of the NIH employees who signed this letter (someone other than those quoted in this AP story). We talked about what they're doing and the importance of standing up. It was a moving conversation about risk and responsibility. Stay tuned for my piece on NIH and LA.
NIH scientists publish declaration criticizing Trump's deep cuts in public health research
Scores of National Institutes of Health researchers and staffers have come forward to send their Trump-appointed leader a letter challenging policies they say undermine the NIH mission.

Had such a blast chatting with Robin and Annie! Check out our episode where we talk about a bevy of games
one of the best parts of having a podcast is if there's another show you really like, you can just ask the hosts to come chat for a while! I had a great time talking to @stellarine.bsky.social and @not-emmy.bsky.social this week, and you should check out @eati.games!
This week, the hosts of the wonderful Emmi & Annie Talk Indie (bsky.app/profile/eati...) join Robin to talk about immortal dogs, Build-A-Bear, whale fall, secret twins, and who deserves to get thrown out of a window. Yes, this is still a show about video games.

Doomer academic haters like to emphasize that AI promotes plagiarism, inhibits critical thinking, worsens pay and conditions for writers and artists and has massive environmental costs, but it's also great for orchestrating large scale state repression. So really the glass is half full. Of spiders.
A warning to all AI researchers: "The data analytic tools now being used to scour [students'] social media were enhanced during the Biden administration...But to use them to search social media of nonviolent students, the official said, is different from what the previous administration intended."

What we refer to as 'selecting on the dependent variable'. It directly contradicts the requirement for 'rigor' in the scientific approach for NIH grant funding.

Yes, I stand by my statement that I would love to be in a toxic relationship with the bourgeois kitty. No, I will not apologize.
This week on Emmi & Annie Talk Indie, we play Aviary Attorney by @sketchylogic.bsky.social, and learn that Emmi knows nothing about Les Mis. Meanwhile, Annie's memories of AP Euro come in handy. Skip to the last 20 minutes or so for our smash-or-pass ratings of the characters:
