Trump was sued on Friday by preservationists
asking a federal court to halt his White House ballroom project until it goes through multiple independent reviews and wins approval from Congress.
The National Trust for Historic Preservation, a privately funded group,
is asking the U.S. District Court to block Trump’s White House ballroom project,
which already has involved razing the East Wing,
until it goes through comprehensive design reviews, environmental asses…

"NSF pares down grant-review process, reducing influence of outside scientists"
'"This is like a stick in the spokes of merit review,” says one staffer who requested anonymity because of fear of retaliation. “It devalues discussion of the merits of each proposal.”'

I only noticed after getting home from Stereolab that the song Laetitia introduced as "Capitalism is a Wound" is called, on the album, "Melodie is a Wound." Did the label censor it?! She introduced it that way in Vancouver too apparently https://exclaim.ca/music/a…

The headline should be: ❝AI vendor’s AI-generated analysis claims AI generated reviews for AI-generated papers at AI conference❞
To be clear, I give great credence to the claims of the humans in the article who thought they’d received an AI-generated review. I bet •they’re• correct. It’s Nature I’m coming after here.
A journalistic institution would investigate that claim, track down the reviewer in question, get to the bottom of the story. A PR outlet would just repeat some vendor’s product claims as fact and click “publish.”
Which one is Nature?

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.,
recently announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will launch a
review of the safety of the abortion pill, mifepristone.
Health researchers say they’re concerned that the review will be politicized and based on flawed reports.
More than 100 studies published over the past few decades have shown that the drug,
which was approved by the FDA in 2000,
is safe and effective at ending a…

It is hard to imagine a worse decision than the Supreme Court’s ruling on Thursday
allowing Texas to use its new congressional maps designed to elect five more Republicans to the House of Representatives.
In a 6-3 decision, the six conservative justices have opened the door to states being able to adopt unconstitutional laws on voting
— with immunity from judicial review for at least one election.
At the urging of President Trump, Texas’ Republican-controlled state L…

The White House pressed U.S. Navy officials to launch 2,000-pound live bombs instead of dummy explosives during an elaborate military demonstration for the service’s 250th anniversary celebration that Donald Trump attended,
Original planning for what the Navy dubbed the Titans of the Sea Presidential Review called for military personnel to use dummies and not live bombs

For the last year, the nation has witnessed Trump’s rapid physical and mental decline.
The 79-year-old president has repeatedly lost track of his thoughts, his whereabouts, and even his grasp on the English language.
The New Republic’s breaking news team has put together a list of the president’s most senile moments in his first year in office
The privately funded National Trust for Historic Preservation last week asked the U.S. District Court to block Trump’s project.
“No president is legally allowed to tear down portions of the White House without any review whatsoever
— not President Trump, not President Biden, and not anyone else,” the lawsuit states.
“And no president is legally allowed to construct a ballroom on public property without giving the public the opportunity to weigh in.”
Trump had the East W…
👀Great, hopeful review on one avenue to increase #crop yield 🌿🧪.
Context - we'll need 35-50% more food globally by 2050 but there are few signs that we're getting there. Yes, many issues in this space.
But photosynthesis is now one of the plant metabolic pathways where we have really good understanding, sufficient to see meaningful improvements of yield in the field, in #rice, #potato, #soybean. This is detailed in the review ➡️ #PlantSci #FoodSecurity
