Honestly, seeing all these layoffs is depressing — and hearing that there are more to come. Though, I suppose, at this point you are used to it so much that you basically expect that the layoffs will continue until no techs work anymore.
It is additionally personally depressing because I need some income as well. And regularly I see that a lot of other people are looking for IT jobs. People who have more experience than I'll ever have. People who are often healthy and can work full-time. Most importantly, people who urgently need the job, while I keep telling myself I'll manage somehow — after all, I never needed much.

This is a nice bio talk on how we keep finding genes and there interactions are more complex (and a plug for the presenters book...)

“Politics requires changing minds — and changing minds doesn't happen by presenting a set of ostensibly neutral, indisputable facts. Minds are changed by telling a gripping, cogent story that opens up the possibility of a new reality that voters choose to inhabit.”

Leveraging open-source models for legal language modeling and analysis: a case study on the Indian constitution
In recent years, the use of open-source models has gained immense popularity in various fields, including legal language modelling and analysis. These models have proven to be highly effective in tasks such as summarizing legal documents, extracting key information, and even predicting case outcomes. This has revolutionized the legal industry, enabling lawyers, researchers, and policymakers to quickly access and analyse vast amounts of legal text, saving time and resources. This paper presents …

I love it when I reply to someone's post, telling them i love them and will miss them, and that person deletes their post and re-posts it so that my reply isn't there....
Guess I won't miss you then....🙄

Sexualization Not Safety: Black Girls, Trans, and Gender Nonconforming Youth’s Experiences of Police Presence in Schools: Report — Interrupting Criminalization | Research In Action
A report sharing insights from a 3-year community story-telling project engaging Black girls, trans and GNC youth around their experiences of police presence in schools, including sexual harassment, assault, and violence.

A weekend off! Work laptop is off! Hopefully no one calls the cell phone as I will ignore everyone except two and only two people. They will only call if there is an emergency. Received a call on my personal phone yesterday from a person asking questions on why a FTP failed. First mistake was answering the call. I was rather blunt telling them at that time I was NOT AVAILABLE. I am on call 1 week out of 3 and this week I AM NOT ON CALL.

X-ray imaging and electron temperature evolution in laser-driven magnetic reconnection experiments at the National Ignition Facility
We present results from X-ray imaging of high-aspect-ratio magnetic reconnection experiments driven at the National Ignition Facility. Two parallel, self-magnetized, elongated laser-driven plumes are produced by tiling 40 laser beams. A magnetic reconnection layer is formed by the collision of the plumes. A gated X-ray framing pinhole camera with micro-channel plate (MCP) detector produces multiple images through various filters of the formation and evolution of both the plumes and current shee…
