The NSF slashing funding of basic research by 20-30% after fully winding down its social, behavioral and economic sciences unit. Now uses arcane provision to hand public science funding directly to venture capital funds working on AI. I don't think European science is prepared. At all.

Holy sh.. The cover of Germany‘s very pro-business Manager Magazin about Minister Reiche‘s irresponsible decision to double down on gas power plants. Illustrates once more that old journalistic frames of there being such a monolithic thing as ‚the business community‘ are outdated.

Utter drivel. Nuclear power is not clean. Maybe send a reporter to a uranium mine? Also, accidents are normal (Perrow). To wit: Industry: chances of core damage = 1 in 50,000 reactor-yrs of operation, we’re so safe! History: TMI + Chernobyl + Fukushima = 5 meltdowns in 100 reactor-yrs, so NO

"Estrangement of Meaning in a Wealth of Information" @sociologica.bsky.social doi.org/10.6092/issn...
Fabian Muniesa (2024). “Estrangement of meaning in a wealth of information”, Sociologica, 19(1), 185-193.

The expression offered by the editors as a prompt for thought (“observing technologies of observation”) is twisted here, briefly and provocatively, in a kind of radical way, intensifying both its informational (cybernetic) connotation and the intuition of a spiraling (psychotic) twirl. Reminiscences of “Von Foerster’s conjecture” (a theory of alienation in second-order observation once formulated by Jean-Pierre Dupuy) are used in order to interrogate the depletion of signification in a society that is now conceived of as a computational product. The problem of aesthetics, the essay concludes, becomes then crucial.
