"sci-fi version of what he was doing at Neuralink." Everything Elon has claimed about Neuralink is sci-fi. The fact that he used intimidation to get a cameo to market his Neuralink is just f*cked up. I don't think anyone should trust Elon with the technology. #neuroskyence

Donald Trump wasn’t making much from foreign deals. Then he regained power—and set aside the pretense that he cared about ethics.

#neuroskyence folks: as my postdoc grant is running out soon, I am looking for new opportunities in systems neuroscience! Keywords: patch clamp ephys, opto, mouse behavior, (in vivo) voltage imaging. Would love to return to the Basal Ganglia. Sharing appreciated, and happy #FluorescenceFriday !

I had someone tell me today his lab "is trying to use ChatGPT to design and implement experiments". They literally are asking it "to come up with experiments, write a protocol and communicate with other machines to implement it". I am in hell. We are in hell.

Congratulations Australia! The people have crushed the fascists. The Labor party’s PM Anthony Albanese has secured a second term in office in an election wipeout. The push back against the Trump / Putin aligned global regressive movement continues strong.

God, that was hard to bear. Students told a physics town hall that grad schools have rescinded admission. NSF proposals are censored for words like “bias,” even when the meaning is technical. Physics curricula are being banned by school districts for encouraging girls. #APSGlobalSummit2025 #APSMarch

The @principlesfirst.bsky.social conference was just evacuated due to a bomb threat. This is after Enrique Tarrio and members of the Proud Boys showed up and tried to disrupt the conference yesterday.

Five things I did last week #1

A new website created by about a dozen federal employees, called “We the Builders,” aims to be a secure outlet for government workers to share stories about how their workplaces are being impacted by DOGE, and a place to explain the real-world impact of its access to government tech systems.

What's the bluesky equivalent of a "tweet" and "tweeted"? "blueski" and "blueskied"? "sky" and "skyed"? Or do we keep "tweet" and "tweeted" as homage to the OG Twitter?

A year ago,Putin killed Navalny in prison.This didn't push the Russian opposition into uniting&fighting Ukraine is the one who continues fighting Putin,paying the price with lives of Ukrainians Unite around Ukraine.Support our Defense Forces. This is where the battle for the future is taking place

As a political scientist who studies countries that managed to stop the slide into authoritarianism, I can assure you that ***refraining from provoking the authoritarian*** is not how it works. Without further ado, I will now go tear out another chunk of hair.

Just based on the abstract I like this, reading it now and adding it to my noheroes list (sootyempiric.blogspot.com/p/no-heroes-...). philpapers.org/rec/SVOWTG?r...

What a united Europe does next will determine future of not only Ukraine but the whole of the continent, and then the whole world. 2025 is going to be about what actions democracies (don’t) take, not what some others say. Actions speak louder than words. Europe it’s your move. Make it a good one.

PhD opening in the UK: cognitive, computational, and sociocultural basis of pro-environmental decision-making www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/cen...

Evidence is what powerful people say it is. Brace for a very rough ride over the next few years.

Important to know, but relevant only in the reality-based community.

"Vice President JD Vance and Elon Musk have challenged decades-long approaches to political extremism that were designed to prevent another Hitler."

If anyone knows a potential PhD student, I can highly recommend this PI and the Icelandic Vision Lab-- it is such a great environment! And, I know this because I'm basically an honorary member of the Lab-- haha!

Clearly, JD Vance learned so much from his trip to Dachau the day before.

Just a reminder that Germany was the center of scientific progress until the Nazis suppressed, drove away, or killed all the non-Nazi scientists.

“The loss of Democracy is not an event, it’s a process”. Ewan Mawarire explains how people in a dictatorship are secretly looking for other people to dissent. He shares his story about how he stood up to a dictator and started a revolution in Zimbabwe. www.powerofusnewsletter.com/p/how-to-cha...
