I had a meeting with a few folks over at the Treasury earlier this week and this topic came up.
We got some chads at the Treasury Department who have some ideas to make 2026 a lot smoother.
Iโm genuinely impressed at the team Secretary Bessent has assembled.

Part of the reason why I did not want to do grad school in physics.
How is it that universities student tuition rates have gone up 3x in 10 years, but postdocs are still getting paid around the same rates as they were in 2013?
How is this even remotely competitive for American research and science? We do know China pays way more for this and wants top researchers in the public sector driving innovation right?

I think Iโm going to enjoy the era of federal agencies embracing shit posting on social media.

TIL "America" comes from the latinized first name of Amerigo Vespucci, the first explorer to contradict Columbus's claim that the land was part of Asia.

there's an interesting dance between the sprawled logistics and scale of data validation, as well as the depth of interests in national policy like the Genesis Mission.
may just be crazy enough to work, if there's secure diffusion of BSL-2/3 facilities for wet-lab validation, as well as open-source iteration of Berkeley's A-Lab for materials validation.

Are the tariffs a part of a grand plan to bare a short term recession in exchange for refinancing our national debt when the fed is forced to cut rates and some re-industrialization of these United States?
Or did we YOLO it?
