Dan Goodin<p>A prominent computer scientist who has spent 20 years publishing academic papers on cryptography, privacy, and cybersecurity has gone incommunicado, had his professor profile, email account, and phone number removed by his employer Indiana University, and had his homes raided by the FBI. No one knows why.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/XiaofengWang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>XiaofengWang</span></a> Xiaofeng Wang</p><p><a href="https://arstechnica.com/security/2025/03/computer-scientist-goes-silent-after-fbi-raid-and-purging-from-university-website/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">arstechnica.com/security/2025/</span><span class="invisible">03/computer-scientist-goes-silent-after-fbi-raid-and-purging-from-university-website/</span></a></p>

(((Cindy Weinstein)))<p>You read that right. 75% of scientists are considering leaving the US. Forgive me (not really) if I'm struggling to understand exactly how this is making the US anything other than diminished, stupid, and ill.</p><p><a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00938-y" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nature.com/articles/d41586-025</span><span class="invisible">-00938-y</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/NSF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NSF</span></a> <br><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/NIH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NIH</span></a> <br><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a><br><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a></p>

Nowhere Girl<p>I find it weird how many people refuse to believe we live in a racial and gender caste system whose wealthy white nobility control both major political parties. </p><p>White Americans are so heavily propagandized and so inclined to go along because they think they're proximal to power.</p>
Aaron J. Waltke<p>There’s an ongoing joke in Star Trek where replicator food is considered inferior to hand prepared meals.</p><p>Replicator rations are perfectly balanced, produce exactly what asked for down to the molecule. Nothing more, nothing less. </p><p>But it is soulless.</p><p>Anyway, thinking about AI.</p>

Eugen Rochko<p>I have to say, I am really disappointed Devin Townsend's <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TheMoth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TheMoth</span></a> featured AI-generated art projections. They were uncanny and distracting at best even if you look past the ethics of it. And now it's occupying my mind and distracting me from talking about the actual music of his 10 years in the making project...</p>
