My largest remaining NSF grant, which was awarded by a competitive process on the recommendation of national experts, was terminated yesterday. The money would have paid for PhD students to invent better AI systems for everyday people who need programs written for them but can't or won't write them themselves. I'm sad that the rate of progress we make will slow down significantly, because all our progress is made public for everyone to benefit from. That's what

We all perform tasks in our day-to-day work that are considered 'non-promotable' – these are crucial for project success, but they won't get you promoted. This is commonly known as 'glue work', a term coined by Tanya Reilly. Join Fatima Taj at this year's Berlin Buzzwords as she shares her personal experience of narrowly avoiding the trap of being permanently stuck with glue work, and explains how to handle similar situations.

This is a sad evening. By the time this posts, my WoW sub will have expired. I will not be renewing it.
I have played WoW since 2006. I have played it almost as long as all my relationships combined. (There's been a couple sizable gaps between 'ships, yo.) I have dozens of alts. 2 years played time (yeah, not THAT much considering, but I also play other games and have taken a couple year long breaks.)
