Friday SCOOP: DOGE is now at the Department of Veterans Affairs, where a DOGE operative appears to be trying to use an AI tool to write code for the agency's systems, among other proposals. If you're a gov/tech worker and want to talk, I'm on Signal at vittoria89.82

💡Curious about intrinsically disordered regions in your proteins? Jalview's got answers - FOUR of them, infact!

Many disease-associated proteins, including those involved in neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's and Parkinson's) and cancer, contain IDRs.

“Virtually no one thinks that we are making the best use of scientists’ time.”

DOGE, however, isn’t fixing that—it’s cancelling grants, firing scientists, and causing chaos. If efficiency were the goal, we wouldn’t be here, argues @stuartbuck.bsky.social.

This is unconscionable! Subjecting eminent scientists to this uncertainty is crazy!!!

How can DOGE with their ‘coding errors’ be in charge of the US economy?! I hope each of these actions will be the subject of a punitive lawsuit collectively and individually

Add: the mass extinction of species, including key species, which could lead to extinction of the human species.

No amount of survivalist training will make up for lack of resources. No billions of dollars can rewild a key species if it has no habitat. We can adapt, but we have our limits.

Most people think that the ClimateCrisis is about the world getting hotter. Here’s what it’s really about:

Global Famine
Never-ending Economic Depression
Mass Death from heat, natural disasters
Mass Death from global war
