Scientists have often been trained to adopt value-free, politically nonpartisan positions in social controversies. (See Marcia McNutt's comments this morning.) But this posture is itself anti-scientific, when it enables the weaponization of purported scientific values. 13/

In my genetics lab this spring, in real time, I showed them how ChatGPT could almost entirely fabricate a CV for me. It gave me a degree fro Yale I don’t have and 6 fake publications. They were shocked!

I’m incredibly proud to have seen city council members and community leaders there making sure people were safe and helping folks who were injured. My fellow candidates for mayor were also there helping out, all of them except for our current mayor.

I also use folded maps (and Gazeteers) and atlases. GPS has rewired whole brains and maps provide useful stimulation so I'm going to stick with maps (and only use GPS if I'm in a golf course neighborhood where maps seem to be useless...at least while I was in Little Rock, AR recently).

I've just not seen it on uniformed police during a raid, but yeah, even the "back the blue" flag that police depts like to fly is a violation.

Has anyone told them about Gazeteers?

My first car was a Toyota Tercel two door in 1992. Manual 4-speed. manual everything. No radio. It would really wind up on the highway with no 5th or overdrive. Fun little car.

Wearing the flag as a garment is a violation of the US Flag Code. Surprised to see law enforcement defiling Old Glory by wearing it as a spit-rag gaiter.

I used it commuting to work a few times this spring, but wasn't sure if it was ok. good to know.

There is a scientist who studies “patterns” in data to ferret out scientific fraud. Dr Elizabeth Bik. She’s on Bluesky.

I lost interest in her when she said it was no big deal when someone got a head injury at a violent precinct caucus she participated in.
