Academic bad actors often jump to a new job mid-investigation to hide misconduct, or sign non-disclosure pacts. A new proposal suggests a national database, like the one for doctors, to track academic fraud. With the kind of data fraud AI is going to unlock, it might not be a bad idea.

A few have suggested that some aspects of this mission--joy, international teamwork, diversity--are being played up to stick it to the hateful attitude of the administration. But I don't think it's that. I think it's just that those things are essential to and inseparable from a mission like this.

The founders believed that if a madman became president, members of Congress would serve the countryโs interest and remove him from office. That seemed a reliable system to safeguard the republic. Boy, did they screw up.

On top of wasting your taxpayer money on whatever this is, he is hiding the truth of the Epstein files and protecting the powerful instead of seeking justice for the victims. What an embarrassment of an FBI Director.

There is no manner in which ICE agents now present themselves, no language they will direct at citizens or immigrants, no abuse or brutality they undertake, and no slaying they will commit that can at this point shock or surprise me. These thugs are not law enforcement. They are S.A. brownshirts.

They are building this massive new data science and AI institute (that will house 100 faculty) next door to the department that studies climate change (which, checks notes, has 15ish faculty) in a building that is non-functional most days. Which says just about every fucking thing about 2026.
