The National Park has ordered ordinary exhibits about women, Blacks, and workers to be taken down in a completely nonsensical erasure of American history. Historians must fight back.

Coming for tenure and academics is what dictators and fascists have always done.

Deskilling. Ai is underdeveloped, underperforming, and supresses students from acquiring the very skills they are in school to develop. Speak out at your schools.

CFP for those working in pseudoscience and pseudohistory

The descientificization of America targetting Democratic regions is a deliberate measure to sabotage the local and state economies will have longlasting negative effects on employment, and ripple effects on housing, schools, tax revenue, and satellite businesses, including mom and pop shops.

This disinvestment in education, also occuring in the U.S., is similar to deindustrialization. The mass layoffs, the unemployment, the job mismatch, the local impact on housing, and the ripple effect on businesses are what I call (deliberate) deemployment and deeducation.

Trump's war on history As America's 250th anniversary approaches, the president wants to control the country's future by bulldozing its past.

The American war on history and historians is concerning to the entire profession. Other countries have suffered similar attacks and the supression of their histories.

The loss of a free & independent press is occurring because players have bought up newspapers NOT to be in the business of journalism but to use outlets to influence policies which make profits for their OTHER businesses. Strengthening former ownership laws is the only way to guarantee a free press.

It is a legitimate site legally mandated by the Court. I have high security and do not receive any such alerts.

AI is not a peer, so it can’t do peer review If we still believe that science is a vocation grounded in argument, curiosity and care, we can’t delegate judgement to machines, says Akhil Bhardwaj

'to treat peer review as a throughput problem is to misunderstand what is at stake. Review is not simply a production stage in the research pipeline; it is one of the few remaining spaces where the scientific community talks to itself.' 1/3

Black lung is adorable. So is coal's history of worker exploitation, accidents, and child labour.

I am currently reading philosophers and ethicists analyzing 'bullshit' (as distinct from lies/lying). It is relevant to my work on pseudohistory and "AI."
