Ruben Gallego on whether Trump is talking to Democrats:
“Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia, so I think there's a he's probably talking to himself, or think he's talking to a Democrat, but I sincerely doubt that that's actually he's actually physically talking to a Democrat.“

Stop offloading cognitive tasks to "generative AI." Stop using systems w/ "AI" features either inextricably woven through them or prominently displayed at the top to nudge you into their use. Stop *Designing* "AI" tools & integrations that way. Stop building or using "AI" like this. Fucking Stop it.

Curious if there is any effort such as this for US universities and colleges?

The U.S. Congress is pushing back on attempts by President Donald Trump’s administration to make drastic cuts in what the government pays universities to support research on their campus. scim.ag/470JU2d
Congressional panels resist White House proposals for sharp cuts in indirect cost rates
Three spending panels say a 15% cap isn’t the right answer to nagging concerns about how universities are reimbursed

It's also a reminder of what the Times can get its powerful hackles up about—a woman using home email at work, a thirty-year old footnote, an 81-year-old man being 81. But not a vividly antisemitic wannabe dictator building a system of concentration camps.
The NYT story about Zohran Mamdani is transparently a favour to the Trump administration, an attempt to prime a distributed witchhunt to uncover any detail of his life - through legal, extralegal, or criminal means - that can be used as a pretext to strip him of his citizenship & deport him

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.
