Frequently curmudgeonly and proud of it. Somehow I went from being a scientist to the “dad/designated asshole/adult in the room” for a whole bunch of people at a startup. “Why is that duck in the ceiling?” -every scientist everywhere

A reminder that as you see photos of those Patriot Front douchebags today, they are marching on a holiday because none of them have anywhere else to be. None of them have friends or family who want them around on a holiday. No one is missing them today. They're already with their only friends.

A thing that has been true for well over a decade (maybe two) and still doesn't make its way into the head of the typical "Blue" State Enjoyer is that cities in the American South have socio-political geographies that look ~identical to urban areas in the rest of the country.

“in plain language: believing what the current leaders of the federal medical and public health agencies tell you can get you killed. And given the bubble in which the right wing view of formal expertise thrives, it will be very hard to persuade people thus misled and deluded of the peril they face”

Becky Halioua, who was investigated after attending a vigil for Pretti shortly after his death, feels the VA probe is a “scare tactic” and an attempt to silence those “with the loudest voices.”

Hi! I'm a farmer! This NYT article is sweet, saccharine bullshit. Farmers knew Trump was going to hurt our business. Because he already did a trade war in his 1st term. I even did a video on why so many farmers support Trump, WHILE knowing he'd hurt our farms.

How AI as SAAS could fail. I hope it does. I deal g with execs that try to extract technical chemical ideas from AI and waste everyone’s time explaining one word to them, “No”. It’d be nice if they understood the science behind it, but that’s a different critique of MBA culture.
