You should have listened to me about galaxy growth and structure formation. But now, there are way more important things to worry about.

Something ironic about the prison colony that thought it needed to break away from a system that denied colonists representation going about as if there wasn't a whole war about this.

Truly incredible that this is how the media is choosing to eulogize the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in US history, who was a serial sexual abuser of children. For all the talk about "deep state" plots to abuse children, no one even remembers this case.
From CBS News: "Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, who represented Illinois for two decades in Congress and was later jailed for violating banking laws, has died."

Are you a postdoc or new faculty member who would benefit from an invited talk? My department is looking to bring someone for spring. Due to budgetary reasons, you must be either: 1. In driving distance to Orono, ME OR 2. Working on alpine or Arctic plants

A UK research funder used LLMs to screen and desk-reject grant proposals with no human input, then (and this is the unique part) told rejected authors about it. I assume federal appointees in US research agencies are doing the same, though without the "tell people about it" bit.

Remember when us phil-tech types said effective altruism was just utilitarianism taken to its worst possible extents? This is what we meant: Real harm for unquantifiable potential benefit. "…'we believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology….'"

Because it's buried at the bottom of the article and CNN is presenting it in a misleading way: before people worry, the "unknown" part is how the worker was exposed, the pathogen is good old fashioned Y. pestis which we understand extremely well and can treat just fine if caught early

Like either they chose not to treat the person for some reason, or they couldn’t treat them effectively- and I stress that the plague is caused by a bacteria that historically is treated very effectively with first line antibiotics- and either of those are interesting. For different reasons

People are reacting to Gellar getting caught and admitting to it as if that is accountability. No. Accountability is he gives up power, takes risks to be an ally, uses his power in service of survivors rather than himself.

Man accused in Cornell rape case allegedly asked sorority member not to "say anything that she thinks might've happened," Title IX investigation transcript says
According to the record, a student who had been at the Chi Phi house the night of the alleged assault told a Title IX investigator she got a call the next day from one of the accused men.

Okay, George Lucas remains a schmuck but his wife is pure class. She made him make the museum souvenirs and food cheap so that schoolchildren without much money can still have a good day, because she says she remembers how bad it felt to go on expensive field trips. It DOES.
