On July 5, as floodwaters were starting to recede, FEMA received 3,027 calls from disaster survivors and answered 3,018, or roughly 99.7 percent, the documents show. Contractors with four call center companies answered the vast majority of the calls. That evening, however, Ms. Noem did not renew the contracts with the four companies and hundreds of contractors were fired, according to the documents and the person briefed on the matter. The next day, July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls and answered 846, or roughly 35.8 percent, according to the documents. And on Monday, July 7, the agency fielded 16,419 calls and answered 2,613, or around 15.9 percent, the documents show.

“In a new paper published earlier this year in the Journal of Marketing, we uncovered a surprising pattern: The more knowledge people have about AI and how it works, the less likely they are to embrace it.”

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?

That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

My how times change ...
A 1940 newspaper clip from the Springfield Leader and Press, declaring: Superman Poisoning American Children, Irate Nazis cClaim." "Superman Arouses Teutonic Anger" reads the headline in the Amarillo Daily News"

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
Graphs showing 25 years of budgets for the National Institute of Health, NASA, and the NSF. In all cases, the proposed budget for next year is far, far below any year of the previous quarter century.

Our politics has become deeply unserious. Flags and gimmicks and stupid video clips and social media clickbait and lies. With very little serious challenge to counter the nonsense and the dishonesty.
The consequences for our country and our democracy are dire.
www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/robert-jen...
Extract from article: This gamification of reality, in which politicians are actively incentivised to break rules and tell lies, so long as it gets them attention, headlines and viral views, directly leads to the promotion and endurance of the sort of outright charlatans and liars that we have seen so much of in recent years. This world view led directly to the rise of Boris Johnson in the past and it is leading directly to the rise of Nigel Farage now. And while Jenrick may seem like a mere minnow compared to the sharks he swims amongst, that should not blind us to the real dangers that would come from allowing somebody like him rise to such a prominent position at the heart of our national life.

Fast ‘ne halbe Milliarde. Jedes Jahr. Für ‘ne Geflüchteten-Unterkunft.

Für soviel Geld könnte man eigentlich was Vernünftiges hinkriegen.

Oder man macht es so, wie das Land Berlin, das DRK und die Messe Berlin in #Tegel.

Beschämend in der Debatte über den Umgang mit der AfD: Kaum wer berücksichtigt in der Argumentation die Gruppen, die von Rechtsextremisten bedroht werden.

Man bringt’s fertig, sich in AfD-Wähler und deren Ängste hineinzudenken, und zeigt null Empathie für die, die tatsächlich verfolgt werden.

You truly could not make it up.

You could not.
Screenshot of Times article with headline: "Florida may loosen child labour laws to fill gap left by migrants" The article explains a law has been proposed in Florida to allow children as young as 14 to work overnight shifts in agriculture & constraction to make up for lost migrant labour. Yes really.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.
X post by Timothy Snyder (@TimothyD ...), posted 6 hours ago. The post reads, "The people Attorney General Bondi is calling 'terrorists' have had no trial and no chance to defend them. We do not know they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril."
