When will the media develop object permanence
Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.
It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.
NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.
ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are
ICE has used Mobile Fortify to identify immigrants and citizens alike over 100,000 times, by one estimate. It wasn't built to work like that—and only got approved after DHS abandoned its own privacy r...

It would be vile and invasive even if it were, which is what a lot of us have been yelling about for decades.

We live in a time when the government loosens nuclear safety regulations while cracking down hard on use of artificial dyes in food.
The Trump administration has secretly rewritten nuclear safety rules
The rewrite was done to speed up the construction of a new generation of nuclear reactors. Critics warn it could compromise safety and public trust.

It makes me feel some kind of way to hear people get warned not to protest in violence so they don’t invite ICE to escalate AFTER an unarmed woman got executed as she was trying to leave.

Towards the end of this article we learn that the US extended a deal similar to Operation Paperclip to leaders of Unit 731:
immunity in exchange for data obtained from war crimes performed on Chinese civilians.

The release of WWII-era military documents this year has given a boost to researchers digging into Japan's germ warfare program. Japan's government has never apologized for the atrocities.

We're cooked.
Meanwhile, DOJ lawyers are threatening medical journals for not providing adequate "viewpoint diversity" and for misinforming their readership, which I suppose means not publishing enough of the stupid shit that RFK Jr., JB, etc. keep saying.
This is an outrageous First Amendment violation.

17. One might know all of this if one studied the ways that misinformation spreads and how the norms and institutions of science limit that spread so effectively. It's something I've worked on for years.
Sadly, as of today, this sort of work not longer "effectuates NSF's priorities."
I wonder why.

16. Between the decentralization and the incentives for researchers to upend the status quo, the sorts of conspiratorial fantasies that persist in the anti-science right are simply impossible. No one has the power to say "Hey, I want to you suppress this result" and have that stick across science.
