Amid chaos in US science and geopolitical turmoil, Europe wants to position itself as a research haven — but questions about funding and innovation remain go.nature.com/3Ssl3PL

I absolutely can't comprehend the moral turpitude of these people. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

my child was born with an aggressive, life threatening cancer. he would have died if he had been born 10, even 5 years earlier. because of advances in treatment protocols, he's currently curled up in my arms. this is dangerous, murderous bullshit

Krugman “There’s an element of poetic justice..The industry deliberately made itself look menacing as a financial strategy, believing markets would reward..being “edgy.” In so doing however tech made itself highly unpopular..even [when] money all too often buys power” substack.com/@paulkrugman...

Resident butcherbird cheekily tried to steal my breakfast off my plate. I gave him a corner of toast. Very dense sourdough. He's far too full to finish it, but if he leaves, he'll lose it. So he's pathetically standing guard over it, ready to take on all comers in the toast and marmalade wars.

James Webb Space Telescope captures the OMC-2 star-forming region in the Orion constellation, 1,280 light-years away. By using infrared vision to pierce thick gas and dust, astronomers reveal protostars launching energetic jets, detailing how gravity and energy shape stellar birth.

I just did a Very Good Deed, and I feel quite chuffed with myself. Whoever would have guessed that helping someone gives you a huge dose of the warm fuzzies?

The woman who won the lawsuit to protect the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is U.S. Representative Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio). PLEASE give credit where it's due. #BlackExcellence #KennedyCenter

Can I introduce you to a Leaf Sheep…a type of sea slug about the size of a grain of rice. 🙂

Whut story❓ This exposé of Thales-owned Australian Munitions that manufactures explosives for Israel in Victorian factories, transports it under cover of night in unmarked vehicles, ships it from 🇦🇺 ports, & obscures it's origins & final destination by trading it via arms dealing ops in Singapore⁉️

Please listen to this. We have to stand with Black women and fight this garbage. This is disturbing and, let's face it, White people, too many of us are happy with this.

‘…and the piano, sounds like a carnival/ and the microphone smells like my feet/ and they sit at the bar and put bugs in my jar/and say, ‘man, that’s what I heard you guys eat’

We're skewing entire economies for this shit ...

Employers spend almost $1.7 billion a year hiring union-busting consultants and law firms to stop their workers from organizing for better wages and working conditions. Imagine if they spent that money on their workers instead?

In any other administration I’d say this looks like a security nightmare, but as enemies of the US already have half of the people in this building on salary, I suppose it’s less of an issue…

This really hurts my heart 💔 Never any honor or thanks to the real military heroes who are putting their lives on the line everyday. This truly is the most corrupt, dishonorable, trashy White House ever seen in my lifetime. We The People must persevere and restore true honor once again 😥

Eyes wide shut

🏆 Alex Fein via Redbridge. @auspoldaily.bsky.social #Auspol is just one of many being subjected to an intense propaganda project for the new robber barons to hold all the power. It’s strategic, massively funded and One Nation is the 🇦🇺 vehicle. Read this. redbridgeintel.substack.com/p/call-it-wh...

Raf Epstein just said the quiet part out loud - the media is cheering One Nation on. There you go. Fuck the media in this country. #auspol #Insiders

A sentence that is both enormously cool and also kinda terrifying: "Octopuses Learn to Use Mirrors."

Every time he leaves the White House, every place this treasonous asshole goes....start booing. That should be the tipping point.

In the West Bank, Palestinians are being cut off from water sources, from their orchards, from their vineyards. It’s unjust, and I’m pressing for the U.S. to act.

Happy PRIDE month! Here are just a few queer scientists who have changed history: Alan Turing, Modern computing Sally Ride, Space exploration Nergis Mavalvala, Gravitational waves Ben Barres, Neuroscience Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, Cosmology Lynn Conway, Microchips & computing

We celebrate another milestone today. Twenty years ago, in 2006, the FDA approved the Gardasil vaccine against Human Papilloma Virus. Real world data from Scotland, Netherlands & Denmark show that the HPV vaccine significantly reduces cervical cancer significantly. 🧪 www.gavi.org/vaccineswork...

I love when people express themselves like this.

That moment when a business is trying to fuck you over, and it's something you can report to a government agency. And a friend you've known for 20 years was appointed CEO of that agency last year ...

Having a new kitchen put in. Major delays. Guy's been an uncommunicative, condescending twat throughout. Demanded full payment before it was done. Cabinets arrived today. Not even CLOSE to the sage green I ordered. It's pastel babyshit brown. Among other egregious cockups. Hi, small claims court!

Anthropic and OpenAI are dangerous and unsustainable companies that shouldn’t be taken public. The AI bubble is a con and retail investors are the marks. AI doesn’t have ROI, it’s nothing like AWS or Uber, and it’s got no post-bubble recovery story. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbKD...

Just saw a new GP. Told her my mental health isn't just in the toilet but is the bit of paper that didn't go down on the first flush. Added casually 'Also, I'm autistic AF'. She replied 'I noticed'. I'd been masking like mad. Then she says 'I'm pretty sure you have ADHD too'. DAFUQ?

I'm fairly sure those subs we were getting from France would have been new.

LLMs are «really good at doing an impression of work, much like most managers and c-suite executives, and even if it’s completely incapable of doing something, it’ll absolutely say it can and tell you you’re amazing for suggesting it. And that’s why Business Idiots love it.» @edzitron.com

Currently reading a book on money laundering, and I don't think I've ever WhatTheFucked and JesusFuckingChristed so loudly or frequently ever before. It's 'Everybody Loves Our Dollars' by @oliverbullough.bsky.social and it's a mind-boggling page-turner.

This is absolutely a result of a passive Australian media and an abhorrent right wing in our political class. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly. www.businessinsider.com/uber-coo-and...

Over 50 years later, this anti-Vietnam War PSA still rings true.

Texas, you have a choice to make on Tuesday. Do the right thing and rid your government of Ken Paxton for good!

Webb just clocked nearly 9,000 young star clusters and found the biggest ones break from their birth clouds in 5 million years, a timing clue that could reshape how astronomers model galaxies growing up https://www.europesays.com/uk/981032/ The James Webb Space Telescope has given astronomers a …

Absolutely stand corrected on my last post: that ON supporters are "hard working stupidos". Sue Barrett's article is a far more intelligent take than my "stupid" assessment of ON followers. And, Pauline isn't as 'dumb' as we think her to be. Highly worth reading. The advice in it might save us.

dude i’ve been in tech for decades. i know scores of developers and engineers. they are the opposite of “thrilled.” none of us are “luddites.” your smug attitude about AI squares with the industry as a whole though so points for staying on-brand.

Tech Policy Press fellow Petra Molnar highlights the AI Resist List: a global database documenting acts of resistance to the AI industry. From legal challenges and worker organizing to artistic interventions, the project seeks to challenge the “scale at all costs” development of AI.
