Il Garante sanziona TUTTA LA FILIERA che ha portato il Fascicolo Sanitario Elettronico del Molise ad avere dei buchi vergognosi ed esporre a 🐩🐩🐖🐖 i dati dei cittadini. Una vicenda ridicola di sciatteria disumana delle istituzioni e dei loro fornitori.

It's a very sad day. Just notified that @iza.org is closing its doors as of 31 December 2025. At a time when labor is under attack and technological change moves at an ever-faster pace, I can't help but think that this is a short-sighted decision. My heart goes out to those folks who work there.

Awful: Numerous scientists and researchers were just fired at NIH's center for treating Alzheimer's, sources tell me. They fear Trump-Musk cuts could dramatically set back our ability to treat dementias. New reporting from me here: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

This is very important and concerning. The NIH funding freeze is still in place. NIH can't issue new awards if proposals aren't approved by Council. OMB is using a technical work around to prevent these meetings from happening. NIH can't post meetings, so they can't actually have them.

The Federal Reserve is not as independent from the executive branch as we’d like to think. The NY Fed just cancelled this Thursday’s @aeacswep.bsky.social reception at #EEA2025 and withdrew from our summer fellowship program. Both support women and underrepresented groups in economics. #EconSky

The wealthiest man in the world who is engaged in a coup of the government is openly stating that his end goal was never about efficiency. It was always about white power and instituting what the new right tech world has called “the event” the moment which governments collapse and they take over

⚠️ Effective Monday 2/10/25, NIH indirect rate capped at 15%. Applies to existing & future grants. —> Deep budget cuts & program closures coming to a university near you. Is this the break the glass moment for university administrators who have been silent so far about the attack on science?
