Making deadlines "Anywhere on Earth" is like a time/geography puzzle before you submit.

M.2 SSD died today. Not a problem for data loss, but setting up stuff is a headache. 🤯

This is a BIG deal. They’re preventing Harvard from enrolling international students. Any university could be next

Trump Administration Halts Harvard’s Ability to Enroll International Students By Michael S. Schmidt and Michael C. Bender (New York Times) -- The move was a major escalation in the administration’s efforts to pressure the college to fall in line with President Trump’s demands. The Trump administration on Thursday halted Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students, a major escalation in the administration’s efforts to pressure the college to fall in line with the president’s agenda. The administration notified Harvard about the decision after a back-and-forth in recent days over the legality of a sprawling records request as part of the Department of Homeland Security’s investigation, according to three people with knowledge of the negotiations. “I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification is revoked,” according to a letter sent to the university by Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary. A copy of the letter was obtained by The New York Times. Spokesmen for the Department of Homeland Security and Harvard did not immediately respond to requests for comment. This is a developing story. Check back for updates. Click Here to see the story as it appeared on the New York Times website. Copyright 2025 The New York Times Company -0- May/22/2025 17:42 GMT

Why is it a "sensitive issue" when people are laid off? Because the alternative is that I email them and get no response for a while until their account gets deleted. Everyone is going to find out, eventually.

I am utterly baffled by the highlighted part, which isn't even a quote from the Supreme Court's order. What are they doing?!
Defendants’ Response to Interrogatory No. 1: Defendants object to Interrogatory No. 1 as based on the false premise that the United States can or has been ordered to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador. See Abrego Garcia, 604 U.S.—, slip op. at 2 (holding Defendants should “take all available steps to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia to the United State”) (emphasis added). Defendants further object to Interrogatory No. 1 as calling for information that is protected by the attorney-client privilege, the deliberative process privilege, the state secrets privilege, and the governmental privilege. Defendants incorporate their objections to definitions and objections to instructions.

The hilarious thing about ordering items from AliExpress is that your package is delivered by someone speeding down the street in a rusty Corolla. Not even OnTrac.

TIL you can buy random silicon wafers on AliExpress for $15-$40. @johndmcmaster.bsky.social

I owe an apology to all James Bond movies. I mocked them for having completely unrealistic, cartoonish villains that simply weren't believable.

2025 has made it impossible to levy that criticism anymore.

It's amazing that I don't know the hotkey to view a web page's source code in Google Chrome, because I accidentally press it about 5x a day.

I really enjoy coding, but I go through phases where I cannot due to other professor commitments. I know it's not all greener on the other side in industry, but it is tempting...

🚀 WOSET Needs New Leadership!

After four successful years running the Workshop on Open Source EDA Technologies (WOSET), it’s time for new leadership to take the helm. I can no longer serve as the primary organizer but am happy to advise during the transition.

My weather station died. Does anyone have a recommendation? Open protocols are a high priority. AQI would be nice, but not necessary.
