One way to work around the administrative overhead of too many grants is to apply for larger pots of money but do it collaboratively with more senior professors who have experience. I personally didn't take any military or NIH funding, just NSF, industry, and foundations.

At least one item on his wishlist has been granted: Bluesky has decided to quadruple the size of its contract workforce of content moderators from 25 to 100, the company told Platformer. The move comes in response to Blueskyβs rapid growth since this monthβs US presidential election, which triggered a fresh exodus of users away from Elon Muskβs X and over the weekend took the platform past 22 million total users.
Some news: amid rapid growth and some over-enforcement of its community guidelines, Bluesky trust and safety chief @aaron.bsky.team tells me the company will quadruple the size of its content moderation team www.platformer.news/bluesky-grow...
Turns out most of the drs who did have chatgpt didn't really use it. They treated it as a search engine. Also, drs were overly confident in their own intuitions.

Maybe if it's about people who do relevant research you would still get more or less the same people but it wouldn't visibly group them by identity more by interest and what they talk about.
I want to create an incubator that funds atproto/bluesky experimental projects to the tune of $5k-$10k dev grants.
I am sorely tempted to call it βChemtrailsβ, because it seeds the ATmosphere
Hit me with your best ideas!
Fairness definitions differ across groups! For white respondents, fairness = "proximity'' to assigned school. For Hispanic or Latino parents, fairness = "same rules'' for everyone. Cool work by @nilou.bsky.social + students
