Just talked to Governor DeWine about a possible August election. Despite opposition to an August election from Ohio elections officials, he says he'll sign a bill to create it if lawmakers approve it. More on that later.

Given his remarks about “TruthGPT,” I’m horrified at the possibility that any of his thoughts on AI will be taken seriously by anyone in any position of power.

All 5 New College professors going up for tenure were denied today, despite approval from the college's faculty and previous administration. Every academic should be paying attention to what's happening there, now. Florida is very likely your future. https://t.co/9ZyvU7meyP

@drlostcauses If the lake at my family’s cottage in Michigan had been filled with those things, I’m not sure I would have gone near the water

It has been an amazing run at @FiveThirtyEight but I was laid off today. I have deeply loved working on this team. My editors and coworkers past and present have been amazing and I have done so much work at this site that I am incredibly proud of. Anybody need a science writer?

@NateMJensen @FOS City and state governments do some odd things, and I understand why they’d want to spend money to attract or retain professional sports franchises, but I’m always amazed at the staggering sums they’ll put up.

@UniofOxford What a delightful trip! Great student questions, stimulating conversations with #StathisKalyvas, an @anneapplebaum talk, and the chance to chat with the speaker after dinner at the High Table. @UniofOxford set an awfully high bar for the rest of us.

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

Prepping for a talk at All Souls College at @UniofOxford today, on the subject of the decline-of-war debate and what comes next. Hard to focus on the presentation in the midst of all this incredible architecture.

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

@anbusch @UniofOxford Thank you!

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

@JordanMBecker @UniofOxford That’s right! And dear God that means you read both of them, I’m so sorry

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

@JordanMBecker @UniofOxford Ah, that explains the positive review! I benefitted from the association with grandeur 😂

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

@Noahpinion Very cool.

And I’m not squeamish, but that image really should have a content warning, or ideally be replaced with one, because damn.

Sen. Cirino announces that there were more than 500 testimonies submitted in opposition to SB 83. We're being told that's a Senate record! Incredible!

OK. I've updated this story a lot. We've got former GOP Govs. Bob Taft, John Kasich and former Dem Govs Celeste, Ted Strickland, all opposed to the 60% threshold for Ohio constitutional amendments. https://t.co/mG3tItx6Tv

Whoa, bad day to be a host of a cable news show

[Bear Braumoeller @Prof_BearB]

@sbmitche It’s hard to reduce false positives without inducing false negatives. Bummer tho.

[Jordan Becker @JordanMBecker]

Few people in the West have heard of Basij - but they might be the most important group in Iran.

Excited to present my research on how US policy inadvertently fueled their rise. Join us virtually tomorrow for OSU's 2023 Military Frontiers Symposium!
