As 2025 ends, the Standard Model still hasn’t cracked

Here in 2025, many challenges have arisen to both Standard Models: particle physics and cosmology.

As the year end, there's barely a crack in either.

The media needs to stop writing headlines like “The CDC changes course on vaccines and autism” and “The CDC defends measles response”.

NONE of this is coming from legitimate scientists at the CDC.

ALL of it is coming from RFK Jr.

Every such headline is causing further harm to public health.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

A recent study by Dutch colleagues shows that a shutdown of the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC could bring extreme drought to Europe for centuries.
That is a thus far underappreciated risk of climate change.

Why is Microsoft bundling Security Copilot licenses with E5? Clearly because they can't sell it as a standalone product.

In other news, E5 costs will certainly go up "due to enhanced value."
