This is concerning for all of us. I heard a conference I go to regularly is expecting up to 40% less attendees. That’s a LOT and affects their ability to even run the conference given the rates conference centers charge!

Skriver om hur det var att ta skydd med mina grannar under det ryska anfallet, när explosionerna bara fortsatte. Och om att Putin har slutat låtsas. Och att Zelenskyj den här våren har lyckats påminna om krigets kärna: Lämnar Ryssland Ukraina, så blir det fred. www.dn.se/varlden/nikl...

Tråd från i natt. Ukrainarna har stått ut i över 3 år, attacker dag&natt. Hundratusentals soldater och civila har dödats i Kremls försök att krossa Ukraina till att bli en rysk lydstat. Kiev ändå mindre utsatt än andra städer, som tvåmiljonerstaden Charkiv. Kommer DN-reportage därifrån på måndag!

NASA engineers fixed some thrusters on Voyager 1 from 15 billion miles (almost 1 light-day) away. They’d been broken for 20+ years and the fix was tricky. “If the heaters were still off when they fired, it could trigger a small explosion…” Amazing. (via @cmdr-hadfield.bsky.social) [jpl.nasa.gov]

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

ominous. repeatedly in authoritarian environments, mainstream media accommodate & capitulate, leaving the field of investigation & criticism to low circulation outlets. it gives government a way to say, 'look, see, we allow freedom of expression!' but it's deadly to democracy.

I just got the official email from the NSF about the drastic cuts and I think the correct translation is "if you are a young researcher who still wants to do science strongly consider leaving the United States if you can." which, really, is not an ideal message to be sending.

Nazi Germany surrendered in May 1945. For Americans, the Second World War would rage for three more months, until VJ Day in August. But for Russians and those influenced by them, "Victory Day" falls in May. Trump follows the Russian practice, not the American.
