A FLAS fellowship is what brought me to Indiana University and set me up for my two masters' degrees (and much later PhD), informed my career interests, made me a published translator of Polish, participant in research exchange with amazing faculty at University of Warsaw, 2-decade+ friendships...
We're sending out cancellation of FLAS (Foreign Language & Area Studies) fellowships to dozens of students today, bc Trump has illegally refused to disburse year 4 of our DoE grants. Congrats to everyone in the GOP who is laser-focused on 🇺🇸 national security & the threat of rising 🇨🇳 to 🇺🇸 hegemony.
Yes, we’re literally about to zero out funding for every Title VI area studies center at every university in the country, along with FLAS fellowship funding. A generation of human capital that feeds into our diplomatic & intelligence corps that will simply not exist. National security madness.

Just one example of the impacts of federal stop-work orders, life-saving research cannot move forward.
Stop-work order issued to life-saving heart valve research at Cornell University
"I think it's my lifelong mission. I have literally been working in this field since 1985, and for the past 30 of these years, I have been developing miniature blood pumps."

At work, lining up all the stuff I need to do, thinking of when I will return home to continue @sgj.bsky.social's The Buffalo Hunter Hunter and have my wig completely and utterly flipped by it.

One job of the scientist in our times is to speak the truth with a collective voice based on evidence. That's why I'm proud to join over 140 leading researchers to affirm the scientific consensus that bias in AI is a real problem that needs to be prioritized.

The first mission in the Roadcraft demo is with a timber harvester and a logging crane, maybe oversuccessful in sealing the deal. I probably would have been in if you had given me a simple bulldozer or bucketloader.
