Gotta wander these days if these are Republican appointed “scientists” (assuming US source)

Not sure if this is relevant but would be interesting to see what words have high cosine similarity with "Trump" in different pre-trained LLMs

It’s not like they are going to read it. They just learned from the last round of mass-firings that they will get sued if they lie about firing people for performance reasons. Now they will have plausible deniability when lying about firing people for performance reasons.

“The complaint filed late Wednesday says the employees were sent standardized notices of termination, drafted by OPM, that falsely stated that the terminations were for performance reasons.“ - https://apnews.com/article/federal-employees-firing-lawsuit-trump-probation-unions-4a9384c21e408df85ca17dfac5b9dc93

Who would have thought the Zelensky would become the leader of the free world

I agree with the point that most Arab nations have accepted that Israel is here to stay. That said, as long as Israel is consistently attacked by terrorist organizations along multiple borders, not to mention the hostages, means that the fear for its existence has yet to run its course. I hope to never hear of the far-right Israeli government again, nothing more to add here. I believe the Palestinians are more likely to achieve their statehood if they also normalize their relations with Israel, accept Israel's existence, denounce Hamas and other terrorist organizations, and give up on the idea of a right of return (I understand this last point is highly controversial). I don't agree that there's a genocidal colonial project in Palestine and I still think that a peaceful co-existence is possible. Both sides must negotiate in good faith and accept concession.

I agree, lasting peace would has to start with not wanting to wipe the other side off the map. Hopefully one day we will agree that it is the Palestinians that must accept the existence of Israel. Hamas’ ideology is simple: “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it”.

Wouldn't be surprised if Putin's Russians executed Ukrainian POWs and then started looking for alibi opportunities
