This is a major, huge, humongous deal that will go largely unnoticed because of the broader chaos engulfing our politics. But, suffice it to say that the government is broken when the courts explicitly say they can't trust the administration to tell the truth.

🚨NEW: A federal judge out of Oregon has issued a sweeping rebuke of the DOJ’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls.

The opinion released Thursday concluded that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warned that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

“First Monday will cease publication, after 30 years…”

Sad news about one of the first open access truly independent interdisciplinary journals out there.

Our petition asking the CSU chancellor to “Cancel ChatGPT Edu. Invest in Humans” is very close to 2,000 signatures—many irate faculty, students, alums.

We‘ll be sending signatures and comments to the administration on *Monday.* Last call, & anyone can sign!

While BlueSky still lacks the absolute protection that Threads offer (where I would need to approve your reply and where I can block you once and forever and any future accounts you create are also blocked, and you could not quote my skeet), still the nuclear blocks are good for these purposes.

Over on Twitter/X I said that economics seminars are the worst (after reading a paper that @johnholbein1.bsky.social shared there about how women economists are interrupted more often and in a more aggressive way), and I did not get the same pushback I would have in earlier years (still got some).

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.
