Nice short discussion of the evolving understanding of 3I/ATLAS as this interstellar comet continues its approach to the Sun and more observations come in from various telescopes, featuring a lot of the observing folks 🔭☄️🧪
Telescopes Reveal Surprising Chemistry of a Rare Interstellar Object Passing Through Our Solar System
Called 3I/ATLAS, the object is only the third of its kind known to astronomers, and it’s likely been heading our way for billions of years, carrying pristine material from another star system

Something that I have been thinking about with attribution of "PhD level intelligence" or "PhD level expertise" to a machine is that it reflects an increasing trend among these AI bros and their sycophants to want the products of highly skilled training without actually doing any of the work.

One of my colleagues and a union comrade was abducted at the Camarillo action yesterday.
We still don't know where he is, who is holding them, or any other information about his status.
If you're in the area, please reach out to the folks listed in the press release and donate to the bail fund.

Are you from one of these states? Then we need your help to save American science!
The Senate Appropriations Committee will be marking up the President's Budget Request for science on Wednesday. People have been saying the proposed cuts "decimated" US science, but that's wrong: they are apocalyptic

The public was 100% ready for trans rights just a few years ago.
What we’re seeing now is a massive shift in public opinion after a coordinated and expensive propaganda blitz, one that Dems happily ignored.
Trans rights aren’t new. We had them for years and everything was cool.

I just don't get it.
The United States is doing every single step one would need to do for a soft genocide.
And this congresswoman goes "maybe the public just isn't ready for trans rights, we have to consider that"
NO.
THE FUCK.
WE DO NOT.

The repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.
Heightened Scrutiny, a very good doc about the Supreme Court case that was just ruled on, does an impeccable and infuriating job laying out just how culpable the NYT and Atlantic are for the nation’s transphobia www.avclub.com/sundance-202...

A question: If I offered coaching for writers--troubleshooting projects or habits, pushing through blocks, leveling up, body doubling sprints, things like that--is that a set of services people would be interested in? I'm doing a bit of that right now, and finding it both fun and fulfilling work.

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost
I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

This is catastrophic. PREA is enforced shoddily and easily weaponized against trans and queer people, but it is still so, so much better than the gaping nothing that preceded it.
The DOJ "has terminated all funding for the National Prison Rape Elimination Act Resource Center."
"[A] library of [..] everything that's ever been written about how to prevent and address sexual violence in custodial settings."
"[C]atastrophic for incarcerated people."
