UNC schools of data science and information science to merge, forming unnamed β€˜School of AI’ SDSS Dean Stanley Ahalt will be made dean of the new school while SILS Dean Jeffrey Bardzell will stand as the University’s Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer and Vice Provost for AI.

artificial is the perfect adjective for UN leadership's 'intelligence.' What a bunch of shitbags.

WATCH: Trump’s lawless Ice goons shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper ball. Completely out of control.

Just spitballing here, but if you're worried about the reaction of a guy if you don't give him the Nobel Peace Prize, YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE GIVING HIM THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE.

after reading a ton of trial reports, whether a study is industry funded versus academic can almost perfectly predict whether there is a CONSORT diagram....which i think is weird.

I am reading a trial in a certain journal and it just absolutely floors me that the methods come AFTER the references and a full list of all the very important trial authors. WTH?

The worst part is that none of this completely horrendous bullshit will ever impact their elite standing. Apparently there is no amount of knee bending, fraud, and horrible associations that can change that.

They're zip tying kids to each other

What do you call a country that kidnaps people, including children, & puts them in concentration camps, many of whom then disappear?

How would you describe a nation whose government gleefully roughs up reporters & disappears people who it simply dislikes?

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this β€” pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks β€” they would be sued into oblivion.

Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

Rescue teams in Gaza

Rescue teams in Gaza

"No dataset can truly capture the suffering of colleagues killed while doing their job, of hospitals reduced to rubble, or of patients left without care."

These research authors describe how their study on war injuries in Gaza was born out of necessity

It is actually peak absurdity that we still have people arguing that voters should bend to the positions of their political representatives instead of the other way around.

Radical idea that people running for office tell you their priorities and values and you vote based on that instead of them just telling you what they think you want to hear.

Being anti vaccines for babies is one of the surest signs of a declining civilisation. There could be no clearer evidence on childhood vaccination saving lives and preserving health and yet we’re being distracted by debating this issue.

So many people, for some reason, refuse to learn from history, and allow it to repeat itself, can we change that disturbing fact?

I don’t know…

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

A thought I keep returning to β€” and that’s underscored by today’s news β€” is that a legacy publication or a deep-pocketed investor could hire an astonishing array of talent right now and make the best newspaper in America overnight.
