Interesting article. You too can ask your favourite chatbot (they used ChatGPT, I tried Copilot) for a photorealistic image of a doctor specifically NHS vs UK vs US and say the specialty. Sit back and watch the gender and ethnicity biases of current AI come spewing out. www.bmj.com/content/391/...

If Network NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night Shows, are almost 100% Accurate about a Pathological Liar and Convicted Felon who Incited an Insurrection, tried to Steal a Fair Election and is Covering up Sex Crimes against Children, shouldn't his Disgraceful Presidency be terminated? I say, YES!

Stolen from the Internet, a sign that says "If Elevator does not move do a small jump it should move after", and a dirty-white freight elevator wall and aged elevator controls with only floors 1 and 2."

I have no idea where this really is, I just stole it off Wikimedia.

Welcome to our everyday hell, fund managers.
An article from The Independent under the section "News > World > Americas > US politics" with the headline: "Fund managers quietly fear Trump doesn’t have a tariff plan and that he ‘might be insane’." The subheading reads: "Some fund managers concerned ‘that the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideology’." The article is authored by Gustaf Kilander in Washington D.C., published on Thursday, 10 April 2025 at 16:31 BST.

One of the biggest, most common problems in research is missing or incomplete data -- EVEN in RCTs! Learning to spot problematic incomplete data is a critical skill for anyone wanting to read or do research. What is incomplete data? What red flags should you look for? And what about green flags? 👇

What you don't know, CAN hurt you!

🚨🚨 EU is preparing a proper assault to #Trumptariffs which could amount to €400bn as retaliation to US tariffs on 25% on steel and aluminium, last Wednesday's "reciprocal" tariffs of 20% on most EU exports, and the 25% tariffs on European car and autoparts exports. 🧵 www.rte.ie/news/politic...

EU response to Trump tariffs could amount to €400bn
The total European Union response to US President Donald Trump's tariffs could amount to duties on US goods worth €400 billion, RTÉ News understands.

It is maddening how stingy and bureaucratic societies and academic institutions are. Many expect me to work for free, only offer economy flight tickets, and have me fill out forms for hours. It is almost as if they do not value science integrity. I am very thankful to my Patreon supporters!

Very inappropriate reaction from an EU country's head of state. This is trying to pretend the process was politically motivated and the justice system in France is biased. It is the typical thinking of what extreme right populists would do themselves. But Orbán is very wrong. 1/5
