Hilarious. After the DOGErs set up the new government-wide all employee email system in late January OPM, where it is housed, sent out an advisory which states explicitly that no employee ever has to respond to any of the emails. See 4.2 and 4.3. www.opm.gov/media/kfpozk...

If there's a lesson for JD Vance and Elon Musk, it's that everybody hates a tourist.

AFD underperformed. Elon is kryptonite.

This is what I’m on about. As attorneys are getting sanctioned left and right, bar association CLEs are still convincing them it’s okay, if not outright compulsory, to use AI. How is a five figure sanction good for any client’s interests?!

New study out in @sfjournal.bsky.social. We find Christian nationalism is among the leading predictors of multiple measures of racial solidarity, but ONLY FOR WHITES. For Blacks, CN actually seems to make them LESS inclined to advocate for themselves in politics. 1/3 academic.oup.com/sf/advance-a...

“It’s an attack on working people, it’s an attack on public service.” — NALC President Brian Renfroe As letter carriers, we serve every American. It’s our job, and we do it with pride. We will not stand by while the work we do is under attack. #HellNo! (🧵1/2)

Acting CISA Director Bridget Bean wants employees to respond to OPM's "what did you do last week?" email. "I want to make sure that everyone is clear that this is a legitimate request from OPM," she wrote to staff last night. "I will share more information as it becomes available."

If you assume there is wasteful spending, and you assume a meritocracy where not every person can do every job, you can't get rid of wasteful spending by indiscriminately firing people. You don't know the criticality of the people you fired and remaining people can't do their jobs.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

Yes that is the accusation.

Smith previously announced she was not running for re-election.

The AMS is temporarily opening its career services to all who need them, regardless of membership status, and offering dues waivers and meeting registration fee reductions for those impacted by job loss due to changes in the government. Read more: bit.ly/4gRiHAk

Since I'm spending my morning reviewing a "forensics report" for a client, I'll just implore you: * This is NOT something you can just DIY * Call an adult * For the love of fsck, do NOT let your IT MSP conduct the investigation. This errors on this one are easily a 7 figure mistake.

It is very hard to accept, but it is no longer safe to move EU governments & societies to US clouds. Not only is it dangerous to do so, it is also likely flat out illegal in the near feature. We're trading convenience for utter dependence on a mad king. It should stop. berthub.eu/articles/pos...

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Last year, we published a paper showing that AI models can "debunk" conspiracy theories via personalized conversations. That paper raised a major question: WHY are the human<>AI convos so effective? In a new working paper, we have some answers. TLDR: facts osf.io/preprints/ps...

@beyer.house.gov caught OPM/NSF arbitrarily reclassifying non-probationary NSF employees as probationary so they could be fired more easily. beyer.house.gov/uploadedfile... See also Reuters (which didn't link letter): www.reuters.com/world/us/us-... I hope the satire writers are watching.
