Meet our new English budgie! Like his brother Kiwi, he has a few unusual quirks, but we think heโ€™s perfect!

Now this little peanut needs a nameโ€ฆ He arrived as โ€œMoeโ€ so thatโ€™s a possibility, but what would you name this sweet boy?



Of all the stupid things that this regime has done, this is right up near the top. Postdoctoral researchers come to the US on H-1B visas. This will further destroy the US science enterprise. Stupid stupid stupid.

Fediverse! I need some help!

I have a fellowship to go to Aotearoa New Zealand for a few weeks, and also an offer of an additional fellowship to give lectures around NZ. This is INCREDIBLY EXCITING!!

...but I have a lot of animals! And it's going to be during Saskatchewan winter! The potential farm sitters I've reached out to locally have all fallen through, so I need help to find someone.

Not sure if I should put out an actual farm sitting job ad here? Or if there are better places to try?



The 35th First Annual Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony was held this week with lots of interesting winners.

My favourite study:

Daniele Dendi, Gabriel H. Segniagbeto, Roger Meek, and Luca Luiselli, for studying the extent to which a certain kind of lizard chooses to eat certain kinds of pizza.

Now I know what to feed my lizard! (if I had one)

What a beautiful lizard!
They eat pizza, you say? ;-D

It has been the honor of my work life to serve the people of Colorado as a professor at CU Boulder, and to have my colleagues' supportโ€”today, with a medal recognizing tenure. I'm wearing a sweater from my grandfather, an earlier Prof. Schneider.

@alwirtes Yep, good observation! That's Cicero, "Who Knows Only His Own Generation Remains Always a Child." It was suggested by President Norlin at our university, who stood up against the KKK's efforts to fire Catholic and Jewish faculty.

So those are some good marching orders.

Anyone (academic / researcher) had recent experience with submitting to #ScienceAdvances (science.org/journal/sciadv)? Good or bad?

My instinct is that most MPs just aren't going to understand any of this. However there has been a lot of younger blood since the last election and there are quite a few MPs who either identify as gamers or have enough knowledge of the industry to guide the debate.

Entirely friendly intended suggestion: please consider KDE instead of GNOME.
I believe there are several advantages, such as for example that people who are only used to Windows, or even macOS, would probably feel like the much higher similarity to KDE by default making the first or infrequent use easier.

Thanks for your invaluable efforts!
