Incredible statement from the American Meteorological Organization. It takes a lot for a scientific organization to issue a statement like this:

"U.S. leadership in scientific innovation is at risk due to the recent and ongoing reductions in U.S. federal science capabilities. The consequences to the American people will be large and wide-ranging, including increased vulnerability to hazardous weather...Recent terminations within the government workforce for science are likely to cause irreparable harm and have far-reaching consequences for public safety, economic well-being, and the United States’ global leadership."

@spaf you are mean spirited and cruel and I'd like to subscribe to your newsletter.

@waxbanks you gave up the chance to be the man who coined the term "mastobating". Luckily I am not as mature as you.

@waxbanks the ritual "speaking from unceded $TRIBE land" thing is a good vaccination against self righteousness if it isn't taken further than that. Problem is that it is taken further than that.

Trump will likely get angry and take it out on Elon if he hears about us all referring to Musk as the real President — the one with the brains. So, don’t post that everywhere

@mmalc @eyeroll @petergleick A more cost effective approach is to put timers on loads like your freezer and AC so they do the bulk of the work at midday.

Hmm. Can't get a feed on this server right now. Should I be moving to another node?

@glyph @feoh @lobsters the size is the point. Keeping obnoxious behavior out of a site the size of HN is next to impossible.
