Uncertainty is at the core of everything. Our understanding and our ability to predict and control is fundamentally limited - often by resource constraints, but also by the complexities of nature. 1/n

I know that some people might not understand the gravity of what's going on with all the federal funding cuts in the US. Not just top academic institutions, like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, and Cornell, but all of US academia is under existential threat. 1/n

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy. But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

Just before Trump announced the pause on tarrifs he posted "This is a great time to buy." Tump is enriching himself and his billionaire buddies by trashing the US economy.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

This morning I wanted to show my class how data poisoning works with a silly example so I added a little bit of white text on my personal website. By lunch, ChatGPT had made me a professional futsal player (even if with a bit of a leading question)

USA led the world in expertise stopping HIV, incl preventing mother to child transmission. But DOGE has now dismissed every global prevention expert at USAID, CDC, & State Dept. The risk is insane: Resurgent HIV & 500K child deaths by 2030. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/h...

The consequences of mother-to-child transmission can be enormous, a new study suggests. But the U.S. has dismissed experts working to solve the problem.
