Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Lots of illegal news to sort through with @gtconway.bsky.social And signs of life from the legal community as we finally get some protest resignations in the face of the Trump administration’s naked corruption!

It’s been buried in all the news today, but every scientist in the US should pay attention to this: Mike Lauer went out on a limb for us all, sending out a memo saying institutes should start awarding grants. And it looks like Trump/Musk fired him for that. 🧪

For whatever stupid political reasons, the Trump administration took down information about avian flu transmission from cats to people (and vice versa). There are 74M cats in the US. This is endangering public health. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/h...

“You have to prepare your students for the future!” and "Your students are already using AI, so you must teach them how to use it ethically!" Two common messages used to push and pull teachers headlong into AI mania. I wrote about resisting these messages here:

We're just starting to understand how AI "think" during inference. Current large models often abandon promising lines of reasoning too quickly, "underthinking". When they get math problems wrong, it's often because they jumped away from correct approaches too early. Lots of room to improve this.

Green-banded broodsacs are parasitic worms infect snails. The worm grows through the snails body, inserting tentacles into the snails eye stalks, and pulsing those tentacles like lures. Birds see these tentacles, consume the snails and complete the parasites life cycle 🎥wiki 🧪🌿

I thought I was going to take today off social media other than posting about Martin Luther King Jr, but when I saw this video of Musk, my heart stopped! This is America in 2025? As a Jewish person I'm horrified, but I want folks to see what they voted for.

Here's the first of probably periodic warnings to remind yourself that the "firehose of falsehoods" disinformation tactic is about to go into full swing. You do not need to watch the news to bear witness. You do not need to watch hideous videos of violence. They will be circulated to keep you upset

Generative AI has flaws and biases, and there is a tendency for academics to fix on that (85% of equity LLM papers focus on harms)… …yet in many ways LLMs are uniquely powerful among new technologies for helping people equitably in education and healthcare. We need an urgent focus on how to do that
