@BreezyRMR1996 @gravitontensor @WUTangKids No, SCOTUS literally just ruled that detaining US citizens based on race and occupation is okay. The lawsuit they ruled on was brought by US citizens who were arrested and then let go by ICE. SCOTUS literally said race-based arrests are okay

The GRS and accompanying GRC are a great place for PhD students and postdocs to broaden their network and present research. They are intentionally kept small and foster great discussions. It is one of my favorite conferences and we would love to see you there!

Applications for a talk at the GRS on Quantitative Genetics and Genomics are due November 10, 2024 (in 2 days!!). We are still looking for more graduate students and postdocs to attend. Applications for poster-only attendance are due January 18th. https://t.co/azWJfMDDXM

@Delta I get that you have to cancel flights, but why didn't I even get so much as an email informing me of the cancellation? Is that really the standard for customer service now?

What does the average person do on the morning of their defense? I can't tell if I should go work out or read a book or drink a cup of coffee (probably not that last one though)

@3rdreviewer That sounds like a great way to get your mind off of the seminar and to celebrate afterward!

I love how the entire campaign of George Santos was just the plot of The Producers. The guy must have been terrified on election night when the numbers came back in.

@Zeniticist @harlyjaned I learned that you can encourage flower growth by putting the cacti in colder air! We had one that wouldn't flower and was told to put it next to the window where it was colder and it worked like a dream

@ClementYChow I mean, it will lead to inequities in the same way that having a policy that require you pay undergrads leads to inequities.

@ChiddleronARoof @rjfaber91 @jdmrc93 @the_transit_guy Apples and oranges. A dedicated, high speed rail is not going to have basically any of these problems and would be much faster than a car, while having the potential to be less expensive than a plane or even a rental car and being much more comfortable than either.

Ah yes, avoid crossing a picket line by crossing a picket line. Why didn’t I think of that!
