Some 10,109 doctoral-trained experts in science and related fields left their jobs last year
as Donald Trump dramatically shrank the overall federal workforce.
That exodus was only 3% of the 335,192 federal workers who exited last year
but represents 14% of the total number of Ph.D.s in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) or health fields employed at the end of 2024 as then-President Joe Biden prepared to leave office.
The numbers come from employment da…

Just a reminder that the difference in popular vote in the 2024 election was only 1.5%, with a piss poor voter turnout of 64%. I think that if the democrats had a real primary and a candidate that more period could get behind it would have easily gone the other way.

Found an old power bill while cleaning up. In the end of 2018 I was paying 9.05 c/kWh for the first 600 kWh and 10.94 above.
Now it's 15.1 and 17.0.
The rate of increase was very much nonlinear though: from October 2018 to October 2024 (six years) the tier 1 rate only climbed by 27%.
It went up 10.5% in 2024 and 20.7% in 2025 alone.
