I’d like to think that my taxes go to pay for infrastructure and having a functioning civilization: once that was just roads and bridges and electricity, but gradually it also became supporting arts and sciences. These people act like the richest country in the world is actually impoverished.

BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency. Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

The folks who are saying robotics will pick up the manufacturing slack are going to destroy the robotics industry just like they are trashing every other scientific endeavor in the US.

I don’t think people really understand what china has done to become a manufacturing superpower. There are entire cities dedicated to specialized sub industries, you’ll find all the experts in the world for manufacturing shatterproof phone screens in one place. 🧵

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

The birds are going to pay, I keep telling you, it's not a tax on Americans it's a tax on the birds. The birds have been cheating us forever, they've been taking advantage of us, we will no longer be victims to these tuxedoed thugs.

This is pretty horrid. AI can help but it will not replace trained scientists, as I was reminded 2 nights ago it can’t even fix off by one errors in logic puzzles.
