This is a sad but interesting question. How many grad students will leave and where, if anywhere will they go ?
Live here and am in grad school here. I have one class where 13 out of the 15 in it are leaving the state or country at end of semester.
That funding loss will really impact the summer where the population is half that so it’s about $2k per person.

Well at least now we know that time travel doesn’t exist otherwise someone would’ve taken care of things to prevent current events. Also they could’ve told me to cut my mullet hair off back in the day. Shit.

Colleagues are cancelling their US work trips. I worry that international colleagues in the US are at risk if they collaborate with us on certain topics.
I've written a new post about the increasing danger of being a foreign scientist in the US.

Trump's attacks on universities get ever darker, with the shadows reaching our shores
The US has become a hostile and authoritarian state to foreign scientists and is choosing ideology over science.

This is such good advice. The difference between my feed on Twitter and here is when I came here many more fans of other teams followed me so I found them much easier and I love the entire league camaraderie here so much better.
If you like sports, and you like talking about sports on social media, a pro tip to making it so much more fun is to find fans from other teams that you like and follow them, too.
It makes the games more fun, it makes the losses a thousand times more tolerable, and it just elevates the whole thing.

This first press conference is a political event from elected officials, no comment from NTSB thus far. The U.S. doesn't have an acting FAA administrator.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?
If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.
