Duke appears to have lost NIH grants because they used the prefix "trans" in reference to disease transmission, transgenic genetic material, translational studies, or signal transduction www.dukechronicle.com/article/2025...

I'd love some thoughts/feedback (pushback?) on this post: justinjackson.ca/ai-app-devs

They've changed the headline and IDK which is worse

ICE "is using a new mobile phone app that can identify someone based on their fingerprints or face by simply pointing a smartphone camera at them." "[T]he app is ordinarily used when people enter or exit the U.S." #USA #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

It's Friday and don't stop work for the weekend before you check out today's Metacurity for the most critical infosec developments you should know, including --Cyber incident disrupts Hawaiian Airlines, but flights are unaffected 1/3 www.metacurity.com/cyber-incide...

We need a way to validate approaches to how we work with LLMs to write code, and we need to start developing the dataset. I've laid some groundwork here, but I need help. Tear it up, critique it, but most of all, PR some evals y'all. #ElixirLang github.com/ash-project/...

The younger generation wants to do reporting and even statistics using an ORM — especially Eloquent. Big disagreement. No, an ORM is not made for that job.

⚡️ #LightningTalks 2025 recordings are here! 7 bite-sized talks packed with quirky ideas, experimental projects, and #functional fun - from #Gleam to gaming, #Unison to unusual use cases. Perfect if you’ve only got a few minutes but still want to get inspired. 📺 Watch now:

I've been hearing a lot of folks talking about "when things get better." This is grim, but I think it's healthier to conceive this as "if things get better." This puts the onus on us to do the work, because only we will save ourselves. 🧪 scienceforeveryone.science/p/the-stages...

he keeps doing it! i’m glad this moved to a separate repo. seems like, ten chapters in, might be a good time for me to revisit Analysis from the Lean perspective github.com/teorth/analy...

In this blog, you will learn some Docker best practices mainly focussed on Java applications. This is not only a theoretical exercise, but you will learn how to apply the best practices to your Dockerfiles. Enjoy! #java #docker

I really like this article's perspective on software development as theory building; it succinctly conveys a lot of what I've felt is lost when too much of your code is generated by AI: cekrem.github.io/posts/progra...

The European Commission must once and for all abandon the ghost of data retention that’s been haunting EU policy discussions for decades, and shift its focus to rights respecting alternatives.

16% of Swiss federal politicians have data on the dark web. Of 277 email addresses checked, 44 were found in dark web marketplaces - many tied to major breaches like LinkedIn, Dropbox, and yes, even adult sites. 1/5 ⬇️

Programming nerds were used to be proud of being familiar with somewhat geeky things (functional programming, compiler, vim or emacs, ...) but now they are just being proud of how much 💸 they are spending on Claude... I don't like both attitude but it's kind of boring that diversity is decreasing

Wonderful to see this piece out! I really think we as a field are converging on a unified account of the hippocampus as a modality agnostic, task-relevant, sequence prediction machine. I bet that within the next decade we will have a complete computational model of the hippocampus. 🧠📈 🧪

There's one thing that often gets overlooked when you build your own business. It's asking the right questions. • Is this feature crucial at this stage? • Do I really need to automate this rn? • Did I consider retention in the profits? • What is the simplest way to solve this? #buildinpublic

Do you agree with Linus? 🤔

The shell, as well as the command-line tools in Linux, never cease to impress me. For example, I needed to split the PATH from :

This article reviews a trio of books that argue entrepreneurs no longer need technical cofounders or even marketing teams thanks to AI chatbots. You can get an AI to write the code, come up with marketing copy and role play as your customer. Compelling pitch but where are the success stories?

Take note.

What a time to be alive. The president of the United States doing battle damage assessment via sketchy OSINT accounts. I had blocked this particular account some time ago.

All you suckers who bought into #Spotify despite absolutely knowing musicians were being ripped off can now see what you were actually buying. That’s your money being used to start a war fighting AI.

If you ever wanted to see how libertarianism or anarchy would work in practice, just look at geopolitics.

Donald Trump has thrown the USA into another pointless war in the Middle East, one that is horrifically unpopular before it has even started. How many Americans will he kill, and how much money will he waste on bombs when he won't even provide basic healthcare to citizens?

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

Trump announces on social media that the US has bombed Iran
