Holy fuck, am I reading this correctly? Are they going to do a single-blind RCT (i.e., some babies will get placebo instead of HepB vax and their parents won't know)??? This seems insanely unethical, like Tuskegee levels of unethical public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-23245.pdf

This is your periodic reminder to submit machine learning research to @tmlrorg.bsky.social. I’ve been both a reviewer and an author for the journal, and it feels good on both sides! High paper quality, and productive review discussions, why would I ever roll the conference dice again?

The White House wants the public to think it’s “righting the ship” at the Pentagon by changing the staff around "Leaky Pete" Hegseth. But one of those promoted is Sean Parnell, who dropped his Senate bid in Pennsylvania over allegations he choked his ex-wife and told her to get an abortion. 1/2 🧵

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.
The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.
