GOP Senator Eric Schmitt stood 10 toes down accusing Jack Smith of attending an Atlanta Hawks game. The problem? Jack Smith was at an IOWA HAWKEYES game. But we're here to clear up a few things for Sen. Schmitt. Help us set the record straight: https://demdock.com/3T3Owjg

I wrote about a reason not to use generative AI in your writing that I haven't seen anyone talking about. Once I realized this, banning GenAI in our lab's writing became a no-brainer. Feel free to share, I think this is probably useful especially for trainees: www.carlsonlab.bio/thoughts/the...

Germany’s team absolutely choked during those PKs, but let’s not forget the game was fully stolen from them by an entirely blown VAR call. Zero excuse for that kind of poor officiating, and FIFA should be investigating what happened here.

53 years ago today, the last U.S. combat troops left South Vietnam, ending America’s direct role in the Vietnam War. I remember seeing this anti-war PSA back then. Its message is sadly still very relevant today as Trump drags us into another unpopular war.

While I’m *encouraged* by what Discord had to say about this age ID system, it still absolutely remains to be seen how it will work in practice. Marginalized communities are always disproportionately affected by “fairness” or “safety” policies only designed to be fair or safe for “the majority”

Discord needs to solve the ID issue NOW. No more half measures, lies, impossible promises. Discord seems fundamentally incapable of honesty, and fails to be a secure and safe place for people of ANY age “playing games and chilling with friends, or even building a worldwide community”
