It ain’t glamorous but this is science, and there are thousands of experiments and trials just like this that will take years or decades to gets back to the point they’re at now—if they ever get picked up again, that is—if these cuts are allowed to happen

Not for nothing he names La Guardia as the best mayor of all time – Mandami is the only candidate I've seen who campaigns by showing he enjoys New York CIty and has fun here, which was one of La Guardia's animating passions

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Whenever police lawlessness is caught on camera: think about how much isn't being caught on camera.

Not like “accidentally shot in the chaos and confusion,” there’s nothing going on around her, cop sees that she’s on camera, and shoots her while her back is turned to him.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

it's absolutely important to couch every statement from this guy in the context that he hired a person based solely on the credential that the guy strangled one of my neighbors to death. no background in software or finance, just murder.

I wonder if they explicitly included the racism in their prompt or just let the AI be racist for them. It’s garbage all the way down

These are crimes. They're committing crimes. And when people understandably protest the fact that they're committing crimes, they're shooting flashbangs at them.

We've had more than a decade of American law enforcement's aggressively, militarized responses to street protests regularly causing violence. This is a well documented, well discussed pattern. There is no excuse for any politician/journalist/civil society figure to not acknowledge that reality.

People tried so hard to follow the law, Byzantine and unjust as it is. They showed up at meetings, filled out the paperwork, went to the courthouse. You responded by kidnapping them in front of their children and dragging them to black sites. This is what’s left. This is all that’s left.

Mass deportation and immigration enforcement in the interior requires a police state, and the more of that you want, the more obviously it will look and act like a police state. Roll paramilitary goons into people's neighborhoods and it isn't some abstract issue of "the border" anymore.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

the masked cops thing feels very jarring, it is clear and it's scary, but also the masks also feel like just the most obvious demonstration of how police are already a near-total black box into which public information disappears and that's just routine

I bumped into a sweet neighbor, a Palestinian American guy I have come to have a chatting-on-the block relationship with, and he told me about an elderly aunt in Gaza and I asked if there was a fund for her I could donate to and he looked at me and said: there's nothing to buy.

One of the worst aspects of the detailed NSF budget request (emphasis on request) is that it eviscerates our ability to train future scientists. Funding for postdocs (PhD scientists doing research w/o permanent jobs) — some of the most productive scientists out there — would be down 91%. 🧪 [1/]
