Within one 24 hour period, Trump: - got out of a $100 million IRS fine - secured "immunity" from all future tax investigations for his family and friends - created a $1.8 billion slush fund for lawbreaking supporters - was reported for likely insider trading worth nearly $1 billion All of the obvious things to say about this are true. It's bad. Nobody even tries to defend it. The closest thing to a defense you get is something about how "but Democrats suck" and "woke was also bad," which is not a defense, but rather a kind of moral blank check made out to the administration to give them the right to do anything. But what I'm most curious about is whether this sort of lurid corruption creates a countermovement that successfully returns government to rule of law or whether it's establishing a norm of executive imperialism that every future administration will use to achieve its ends, which can always be justified by the moral blank check of "the other side is worse, so let us do whatever we want."

We need a new document that AI labs should release with each new model, besides the model card: a sort of changelog I want to see how & in what way the new model changes, breaks, or improves at a range of individual tasks compared to the earlier models. Increasingly important!

Actually it’s worse: a private company now has incredibly powerful zero-day exploits of almost every software project you’ve ever heard of, and the government is telling *basically every major firm in the economy* not to work with them. Historians will gasp at the idiocy.

Congratulations to Dr. Nathan Mesfin on being selected as the ATS CC Assembly Early Career highlight for April 2026! Dr. Mesfin's work focuses on decision making around DNR orders, CPR, and palliative care utilization. craftprd1.blob.core.windows.…

I think this one needs no further explanation.

Be prepared, there is a small chance that our horrendous leadership could unknowingly lead us into World War III.

Data cleaning is as important as the formalization of a hypothesis into a statistical test Said another way- data cleaning and study design are fundamentally intertwined

Reassuringly, an independent parallel cohort showed similar findings insight.jci.org/articles/vie…. Ultimately, prospective validation / a clinical trial will be needed.
