Thank you to the bad boys of science for letting me come on and rant about scientific funding
Sam Gregson@Samuel_Gregson · Jun 3Debunking more terrible physics with @TimHenke9 and @Liv_Lanes .
Many online influencers are increasingly extolling the virtues of venture capital in science.
Today: does science function better when privately funded?
We see a lot of issues!

Can someone just figure out how to kill all the ticks already.
I would trade literally every LLM and every “builder in the arena” to never see another tick again in my life.
Get on this.

JJ Zachariason@LateRoundQB · Apr 22I haven't lived in Pittsburgh in about 16 years, but I grew up there and went to Pitt. If you're there for the draft, there are three things I think you should see/experience:
1. The Strip District. Just experience it. You can go to Primanti Bros there, too, if you want.
2. Ride the incline. The top of Mt. Washington is really cool. The best view of the city is at the West End Overlook. (Maybe a Yinzer will debate me on this.)
3. Pitt's campus isn't downtown, but it's not super far. Go see the Cathedral of Learning. I've taken friends there and their minds were blown that it's a real place. #Hail2Pitt
There are loads of other things, and those three places definitely hold a special place for me — I was married at a church in the Strip, went to Pitt, etc. But they're cool and unique to the city.

Learning is not a race and slowing down to fully comprehend topics is good, actually
Jack@Jackkk · Feb 24MrBeast explains why the education system is completely broken
“Why are students today being taught the same way their parents were? Look at how much everything else has advanced. When I was in school the teacher would just stand there, read out of a book and write on a whiteboard”
"Now look at Mark Rober’s videos. You can learn complex topics in 20 minutes in a way that’s engaging, fun and you retain it. Just because our parents were taught one way doesn’t mean we need to keep teaching that same way. It makes no sense to me, I think education should be reformed dramatically”
“Students spend so much time in school. If we had real courses made through videos, made learning more hands on and optimised everything with modern technology, kids could probably learn more in 5 hours than they currently do in 8 hours"

This unbelievably bad
Dr. Catharine Young@DrCatharineY · Jan 27We’ve lost over 10,000 STEM PhDs from the federal workforce in a single year.
10,000.
Never thought the U.S. would ever allow this type of brain drain to occur - but here we are.

I know everyone is already dunking on this guy and applauding Kai Cenat (as they should! )
But I wanted to also point out, it is never too late to learn something that interests you.
