My office received a report that an international graduate student at the University of Minnesota was arrested by ICE officers on Thursday. We immediately contacted ICE to request information about the nature of this arrest. The University of Minnesota confirmed that they did not have any prior knowledge of or involvement in the arrest. My office is in communication with the individual’s counsel, the University of Minnesota, and other elected officials. I will provide updates as soon as I am able.

Per @darbysaxbe, from a program officer at the National Science Foundation, federal grants can now be pulled for containing any of these keywords. Absurd and dangerous

I do not think American workers have a culture problem. I do think American corporations have a culture problem. Since 1978, CEO pay has skyrocketed 1,085%. American workers are fed up and are saying “enough.” Meanwhile, workers on H-1B visas have strict employment rules that limits their ability to leave their employers, which opens them up to exploitation: lower pay and more outrageous productivity goals. This is about corporations squeezing every last penny out of anyone and anything they can.

The Datasaurus Dozen is a collection of thirteen datasets that, despite having nearly identical summary statistics—such as mean, variance, and correlation—exhibit vastly different distributions when visualized. This underscores the critical importance of graphing data to uncover underlying patterns that summary statistics alone may obscure. #Statistics #DataScience #Research #Science

Your eminent scientists can't write the formula for carbon dioxide.
Professors, Nobel Laureates and 1,000 scientists say: There is no climate emergency Not what the selfish eco zealots making fortunes want to hear

When I was found guilty of murder & sentenced to 26 years, I lost all hope that the truth of my innocence would ever matter. The prison put me on suicide watch. It was shortly thereafter that I received a curious letter from a psychology professor. /🧵
