@cfchyba Congratulations!!!

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

@zhaot2005 @Princeton @CarnegieEndow We are humbled and honored to welcome you. Genuinely curious and excited to see what we can accomplish together.

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

The jury statement ... I like it a lot. Thank you all!

#OnTheMorningYouWake won the award for best XR Experience at #SXSW2022. Congrats to the creative team at @ArchersMark and @AtlasVcorp. And yes ... This would have been nothing without @jamaicaosorio, who gave the piece its powerful and unforgettable voice.

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

Curious about the road ahead. As Jamaica said: "Maybe, just maybe, the world may not have to end, again, tomorrow." Thanks to @ARTEfr, @OculusVRforGood, and many others; it went so much further than we could ever have imagined.

@russianforces @tamara_patton I worry that your customers will happily agree to the first part of your proposal (moving things into storage, no inspections), but then "forget" about the other parts where fissile material is actually eliminated or becoming available for safeguards at a meaningful rate. (2/2)

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

@russianforces I've seen these reports. ;-) Leaving aside for now the question about the need for perimeter control (@tamara_patton and I wrote a paper about that, https://t.co/fq6QCPqm7W), ... (1/2)

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

Finally, I believe, abandoning transparency and discouraging accountability is not where we ought to be going. (5/5)

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

Worth discussing/considering, but there are (at least) two things I worry about if we went in this direction: ... (1/5)

[Pavel Podvig @russianforces]

Here is an idea for post-New START US-Russia treaty. One of the problems is that US wants to cover "all warheads." As Raybkov said at a recent @TheGCSP event, US actually refuses to make a distinction between strategic and non-strategic weapons 1/8

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

Second, since you don't limit or even count non-deployed weapons, I imagine you also don't expect parties to declare their numbers. Such a scheme seems prone to all sides working with worst-case assumptions. I can see few incentives for further reductions going forward. (4/5)

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

... soon enough, we will be having a debate about the “need” to restart HEU or HALEU production b/c now we have all this new naval fuel demand for the growing AUSUK fleet. Another major setback the efforts to minimize fissile material inventories and production. (2/2)

[Alex Glaser @alxglaser]

One aspect of #AUSUK that hasn't received much attention: It’s hard to imagine that the US Navy would offer tons of HEU --or down-blended high-assay LEU (HALEU) for that matter-- for the Australian subs. Justified or not, ... (1/2)

[Pavel Podvig @russianforces]

Everybody is looking at Natanz, nobody looking at Dimona...
