I know! I just got a Manta a week ago and literally the experience over an iPad is significant for reading, notes and keeping your mind more organized without the distractions of the Internet... Research papers and books are a thousand times better to read in the supernote.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

Living beings emit a faint light that extinguishes upon death, according to a new study The light of someone's life might not be just another person, but light in the literal sense. According to a recent study by researchers from University of Calgary, every living system emits light wit...

This isn’t my area of study but I’d love to hear more

Living organisms emit faint light tied to cellular metabolism. Researchers found this light fades rapidly at death. It could help track cell stress non invasively.

Grant Watch

NEW: We (mostly @noamross.net) launched a website to shine a brighter light on terminated NIH and NSF grants.

grant-watch.us

It links to our NIH & NSF trackers, grant info submission forms, and other info. We'll also add new analyses soon.

Check it out and let us know what else you'd like to see.

🧡 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

A New Study Finds That Domestic Cats Traveled the Silk Road to China About 1,400 Years Ago The animals were likely gifted to some elites, then spread throughout the region

Ancient Chinese people even performed specific religious rituals when bringing a cat into their homes, viewing them not as mere possessions but as honored guests.

Biden and Dems managed to net the USA *the* best economic recovery from COVID the world has seen, with:

* increased social safety nets
* empowered unions
* low unemployment
* increased lower-and-middle-class wages
* stronger consumer rights/protections

And people *openly lied* about its effects!

This one hurts a lot. Richard is a great scientist. His elegant work inspired me to get into mitochondrial biology and he went out of his way to help me establish myself in the field. So sad for our whole community.

The more coverage a story gets, the more important readers think it is.

So it matters when the NYT inflates flimsy Dem β€˜scandals’ while downplaying real, criminal ones from Trump and Republicans. It’s not just bad judgment β€” it shapes public perception.

99.4% of new drugs approved by the FDA are the product of NIH funded research.
Remember this every time you see another headline on the NIH funding cuts.
It will directly impact YOU.

That even as Tesla seems to be in a bad financial place right now, several newspapers have reported that other companies are seeing an increase in profit, rather than a decline. That's what I meant from "doing good".

It's not just Tesla he owns, it's also SpaceX, Neuralink, the Boring Company, casi, X... And those others are doing good!

You have to hand it to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, he knows exactly how to handle Trump.

The US President responds to shiny objects, and to things that move. Watch Trump transform here, from apathetic boredom, to awe; and how he warms to the idea of keeping the shiny, moving thing.
