In car-dependent communities like my own, careless driving on Halloween can pose massive risk to families trick-or-treating.
If you need not drive today, then DO NOT. If you do, use utmost patience and care and set aside some extra time for your commute: drive slow. Keep our streets safe. 🎃

You can never bend the knee enough to appease an authoritarian bully.
This is a devastating blow to academic freedom & freedom of speech at Columbia.
Never in the history of this nation has there been an administration so intent on the utter destruction of higher education as we know it.
😊 I am saying that I am not sure we have paper that big but I always tend to have heavy pictures
I am sorry.
But I like to think that everyone have a copy on a open online repository.
But yes why not
It is a major policy failure that the US cannot accommodate top AI conferences due to visa issues.

'The myth of meritocracy in science collapses under the financial sacrifices expected at every career stage. From unpaid internships and self-funded conferences to underpaid graduate and postdoctoral positions, the hidden costs of ‘doing science’ are profound.'

People always ask me : “Cristi, how do you manage parenting a baby while going up for tenure?”
It’s easy. The secret is *flow-based-scheduling*. Here are its three core strategies for new academic parents:
Sleep when the baby sleeps
Cry when the baby cries
Publish when the baby publishes
The part in the sci-fi story where the villain explains that the only way they could create their monster was to destroy millions of books.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com
Three Yale professors who have written extensively on authoritarianism are leaving the U.S. “We’re like people on the Titanic saying our ship can’t sink,” Marci Shore said. “And what you know as a historian is that there is no such thing as a ship that can’t sink.”
“West Point scrapped two history courses… and an English course… The sociology major was dissolved, and a Black history project at the history department was disbanded. Department leaders forced professors to remove from their courses works by James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, Alice Walker...”
Wybo Houkes and I are hiring a PhD student to work on an exciting project in Philosophy of Science 😊
The application deadline is May 18. Please spread the word and consider applying 👇
