Scoop: This afternoon NSF will formally announce its four 'Frontier Initiatives', and a suite of other changes in a public letter. These Frontier Initiatives (left) are identical to OSTP's 'Grand Research Challenges' that we have been reporting on (right). www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I asked students in my networks class today how many packets they think they send/receive over the Internet each day. Most guesses were a few thousand packets per day. When I told them it would be in the order of a million packets, for 1GB of data use each day. Their expressions were priceless 🙂

If the government executing us in the streets isn’t your red line, then you’ve already decided to endorse it. There’s no gray area left. No ambiguity.

Reason the Meta Live AI demo failed.. not because of WiFi.. though related to a networking problem:)

Senate committee on appropriations markup meeting is starting now. They'll be discussing a lot of stuff, but in particular, science agencies like NSF & NASA. Yesterday Sen. Moran indicated funding would be 33.9 billion, preserving FY '24 numbers. www.appropriations.senate.gov/hearings/ful...

I just met Governor Healey @massgovernor.bsky.social at the tech innovation summit in Boston 🤯 And advocated her to create more state level funding for universities in lieu of recent NSF budget cuts.

I read that article.. and tbh I felt that article was a bit fear-mongering. I felt the claim that the career disappearing, as baseless. Note: I am also doing career this time.. I was/am super worried. It may be true, but I don't think there is sufficient evidence for that.

I wanted to just lie on the couch and relax this Saturday morning without doing anything, but ended up being quite philosophical. Spent the whole morning on this and updated my lab page (sinrg.org) 😆

Was out collecting spatial videos on the Apple Vision Pro for research—just roaming around the city. Multiple people yelled at me: “DUDE, YOU'RE CRAZY!” and “DON’T WATCH PORN IN THE STREETS, MY MAN!” Fair enough. I probably looked like I deserved that 😅

I think creating new conferences just spreads energy thin, splits communities, and ultimately creates new silos rather than solving the core problem.

BREAKING: NSF has frozen all grant funding, as of yesterday. It's unclear when they will resume funding awards, or why the pause has been put in place. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
