Terrence Tao might consider leaving the US. The assault on science and research is generationally damaging for the United States. He’s more than aware of it but honestly, this is not a problem that’s tractable by mathematical mind.
The realities are the wealthiest men in the US and in the world are intent on dismantling the United States and everything that’s going on including the shut down, works to that purpose

Windows 11 is, well, shit. But, Windows is modular, and pretty much everything can be removed or modified with the right tools and knowhow.
Here's a 23 minute special showing how to un-enshittify Windows 11 from stock install to finish, using open source and/or completely free tools.

Hoy me he visto ‘Mentes peligrosas’ (1995) con mi madre.
Tengo varios problemas con el género de películas profe-se-hace-con-clase-problemática, aparte de lo cansino por repetitivo que se me hace el tópico.
El principal es que su mensaje es profundamente individualista. Se da por hecho que el sistema (las instituciones educativas) va mal, y se ve con ojos negativos, pero la solución no es colectiva, sino individual: el/la profe-coraje es quien lo va a conseguir gracias a... su vocación.
El concepto de vocación tiene un origen religioso. Max Weber, en ‘Ética protestante y espíritu del capitalismo’, explica cómo este concepto se volcó en una ética del trabajo. Dicho simple: se nos dice que nos autorrealizaremos como seres humanos subordinando toda nuestra vida a nuestra “misión” laboral.
Y así ocurre en estas películas: profesores sin vida personal fuera del trabajo, que hasta ponen de su propio dinero —¡y esto se representa como una virtud!— para compensar la falta de recursos en las escuelas. Sacrificando todo por “vocación” se hacen dignos de la admiración del espectador y, supuestamente, de los alumnos, que por primera vez se sienten tenidos en cuenta.
En estas películas, los profesores protagonistas no se sindican, su “lucha” se limita a sacar adelante a *su* grupo de alumnos. Aparentemente, todos los demás profesores son incompetentes, autoritarios o apáticos. No parece que existan asociaciones de profesores que se forman y se organizan colectivamente para construir estrategias juntos.
Este es el modelo ideal de profesor: el que se deja la piel y es más admirable cuanto más ascético sea —no se queja de sus condiciones laborales o su salario, sacrifica su vida y recursos personales en pos de su trabajo—.

A photograph shows a scene on a residential street, with several people surrounding a dark-colored sedan. Three individuals wearing camouflage and tactical gear are kneeling around the open driver's side door, appearing to be assisting a person lying on the ground near the car. Another person, wearing a blue shirt and beige pants, stands nearby watching the scene. A person in a green shirt and khaki pants is standing behind them, and a person in tactical gear with a helmet is kneeling on the ground to the right. The photograph appears to be taken during the daytime, with houses and foliage visible in the background.
The text superimposed on the image reads: “US citizen, 67, ‘has ribs broken’ by Border Patrol agents after being dragged out of car while driving home.”

@ginaintheburg A photograph shows a scene on a residential street, with several people surrounding a dark-colored sedan. Three individuals wearing camouflage and tactical gear next to the open driver's side door are kneeling on the back of a man who is lying face down, as is clearly evident from the direction his feet are sticking out, obviously cuffing him. Another person, wearing a blue plaid shirt and khaki pants, stands nearby watching the scene.
