Journalism and teaching are some of the most valuable yet thankless jobs in our society. I want to thank everyone who wakes up in the morning excited to teach others or inform their fellow humans for terrible pay.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

mRNA vaccines are the biggest breakthrough in disease prevention and treatment in decades. We're curing *cancer* with mRNA vaccines. To eliminate research in this field, at this moment, is fall-of-the-empire-grade stuff.

+1 on this: The US stands out relative to other country because of decades of big-time investment in scientific infrastructure. That is why the US won on science and attracting talent.
Trump is dismantling that infrastructure now, but it has never existed in other countries to the same degree.
Pet peeve: I hate how often ppl claim “all the researchers will just move to Europe/Canada!” You vastly under-estimate how little money there is there vs the USA- and unless that changes ASAP this loss is just going to decimate global science, full stop. 🧪🔭

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

From a person w/ intimate knowledge of the FAA's technical systems. To say they're concerned is an understatement. These are systems you do not fuck around with. Even small, subtle changes, can ripple through systems which all feed into each other, and keep planes in the sky, freight being delivered

Here’s a great example of these idiots having no idea what they’re cutting. Why would the U.S. help Sri Lanka mitigate the effects of climate change? Because natural disasters are brutal and sea level rise will devastate the country. If we don’t help, China will.

Astro website deployed with AWS Amplify using GitHub repo.

Now, every time I do a git push, the code gets automatically deployed.

Amplify is an interesting serverless solution to deploy React applications on the cloud. The best part is that it offers an integrated CDN globally.

Slide creation/editing seems ripe for disruption. Why can't I say "Create a placeholder for five 1-inch by 1-inch icons and space them evenly across the slide horizontally"?
