Evaluating grant proposals in the AI age has turned a tedious service task into a truly soul sucking experience. Grant givers should require proposals to focus on scientific substance with little formal guidance and let someone else deal with the BS. The system was always broken, now it's dead.

A week before the invasion, my friend asked me:
- I don't believe there will be an invasion, but I have a question: maybe that's because I have my own house, car, and business, and I can't believe it could all end in one day? You don't have any of this - how do you assess the situation?".

Dear colleagues, positions at CNRS (and INRIA) will (in all probability) be announced this winter. By then it will however be too late to properly prepare an application. Recent PhDs, postdocs etc interested in such positions should get right now in contact with teams who would like to recruit them.

so if I understand it correctly, the Trump administration insists that the Iranian nuclear program has been completely destroyed, while also being worried that said nuclear program is no longer being effectively monitored?
The formal notification to the United Nations sets into motion a nearly unstoppable train that will end with the return, in a little over a month, of a half-dozen prior U.N. sanctions on Iran.
European Countries Trigger the ‘Snapback’ of Iran Sanctions
France, Germany, and the U.K. ran out of patience with Tehran and are bringing back previously halted U.N. measures.
